Tom Love this tip. Does it matter how your club face is positioned at address?

[@dave21286]

This has TOTALLY transformed my game - I just wish I would’ve started doing it 30 years ago. The great thing about this is that reinforces your other key points: weight on front foot and lead arm straight. It makes these things happen on their own naturally - thank you!!!

[@SagutoGolf]

AWESOME!! (And better now than another 30 years from now, right Dave? 😎) I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated with you; excellent job incorporating it into your swing!!

Love your videos and tips! I struggle with consistency and it is so easy to roll the right elbow out and up before impact, but it feels so pure when I do keep it connected and tucked. I just need to practice to help it become habit. This feeling and shirt tuck will help. Thanks! 😊

[@SagutoGolf]

I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated with you, and I hope it performs well when you put it into practice! And yes - pulling the upper trail arm into position and then locking it in with the shirt sleeve tuck should really help.

I'm getting back into golf after a 14 year hiatus. I have been watching your videos. Man..thank you for making the golf swing simple to understand. I appreciate you saying that you don't need to think (I overthink everything). My son and I went to the range today, such an improvement in my ball striking. Far more good hits than bad. I appreciate the videos

[@WisdomSpeak1]

Tom, I'm signing your praises on the Reddit golf swing sub. The way I look at it, if you are going to be a recreational golfer and play or practice a few times a month, take moving parts out of the swing. The less moving parts, the less chance for error. And your swing is not only repeatable, but fluid and beautiful. And I may add, basically pain-free! Can't thank you enough!

[@SagutoGolf]

That's awesome!! I sincerely appreciate your kind words as well as your support in other forums, and I'm very glad to know that my instruction is resonating with you Excellent job incorporating it into your swing and putting it into play!!

[@die7fox]

I took this to heart in your golf school, and it really does work. I'm still working on staying down on my shot (I have a tendency to pop up a little in my backswing), but keeping that trail arm tucked and "glued" is money. Trying to apply it to my driver/fairway wood game now!

[@SagutoGolf]

Awesome - I'm very glad to know that the trail arm "magic" is performing well for you!! Feel free to post in the school's Members' Community if you're continue to be challenged with that backswing "pop-up" issue. Oftentimes it can be a result of allowing a little bit of weight transfer into the trail side and/or a a loss of tilt. Keep it glued, keep it crispy, and keep up the great work!! 💪💪 Tom

Thank you so much for your kind words and support - I'm very glad to have you onboard!! Tom

[@michaelpope1710]

This has changed my golf swing for the good!!! I get more distance, more consistent, and less pain to the body. Great video!!!

[@SagutoGolf]

Fantastic! I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated with you, Michael; excellent job incorporating it into your swing and putting it into play. No surprise, by the way, as this is a proven body-friendly method. In addition to my own personal experience as a golfer who previously experienced back pain, this is further validated by the fact that a significant percentage of my students and online school members are in their 60's, 70's, and 80's - i.e.: a smorgasbord of chronic ailments, physical limitations, back/shoulder/knee/hip pain, and joint replacements - and they are overwhelmingly elated to experience the dramatic pain-free game improvement, seemingly effortless power, and resulting enjoyment that this swing affords them. Thanks so much for sharing your ball striking improvements and keep up the great work!! 💪💪 Tom PS: If you've not already done so, have you considered enrolling in the online school and taking your learning - and your game - to the next level? That's where - in addition to detailed lessons and drills that take you through the entire swing step-by-step, position-by-position from setup to finish - you'll find diagnostic tools for identifying/resolving swing and ball flight issues when they arise, plus advanced level instruction, and much more. Thousands of men and women from across the globe - including many accomplished, low-handicap, competitive players and spanning all age ranges from junior to super-senior - are now enjoying the best golf of their lives as a result, and their unsolicited testimonials tell the story quite well: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews. At just $14.99/month or $149.99 per year the value in terms of what you get for that price point is beyond comprehension, and based on proven results it represents by far the best golf instruction deal on the planet.

[@LifeLessonsFromBooks]

Thanks again for this tip. After a SHOCKING game on Monday (as if I never played golf in my life), I’ve been using your videos and tips in them to practice on the range for the last few days. I used the shirt trick and it worked. It just showed me that my fault on the course was because I was bending my arms and hitting the ball really heavy or just having continual air shots. After practising using your videos, Im sure it’ll be better next week on the course. Can’t wait to play again. Thank you!

[@webbdelasteve]

Great tip! I've been doing this exact thing for a while, but still find it hard with driver.

[@SagutoGolf]

I'm glad you enjoyed it! It is essentially the same swing with every club; just some minor setup differences and naturally occurring shaft plane changes as we graduate up in club length from short irons to woods. To demonstrate, you'll find towards the end of this episode some practice range footage of me hitting a 7 iron, 3 wood, and driver: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWHbpJaDrrNmrJo Beyond that, if you search the word "drive" on this channel you'll see some related content. Oftentimes when golfers are hitting everything well except for the driver it can be attributed to one of the following: 1) Their hips are not continuing their lateral slide through impact. This is common with the driver as the wider stance means that the hips have a greater distance to travel. If the hips stop moving laterally towards the target on the downswing then their rotation takes over, inhibiting any further necessary forward weight loading (we should be 80/20 forward halfway down, 90/10 at impact, and 95/5 in the finish), changing the low point and rerouting the club into a steeper angle of attack (AoA). This can produce a variety of undesirable results including fat and thin contact, topped shots and popups, straight pulls, and “banana” slices. Of great importance is keeping your upper torso/head in place (in other words, not moving towards the target from a face-on view) while the hips execute the lateral slide action. This preserves the swing center and the desired shallow AoA. 2) They are not allowing the length of the club to dictate the backswing path and are getting too steep as a result. The shaft of the driver is considerably longer than the other clubs and thus requires more of an around the body backswing as established by the shaft plane at address. It may "feel" flat as they take it back along the shaft plane for the first few feet, but as long as they maintain the "weight forward, shoulder down, and hands in" components while allowing the club to work around them, it should put them in the proper position at the top so they can attack the ball from the inside. (A good feel for that lead shoulder is "down and in, under the chin".) 3) Many believe - and some even teach - that we must try to "hit up on the ball" with the driver. However, consider that in our stock setup with the driver the hands are even with the inside of the lead thigh (as they are with all clubs when playing a standard shot) and our ball position is even with the inside of the heel of the lead foot. This presets a very slight degree of forward shaft lean with the driver. Beyond that, the ball is behind the zero-point of the swing (which is even with the lead shoulder), meaning that without any contrived manipulations the club will still be on its descent - albeit very close to flat - at impact. So, perhaps with the exception of folks with slower swing speeds - or those Long Drive participants teeing it extra high and hitting maybe 1-2 balls out of 10 onto a 60-yard wide "fairway" - in general the path is still ever so slightly down. In fact, the PGA Tour average with the driver is actually minus (e.g.: downward) 1.5 degrees - nearly level - and it should feel level - but slightly down nonetheless. (Here is an article on Ping’s website addressing this topic - ping.com/en-us/blogs/proving-grounds/optimal-launch-and-spin#:~:text=According%20to%20Trackman%2C%20PGA%20Tour,85%25%20ball%2Dflight%20laws ) Here is a link to my FREE mini course “The Top 3 Things You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker” where you can learn some aspects of the system I teach in a more structured manner: go.saguto.golf/ This will provide a nice foundational understanding of the swing keys that will ultimately get you mashing the ball through your entire bag. Tom

[@simonrussell1444]

Brilliant Tom Just brilliant I used to play all hands as a kid /no camera live action in those days /and played of a six handicap I’m 70 now and your lessons transforming my game Our pro still wants me to pick it up with high hands and I just don’t agree Thanks again from Yorkshire U.K.

[@SagutoGolf]

I sincerely appreciate your kind words, Simon, and I am very glad to know that you are benefiting from my instruction! This body-friendly, powerful, consistent, low-maintenance swing system is rooted in physics, geometry, and human physiology, and it is modeled on empirical observations of the game's most prolific ball strikers. As such it does not discriminate by age or ability - from kids to seniors and everyone in between, inclusive of the best players in the world. Watch any Tour event on TV and you'll see a significant number of players executing these motions, a fact corroborated by just how many of them have a very centered swing with the lead knee flexing and the trail leg straightening during the backswing, their lead arms on or very close to their tilted shoulder planes, and their hands deep behind their trail shoulder at the top. Thousands of folks across the globe - including many seasoned, low-handicap, competitive players - are now enjoying the best golf of their lives as a result of learning this swing system through my online school, and I'm happy to let their unsolicited testimonials tell the story: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews. Compare and contrast that with the sad reality that despite all the advances in equipment, technology, golf course grooming, etc. the average golfer still struggles to break 100. Epic failures within the realm of “conventional” instruction, perhaps??? So many misconstrued and/or misguided teachings - such as taking the club straight back, turning the shoulders level while independently lifting the arms, shifting into and torquing against a firm trail side, actively rolling the hands through impact, etc. - have relegated generations of golfers to the vast abyss of inconsistency and chronic frustration (and chronic back/knee/hip pain as well). Thank you again for your message and keep up the great work!! Tom

[@HiCaballo]

Began golf after stumbling onto my high school golf team. One of my biggest breakthroughs was when coach got me to do this by using a towel under my armpit. I finally got the golf bug after 14 years and I still love hitting with this technique.

[@SagutoGolf]

Yes! No matter the accessory - towel, glove, headcover, tee, etc. - establishing that proper trail arm connection is key to consistently crispy ball striking.

Great tips as always. I have tried keeping the right arm connected like you show, but I find I tend to come down very steep and choppy when I do this so something not quite right for me yet.

[@SagutoGolf]

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I suggest trying this shirt trick by externally rotating the upper trail arm and then locking it in place with the "sleeve tuck". You trail elbow should then be against your ribcage as demonstrated in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYKsZ4algZZ0i8k After you have established your connection, _THEN_ take your grip. If you take your grip before externally rotating the arm then that can certainly result in a steep downswing move.

[@SagutoGolf]

Thanks!! I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated with you, Greg, and I hope it performs well when you put it into practice!! If we pre-establish the connections properly in the setup and have a foundational base that facilitates a full centered turn without restriction, then once we've ingrained the correct actions through sequential drilling and repetition we can entrust the motion to the big muscles and allow the arms, wrists, hands, and club to simply go along for the ride and respond accordingly as if on autopilot. The power accumulators - including the proper wrist action - will then naturally load and fire with no contrived manipulations or precise timing necessary, thereby returning the face to the position pre-established at address. It's called "giving up control to gain control", and it's the formula for consistently blissful ball striking and seemingly effortless power.

Another great video. I noticed you seemed to be pressing the club handle forward. Do you recommend that or being in the middle?

[@SagutoGolf]

I'm glad you enjoyed it, Justin! Weight forward 55/45 (up to 60/40 with the longer clubs), both feet flared out approximately 20 degrees with the knees similarly angled outward, arms hanging naturally from the shoulders (except for the driver, for which we push them out an inch or so to encourage more of the around-the-body motion needed for that lengthy shaft), and *_hands even with the inside of the lead thigh_* are prescribed setup features of the swing system I teach. This orientation provides for an unrestricted 45 degrees of tilted hip turn, at which point we only need to add another 45 degrees of shoulder turn for a full 90 degrees. The result is a centered, stress-free, flowing motion back and through, and a very body-friendly, consistent, powerful swing. With specific regard to the hand position, this presets a measure of forward shaft lean which is supportive of our stock push-draw ball flight. Bringing the hands back is one setup adjustment we can make if we wish to shape a pull-fade type of shot. Would you like to learn some key aspects of the swing I teach in a more structured manner?

Nice tips. Someone did advise me during range session to keep my trail arm as per your suggestion and indeed I got better swing. Just one thing, do you have some exercise or tips to fully rotate the shoulder/hips almost 180 degree. Feel a bit uncomfortable doing that. Thanks

[@SagutoGolf]

I'm glad you enjoyed it! As for trying to rotate the shoulders and hips 180 degrees, I would feel very uncomfortable doing that as well, since we only need 45 degrees of hip turn and another 45 degrees of shoulder turn!... 😎 It all begins with a proper foundation.

[@captainconcrete]

Hi Tom, love your instruction. Does this tip apply to the driver. I'm having all sorts of trouble with the big stick. Thanks in advance.

[@SagutoGolf]

Yes - it most certainly does. In fact, it is essentially the same swing with every club; just some minor setup differences and naturally occurring shaft plane changes as we graduate up in club length from short irons to woods. To demonstrate, you'll find towards the end of this episode some practice range footage of me hitting a 7 iron, 3 wood, and driver: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWHbpJaDrrNmrJo Beyond that, if you search the word "drive" on this channel you'll see some related content. Oftentimes when golfers are hitting everything well except for the driver it can be attributed to one of the following: 1) Their hips are not continuing their lateral slide through impact. This is common with the driver as the wider stance means that the hips have a greater distance to travel. If the hips stop moving laterally towards the target on the downswing then their rotation takes over, inhibiting any further necessary forward weight loading (we should be 80/20 forward halfway down, 90/10 at impact, and 95/5 in the finish), changing the low point and rerouting the club into a steeper angle of attack (AoA). This can produce a variety of undesirable results including fat and thin contact, topped shots and popups, straight pulls, and “banana” slices. Of great importance is keeping your upper torso/head in place (in other words, not moving towards the target from a face-on view) while the hips execute the lateral slide action. This preserves the swing center and the desired shallow AoA. 2) They are not allowing the length of the club to dictate the backswing path and are getting too steep as a result. The shaft of the driver is considerably longer than the other clubs and thus requires more of an around the body backswing as established by the shaft plane at address. It may "feel" flat as they take it back along the shaft plane for the first few feet, but as long as they maintain the "weight forward, shoulder down, and hands in" components while allowing the club to work around them, it should put them in the proper position at the top so they can attack the ball from the inside. (A good feel for that lead shoulder is "down and in, under the chin".) 3) Many believe - and some even teach - that we must try to "hit up on the ball" with the driver. However, consider that in our stock setup with the driver the hands are even with the inside of the lead thigh (as they are with all clubs when playing a standard shot) and our ball position is even with the inside of the heel of the lead foot. This presets a very slight degree of forward shaft lean with the driver. Beyond that, the ball is behind the zero-point of the swing (which is even with the lead shoulder), meaning that without any contrived manipulations the club will still be on its descent - albeit very close to flat - at impact. So, perhaps with the exception of folks with slower swing speeds - or those Long Drive participants teeing it extra high and hitting maybe 1-2 balls out of 10 onto a 60-yard wide "fairway" - in general the path is still ever so slightly down. In fact, the PGA Tour average with the driver is actually minus (e.g.: downward) 1.5 degrees - nearly level - and it should feel level - but slightly down nonetheless. (Here is an article on Ping’s website addressing this topic - ping.com/en-us/blogs/proving-grounds/optimal-launch-and-spin#:~:text=According%20to%20Trackman%2C%20PGA%20Tour,85%25%20ball%2Dflight%20laws ) Here is a link to my FREE mini course “The Top 3 Things You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker” where you can learn some aspects of the system I teach in a more structured manner: go.saguto.golf/ This will provide a nice foundational understanding of the swing keys that will ultimately get you mashing the ball through your entire bag.

[@user-om8gi1th5o]

Great tip as usual. What do you think about Hogan's right food being square to the target? I noticed you don't do that.

[@SagutoGolf]

Thanks - I'm glad you enjoyed it! The flaring of both feet 10-20 degrees facilitates the proper amount of body-friendly, free-flowing hip turn back and through. This is a major power move that also keeps the club traveling on the correct path. If you were to square your feet so that they were perpendicular to the target line, then your hips would be impeded from turning sufficiently in the backswing (which would then inhibit the shoulders from executing a full and effortless turn), and from releasing properly in the downswing to propel the club through the zone. Restricting this action can cause a variety of path issues and/or also place strain on the lead knee and the hip joints as the hips will "want" to move laterally and turn through into the finish but will be fighting the body in the process.

@SagutoGolf Hi Tom, just an update I tried this technique and the 3 techniques from your free course on the course over the weekend and its already made an improvement on my game, was making good contact, compressing the ball and getting a nice straight flight. I shaved around 5 strokes, but could have been more if my putting had been as good as my irons and driver. Thanks for the tips!

Mr. T. Saguto, Thank you for giving us hundreds of U-Tube of Saguto Golf School that are truly informative and practical. I want to subscribe your membership ($10.00/month), but unable to do it at this moment, because I am living in Indonesia now and the money transfer fees are so high. I have my daughter in Colorado and I asked her to make an arrangement to pay the subscription fee on my behalf. Once the arrangement is made, I will start subscribing your YOU-TUBEs for members. Anyway, I have been so impressed with your theories and their applications to striking balls. Your theories are very very simple but persuasive because your explanation is most of the time based on physics, geometry, gravity & so on. And most importantly, your theory is extremely effective to my actual round, striking balls!! Next year, I would like to visit South Carolina to see you and to take lessons from you !!!

[@SagutoGolf]

I sincerely appreciate your kind words, Tadano, and I am very glad to know that my instruction content and teaching style are resonating with you!! This powerful, low-maintenance, body-friendly swing system is designed to provide a lifetime of blissful ball striking up to and including at the game's most elite levels, and I am thrilled to learn of your ball striking improvement from implementing my channel's lessons! I look forward to seeing you soon in the online school, the price of which is $14.99/month. The value of the school is far superior to what you would receive through the KZbin channel membership. With the channel membership you will receive one members-only lesson video per week plus access to the archive of past member videos. The online school, on the other hand, is a comprehensive, structured, sequential learning platform where - among many other courses and lessons covering various aspects of the game - you will find very detailed instruction and drills that take you through the entire swing step-by-step from setup to finish. Additionally, you'll find all my short game content (putting, chipping, pitching, bunker play), diagnostic and corrective tools for resolving common swing, contact, and ball flight issues, and so much more. Also, through the school you would still have access to all of the channel member videos, so if you were to enroll in the school there would be no need to maintain both memberships.

I played yesterday and shot 90 (bogey round) using the training tip trail arm up and over drill from the online golf school. My errant shots are left with a hook other wise straight baby draw. My question is could I be setting up too close to the ball when working with the trail and back swing drill causing an over the top move? Eight pars and 4 bogeys but unfortunately 6 others causing at least 7 extra strokes.

Hi Tom, with that tuck in elbow, at top it looks like the club already shallowed, and the right wrist extremely bent back. Is that correct?

[@SagutoGolf]

If you execute this correctly as demonstrated you'll be in a great position at the top to seamlessly transition into a properly shallowed downswing with a perfectly set trail wrist condition - not "extreme" but just right.

[@richardnorth6964]

When you lift your hands above your head in the backswing (say at 4:15 in the video) how to you maintain that arm to chest connection. Best I can do is hands about eye level. Thanks

[@SagutoGolf]

Hi Richard, Have a look at my swing from the DTL view at around the 5:20 mark - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHrQd6OCfLCWbrM It is certainly acceptable to have a few inches of space between the trail elbow and the torso at the top, just like I have in my swing. The key is that the arm has not lost its "tucked" orientation and the elbow is definitely not flying away, meaning that it is in perfect position to reconnect in the downswing. The shirt sleeve tuck trick is a great way to ensure that things are correctly connected and oriented to support the external rotation of the arm. I hope that helps!

I’ve only been playing golf for 3-4 months, but this tip changed my game entirely. I shot a 97 and broke 100 for the first time, and if my putting wasn’t completely terrible that day, I would’ve easily broke 90. I seriously have a Saguto checklist that I run down every time I take a swing. It starts with the back swing, hinge my wrists while keeping the wrist flat, find my end point in my backswing, keep my elbow tucked in to my side, weight forward, keeping a good relationship with the ball. It’s cut down so much on mishits.

[@SagutoGolf]

You broke 100 and felt that breaking 90 was a possibility, and you're only a few months into your golfing career??? That's spectacular!!! 💪💪 I certainly understand the checklist at this juncture, but do know that the ultimate goal is to get your mechanical thoughts down to a bare minimum (if any). An effective, repeatable golf swing is best built on a compilation of personal "feels" that are unique to each of us individually but which at the same time are supportive of the correct actions. Over time we ingrain these feels into a complete motion that we own and can execute without need for mechanical thoughts. If true simplicity is what you seek, then the comprehensive, structured, sequential learning platform of my online school is the place. That's where - among many other courses and lessons covering various aspects of the game - you will find very detailed instruction and drills that take you through the entire swing step-by-step from setup to finish. Once you've ingrained your feel for the motion and commit it to autopilot, you'll then be able to go out there without all that clutter and just have a "swing trigger" thought in your mind. That's when you will truly be able to enjoy playing golf rather than "checklisting" yourself through a round of "golf swing". Thousands of men and women from across the globe spanning all age ranges and talent levels are now enjoying the best golf of their lives as a result of the school, and I'm happy to let their unsolicited testimonials tell the story: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews As referenced in my reply to you in a separate comment thread on this video, if you'd like to first "dip a toe in the water" prior to diving into the school, then have a look at my FREE mini course “The Top 3 Things You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker”: go.saguto.golf/ That is where you can learn some key aspects of the swing system I teach in a more structured manner.

@@SagutoGolf thanks man! I’ve been playing a lot, but just got my first set of clubs in May. Been playing at least once a week, sometimes more. Your channel has helped me so much in such a short time. I do think 90 was a legitimate possibility. I had 2 eagle putts that ended up as a bogey and a par lol if I could’ve putt half as good as I usually do, I think I could’ve shaved 7 strokes to get me around 90. I am almost getting to the point where the swing is ingrained, but it definitely takes work. I was swinging a golf club like a baseball bat before I found your channel lol.

[@dj-flights7376]

Great video Tom, but I finally figured out a major problem in my swing, and it has to do with gluing the arms. I noticed I've been laying the club flat since I got into golf and tried stack and tilt. I just realized it is because of the right elbow. By keeping the right elbow down (the humerus bone and elbow pointed down), the elbow becomes a pivot point and the club will lay flat at the top of the back swing, like losing an arm wrestling match. But if I raise the right elbow as I hinge and turn back, (humerus bone almost parallel to the horizon), then my club looks correct at the top of the back swing, parallel to target or even slightly across the line, which I was never able to do before. So I'm confused, this solves my laying the club flat problem, but is a lift, which you say we should avoid. Is a little bit of lift ok? I notice on your full swing at 3:40 in your video, your upper arm is almost parallel to the horizon and the shaft is parallel to the target line, perfect. But when you demo taking it back early in the video, your upper arm is pointed down to the ground but not with a full back swing. So for full swings we will need a bit of lift, correct? As long as we keep the armpits glued?

[@robchapman3514]

He explains in another video that you can take connection too far. I was doing this. Keeping arms connected down to the elbows which caused all types of problems. Keeping connected down to where your sleeve ends helps immensely

[@SagutoGolf]

There is no independent lifting action necessary in this system. "Elevation" of the arms and thus the club occurs as a result of establishing the proper connections and then executing the tilting, turning, and extending motions while the lead arm crosses the chest 45 degrees. This should bring you to a top of backswing position in which the straight lead arm is on or very close to the downwardly tilted shoulder line and the trail arm is bent to 90 degrees with the forearm approximately perpendicular to the ground. Check your lead arm connection. It should be in the armpit area but not any lower than that. This will allow that arm to cross the upper part of the chest. If you are too connected with that arm then it will cross the chest lower and create the type of top-of-backswing condition you explained. Beyond that, the scope of this question venturing into a level of detail that is beyond the realm of this forum but which you will find readily available on-demand in the online school. TS

[@connerm4850]

So would you say this is more important than “width” (right elbow off of body) for high handicaps? Is that what width means?

[@SagutoGolf]

The misunderstood notions and false assumptions associated with "width" have led many an amateur golfer to inconsistency and frustration. If we agree that the swing is an arc of a centered circle, then it can only have one radius - that being the straight lead arm that is established at address. This does not mean that we actively shorten or collapse the trail arm during the motion. Instead, if we pre-establish the connections properly in the setup - for example with the upper trail arm as demonstrated in this video - and have a foundational base that facilitates a full centered turn without restriction, then once we've ingrained the correct actions through sequential drilling and repetition we can entrust the motion to the big muscles and allow the arms, wrists, hands, and club to simply go along for the ride and respond accordingly as if on autopilot. The power accumulators - including the proper wrist action and folding trail arm - will then naturally load and fire with no contrived manipulations or precise timing necessary, thereby returning the face to the position pre-established at address. It's called "giving up control to gain control", and it's the formula for consistently blissful ball striking and seemingly effortless power.

[@anthonytucker6208]

Tom, I’m curious why you play the ball so far back in your stance? Or does it just look that way on camera?

[@SagutoGolf]

Hi Anthony, Yes - We first need to be aware that camera angles can greatly skew the viewer's perspective on ball position. That aside, while this system affords you some leeway, in general once my students and members show some level of proficiency with the swing I suggest that they migrate to a stock ball position that is in the middle of the stance for short irons, two balls inside the lead heel for middle irons, and creeping more forward for the longer clubs - the farthest forward being even with the inside of the lead heel for the driver (with the stance width increasing as we move from shorter to longer clubs). From there they can make incremental tweaks to see how different positions affect impact quality and shot shape.
