Cameron Champ, Joaquín Niemann and Tommy Fleetwood all have what's known as the heavy head.
This when their head moves down and back as the clubhead moves through impact. Your head doesn't move that way because you're not swinging that way. The head moves in the direction of force that we sent the club. For the heavy head you must swing in the proper direction and that is not toward the target.
Golf should not be a struggle. Golf should not be hard. Golf is easy if you know the secret.
Start playing golf well. Gain confidence and have more fun playing golf.

I've recently learned that the concept of the head moving in the direction of the swing is called, "The heavy head."
Hi, I recently see you this video: very interesting
Explanation and easy to follow it. I could not find this training club: I got you ready called? Does not produce anymore in these days? Could you help me to let me know where do I can find it ? Or related the product to train your drill? Thanks HR: email : hlu@telenet.be
What a great explanation of the head and pelvis movement. I am one of those that my head is way out in front and my follow thru does feel like my arms have ran out of room. I will surely need to work with a weight on the shaft. Thanks for the channel. High handicappers like me need all the help we can get.
This is gold.
The reason you only swing to that point : 18inches in front of the ball, is to allow the arms and hands to decelerate into the divot.
This deceleration of the arms allows the clubhead to speed up.
The faster the arms travel, the slower the clubhead moves!
Well kinda. Exactly why and how are not that important but simply understanding the concept will improve your clubhead speed tremendously. It sounds like you've got it.
I've golfed for over 20 years but using your advice for a couple days now... I'm crushing it with less effort. TY
It's crazy what the golf club can do when used properly.
I'm happy to hear that I've done another person good! How 'bout a tip? www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=D9KLSZE47S8AY
People pay hundreds for a new driver or irons and hundreds more on DVDs and lessons that do them little or no good. I have truly simplified the swing to the point of almost near ridiculousness and it's transforming people's golf games. This is my only source of income these days as the company I worked for has gone under.
My wife keeps saying to me, "Why are you just giving it away for free? You're wasting your time!" I'd like to prove her wrong.
Play well! Thank you.
Greg brilliant I have played for 40 years and nobody has explain the physics so well
I really appreciate the way you take the athletic motion from other sports we have all played and translate that into simple golf understanding. Cheers,
I'm sure not product talk about you. I'm sorry, but I don't understand what it is you're asking.
All of the several explanatory videos so far are rare examples of something Ben Hogan said about golf instruction - that too many instructors describe in great length what a good golf swing looks like, which is a bit like teaching a toddler, who is trying to learn how to open a door, by describing what an open door looks like after it has been successfully opened, when what would actually help is teaching the toddler first how to turn a door knob.
So, congratulations for finding one major door knob to the golf swing and showing us how to turn it. I went outside to my backyard range net with my driver and absolutely smashed the ball four times in a row in the center of the clubface. That's a good start.
Also, I think this technique will help my brother get back into the game of golf, which he had given up years ago due to the "full body yips."
Because the thing that is being taught here is something for us to actively "do" and we can "do it" fairly hard, "effort-wise", it is something that can be learned fairly quickly, and hopefully mastered fairly quickly. We shall see in terms of my own game. I'm 56 years old, with a 12 handicap. I intend to deploy this fairly quickly on the golf course and shall report back anything significantly positive.
One more thing. On one of these videos (I forget exactly which one) it is shown that this move is very active with the body and hands and arms, especially the right (trail) arm, when making the holy grail move downward and outward with the club shaft. He then mentions, almost in passing, in one of the captions, that this is not an instruction to "let the arms fall" or to "let the club fall" from the top of the back swing. What a relief! I am so tired of that advice, which is nearly universal in golf swing instruction, even with many instructors in whom I have great respect otherwise.
Thank you. The more I think about it the easier and simpler it gets. I can't believe how people have complicated this simple move. I never heard that about Hogan but it makes sense.
You sir are are a great teacher-------------------------God bless you in thought
Wow the power of that swing, great show as usall man🇬🇧👍
If your going to show the flag use correct spelling.
Hello, my name is Christian Hcp 10.9 I live in Austria (not Australia) I am 59 years old and have been playing golf for 10 years. Nobody has ever explained the golf swing to me so clearly. A completely new understanding of the processes. I finally found a free passage without complicated twisting. Great, thank you very much and all the best. Christian
Sorry my english is not the best!
I'm glad to hear my videos have helped. Understanding the swing makes a huge difference. If I've helped you maybe consider making a donation? www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=D9KLSZE47S8AY
Thank you.
Another great tip! Seems to help keep the rear elbow tucked in to your side.
Tks for the head direction tip.
I find it interesting that you are placing the weight in just about the same spot as we balance the club on a swing weight scale. I don’t believe that is a coincidence
Just had a quick look on youtube about the heavy head in the downswing that ever tour player does and you are the only one that as brought this forward. Thank you so much and the rest are just a bunch of idiots missing such an important thing.
I don't think most people see it or even know it exists.
Good pick up!
Love your content ,keep it up
re the head, i have some books from the early 70's by Mr X, he was a middle aged englishman who looked at and analyzed the pro's of his time Nicklaus, etc, golf monthly in those times published his articles and he became something of a cultish figure, one thing he noted was what he called 'the Heavy head' basically describing what you are describing and seen in your Cameron champ vis, he used some photos of the pros and they were all doing it with their heads to some degree, very interesting features sir. cheers ps using his own analysis he turned himself into a scratch player from mid handicapper !!
For me (a chronic "over-the-topper") your description of what the HEAD does is the "Holy Grail". This one move completely eliminates my over-the-top! Yipeeee!!!
Yes. I worked with a player just recently who's a chronic OTT player and once I got him swinging in the proper direction the OTT was instantly gone and he was hitting soft draws.
Amazing swing
Jack’s first move initiates his swing by turning head away from the ball. I also started using a small broom as a swing aid with proper grip and full swings, right shoulder pointing at the target. I’m 62 and have developed serious club head speed and better balance. I’ve lately applied a “low, slow and go” takeaway technique and shot 7 over 2 weeks ago after not playing for 6 weeks.
Hi new to your channel, what a video you are so right that all good players do this, how come i missed it ? You are the only one who as brought this up and its so important . thank you
Baader-Meinhof
@@HolyGrailOfGolf great videos! Do you give individual lessons?
i,m a five handicapper and to be honest , i have not seen this guy hit many balls, i got some funky moves sometimes when i'm not playing well, but i guarantee everyone that when i am swinging the club in the garden and not hitting balls my swing is as good as it will ever be
I purposely don't show myself hitting many balls because it's not about me, it's about you. I'm trying to convey ideas that change the perception of what it is to strike a golf ball and I don't want people imitating me. I want them to think on their own and truly change without attempting imitation which most people are doing after watching a PGA golf tournament. PGA tour players are elite and flexible athletes and most of us simply can't do what they do but that doesn't mean we can't play golf well.
You, as a 5 index know that.
I found your channel long ago and have always enjoyed the content. Recently, I was surfing UA-cam trying to find some validation for idea #28719913 I've had about my swing. Found the holy grail, and realized you'd found it and did a great job explaining what I was trying to figure out. In regards to the head movement, I feel it's this: the golf swing is universally recognized as down, out and forward. What isn't taught, is that down and out are the only forces actively applied. Forward happens. Any effort actively forward throws it off, making me hook the ball. Great work! Im a fan. -Alan
Yep! As soon as a player tried to either help the ball into the air or help it forward they've screwed the whole thing up.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf "swing to the finish" or "you want the most speed after the ball" now strike me as two of the most damaging mantras of my past 40 years. Back surgery, pain and a game that changed with the weather were the result. I shot 67 this weekend at North Creek (Southaven, MS) doing nothing but swinging straight out in front of me, 90 degrees to the target. It is so easy, I kept waiting for it to betray me. Instead, it kept getting easier. Again, bravo!
@@speedofsoundllc Yes! The idea of speed after impact is not only stupid it's also almost impossible to get any sort of consistency. Where in front of the ball? How far? When do I ever stop swinging? It's nuts!
67? On a regulation par 72?
How are you working the ball? Path, face angle, combination of both? Going to try this tonight.
Great explanation, funny I took some video and compared side to side swing pics compared to pros… my head was more upright , not down like Fleetwood and my typical shot is fade to slice. Now working on bending into it with head Down behind ball…
The heavy head isn't intentional it's an effect of proper intention. You shouldn't be trying to make it happen, it should just happen. It's all about the direction you send your force. Your head will always move in the direction of your intended force.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf the best players have head down at impact mine is straight up, and away, then I crowd myself, then slice
@@markhuru If you're fading or slicing the ball you're not using the club properly. If you swing it in the proper direction it works almost magically.
Great video, I’m really starting to enjoy learning this... I’ve tried so many different ways swinging I’ve lost count.... and now I understand why my head keeps chasing forward... time to work work work....
Lol
What does heavy head do for your swing and how to achieve it??
Does the back foot remain flat on the ground into impact?
Thanks, looked like your biceps stayed pretty attached to the chest.
Hi, this is great content, what is the weight called?
igotcha swing weight www.dynamicbrands.com/products/igotcha-ready-warm-up-swing-weight
Are are Arms completely straight at impact I heard they’re not completely straight until 3 feet after contact
That's right, they are not completely straight at impact and they shouldn't be.
NO SLEDGEHAMMER! lol.. 🤣🤣
what is your opinion on back weighting the grip like Nicklaus did?
Do you mean counterweighting the butt end of the grip? If so, I haven't tried it but I did play with the pro who makes and sells that thing and another guy that used it and loved it.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf yes, it acts as a counter weight and I would think would help the vertical drop in the Holy Grail swing without trying to hold lag
My shots tend to stay right almost a slice what am I doing wrong
Are you starting the downswing with lower body or swinging the handle to the spot where the imaginary ball would sit outside your right thigh
Stop thinking so much. You don't think about swinging a baseball bat, you just do it. The same works with golf when you have the proper intention.
I have an iGotcha. Got it out after watching this. Really effective in making the Holy Grail Swing. Can't help but swing the center of the shaft toward the imaginary ball. You should sell these!
I put a link on several pages to Amazon to buy them but I think they're sold out now.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf Do you have your own store? You should be collecting some of the proceeds
@@timotaot7125 Not yet. We're working on it.
What about the video where you say it’s like a upper cut punch
So unfortunately I hurt my left knee/calf at the range, perhaps I was twisting too much?
Please post a video in the proper way to use the lower body in the downswing. Ty!!
Prior to hurting your knee how was it going? I imagine it was going well and you started to see just how far you can hit it and that's when you got hurt. We all have a natural speed that we move. There's a saturation point at which more effort results in less efficiency.
Take a look at this one: ua-cam.com/video/BF4P7RL3eM0/v-deo.html That should explain the lower body. If not, let me know.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf thanks for responding. So I was working on trying to drive the right shoulder down and turning the pelvis in an attempt to figure out how driving the right shoulder down and also directing power in the direction of the shaft you stuck into the ground.
I will check out the video, thanks for identifying one for me.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf btw, lol, I'm 51 now, in medium shape, 6'1" and 280, down 20 lbs since working from home, use elliptical daily and the strongest part of me by far are my legs/quads. (Threw discus and shot for about 10 years).
@@louispounds7486 If you do it right it shouldn't require a whole lot of thinking. It's a very natural move. Relax and let your body do what it needs to do.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf thanks, I will try as soon. As possible. Seeing Orthopod this Friday morning.
Are you open to me sending you a video when I can to give me suggestions?
Paul Goydos is a guy who really does that last part you talk about nicely. The club is barely moving by the time he is finishing his follow through. All the speed is before he’s made impact then he is literally putting on the breaks / syrupy. And pros been teaching that stupid swish drill forever where they want to hear the swish after the ball. Dumb....
it's like golf for the most part is taught all wrong, focusing too much on the body movement instead of it being a reaction to the arm swing. i have one of those blue gotcha things, i'll have to dig it out of my stuff. thnx.
How can anyone teach golf without ever saying what direction you swing the club? Hogan said it is like describing what an open door looks like to a toddler and then expecting the toddler to figure out how to turn the knob to open the door.
What’s that device called
Igotcha Swing Weight: amzn.to/3eT4i6M
I think one of your secret moves is that your right hip externally rotates during your downswing. This helps your hips rotate to the finish. Do you agree?
I DID NOT SEE THE FALL FORWARD?
Do you have any takeaway videos , takeaway to backswing
I do somewhere ... The thing is that if your intention is correct you don't need to think too much about the backswing. It should happen naturally because of what you intend to do with it.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf I fully agree, how about a video where you discuss what you intend and how you execute the motion. There needs to be some level of depth to the turn. I’m stuck in a rabbit hole currently.
@@titanfx9156 Have you seen the basic videos from my channel? I think I cover that stuff. I'm working on a website currently so please let me know in detail if things aren't clear in the other videos.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf when I tried to look I couldn’t find any in particular on the takeaway. I’ll go look again.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf on your playlist section there is only one folder. So I’m browsing that currently. Not sure which ones are which. If you have the time could you sort out some into playlist. That would be great and very helpful to navigate what videos will help with any issue we might be having.
I think you deserve a beer or 2 on me . . .
I'm happy to hear that I've done another person good! How 'bout a tip? paypal.me/OverhandGolf
I'm kinda surprised that I'm not getting more tips and donations. I mean, people pay hundreds for a new driver or irons and hundreds more on DVDs and lessons that do them little or no good. I have truly simplified the swing to the point of almost near ridiculousness and it's transforming people's golf games and only a few nice people have given me a donation.
I don't mean to guilt you into anything. You do what feel is right. I don't want to be a jerk, but my wife keeps saying to me, "Why are you just giving it away for free? You're wasting your time!"
I'd like to prove here wrong.
Play well!
The head will move opposite to the direction not towards it. If your club goes in the head will tend to move out towards the ball. If your club swings out, your head will tend to move away from the ball. COG will be maintained or you will fall on your ass or face,.
That's the common thought but simply not true. Even though the arms and club are way past the direction of force by the time the head moves, the intent still drives the head in that direction. What you're advocating is opposing the force with an offset of weight in the opposite direction. We know this isn't true as we lean toward the direction we're swinging in any sport. People actually do what you're advocating and it's detrimental to a good golf swing. They do it because they're thinking of themselves standing up straight. In a golf swing we're bent forward and the inertia of the arms and club will pull us up and around, we don't need to do it with an offset of our COG.
o how u help !!!!!
oh jeez another backyard lesson, this guy will break your back if you swing like this...swing your swing, learn how to aim, learn how to putt, hit the range, this guy is an amateur and not even a very good one...how can you aim this swing? You can't
To aim any swing, you use your body and decide what type of spin you want, draw or fade. He has a very good idea that has helped a lot of people. You don't like it, don't watch. Move along.
"Gimmick"...not a system, left arm straight or be the ball is better
