Why 90% of Golfer's Can't Hit Their Driver Straight

[@richardpolkinghorn8229]

I am a 72 year old physician and swimmer - still playing golf which I love and have played since I was 12 . Great video super helpful. You make it simple and pragmatic which we all need. This will give more yards- and fun to my drives which is essential at my age. Thanks again. Rick Polkinghorn, Augusta, Maine

Thanks for watching and commenting Rick, glad to hear the video resonated with you! What other topics would you like to see us cover in a future video?

73 yo, i’ve been following Todd for 2 years. yesterday i had my lowest score since 2010, a 78 at Woodstock (VT) CC. He’s the real deal.

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Let's go Barry! Next goal, shooting your age....congrats!

[@RichardNettleton]

I watched this yesterday, the square the face and knee drill worked amazing for me. I won the nine hole comp today every drive went straight, never before. Cheers Cowes Phillip Island Australia.

Love the content. I'm 65 and live in Reno, Nevada. I work in the construction industry and have for 45 years. The abuse that the body takes over time in this industry can be brutal. Between back surgery, the AC and CC torn out on my left scapula and damage to my right elbow from swinging a hammer for so many years, it makes it difficult to swing the club traditionally. With your tips for Seniors, it has made my golf game much more enjoyable and dropped my handicap a few strokes. Thank you.

Great! Are you following the Vertical Line Swing system?

Joe Zancola from Binbrook Ontario Canada. I have been watching your videos for a couple years now and love the info you provide. I’m 69 yrs old and in my 4th season of playing this wonderful game. I’m a 24 handicap and this is my most reoccurring issues. I usually hit a slight fade and once in a while a horrible slice. Thanks for the ideas now I have to implement them constantly.

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Thanks for watching Joe and supporting the channel! Be sure to check back and let us know how it goes

[@johnsadler8637]

A kindred spirit! 69 for another month or so, and started playing, or trying to, in 2020.

Justin, 50 from Wisconsin. Todd your videos are really helping me get some of my game back under control after a 20 year break from playing. Tempo is my number one killer, still can't convince myself that I don't have a 25 year old body anymore.

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Thanks for the kind words. Here is a great video we did on tempo kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqmQeWekqbKWfdUsi=mXHwRatsrN5MHISn

[@kevina3780]

6 in Edmonton Canada . Working on hitting higher shots. Driver swing speed 97 but I hit every club too low. Please make a video about this problem. Bought the book and it has helped contact.

[@johnschwartz1536]

In addition to the VLS, I like the "right/left" thought for the backswing and downswing! Well Done Todd!

[@USGOLFTVshow]

You bet John, thanks for the continued support!

[@goldwingerppg5953]

Tension is the #1 offender is spot on for me. I swing too fast when I have tension, which makes my swing even worse. Great tips! 65 years old Germantown, Md.

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Good stuff, glad to hear you like the info! Here's another great video we did on creating a more tension-free golf swing: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nH63d6V4e8RsbNk

Todd very glad I found your channel and a recent subscriber. I have been experimenting with the single plane method. I start out with the set up in a vertical position and then bring the club back and through. The result seems to be the same as VSL. Can you give me your thoughts ? I am also going to buy the bundle Maxvert Driver and the 2 hybrids. I am 68 years old. Do I need to go and test my swing speed to order the correct shaft?….or based on my age can you make a recommendation. All of my clubs are regular shaft ? Thanks for the great lessons!! BTW I am from Pittsburgh PA!

[@USGOLFTVshow]

Thanks for the post. A regular shaft would be perfect in the MaxVert. Yes, there are some things that are the same in the Single Plane and our Vertical Line Swing. However our system is also about teaching proper body movement. You can learn the entire system in our book THE BAD LIE which can be found on Amazon.

[@USGOLFTVshow]

[@larrylarry9278]

keeping the club square at take away . If do not think about I roll the club inside and swing around instead of back the way I should .

Will turn 70 in a couple months. Started playing 3.5 years ago.

[@DMKFACTOR]

2 reasons why amateur golfer struggle to hit the ball straight. 1. They think they need to kill the ball! 2. THEY DON’tT TAKE LESSONS!
