This video has given me the lightbulb moment. Can't wait to get on the range and start putting it into practice. And the hold set up and drill I'm going to put into my pre shit routine
Mark, just want to say how much tip 3 helped me out. 8 index who has gotten used to a pretty significant "power fade" with my driver. Had been working with the swing thought "hit it to right field" or "hit 7 o clock on the ball", but felt like my face was still open. Tried tip 3 at the range last night and surprise surprise, straight drives! Even managed to work a couple draws in, which I have NEVER been able to hit before. Thank you!
Awesome Mark! Tip no 3 really is a game changer 🏌️♂️💣😀👍
I used that release drill towards the end of the video and a slightly stronger grip, and those two in concert finally allowed me to start snapping some left. I backed off the release feel a smidge and tried a similar drill to feel what a more square clubface felt like at impact instead of post impact, and finally I'm hitting a more reliable small pull fade. And man it feels good - I'm sending Mark a Christmas card this year.
Thanks for the advice to stop slicing the driver. I tried them out during a practice game today and had some success. Tip 2 regarding the grip position and wrist angle was particularly helpful for me.
Keep up the great videos and podcast.
Watched this yesterday and went to the range. Didn’t hit a single slice. I couldn’t actually believe the shots I was hitting, and consistently too. Thank you for this I feel it was the thing holding me back 🙏🙏
Mark, could you please cover the advantages or not of a counter balanced drive shaft?
Thanks.👍
These videos are one of the many reasons I subscribe and have watched you for years. The reminders of fundamentals are so good. Thanks bruh. Tip 3 is the one to stop my chicken wing follow through creeping back in. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The best advice I've heard about the release, of which I struggle with. So simply put Mark. I'll try that down the range on Sunday. Thanks.
Great let me know if it helps.
I was down the driving range today Mark, trying your tips on on the release and keeping a flat wrist.
Wow, what a difference, no slicing but a gentle fade. The bonus out of this was my ball speed. As I was more free to swing and not get stuck. I hit a ball speed of 156mph but on average of 152mph. Up from 140mph. Thanks Mark, happy days.
Very fundamental and so helpful! If anyone can absorb those tips and feeling and awareness…can’t thank you enough.
Thanks Mark, your tip 3 could be what I am missing to achieve more consistent direction. I have not seen the release explained like that before. I will try it at the range tomorrow.
Let me know if its helps.
@@MarkCrossfield Mark, yes I think so, definitely less curvature not totally straight but in play tight fairway straight which is good enough, thanks
Great instructions Mark I will be keeping these in mind thanks.
Cool hope it helps.
Thanks so much for this video, used it at the range today and have already seen some consistency! On the course tomorrow...
Good luck
Great video Mark, very helpful indeed. One that I think is very useful to most golfers and that can be watched again and again if needed to refresh the memory 👍🏻
Glad it helped.
Very fortunate in I was advised to go for lessons right from the start over 20 years ago with Lee Kopanski (also on youtube) at our local driving range. After about 12months, my draw shots and distance were the envy of my fellow society members. Now with lack of play, practice and age, my swing has altered slightly. These videos are reminding me of how I used to draw and what I need to do to get back on track. However, I do feel the need to go back to more lessons (with a pro suited to me). Also, I was watching your desire to increase swing speed. This made me realise that with age I had become lazy. I have now improved swing speed toward where i was years ago, now at point of regaining accuracy that is lost when swing speed increased. Great videos, informative with humour. Liking Muppets v ?? series too, especially when you play near my home in Spain. Would like some tips on "old swingers" pun intended, to keep reasonably competitive for longer. Will be 67 this year. Thanks, and keep up the good work. Great surname too!!!
Thanks Mr Crossfield. Haha
Brilliant, all of them. Thanks mark!
Thanks for watching
Quality as always, Mark. And so easy to understand.
Brilliant. Hope it helps.
I will be trying that 3rd drill tomorrow! I suffer with a push slice and this video has just made so much sense! Thank you!
Let me know if it helps.
Brilliant mate, cheers. Looking forward to trying Tip 2 especially 👍🏻
Let me know how you go. 👍
Love it!!! It’s affirming to know that I’ve done each of these things to work out my tee shots with driver… but, I am still working on the release as I still get snap hooks every so often. Thanks Mark!
Thanks for watching.
I watched this video this morning and tweaked my grip ever so slightly based on Mark’s direction. Huge difference in my shot shape from a baby draw/draw to very nearly straight. The problem was I must be used to aiming more right expecting the draw only to find my drives in the right rough. Still shot sub 80 for 44 stableford points. More Mark - more.
Loads more coming
Thanks! Come to the east coast of the USA
I had always been a draw player. For a few months i just sliced every drive right. Last week i finally discovered the big thing that caused it. I just choked the grip on every shot. It prevented me from closing the club face and everything went right.
Just loosening my grip fixed the problem. Still have plenty to work on though
I take my slice out with setup closed stance swing along foot line baby draw, straight or slight pull. Works for me
Like it
Mounting the Align grip ribbed area so that it points towards the target thus sitting in the knuckles/fingers. Sneaky cheeky Mark! Its damn brilliant and something that makes sense to me. How do you like it?
Thanks Mark. Great instruction as always. Can you do a what’s in my bag video? I know you play Srixon ZX4 irons and it would be helpful for us avg golfers to hear your explanation as to why you use the various clubs. I have reduced my handicap to a 7 and was thinking of going to a players distance iron set. Everyone keeps talking about the loss of spin. Would be good to hear your perspective. Thx, Ric
Can someone please explain the release a little better. The tail hand overtake the lead hand but below. Any examples will be appreciated
I need to know how to stop closing the face, keep hooking everything left. Any tips Mark?
Look at your grip, that’s the best starting point for hook shots.
@@MarkCrossfield thank you sir! Will have to do some investigating.
Funnily enough I used to be a slicer, seem to have taken it too far the other way.
@@pickitupgolf276 same. Used to be the banana right now I'm banana left
Weaken your grip
@@azahansafetyman1161 Haha! Good fun huh?
At least I'm consistent. I hit about 120 shots on Trackman, only 5 were right of the centre line haha
Why so many golfers still slices the ball when there is millions of videos out there on fixing the slice…? Because 90% of all the slicers are PATH. Other 10% is open face, grip, release, ball position and space. Most slicer thinks u hit the ball at the farthest pt of the arc. The club should come back inside right after impact. NO! Even with a driver, just like an iron. The lowest pt for an iron in 3in in front of the ball. For driver, the farthest pt of your swing arc should be still 3in in front of the ball while swinging up. The driver doesn’t not come back in after impact, it should still traveling out or atleast towards “right field” after impact. Do this while the face is square or “facing target line” you will hit dead straight or a nice draw.
Mark great video and I hope you can now do some golf travel with Coach and Rory now that everything has opened up a bit more. Mark can you please do a video on if Stack and Tilt is any good? They say it simplifies the swing and is easier on the body. Please let us know your thoughts. Thanks again.
Absolutely
HAHAHA...you have adjusted your driver...the align is in the fingers of your left hand. I hate when I do that. Great info, keep it up.
Any tips on why my strike suffers when trying to shape shots. I particularly struggle when trying to hit a fade but find that strike is really compromised when trying to hit either a draw of fade.
Not rolling! Light bulb moment 💡
👍👍
thanks
Your welcome
I need help not drawing! Almost hoocking all my longer shots but not my shorter once. I come from the inside with my clubs but turn my wrists to quick i guess... atleast i have clubhead closed at inpact 4-6%. Tried alot diffrent "styles" and grips but still hit the ball closed at inpact. gripwise i´m pretty normal 2 knockles close to three... hcp 10
Start driving the turn in your entire body with your legs earlier during the downswing. It will make your clubface come over the ball more, resulting in a slice.
If you slice too much, simply turn later in your downswing
Why do you have ur align rib on the side?
Why do you prefer the align grip on sideways rather than the standard rib being on bottom?
I am just testing a neck setting. Once I am settled I will move the aling to the bottom. 👍
Maybe this video will help. My driver is either a high slice or a low duck hook. The only club in the bag I can't hit consistently.
It should help, but don't be afraid to get some one to one lessons.
@@MarkCrossfield I finally found a coach with a launch monitor. The others around my area just stand behind you and guess what you're doing wrong without data.
My head exploded
I have only taken up golf for 3 years i my late 50"s , (had to golf for work... all along for clients) but now I understand the game why its "golf" but now enjoy it. thanks for your "real candor" cheers
That's a nice jacket, I bet its close to a million dollars in this day and age.
Good stuff Mark.. Thanks
Follow exactly what Mark says!! Took me forever to learn this but I finally got to where my miss is left now not right. Tip 3 was the hardest to learn for me.
