I know this is an old video, and I've watched it a half a dozen times. In my opinion this may be Danny's most important and best instructional video and right up there with the best of UA-cam golf lessons by any instructor. It's not complicated, but it's sound.
This is the only golf video on UA-cam that makes sense... until you understand this concept, you cannot really work on anything else in your golf swing. This is everything and is something I had to find on my own a few weeks ago and changed my entire game. I wish I had seen a video like this when I first started a few years ago. Great video bud. This will help a lot of people. Cheers.
Breathe in breathe out. That's brilliant. When I make a bad shot, it feels like I am rushing. With being conscious of breathing, I have a rhythm that works. Thank you as always.
God id be lost without Dannys videos. Everything he says makes so much sense and the way he says it just gives you the will to try. Excellent coach, best on YT
I'm 67 years old and have been playing golf for 40 years. Your example of Richard is exactly what I look like. Chicken wing!!! Can't wait to try your tip. I also ordered the Orange Whip. Best tip by far!!! Thanks
Update from my previous post. At the age of 64 I’ve just won a club major with a consistent 72, 68, 68 off a 21 handicap now 19. Many thanks for the great tips Danny, also our club professional. I never in my wildest dreams thought I could do this. To say I’m over the moon would be an understatement 🏌️♂️🏌️♂️🏌️♂️🏆
I'm a beginner and your comparison of a golf swing and throwing a ball made it all click in my head. I've been watching all the beginner swing videos I can find and as soon as you said that it made all that info suddenly glue together. Thank you.
Your Golf lessons are really a benchmark, lucky guys those living by your school, In 20 years I am playing my best just following your UA-cam teaching. Many thanks!!!!
Hi Danny. Your breathing technique is genious! I've struggled for years with all kinds of swing thoughts to tame that beast but had little success until your idea came along. I'll always give you credit for this fix. Thanks. Greg Steele
Fantastic video. Most won't believe how much club head speed they can pick up if they simply pay attention to this video. Anyone can do it. Danny has the most valuable videos on UA-cam.
Excellent drill. Breathing in thru your nose slowly. So simple! Slight delay at the top really helps older golfers re-straighten their arms on the way down.
'Pull as if someone is holding your club' made me strike the ball better than ever before. Somehow that clicked so easily! It made my flow better and feel more natural than all the tips my teacher have given me. Great tip, great video!!
Hi Danny , the breathing exercise was an absolute revelation for me this evening . Takes all unwanted swing thoughts out of the process and really freed up my swing with all the clubs . Extra distance and accuracy . Many thanks !
I took a few lessons from a pro who was stuck teaching at a driving range who taught me to turn in a telephone booth---he videoed everything and after 10 minutes he had me swinging like a pro---Danny takes that theory a few steps further---great job Danny!
Boy do I need this video. My golfing buddies tell me it’s all about tempo. No matter how often I remind myself while addressing the ball, I have difficulty not rushing my downswing. I can’t wait to try the pull power and breathing exercise. Thanks Danny for another spot on analysis of a common problem for us hacks. If I didn’t know better, I’d say you’re playing in the group behind me!!
I've watched 300+ golf videos and Danny's videos are easily some of the best. This video makes complex movements so simple to digest. If you're new to learning golf technique on UA-cam make sure to watch a series of these videos to make some significant positive changes to your swing
I have had a hard time hitting my driver consistently with power, most of the time I could hit my 5-iron just as far and more accurate, rendering the driver a useless club for me. This video has really helped me push the driver much further and accurate, understanding the principles behind it. It's just so well explained, the breathing exercise if you wanna call it that worked so damn well for me. It stops my drives from outside-in hits to inside-out with power to get that beautiful natural draw consistently. Thank you Danny, really thank you.
You are the first instructor that I’ve ever spoken to that mentions breathing in on up and out on down. This makes total sense! Everything we do is breath related, workouts you press the air out as you push or pull the weight. Since I’ve started this, not only do I have better control of my backswing transition to my downswing, but my core is MORE activated through my ball strike. Of the THOUSANDS of tips that I’ve been given or sought out on UA-cam, or was provided in a lesson, the “Danny Maude Control Breath” is without question the best single golf technique ever provided to me! All of your videos are absolutely smashing! I watch a lot of the, perhaps, more well known instructors in UA-cam land and every one of your videos provides helpful information. I am no longer “getting stuck in” or watching the “Manchester guy” or any of the others. Your videos are, hands down, the best. Keep doing what you are doing, and THANK YOU!!!
Thank you for taking the time to write to me, I really do appreciate it...Great to hear the breathing exercise is helping, its one of my personal favourites
Have made my own analysis of this move and figured out how to make it work for me. I set up a practice station with two alignment rods representing the plane on both left and right side. The gool is to make the shaft move just about touching the left alignment stitch in the follow through. This made me feel the DIRECTION/PLANE off the PULL. THIS made the exercise even more valuable. Made a few practice swings in the station and the went up to the ball near the station and made a real pull-hit with a golf ball. Thanks a lot for this video Danny.
Dear Danny after watching your video I have improved a Lot as a beginner Thanks a lot for wonderful explanation of Techniques Praying for your health and Peace 🤗
Great video. I have a very strong tendency to snatch the club from the top with top speed. I have been fighting against this for quite some time, even having lessons to try and fix this major problem. I tried the tip in your video about the pull system and it works like magic over the weekend. Quality after quality after quality shots.
Cheers Danny, absolute great explanation. Finally I am pulling my clubs now after 10 years pushing them and my ball striking improved by 100%. I played my best round ever yesterday. Awesome lesson for me. Cheers for sharing this here free of charge. 👌👍
Danny, I think this is me. I’ve watched too many videos about “throwing the clubhead through impact” which for me has ingrained too much right arm in the swing instead of pulling the club using the much bigger and stronger muscles. I bought an Orange Whip a couple of months ago. I will use it at home this evening as you point out here, but cant wait to get back to practice facility tomorrow. Another great video!
The focus on pulling the club through really helps me create lag better than any other tip I have tried. I had been told to pull the handle down toward the ball but that put too much emphasis on hitting at the ball instead of through it. Your description keeps my swing flowing through the ball better focusing on pulling with my left srm while keeping me from casting the right hand (I'm R handed) over the top. Great description Danny!
Great vid, we’ll explained. The orange whip is great but quite expensive. I bought two weighted, metal ‘donuts’ you drop down the shaft and they weight the end. Has the same effect for less than £4 each on amazon👍
Fabulous tip Danny makes total sense and the first time I’ve seen it explained like this 👍🏼 The right side for a right hander is dominant this led me to over the top, the pulling motion drops the shaft naturally without overthinking 👌
What I like most about this training video is that the training aid is not new. Most people I've seen use it only use it to warm up before playing. Funny how you can see something that's been around for a long time, being used as it was meant to be used, and change your view of it. I have been looking to buy one for a couple of years now. I guess it's time to pull the trigger. You also explained the "pull" better than I've heard before. Now I know why the old, "Act like your pulling the strings on a widow blind," never worked for me.
Thank you Danny, you are a Genius of the golf teacher… it's so easy with your explanations… I was 54 in march I am 19 today… with your teaching ! and you are fun in extra… (sorry for my bad English…)
Another intuitive golf video. Being someone who lifts weights, and runs, I can relate to proper breathing technique. Applying it to the coil and timing of the downswing makes all the sense in the world. Thanks!
Danny...Great tip with the PULL of the club with legs and torso and then accelerate through the downswing...Super Senior hitting it better then ever and LONG....
Bloody hell, pull power. Brilliant way to help describe what that should feel like. Not tried it yet but will do as soon as I get down the range next week.
Danny thank you very much regarding the pulling of the club and not pushing!!! That really helped out!!! I was pushing through the swing for sure now that I am pulling I can feel club speed. The swing feels much more relaxed and hitting the ball is strong!! Great video.
I have been working on the breathing method you suggested and to my amazement it really does help you slow you down and now I am hitting the ball straighter and longer thanks.
Thank you Danny for this video. I cannot find a way to stop rushing the downswing, with the breathing technique, I believe this will finally stop the urge to rush the downswing
Brilliant tip with the breathing. Another issue with my down swing is to get too quick so this video has given me some more tips to get my swing back. The feel thing is the only way I can know what I’m doing but have lost this over the last year. Feeling more keen now to try again. Thank you !
Hi danny. Always waiting for your videos to come out. Number one fan. I would love to come and see you next year all away from Spain. Your doing wonders for us golfers. Thanks again.
Marcus Sheldon thanks for commenting Marcus and the feedback...it would be great to see you over here in the UK. I’m actually planning a possibly coaching school at the PGA Catalunya. Nothing set in stone yet but who knows 😁
Hi danny. Can you clear somthing up for me. You here about try to keep your back towards target as long as possible in the transition. Is that what you should be trying to do. Thanks Marcus
This is an incredibly helpful tip. I have been struggling for weeks to consistently hit targets in the grass while trying to groove my swing in my backyard. This tip did it for me by establishing a tempo. You are an amazing golf instructor. Thank you!
As a follow-up, I have been hitting the ball with increasing consistency over the past couple of weeks since incorporating this tip to stop rushing the downswing. I finally have a swing tempo. A big breakthrough for me came 2 days ago when I broke 90 for the first time and had my first ever eagle - driving the green on a short par four. Wow! My buds are now asking for strokes when we play.
Just recently got into golf with my boys and we are all a mess but loving it. Watched a number of videos and your training resonates. Now if the snow would just clear out so I can put these tips onto practice!
Hi Danny. First, thank you for making these videos for beginners like myself. I never golfed in my life so I went to topgolf for a firsthand experience. I had fun but I was also frustrated with my form and swing. I've been binge watching your entire beginner golfers - golf swing tips playlist today. I will be applying what you taught in your videos the next time I head out to golf. Keep up the content and take care!!
Your video are always brilliant I was alway under the told that don't pull the club from the top.. I tried it pulling to in backyard.. I was surprised with the speed I got by doing this
Brilliant again Danny. I have the Orange whip but that demonstration with it I will definitely give it another go especially with the proper breathing!!
This swing tip is really helping me with casting from the top, hitting it better and the sequencing in my swing. Rushing or accelerating from the top with the arms and hands are a death blow to a golf swing. I need to start from the ground up with a separation in the hip and shoulder turn. Just watch Rory in slow motion.
Thanks Danny you make golf fun with your enthusiasm and a thorough coverage of the key elements of a great swing Off to the range to fine tune my game for the better.
Thank you so much for your simple straightforward teaching method. My swing is much more natural now after practicing your simple steps. Keep up the great work helping others improve their game!!
Danny I been struggling bad with driver. I hit my irons really well. I had friends tell me my iron swing is so much more smoother and timing is so much better. I have watched two of you videos on the 101 step in the swing and the takeaway. I have a bad habit of whipping down on the driver and coming over the top. I am gonna try these two steps and really work on the takeaway info.
I played today after watching this and focused on the pull. Things went really well. You're absolutely correct that it is critical to complete the backswing so that you feel the tension in your torso which then helps to naturally produce the reverse pulling. Excellent. I'm sure this will keep working for me for another day or two. (Lol).
My training aid arrived yesterday. I could feel the difference from just a few swings right out of the box. Looking forward to putting it to use not only as a training aid but as a warm up aid. Thanks again for suggesting the training aid.
Training update- Using the training aid and hitting balls in the front yard using your pull through technique has things going straighter. Now on to a issue that has been caused by this training video. I have to figure out my distance with each club all over again. Much better issue compared to what I was going through before. Thanks again Danny.
Can you take another update? I have figured out how to pull through my shots without having to think about it. (tee ball down to 8 iron. Still trying to work it with my short irons) Solid contract drives are now traveling 20+ yards longer. Now if I only lived near by I could take lessons in person. Thanks again for your video lessons.
Hi again Danny. I have a problem with a rushed downswing which results in a multitude of bad shots. I can relate to your breathing in and out to slow down my swing and make it more co-ordinated. I also have the swing aide but am sure now that I have been using it incorrectly after seeing your video. Cant wait to put it all together!!
Great stuff Danny! I was doing this on every shot today - not the good stuff, but the bad stuff. My driver was shooting the ball skywards - not because I was teeing too high as my buddy kept telling me, but because there was no room to sweep through. And I now realise the reason I'm struggling at golf (well, one of 'em) is similar to why I struggle to swim. I don't actually breath at all whilst doing either of them! I'll give it a go at the range soon.
Danny you are brilliant. I watched this video and your Best Swing For Seniors Video yesterday and played nine holes this morning. It was so much fun. I liked it all but the breathing technique coupled with the downward pull did the trick for me. I guess the initiation of the downward pull after breathing in through the nose must have taken care of the transition from the backswing to downswing because I did not even think about the transition and I did not seem to need to. I was already moving my right foot back and flaring my toes. I will be watching all of your videos and I can’t wait to play again. You have given me a sense of more power and control and !!!WOW!!! What a great feeling that is. Oh and also I am keeping my balance after the swing. These are the best two golf videos that I have ever seen.
Great video Danny thank you! Our golf courses are closing here in the BC Rockies and my last game did not go well. I found I was pushing the club instead of pulling it and so ran out to the range today before it closed for the Winter and did your drill with my orange whip. I have the long one and the short one for my carry bag. Anyway, withing a few dusters and maybe 5 balls I was really smacking the ball (straighter and higher) and I found that my left hip was leading the power sequence and I didn't have to really pull the grip down in the end - it just sort of fell down. I knew this from a few years ago but somehow the brain cells re arranged and this has been a re discovery. The breathing thing is brilliant too. Can't go to Arizona so just had to end the year with a gigantic fix - like they say "you are da man!" Thank you, I shall search for more tips........cheers Patrick
I had a big "light bulb" moment watching this lesson!!! Like most all your lessons! Thanks.
Continued success, cheers.
These are the best how to videos! Wish I had found them sooner as a beginner
Great to have you here John
I know this is an old video, and I've watched it a half a dozen times. In my opinion this may be Danny's most important and best instructional video and right up there with the best of UA-cam golf lessons by any instructor. It's not complicated, but it's sound.

Easy to understand and a student gets it, you are a great teacher. After hearing many videos I just simply gets it after watching first time!
I'm 67 years old and have been playing golf for 40 years. Your example of Richard is exactly what I look like. Chicken wing!!! Can't wait to try your tip. I also ordered the Orange Whip. Best tip by far!!! Thanks

Thanks for taking the time to feedback Barry
Your Golf lessons are really a benchmark, lucky guys those living by your school, In 20 years I am playing my best just following your UA-cam teaching. Many thanks!!!!
Amazing Gregorio, thanks for taking the time to feedback

Absolutely brilliant lesson. The breathing tip is just so awesome. And the pull VS thr push motion. Thanks so much Danny. Keeping the videos coming.
Fantastic video. Most won't believe how much club head speed they can pick up if they simply pay attention to this video. Anyone can do it. Danny has the most valuable videos on UA-cam.
Richard Little thanks for the kind words Richard
For me Danny is the best ‘explainer’ in golf
Thanks for always taking the time to feedback
This guy give free lessons, Why would YOU dislike
Thanks for the support t
Pull vs push - this was great. Sometimes I can't believe your content is free. Hands down the best golf teacher on UA-cam imho.
googolplexed very kind of you to say, thanks for taking the time to comment
I agree … I am a fan
Danny another simplified instruction of golf really good thanks
Happy to help David, all the best
Excellent drill.
Breathing in thru your nose slowly. So simple!
Slight delay at the top really helps older golfers re-straighten their arms on the way down.
The best golf teachers seem to be from Europe... can't be coincidence...
Pulling the club... BEST BEST BEST Mental image that you gave ever.. my swing changed completely overnight, after this amazing video... thnx
Thats great Galip, thanks for letting me know how this video helped your golf game
'Pull as if someone is holding your club' made me strike the ball better than ever before. Somehow that clicked so easily! It made my flow better and feel more natural than all the tips my teacher have given me.
Great tip, great video!!
Devin Dazzle NL thanks Devin, I like this one great to hear you do too
Thx devin. I seen that and gonna try it
Great explaining the down swing pull instead of a push.
Hi Danny , the breathing exercise was an absolute revelation for me this evening . Takes all unwanted swing thoughts out of the process and really freed up my swing with all the clubs . Extra distance and accuracy . Many thanks !
My pleasure Mike, great to hear it helped, you have my Mum to thank for the breathing exercise, its one of her idea
I took a few lessons from a pro who was stuck teaching at a driving range who taught me to turn in a telephone booth---he videoed everything and after 10 minutes he had me swinging like a pro---Danny takes that theory a few steps further---great job Danny!
A very good vid. Pulling not pushing and slowing down. Just what I have been working on and this helps me visualize it. Thanks
That’s great John
I was way out of rhythm yesterday, now I know why! Thanks Danny
Boy do I need this video. My golfing buddies tell me it’s all about tempo. No matter how often I remind myself while addressing the ball, I have difficulty not rushing my downswing.

Thanks Danny the video helps. I had an Orange whip sitting in my closet, but I really didn’t know how to use the darn thing! Now I do!!!
Cool, enjoy 👍
Finally found what I was looking for, can't wait to try it this weekend!!
Great visuals and explanation of push vs pull. Makes perfect sense…now! 😀
All the best Kirsh
Dear Danny after watching your video I have improved a Lot as a beginner Thanks a lot for wonderful explanation of Techniques Praying for your health and Peace 🤗

I received the Orange Whip as a gift, and the PULL really comes through! Great vid, thanks as always!
You are very welcome Todd
The simplicity of the coaching is amazing! A real pleasure to see and apply...

excelent video very clear....the concept about how make power and avoid to use only the arms only.
Thank you Carlos, really happy to help
Inhale and exhale is fantastic
The focus on pulling the club through really helps me create lag better than any other tip I have tried. I had been told to pull the handle down toward the ball but that put too much emphasis on hitting at the ball instead of through it. Your description keeps my swing flowing through the ball better focusing on pulling with my left srm while keeping me from casting the right hand (I'm R handed) over the top. Great description Danny!
You are the best teacher I have had,,, thank you
You are very welcome Ronald
Just tried the full turn, pull, breath method in back yard with wiffle balls. It definitely works. Thanks for the video.
Jack Greer my pleasure Jack, hope you’re having a great weekend
So many of us at Westlake Golf Club in Cape Town SA enjoying your videos Danny!
Thats amazing, thanks for sharing
Great vid, we’ll explained. The orange whip is great but quite expensive. I bought two weighted, metal ‘donuts’ you drop down the shaft and they weight the end. Has the same effect for less than £4 each on amazon👍
I was a teacher before, and I know a lot of teachers out there, but only a few can understand what their students really need. thanks again.
Richard Ren Thanks For taking the time to feedback Richard, 👍
Finally something I can get…Thank you Danny 👍
Pleasure Lionel
I've thought about these while at retail stores and never was clear on its benefit. However, you explain it well, and it is intuitive.
Fabulous tip Danny makes total sense and the first time I’ve seen it explained like this 👍🏼 The right side for a right hander is dominant this led me to over the top, the pulling motion drops the shaft naturally without overthinking 👌
Absolutely Graham 👍🙏
Very nice lesson Danny emphasizing power breathing when winding and unwinding the golf swing helping to promote more clubhead speed. Thank you
Thank you Craig, hope it helps you to stop rushing the downswing
What I like most about this training video is that the training aid is not new. Most people I've seen use it only use it to warm up before playing. Funny how you can see something that's been around for a long time, being used as it was meant to be used, and change your view of it. I have been looking to buy one for a couple of years now.

Amazing, well done Pat, and thanks for sharing your progress
Bloody hell, pull power. Brilliant way to help describe what that should feel like. Not tried it yet but will do as soon as I get down the range next week.
Thanks Dave let me know how you get on 👍
Great lessons Danny. Your explanations and demonstrations are so easy to understand. Make’s practice very easy. 👍
Pleasure Gregory all the best
Again, brilliant! The orange but also the breathing idea. I will share it with friends too! Thank you Danny!
Danny thank you very much regarding the pulling of the club and not pushing!!! That really helped out!!! I was pushing through the swing for sure now that I am pulling I can feel club speed. The swing feels much more relaxed and hitting the ball is strong!! Great video.
Fantastic! You are very welcome Trent
I have been working on the breathing method you suggested and to my amazement it really does help you slow you down and now I am hitting the ball straighter and longer thanks.
Brilliant. well done Ricky
I never get tired of these new aids & ideas. Can't wait to get to the range!!! Thanks Danny.
Enjoy 😬
Thank you Danny for this video. I cannot find a way to stop rushing the downswing, with the breathing technique, I believe this will finally stop the urge to rush the downswing
Really hope it helps you Ray
Brilliant tip with the breathing. Another issue with my down swing is to get too quick so this video has given me some more tips to get my swing back. The feel thing is the only way I can know what I’m doing but have lost this over the last year. Feeling more keen now to try again. Thank you !
Nicola Davies that’s great Nicola, hope it works out for you...keep me posted
Nailed my fault in one Danny! Thank you I'll get busy with this and hopefully enjoy the game again.
Nice simple explanation 👍🏆⛳
Steve Daly glad it has helped 👍

Just recently got into golf with my boys and we are all a mess but loving it. Watched a number of videos and your training resonates. Now if the snow would just clear out so I can put these tips onto practice!
Hopefully not long now
I love that exhale idea. I will try it tomorrow.
Let me know how you got on Howard 👍
Another excellent explanation of what’s required in a good golf swing. Thanks Danny
Great lesson Danny…. Might be the best drill ever on y-tube😊😊😊
Thank you Bobblunkosky 😁
Hi Danny. First, thank you for making these videos for beginners like myself. I never golfed in my life so I went to topgolf for a firsthand experience. I had fun but I was also frustrated with my form and swing. I've been binge watching your entire beginner golfers - golf swing tips playlist today. I will be applying what you taught in your videos the next time I head out to golf. Keep up the content and take care!!
That’s awesome, welcome to the game
Your video are always brilliant
I was alway under the told that don't pull the club from the top..
I tried it pulling to in backyard.. I was surprised with the speed I got by doing this
That’s great Ravi, thanks for sharing
Yep! Pretty good video - explains everything! I particularly like the breathing part. Keep 'em coming Danny!
Thank you Mike, happy to help
Brilliant again Danny. I have the Orange whip but that demonstration with it I will definitely give it another go especially with the proper breathing!!
Thats great Jill, Ive been really impressed with the whip since I got it
This swing tip is really helping me with casting from the top, hitting it better and the sequencing in my swing. Rushing or accelerating from the top with the arms and hands are a death blow to a golf swing. I need to start from the ground up with a separation in the hip and shoulder turn. Just watch Rory in slow motion.
Keep up the good work Sandy
Danny, excellent teaching. Pulling the club through, will remember that.
Hope it helps Allan
Thanks Danny you make golf fun with your enthusiasm and a thorough coverage of the key elements of a great swing
Off to the range to fine tune my game for the better.
David Ryan perfect, practice makes permanent
Great video, Danny! I have always had problems rushing the downswing. The concept of pulling the club made everything click for me. Thank you!
Awesome Graham, happy to help
Thank you so much for your simple straightforward teaching method. My swing is much more natural now after practicing your simple steps. Keep up the great work helping others improve their game!!
Danny I been struggling bad with driver. I hit my irons really well. I had friends tell me my iron swing is so much more smoother and timing is so much better. I have watched two of you videos on the 101 step in the swing and the takeaway. I have a bad habit of whipping down on the driver and coming over the top. I am gonna try these two steps and really work on the takeaway info.
Love to hear how it goes Bill
Hi Danny, I like the pull versus pull power description as it’s a simple reminder of the sequence we should have. My problem is my getting too far in
Jeff Powell see my last answer, it will help
I played today after watching this and focused on the pull. Things went really well. You're absolutely correct that it is critical to complete the backswing so that you feel the tension in your torso which then helps to naturally produce the reverse pulling. Excellent. I'm sure this will keep working for me for another day or two. (Lol).
Jeff Loewi funny 😂, thanks for sharing your progress Jeff
My training aid arrived yesterday. I could feel the difference from just a few swings right out of the box. Looking forward to putting it to use not only as a training aid but as a warm up aid.
Thanks again for suggesting the training aid.
My pleasure Michael, there are many things that you can do with it. I only show you one thing in this video
Danny Maude as long as I can use it to wake up my shoulders and keep my swing in a grove that’s all that matters for me.
Training update- Using the training aid and hitting balls in the front yard using your pull through technique has things going straighter. Now on to a issue that has been caused by this training video. I have to figure out my distance with each club all over again. Much better issue compared to what I was going through before.
Thanks again Danny.
Michael J Brennan that’s great Michael, wonderful to hear about your progress
Can you take another update?
I have figured out how to pull through my shots without having to think about it. (tee ball down to 8 iron. Still trying to work it with my short irons) Solid contract drives are now traveling 20+ yards longer. Now if I only lived near by I could take lessons in person.
Thanks again for your video lessons.
Awesome paradigm shift
Hope it helps Carol
SOooooo good!! Thanks very much again Danny.
My pleasure Ian, all the very best
Hi again Danny. I have a problem with a rushed downswing which results in a multitude of bad shots. I can relate to your breathing in and out to slow down my swing and make it more co-ordinated. I also have the swing aide but am sure now that I have been using it incorrectly after seeing your video. Cant wait to put it all together!!
Look forward to hearing how you get on Michael, all the best
Danny the Master! Yes! Great visual and coaching. Thanks again, from South Africa 🇿🇦
Thanks Georgie, great training tool this
Thanks Danny, I got the Good way and easy, to pull not to push, Im from Jakarta Indonesia
That’s great Bob 👍
Thanks!
No problem Pedram
Great stuff Danny! I was doing this on every shot today - not the good stuff, but the bad stuff. My driver was shooting the ball skywards - not because I was teeing too high as my buddy kept telling me, but because there was no room to sweep through. And I now realise the reason I'm struggling at golf (well, one of 'em) is similar to why I struggle to swim. I don't actually breath at all whilst doing either of them! I'll give it a go at the range soon.
Danny you are brilliant. I watched this video and your Best Swing For Seniors Video yesterday and played nine holes this morning. It was so much fun. I liked it all but the breathing technique coupled with the downward pull did the trick for me. I guess the initiation of the downward pull after breathing in through the nose must have taken care of the transition from the backswing to downswing because I did not even think about the transition and I did not seem to need to. I was already moving my right foot back and flaring my toes. I will be watching all of your videos and I can’t wait to play again. You have given me a sense of more power and control and !!!WOW!!! What a great feeling that is. Oh and also I am keeping my balance after the swing. These are the best two golf videos that I have ever seen.
charles mcdonald that’s wonderful Charles, thanks so much for the feedback...I really do appreciate the support
Great video Danny thank you! Our golf courses are closing here in the BC Rockies and my last game did not go well. I found I was pushing the club instead of pulling it and so ran out to the range today before it closed for the Winter and did your drill with my orange whip. I have the long one and the short one for my carry bag. Anyway, withing a few dusters and maybe 5 balls I was really smacking the ball (straighter and higher) and I found that my left hip was leading the power sequence and I didn't have to really pull the grip down in the end - it just sort of fell down. I knew this from a few years ago but somehow the brain cells re arranged and this has been a re discovery. The breathing thing is brilliant too. Can't go to Arizona so just had to end the year with a gigantic fix - like they say "you are da man!" Thank you, I shall search for more tips........cheers Patrick
Thanks so much Patrick
