I was a member a while ago for a couple months, but wanted to tell you, I still watch your videos and think of you as I practice. Weight Forward and Be Still. 😅
My dad watches your technique and I take golf lessons here in Oahu, today I used your swing, and I’ve never hit so many draws. My coach teaches the Mac O’Grady method and I feel like it’s impossible and so frustrating to hit a draw, not today, unreal. I’m a believer, mahalo Jim 🤙
2 1/2years ago my handicap was 36. I live in Australia but did Jims course and my handicap is 11.
Not sure how many 65 year olds can acheive this in such a short time. It hasnt been easy as Im still a very bad putter but many days I have been on every green in regulation. I practice heaps and set up exactly like Jim in this video and only think of keeping weight on my left foot throughout the swing. If I didnt do his course I recon my handicap would be about 32!
I thoroughly enjoy your approach. Saving the money will become a member soon.
Do yourself a favor. Join Jim's Academy. It is money well spent-- and you will love the results! The finest, no-nonsense, results-oriented teacher on the planet! Oh, and really funny! I love it and you will too!
This is pretty cool. I’ve been watching your videos for a while now. Thank you!
Jim, great video.
Can you show us a front view of how you set up like your club head direction
@jimvenetosgolf. Jim,,,,,with your method, have you adjusted the lie of your irons any?? Also, what shafts do you use,,,,,,Thx!!!! sc
@@PARDS2 The lie angle of your clubs must be fitted for you and your swing. Currently playing dynamic gold s300 in my irons and graphite design xstiff in my driver.
Hey Jim, been watching you for a few years now. Love your simplicity to the swing path. When your beginning your backswing do you open the face as you go up or keep it as squared as possible then sling it with your lead arm/shoulder?
Started with your swing ten days ago and am really happy: my irons - especially the short ones - are so much better than before. Of course I have to work on it but I already feel now after a short time that this is "my swing". So thank you. But one thing is crazy: since I started swinging your way my Driver does not work anymore. I tried it your way - no chance. And when I try to do the conventional Driver swing which was not to bad earlier I also get an incredible result. What do I wrong? Help ... Thanks, and best regards from Germany - Frank
Can you tell us where your ball position is for driver off the tee if your goal is a tight draw towards the middle of fairway? In the video, it appears that your ball is center to back of your stance (but that maybe due to camera angle). Thanks
It’s off my lead heel.
How many degrees closed is apprapo to target line. ?????????
That’s not the correct relationship of closed. I’m square to my target line which is where I want the ball to start. Check out my video on alignment on yt, I give a full breakdown. Or if you don’t want to search, sign up for my school to find that and many more great lessons on alignment and all things golf.
How far can you drive the ball with this method?
On average I hit it 290-300 w a 45” driver but I did hit it 393, 391, 389, 387, and 386 in a LD tour qualifier in 2009 w a 48” driver. Hit 5/6 in the grid, finished 6th/30 and missed qualifying for the next round by 6yds.
Are you specifically trying to hit a fade every time you hit DoD?
Not every time but definitely the majority of the time. I’ll hit both a draw and a fade off the deck based upon the situation on the course.
Hi Jim, How did Curtis Strange, Hall sutton, Annika Sorenstam, Seve Ballesteros to name a few play really good golf when it looks like they all move there head to the right side during the takeaway? thanks.
There are many golfers who have played at the highest level with swings that have extra moving parts. Those players are great enough to manage those extra moving parts but the avid golfer is not which is why I offer a simpler technique.
That makes sense. I have a 1.5 Handicap but find myself struggle to be consistent. I can shoot 68 or 75 @@jimvenetosgolf
With your technique do you feel the weight at all getting into the right side? seems you like all the weight on left foot? Are there any tour players who do that. thanks for your thoughts.
@@johnzoppi8913 consistency is achieved in my swing by shedding the variables and locking in to one swing thought.
@@johnzoppi8913 I keep 70% or more of my weight to my lead side throughout the swing. V1 did a study on tour pros and found that they keep more weight to their lead side than was realized and across the board, they keep more than 50% of their weight on their lead foot. Just because their bodies are moving it doesn’t mean that their weight is shifting. At the top of the backswing you will commonly see a lean to the lead side.
In your final setup for off the deck, you definitely looked square to the target line at address. Your preshot explanation was more closed, but either way, I'm seeing whats happening here with the stillness aspect of the swing. When I'm not still, my trail shoulder turns OUT towards the ball...every time...
nice video
Why can you adjust your pitching wedge distance yard by yard but not your driver?
Seriously? Ok…many reasons; irons are more versatile clubs than woods and hybrids, woods are meant to be hit w full swings and w your max clubhead speed, my driver is an x stiff shaft so if I make a half swing it won’t perform properly, my driver has 6.75 deg of loft, drivers are typically played off of a tee and finally if you want to hit driver from 35 yds off the green…have at it.
@@jimvenetosgolf Thank you. Yeah, I wasn't trying to be a jerk I was seriously asking. On rereading I can see how it could be interpreted as snarky (especially on the internet, right?)
@@asphaltmilkshake4596 👊
Hey I have used driver from 30 yards like a Texas chipper it works but 100yds good luck
@@singlestory2945 smh
Put a line tracer and hit 10 ball with this swing i wanna see if it work , ive tried but dont succeed in this position
The swing works. If you haven’t succeeded you aren’t doing it properly.
Where’s the dog? I believe in this method. I think if we never use driver, we would be better golfers.
but what happens when you play a round of golf? do you break 80?
I am a lifelong +2- +5 handicap. So…ya, chances are good I’m breaking 80.
@@jimvenetosgolf can you prove your distances you hit with trackman numbers?
@@DarthVader269 of course
@@jimvenetosgolf thanks
Your the master but I must disagree with the driver. It's posted on the tee to INSURE you hit up on the ball. Hitting up provides 'OVERSPIN' to the ball which delivers roll for max distance when it hits the ground. Love your swing concepts!
Incorrect friend. Hitting up is to reduce back spin not to create overspin. If you have overspin you’ve topped it.
My swing already produces low spin so we don’t need to hit up on the ball which allows me to play with a lower trajectory and have more control over the ball.
Promo*SM
My next driver will have a 6.75 loft, not a 9. Thanks Jim.
I wouldn’t do that unless you’re a plus handicap
@@jimvenetosgolf with the 9 loft , the ball disappeared into the clouds 😀trying to keep it low like yours.
Driver off the hard deck ?
He's out there operating without any decent restraint,
totally beyond the pale of any acceptable human conduct.
And he is still in the field commanding troops.
The horror… the horror…
Off the turf Jim. Too easy off the mat.
That may be true with irons, but not driver off the deck. In fact, your tendency is much higher to bounce the driver off the astroturf than grass. Much more difficult on artificial turf.
Seriously Sparky? That ball would have been smoked off of grass too. Bottom line is it doesn't matter what this guy does, there will always be haters on this media.
