The Secret To Stop Chunking Your Irons | Good Good Labs

[@joshbranton4375]

Grant is the best thing to happen to Good Good, he has done so much to help all of their games and ours lol. Keep up the good work all of you!!!

[@Consistently]

Straight facts! Grant is an awesome dude

[@gamingdekap]

Thanks for diagnosing my recent chunks without even looking at my swing. This is why I love good good.

[@Drouse1986]

Dude. Cannot thank you enough for the content from the GoodGood family! I just got into golf this last summer at 36 years old. Perk of this late interest is that I have MANY friends who are welcoming me into golf… best part is their old gear. 😂 many of which share my passion of baseball. While I DO think it helps having that kind of background (maybe simply because if you like the feeling of smashing a baseball… just wait until you get that same feeling with a golf ball! The eye-hand coordination is there already, just have to rework your swing.) These instructional videos are the greatest! Always so excited to disappoint myself at the course when attempting them in real-time. 😂 I’m at the point in my game where I don’t keep score and just want to focus on getting decent and hopefully/eventually good strikes of the ball. I feel that since I’m such a novice that I feel that form/technique is the most important thing to learn. Ball flight and direction will matter after that. 😂

[@Hammerstrength118]

Grant is the testament to how when you coach you are learning twice! His game is nice! Keep it up man

[@seattlenation3906]

Love what you guys are doing for the good good community. Its like you actually care about how we play !!! GOAT STATUS

[@cizneerob]

Grant, you are the MAN. Top notch content as always. Would the Good Good squad ever consider doing some kind of sweepstakes for a subscriber to get lessons and shoot a round with you gents? Could do great things for engagement numbers. Cheers

[@929mmr]

Great stuff. When I chunk two in a row I really stomp down on my left side at the top or slightly before the top and that gets me shifted and through the ball like Grant talks about. I know a lot of people think it is because they take their eye off the ball or that their head moves but the vast majority of the time it is one of those two things that Grant talks about.

[@edcooper5633]

Thanks Grant, love the Good Good content. Your straight forward teaching style is refreshing. Thanks to you and the Good Good Gang for making an investment in our games. We’re glad you’re there!

[@davissmith1559]

The way Micah got cut off 😂😂😭 seemed kinda personal lol

[@12thDeagleDave]

Especially how they kept his couple words in the video lmao

[@Thomas-hf3dn]

Matt’s follow through is still the nicest one in good good to me

[@BrandonHaynesGolf]

Grant just gotta say thanks brother. That baseball video made the mechanics of the golf swing click for me and now I have a swing change to go through but I’m getting more distance and striking the ball better than ever!!

[@larrybethune3909]

Mega! Nice. Thanks. Love the slo-mo shot starting at 2:07. You see your wight shift from the ground up. Very interesting (said like Col. Klink).

[@camrogan1727]

I LOVE the hogans hero’s reference! I see nothing!!

[@kadenoberlander2548]

Never clicked on a video so fast you guys are the best -Highschool golfer

[@Adam-M]

Towel drill is one of my favorites when I notice the bottom of my swing path isn’t quite on point. Super simple and cheap yet also very effective. Great video!

[@Alex.overseas]

I love this channel. A simple thing that helped my striking A LOT was to start targeting the ground 1 inch ahead of the ball (on iron shots). I was aiming right behind the ball before, which caused me to contact the ground before the ball, even with a good swing plane.

[@leonardomontalvo1417]

How do you aim in front of the ball out of curiosity?

[@coleb1567]

Loved this video and also love when you bring tig into the vids. Really appreciate learning from the both of you

[@grantkelderman6314]

Just got new iron and this helped me so much

[@chaka1045]

Falling back in my swing is 100% the reason for me chunking it. Thanks grant👍👍

[@josephbuehler1081]

Awesome tip. Gonna try this. Cant wait. Thank you guys

[@opgolf7136]

What's a good drill to stop thining well to reduce thining

[@andrewlukacs3393]

Definitely a problem I have! I love these videos I feel like your talking to me every time

[@jkmurphy3]

Nice tips. Also, you could direct your eyes to focus on an inch after the ball, toward the hole. This can result in the same improvement.

[@SnickersKaminski]

Can you do a video on how to hit up on the driver. Ever since I’ve been hitting good divots on my iron shots I struggle to hit up on my driver. Keep up the amazing content and thanks Grant for the amazing lessons

[@thecringegolfer]

Guilty of the ,"coming too far from the inside" chunk shank. When I get on that, this is exactly what I do and works.

[@DnDAnalysis]

I 100% scoop my irons. I hit them a mile high and 30 yards short of what I think they should be. Going to try this!

[@robwilson9502]

Great drill! Question that i have is , Where are your eyes focused for impact? Back side of ball or front side or someplace else?

[@stuartwisbey8687]

Must have watched this twenty times, love this drill!

[@scottedwards8006]

Hey Grant love these tips, would you be able to do one on drills to help not hit toe and heal strikes.

[@jaredgriffin5200]

I am new to golf and I love these videos!

[@treyv623]

Awesome video! Have struggled with hitting behind the ball. Any tips/video on compressing the ball and hitting it before the ground?

[@alaindaoust7596]

GREAT info G Rant!! i suggest you have Bubbie on next episode explaining aim/direction! He got his game back in order and still aims the WRONG way all the time hahahahha

[@angelgarcia24]

Does this towel thing work with long irons too?

[@kevinconnolly754]

yeah I'd like an answer to that as well👍

[@liamthegreat22]

This video was very helpful. I have the huge problem of sinking my weight back n chunking. Any chance in a upcoming video, can you talk about the legs and stability. Sometimes my legs get fidgety (sort of like bubbie when he plays) and i often make myself unbalanced. What are some tips to stay in a good golf stance through the entirety of the swing?

[@WTPFirearms]

Please..a video on compressing the ball. Thx sir.

[@holy.water.]

my swing for the past couple months has been way too far in-to-out, so I chunk/thin it pretty often. this drill might actually be perfect for me!!

[@danielmcinnis6221]

Fire video once again! Gonna use this at the range

[@Frostekzz]

Needed this one. My interaction with the ground is terrible.

[@joemulroy7028]

Great drill loving these videos!

[@richardboag8827]

Just came back from a frustrating range session 98% fat shots with maybe 2-3 pure hits...soo aggravating

[@michaelkiore8146]

Chur to the Good Good Golf awesome work guys love the house...

[@DPRPRODUCTIONS1]

grant after watching this video i learned a lot. my question is I also watch your long iron video, so at which club do i\I start to go from sweeping the ball to hitting more taking the divot just in front of the ball. thanks from possibly one of your newest and possibly oldest subscriber at 59 years old. love good good and I'm self taught hacker for many years trying to fix my game as I get old. currently 25 handicap. 6'4" 239lbs

[@rustyshackelford5758]

you guys should do a vid on swaying. My game is night and day after fixing my sway. I was topping and chunking my irons every other shot before

[@jeffkooienga6515]

But Matt's socks? with slides? You do you man! Great lesson, gonna try this for sure as I am 50/50 on my shots and fat hits.

[@stevebranchgolfer]

Nice quick pointer !

[@stephenshannon52]

Do one for topping the ball! I can’t stop topping the ball or hitting the bottom of the club on the centre of the ball. Desperate for a drill to fix it.

[@ExactBrah]

Can you do a video on thin shots next?

[@ChadKalten0523]

Solid video! Love the content

[@Travelguy_nw]

I love your guy’s content but the mismatched socks killed me 😂

[@taylordiaz2805]

About to try this at the range!

[@stuartgannon3366]

pretty sure he actually hits the towel at 3:03, still makes great contact though. my issue is hitting the towel on the takeaway, no idea what that means

[@cameronwilliams7372]

Can Matt elaborate what he means by "casting"? I feel like i also have that issue. Am i supposed to keep my wrist semi-cocked (may be the wrong way to say that)

[@yeahSureiGuess]

It means throwing your hands at the ball instead of rotating your body through the ball.

[@CC-tw6su]

You should do a video about the different putting grips.

[@Chucksterz-]

Thank you sir! Great video

[@DLORandom]

Can you make a video on fairway bunkers, like the 120 yard bunker shot.

[@toddcogan2649]

I need a video on wrist hinge and keeping the club face squared!!

[@jakebrand5379]

I’ve been waiting for this one! Let’s gooo

[@zhuokanli1788]

Weight transfer is the key to strike the ball solid, I think that's the main reason for fat shot. Also the sway during the swing could also causes the fat shot as well. Personal experience

[@texasplaysgames8196]

Can you do a video on how to fix topping the ball, I top it more than I hit it fat.

[@905kadin5]

It's the same reason... this fixes tops and chunks lol...

[@coopermckinnon5552]

Can you do a video on how to keep your head still I’m starting to get back into tournament golf and I struggle keeping it still

[@pedroayala7100]

Does the towel drill work with the long irons 2 3 4

[@jordanwilliams9317]

The secret to not chunk irons is to hit off the mats. What a breakthrough

[@larrysmith8002]

Thanks guys. Can we get some current "what's in the bag" vids?

[@sandovalsbco]

can you do a video on uphill , downhill, left/right slope lies. videos are great guys keep it up.

[@charlesprovencher6918]

I have the opposite issue, I hit 3 to 6 inches behind the ball with my irons

[@andrewjoseph5619]

Goats couples a gems

[@leealbert9182]

Is there a reason you folded the towel to make it higher or is it okay to put the towel flat in the ground?

[@andrewmyers5016]

Love these videos🤙

[@brandonwatts5667]

Is it acceptable to make contact with the ball but not take a divot? I make solid contact on most shots but never take a divot after the ball

[@CallMeJackWagon]

Does this dude ever NOT have a smile on his face? :)

[@jw152]

Wait…my man’s sending lasers in his socks! I’m here for it! ☠️

[@Dwim]

Thank you Grant. -the world

[@SchimmeySharted]

You should do a video on drills for your lower body

[@codycook9610]

Where do you look at on the ball when you're at address? At the middle or back of the ball. Front? I've never really paid attention to it and I'm curious as to if there's a common spot or just personal preference?

[@method341]

Upper backside of the ball

[@zareh805]

Nice swing Matt.

[@ryanknight3407]

Video on posture/distance from ball

[@pierrehirsch5233]

Can you post a video on how to hit "down" on the ball? Thanks

[@method341]

You're not meant to try to hit down on the ball intentionally. This swing thought screwed up my golf swing for years. Just try and rotate through the ball. The divot occurs because you're releasing the club through the ball, not because you are trying to hit down on it.

[@TLHockeyCards]

I usually hit my Irons pure without taking a divot. I haven't felt comfortable trying to hit ball first yet. Am I losing distance this way?

[@timnelcin8717]

Yes but if you're dialed on the distance with your irons not taking divots then keep doing it

[@joshrigdon633]

Shout out to Matt for the mismatch socks!

[@brandobisicchiagolf]

can i send my swing in for some tips?

[@MikeSeagroves]

@goodgoodextra what shoes are you wearing?

[@oceanyt8]

How many inches between the towel and the ball ?

[@JonasPraem]

if u chunk it to that towel, its not a fat shot, its a hole in the ground and a missed ball. If you practice not hitting 'fat' then dont hit off mats, they can sortoff disguise ur chunks

[@DoubleOhTheG]

I definitely would love some drills to counter an inside out path. That's definitely my problem with all my clubs

[@krejjsi]

Was my problem also. Put an alignment stick in to the grip of your club. In the backswing make sure the stick is pointing towards the ball, also in the start of your downswing. This will feel very steep but trust me, the club will be on path. Hitting my irons pure now 💪🏻

[@MadR0ckCliMa]

Tig I get stuck constantly always at the end of my rounds too

[@Jay-Dubs]

When is there going to be a vid on how to stop thinning shots?

[@slbruneau]

Must be laundry day.....Matt's socks not matching....haha

[@Golfaintdeadtheholesarescared]

So what do I do if I keep hitting the towel. I hit about 50 shots last night hitting the towel every time. Trying different ways to get my weight through first.

[@h.l.4723]

It would be sweet if Nelk and GG collabed on a couple videos. But idk if it’ll work out due to GG being more PG rated and Nelk R rated

[@GP-yc2it]

Get you right heel off the ground before impact, it'll keep you from doing the falling back thing.

[@oliverbrandes5557]

I saw this tip from Paul Wilson, it has helped my game so much.

[@henriksolevagkarlsen8999]

Good video!

[@cobywalker2233]

can yall do how to not pull or hook the ball

[@alexcucinotta4449]

I really want to see how to fix the duck hook

[@dreamsaresharedhere_]

I didn’t even recognize this was Grant at first man he grew up

[@matthewmiller4838]

Shanks next please 🙂

[@stevehouse5665]

I am fine off the mats just seem to be chunking it lately

[@justinnash9460]

What about a drill to help with not casting?

[@_.Dave._]

If you want to learn how to get the Steph Castenada season 1 slice, try this drill.

[@SM-po9wf]

have you done a shank video? That will help me immensely. I know you have to keep you butt behind and not go forward when hitting, but man is it hard to do. Every time I think I have finally understood the swing the shank comes back. its probably the worst shot and feeling in golf.

[@jameskenny7073]

Video on how to stop topping ball please

[@TheJaybird7]

That leaf got destroyed.
