    OMG Zach, you have a special way with teaching. The piece about width is exactly what I have been missing

    Clear & concise teaching. That extra width feels really powerful. Thanks brother.

    Zac, this practice move is so fantastic! I have the feeling of swinging a lot slower than i normally did before, but holy moly did i pick some distance! I do a couple of practice swing , with the drill, before every shot, in the fairway or on the tee box, and it's simply does miracle for me! Thank you so much Zac! You're the best!

    Great video. The "width" and the "stretch" are both important, and you gave us a great drill for both, Zach. For the "stretch," my swing thought is: stay relaxed at the start of the downswing, and keep both elbows over my right/trail foot for as long as I can as my hips turn towards the target. I practice with a speed radar, and I definitely get more mph this way, with far less effort. Thanks again, Zach.

    Hey Zack love this and😮 other videos, this really helped me, talking about how you should feel just went to the range and was hitting high draws, love the disassociate in the swing

    I have a very compact swing by design and was struggling in my last couple of rounds as it felt I was chopping at the ball. This simple drill on the range has brought my width back and swing more fluid once again. This is effective and so portable , I can use it while waiting for my partners to hit! GREAT TIP!

    I saw some video of my swing and surprisingly found my trail elbow hardly left my core. Have a good turn, but little radius. This video has helped. Not only longer, but a better shot shape. Thanks, Zach!

    • @ZachAllenGolf
      @ZachAllenGolf  3 роки тому

      Yep exactly the trail elbow should only touch your torso later in the downswing. Too soon and you compromise width.

    Good advice getting the hands to stay quite is really tough. Watching you demonstrate has given me hope of gaining some much needed distance. I am possibly the definition of the mad slasher, which could easily address the reason my hands (arms) lead me into ball. Cheers let’s all pray for a moment of peaceful complete swing, Amen.

    Excellent video... nearing scratch golf and a weakness in my swing is when I lose width in my swing and have to swing my arms faster to get decent club head speed. Wil definitely being trying this drill out.

  • @golfnutt1969
    @golfnutt1969 3 роки тому +3

    I've worked with this and another benefit that I've found is that with the slower feeling swing, the quality of contact goes up. I'm hitting the ball a full club longer and much more consistent and straighter.

      @allymcnab8148 3 роки тому

      Think he means diameter rather than radius. If he had wheels with a 29” radius that would be a 58” wide wheel. Unless he’s riding a “penny farthing”. If you’ve never heard of a penny farthing bicycle, look it up. However, best golf coach on you tube 👍👍

    Hi Zach; Your impact sounds like a heavy hit. My issue is not having speed thru the impact area & beyond. Turning the club upside down & swinging shows me where the speed should be but doesn't help when I'm swinging the club normally. How do I increase speed gradually from the top thru impact without being too fast from the top. I understand the concept of using gravity & "letting the club fall" but the majority of the time, I pull down from the top. The only clubs I swing really well, with balance & timing are SW & LW, likely because I'm not thinking of how far I have to hit the ball, because it takes no effort, as with other clubs, which, as soon as I know I have to hit a shot 100 yards or more, I immediately swing harder but not faster. I stay well connected when swinging easily for short shots but if I need speed, I lose connection from trying to swing faster. Thanks for any ideas you might have.

    2:09 29" radius wheels would mean you have a 58" wheel diameter. That's almost 5 feet.
