I love the informal, “behind the scenes” vibe to this with the handheld camera. Ian did such a great job translating what Scott was saying into something a dummy like me can understand.
These swing journey videos are amazing. Watching Ian’s lessons definitely turned on the mental lightbulb for me. I felt like the swing path made perfect sense. Brought it to my instructor and we worked on it. I am hitting some of the best, most consistent shots I’ve ever hit. It even feels effortless compared to how I was swinging before and, if anything, I’ve gained some distance. The golf swing never made as much sense to me as it does now. Thanks for doing these videos, boys. Much appreciated.
guys, have you thought about doing a training session with @AthleticMotionGolf? i would love to see that, your fitting expertise combined with their technical approach to measure a swing
I'm loving the new camera angles. Ian's positions looks like Ricky Fowler's new swing patterns which looks great! The summer is gonna be bright for both of you fellas!
I am 100% nerding out on this modern swing journey topic..... to think back on how I learned about the swing ("Golf My Way" VHS tapes from Nicklaus back in 1989), makes me want to be 16 again and starting down the rabbit hole of golf all over again. Keep it going lads.
Thanks Guys that was really interesting and loved the handheld camera work Safe journey down to Orlando and have a great time, hope the weather is nice and hot and not too windy👍👍
Based on Cowx's own instructions as found in his 4 lesson series given at Smash Factory Golf 8 months ago, the downswing Ian is working on requires him to make a very strong, fast pivot in order to get the ball to travel straight or slightly to the right. Otherwise he will still hook. Cowx himself says this much pivot is beyond the physical capability of most average recreational golfers and especially seniors like me.
Im going through some major swing changes this winter myself and it's really good to hear two really good players struggling to shed old patterns and adopt new ones.
Love this series, Im going through this exact process with my coach and I have both problems! Fly away elbow and over the top. You guys are correct - this is a process and you have to be deliberate. Thanks for sharing!
Gold! I appreciate, well maybe love, all of your videos, but this series of videos I study. I watch them several times to pick up the nuances and purpose. Thanks for interpreting this into your thoughts and language. Also loved your warms ups and exercises. The new camera is very helpful in identifying certain movements. Thank you.
Great video gents. I am going through the exact same process with my coach. Much the same as what Ian is working on. Slowly coming along with a bit more consistency now. Scores are now within 4 or 5 shots of each round. This is the most pleasing thing. Been working on alignment more this last week and realised I have been setting up left of target. Starting to feel very happy with my progress.
awesome segment, gents. I use the Slingshot Phantom at the driver length and 5 iron length custom made. Tony does beautiful work. The product is solid and helps with timing, tempo, and speed. 🙏👍🙌🙌🙌💯💯💪
Keep up the training! Pretty impressive amount of balls that you are hitting per day. Best of luck taking all these thoughts and feelings to the course.
Great series!!! I’m going to really enjoy watching your practice routines during this off season up here in the grey white north. Looking forward to applying this to my own practice this winter
Brilliant video lads, loved the technicality of the content. And 150 balls a day 6 days a week WOW! Wish I could get down an indoor facility even half as much
Ian, if you watch your swings at 4:53 and 8:53 (at 0.25X), your shaft gets a hair steep in transition. The one you blocked at 7:55 looked better, right on plane.
😳, my last lesson was basically Ian’s drills. Smart ball, check. Similar training aid with the ball bearings in the shaft, except taking it to parallel in a vertical enough position to drop the bearings and start my swing. [to help with better wrist position at the top and avoiding ATL].
Are you by any chance using the Hackmotion wrist sensor that Cowx has used a lot? Not perhaps so much to change things, but to know precisely where your wrists are and what they are doing on good shots and bad ones.
It looks like my fault is closer to the bottom with the wrist release at the bottom, on my third lesson tomorrow on the swing journey. Have a TXG fitting in a couple of weeks so I hope it works out.
Ian, correct me if I'm wrong, but in the past you've talked about preferring your clubs bent flat to protect against the left miss - is that still the case with your current set, and if so, do you risk 'overdoing' this swing change by trying to achieve a dynamic toe-up?
Generally, I'm steeper the more bent my trail arm is. I prefer a straighter trail arm feel while turning into the lead shoulder. Still in to out just less steep
Great video guys - unrelated question... if i am currently gaming a Sim driver (First Gen), compared to the new tech available, am i leaving something on the table?
I don't know why, but as a 16 handicapper, I'm always shocked to learn that golfers of your ability still struggle with certain elements of your swing/game, and that you are also constantly looking to find ways to improve. To me, you are so good already that there's no need to practice any more! Great video, thanks for making content like this. One question, do you think a mid-handicapper could benefit from that "smart ball" device? I already have a version of the "orange whip" so I've got that covered, but the idea of having something to reinforce keeping things connected would be helpful I would imagine.
Watching Ian's swings at minutes 8 to 9, it does not seem to me that he is looping the lead arm and shaft as far behind him and as far down as he was demonstrating during his warmup. The nice shot at minute 9 seems to be the result of a fairly straight back and down, not a distinct looping motion behind him and dropping the club down low and shallow.

This series is really great, guys. It’s the perfect compliment to the equipment focus of the channel. Cheers!

I love this channel. How does it not have a million subscribers? To many people are watching the wrong golf channels on UA-cam. FWIW...
Matt’s hair and beard looking freshhh
I'm loving the new camera angles. Ian's positions looks like Ricky Fowler's new swing patterns which looks great! The summer is gonna be bright for both of you fellas!
Loving Matt’s Duval/Sorenstam head movement 👌

Loving the swing changes guys! Ian's is something I'm trying to mimic in my own. Good on both of you for putting in serious work 💪
Im going through some major swing changes this winter myself and it's really good to hear two really good players struggling to shed old patterns and adopt new ones.
Love this series! Looking forward to following song as I go through a swing overhaul myself. It’s a good reminder to stay patient with the changes.
Excellent update. Can`t wait to hear of playing results next season.
My makeup is dead on Ian’s. Better visual of dropping the arm rather than club. This is helping for me. Looking forward to upcoming videos.
Love this series, Im going through this exact process with my coach and I have both problems! Fly away elbow and over the top. You guys are correct - this is a process and you have to be deliberate. Thanks for sharing!
You guys have such great chemistry
I think I would pay actual money to watch you guys help the boys over on Bob Does Sports. That would be the most epic collab ever.
Aw no way lol! Half the magic is in watching them hit it all over the place and FP parachuting in to save them 😂
@@farfromprogolf2065 Agreed! BDS is perfect just the way it is. The 3 vs. Keegan Bradley was pure gold! Those boys are crushing it with their content.

Amazing video; great to see the differences in your journeys. Good luck boys!

This video is put together so well. Good work on the video and very informative as well
More of this!!! Very informative and inspirational for my next hitting session.

This is prime content guys. Keep 'em coming!

More vids like this Excellent love teaching aspect

You guys are the best!

I am working on the same swing Ian is, so seeing his practice session is great. Awesome work gents 👍
Wooohooo.....you guys are kicking ass!
Great series thanks so much
Ians rhythm is brilliant in his 80mph:sh swings and looks overall great, too.
Loving this, actually see a lot of similarities between what Scott teaches and LC’s methodology. Great stuff
My instructor uses this ball with me and works great. Every golfer should purchase one
Yep. I use mine whenever my arms get a little disconnected from my chest/torso. Fixes me right up. It's what, $40 USD? Worth every penny.
@@shanksgiving maybe for the name brand but I’ve seen them on Amazon for 13 bucks
love this
Fantastic stuff gents. Keep on hammering 💪🏼
Great vid lads
Can we see a review of the new taylormade P7MB and P7MC please?
I want to see some more 18 hole on the course action when the time and weather permits!
😳, my last lesson was basically Ian’s drills. Smart ball, check. Similar training aid with the ball bearings in the shaft, except taking it to parallel in a vertical enough position to drop the bearings and start my swing. [to help with better wrist position at the top and avoiding ATL].

Looking forward to on course matches
It looks like my fault is closer to the bottom with the wrist release at the bottom, on my third lesson tomorrow on the swing journey. Have a TXG fitting in a couple of weeks so I hope it works out.
Would you use the training aid pre round as well to prime the movement or is the ball and weighted club something for range sessions only?
Ian, correct me if I'm wrong, but in the past you've talked about preferring your clubs bent flat to protect against the left miss - is that still the case with your current set, and if so, do you risk 'overdoing' this swing change by trying to achieve a dynamic toe-up?
Do I spy a Stealth 2 headcover in Ian's bag? You gotta stick with the TSR 3!!!
Do you both compete in pro comps? If you do, what kinda scores do you get? Thanks, love the channel.
Generally, I'm steeper the more bent my trail arm is. I prefer a straighter trail arm feel while turning into the lead shoulder. Still in to out just less steep
Great video guys - unrelated question... if i am currently gaming a Sim driver (First Gen), compared to the new tech available, am i leaving something on the table?
Hey Guys, nice video, what resistance band is that?
got them off Amazon, there's a lot of different sets on there just pick one that comes with a handle/grip attachment
How tall are you guys?
What are your iron specs, club-wise (e.g. length, lie & shaft flex)?
Grip size? Wraps?
I don't know why, but as a 16 handicapper, I'm always shocked to learn that golfers of your ability still struggle with certain elements of your swing/game, and that you are also constantly looking to find ways to improve.

Dollar store foam dice does the same thing for about $2 🙂
Would love to see a video comparing the tech in SIK and LAB putters.
Ian what is the name of the weighted training aid?
What is difference between these swings and driver swing? Same thoughts?
Latest video from AMG go into detail about the stuff Ian is working on: ua-cam.com/video/YfvVnWwhQFc/v-deo.html
Marty’s contact on the half shots didn’t sound so good. On the full shots sounded flushed! 16:43
I see the TaylorMade driver made its way into the bag
Watching Ian's swings at minutes 8 to 9, it does not seem to me that he is looping the lead arm and shaft as far behind him and as far down as he was demonstrating during his warmup. The nice shot at minute 9 seems to be the result of a fairly straight back and down, not a distinct looping motion behind him and dropping the club down low and shallow.
Scott cowx needs to get some sleep 😂 half the time he is speaking in tongue’s
the "journey"
no idea how you think about all that and play half decent golf
