Thanks for watching!
This is the importance of picking a close in intermediate, trusting it and lining up to that line. It is well known that humans can always nail a right angle but underestimate acute and overestimate obtuse. A university of Wisconsin paper showed that at 75 degrees we underestimate 6 degrees and at 105 degrees we overestimate 7.5 degrees but we nail 90 degrees. Pick a point 18 inches in front of your ball on the target line and come in at a right angle. Always right on.
Do you have a link bro?
Interesting, would like to read that also, could you link for us Rob.
Thx!

Or you could you Nicklaus's method. Jack Niclaus had in actual fact 4 aspects of his alignment routine. 1. Ball 2. Target. 3. Intermediate target about 3-4 feet in front of ball 4. Marker about 3-4 feet behind the ball. He would then ensure that all these points lined up, set his club square to this imagined line and then set his body perpendicular to this line. That was the intent, however, Fred Griffin in the 80's showed that most tour players set up very slight open with their shoulders.
This is exactly the video I was looking for. Parallax, visually explained, Thanks Brendon!
Great job Brendan! The vision parallax gets even worse if you are left eye dominant but play right handed. I've been fighting this my entire golfing life. It takes discipline to go thru the routine for every shot in practice. I've really focused on it over the past month and it is paying off. I'd seen other players use this method and it has worked for me. Malaska's practice station works very well for training the eyes.
Birdie Gof I am exactly that and have the worst time lining up, especially putts. I use alignment sticks on the range every time, use my putting mirror, and have to do a Mickelson style 3 foot circle putt drill in order to be able to aim on the course. Glad to know it’s not just me!
then why are 90% of tour pros lead eye dominant? and about 20% of the population are cross eyed dominant
Wow! I cant believe I've been playing golf as long as I have, and not heard of this! What a great tip!
Thanks Brendan. I'm gonna test this right now in my front yard and use my jerk neighbor's house as a reference point. :)
Or you could do what Nicklaus did and find a spot a divot or discoloration in grass a foot or so from ball and set up parallel to that line, and just focus on that spot and don’t let the target alter your alignment to that spot.
That looks like a tough course.....
Thanks so much for this video. Alignment is so difficult in golf! This routine is very helpful!
i actually think its the most difficult thing about golf
I started using this technique about a month ago and it has worked very well for me. Thank you very much for sharing!
Pick a spot in line a yard or two ahead of the ball, line up square to that line and hit over it. Done! Simple!
Just stand straight up and make sure your feet, hips and shoulders are all parallel to each other. Now turn your head 90 degrees to your left (for right handed golfers) and see where your left shoulder is aimed. The shoulder should NOT be aimed exactly at your target of course. It should be aimed slightly left since your are standing not directly over the ball. How much left? That depends on how far you are standing away from the ball. With a driver it may be 3 feet. With a wedge , maybe just one foot or less.
You have just taken aiming properly out of the equation, so if your ball doesn't go where it is supposed to go, don't blame your aim. blame your swing path and/or your clubface alignment.
Great alignment drill! Took this to the range and at first my old instincts were fighting it off. Kept at it until I started to hit the range distance signs. Wow! What a tip!
I had to watch this a couple of times to get the jest of it. I also like that it’s a sound pre shot routine.
I’m putting it to practice Lol..
Thx Brendon!!
Gist
@@seth1455 Jest is correct, watching this CLOWN is hilarious !
Or you can use the logo or a line on the ball, line it up to target and then square up to the ball. Adjust for draw or fade.
"TRUST IT" is the key! Swing toward your target. 😉👍🏻
Great tip! Thanks for the information. You are spot on when you mention that corrective alignment after a couple of waggles.
Just watching the video makes me want to look for a point in The distance that is left of the target, and see if it prevents the brain from going crazy.
Excellent. I often set up too far right, then end up over drawing the ball; especially mid irons
Great video, I’m a high level Senior Am golfer and have always struggled or neglected my alignment, can’t wait to try. I also enjoyed the the Novasel videos.
Thx B!
Great tip! Plus. Now we know where they got the term "Alignment Rod". Seriously, I can't wait to give this a try. Half the battle is getting aligned properly.
louis lazarus 🤣🤣🤣
Wow, this explains why I think I pull a lot of my shots and have to aim what feels like 10 yards right to get it on target. How did I not think of this, LOL.
Thanks for the drill, I'll be trying it out at the range this week.
It's kinda confusing because on a golf course your intermediatry target wouldn't be 3ft in the air. To me, it looks like the base of that alignment stick actually goes left, while the top of it goes right. So i guess feeling slightly left aligned is actually pretty straight.
100% I realized this on the range yesterday. I was subconsciously opening my shoulders at address as it felt like I was too closed to the target. I ended up hitting a lot of pull hooks or big blocks. Put my shoulder back on the right line, no more big misses.
Excellent drill. I seem to always struggle with alignment which then leads to swing faults 👍
I'm heading to the range to try this out today! Love this tip and makes so much sense.
...billiards...horseshoes....lawn darts... marbles... 😂👋 Great topic, keep up the great work!
that's what I like to do on the street or in the park on the side walks, awesome golf tip.
People thought im boring twat talking your talk.Im convinced you nailed it.Looking forward to tomorrow .Many thanks x
One thing you could have mentioned since you were on a perspective sidewalk is that some people that use a club or practice stick for range alignment tend to set it so your feet point to the target. You have to set it parallel to your swing target line or your path wil be a little to a lot(on shorter shots) to the right of your intended swing path. Does that make any sense the way I put that?
I wish I had the last 10:32 of my life back.
Great drill. But do you close one eye to check if the shaft runs through the ball and intermediate target
Must have missed something. Once you have everything lined up correctly looking down the line from behind, but how do you orient your shoulders at address to be parallel to the target line? I could maintain club alignment when behind the target line but at address I have no assurance of lining up square to that target line. You have a ruler on the ground but that doesn't exist on the course.
U just don’t change the distance from the clubface to your shoulder u set up behind the ball. From face on to target it is easier to to be square
I agree with Tom M's comment. Without the yardstick you can be square to the ball but many degrees off parallel to target.
When you're standing behind your ball, you set the clubface square to your body; in other words, your clubface is perpendicular to your shoulder line. Wherever you point the clubface when you set up, as long as you don't change that initial relationship between club and shoulders, your shoulders will be parallel left and in perfect alignment. The simplicity of it is this: all you need to focus on is aiming the blade at an intermediate target and shoulders will be in alignment. Hope that clears things up a bit.
Don’t get confused people. This is a great way to consistently have your club face and body square. it doesn’t mean that’s all you do. You still need to have your intermediate target and than put your already “aligned” body, parallel to that. Alignment is hard and you need to work on it constantly. But this drill or pre-shot will definitely help
@@dmkappa62 I understand and this does eliminate some of the variables in what I call poor aim. I think you nailed it though. As in putting, you should have an in-line target a few feet from the ball that you attempt to align yourself with (this is easier said than done). When you are hitting a 150 yard shot, a mere 3 degrees of misalignment (which is not much) means you are off the flagstick by + 7 yards, even assuming a perfect swing plane and clubface alignment.
Great video, love the passion you bring to the table in these videos too. I would love to see you hit that ball at your target tho... lol keep it going
Great tip... also did you build that alignment stick wings for the club? That seems pretty useful in training your eyes to trust your square and aligned. Kevin Na is the first golfer I think of that does that every shot, EVERY shot even putts.
It is called HAWKEYE, golf club alignment tool
Thanks for this simple alignment method
Craziest thing lol I was watching your video and you started talking about Bill and that is my swing coach.. I take lessons down at Winstar from him
Alignment is a huge issue for me. Thanks for the tip!
No doubt. I used to look at it as a single point in distance and line up closed. Oh and my overcompensation is a pull hook.
bummer, I was waiting for you to hit a ball a the stop sign!
Lol
Tip that work best for me was from Monte, he stated to pick two intermediate spots about 6 inches apart and try to kick a field goal. worked wonders.
Would this approach to alignment work for putting?
I pick a close intermediary target then set up to it(I practice setting up the same to the ball every time). Then I simply play the shot having picked the correct club. Point is I do not check the target so don't see the parallax effect ;) Under 100 yards I visualise the shots. If I put a good swing on it I get a good result.
I knew there was a reason I was missing greens by 30 or 40yards. My new go to excuse “alignment”...thanks Brendan!
Mid to high handicappers tend to aim left with their shoulders. Everytime I fix the shoulders to aim parallell, the first response is " I feel like im aiming way right". Which is what you would feel if you are use to aiming too far left.
Very good!
Great advice, I'm sure that's why I have a tendency to pull my iron shots left, will be trying it out later today for sure 😀
I just aim the face first, then square my body to that. Works pretty well and is simple to do. Stand behind your ball, align with your target, pick an intermediate spot two or three feet in front of your ball and visually lock that spot in. Stand beside your ball, align club face to that intermediate spot, square up your stance and fire. Works for me.
Will this work for putter alignment?
Not really because with putting your eyes are basically over the ball
But u have to rotate you head the right way to see the line in putting (retain neck posture and rotate towards line)
Good stuff 👍. I'm a left eye dominant right handed player. Will try this for sure.
me too. have you found anything interesting to help confused brains like ours when it comes to aiming specifically for our condition? I know putting is really hard for me to line up putts too where my eyes see the line.
videom unfortunately it’s something I’ve struggled as well. I haven’t found anything
Yes, where do I buy the kylo ren lightsaber alignment stick device.
Going to try this tonight, thanks!
It will help if a dash line added , great presentation, im playing dead straight to the target,
Great vid👌🏻👌🏻
I really enjoyed the video.
Awesome video!
in my case...i dont trust my eyes.mmif i align ok i feel miles left...not easy to deal with very nice idea ill try it
Very good, thanks.
Thank you for this tip
That's what Nicklaus said to do but he had a spot before the ball and the intermediate spot. Good video thanks.
How does that work on a golf course where there are no alignment aids or a straight line from your ball to the target.
That's what u do by holding up the shaft. Shaft in your eyes thru the ball and to the target makes a straight line going thru the intermediate target.
I like it although it seems it may cause some shoulder tension...
I subbed, Good video makes alot of sense
I have never wanted someone to hit a golf ball more than when you setup at the end. 😂
Huh! While the ball target looks further right, to me, the right line of the sidewalk looks further left as you stand to the side of the ball. And I wonder if points on the ground look even further left if they are downhill, or less further left (or, even right) if they are uphill.
yea i just asked the same thing, the base of the stick goes left.
1:41 you're welcome 6:00 super bonus
Im in
Thankyou
Great alignment video
Going out tomorrow
great video, #1 amateur issue !
Wondering if this is also a problem while putting?
Yes it‘certainly an issue. Why else are the majority of PGA-Tourplayers using a line on the golfball?
Great tip akin too railway tracks but a lot saver lol 😂😅😅 to do liked 👍👍 only got 140 subscribers but I'm new channel
Some golf tips make sense, some don't. Each of us who have continued to seek the secret listen and make that judgement before deciding, this one has value in it to me and I will give it a whirl.
Good tip..love the cap.
I have seen so many pros use this type of pre-shot routine without ever talking about it. Pick your line, set your shoulders, trust it.
Worth a shot
We make so many adjustments and compensation based on misperceptions.
This is possibly the best alignment still I've ever come across
Excellent
I always thought and still do think it makes no sense, on a flat green, to stand behind the ball, line it up, then stand 90° to where you were standing and hit the ball.
So it seems are you setting up with the club shaft perfectly vertical at address. Nobody plays golf like that.
Is this why on tv a lot of shots look like a shank to the right?
Yes!
Yeah, no. I don't understand.. Without an alignment stick though, how do you make sure you go directly setup at 90degrees to the golf ball?? I mean sure Ill keep my shoulders nice and square while I move to the adress position but then what? How do I know Im aligned? Maybe I setup my nice squared relation to the club behind the ball but im at 47 degrees to the side of the ball at adress so I still wont shoot down the target line that way...??? Is this just a longterm drill? Like you get used to lining up with a alignment stick until you dont need it anymore? I thought this was an actual trick not a long term thing.
I don't agree with your statement that when you're at address the target looks/feels as though it's 20 yards to the right. It only looks to the right when you look at the intermediate point. In truth, and this has been proven by Mike Malaska, Eric Cogorno and several other coaches, some of whom you've done video sessions with, when you are at address the target actually looks 20 yards to the left (for a right handed golfer), and that is what prompts over the top and pull shots, and to compensate for the optical illusion you need to actually hit what feels like 20 yards to the righ of th intermediate point to be on target. So you've got the illusion partially wrong but the correction for the illusion correct.
This just might be the best video you have ever made!! Excellent!!
Good informative vid. Guy is way too wordy though. Also one fly in the ointment. He says keep the relationship between shaft and body when pointing it down the line to establish your target line and then move into the setup position and keep that same relationship however when hitting an iron you need to lean the shaft a little forward ahead of the bal so you cannot maintain that same relationship.
Wow you are making this way to hard, pick an intermediate on the ground much shorter like within 2 feet, of course its gonna look odd if you pick an intermediate in the air so far away
Awesome video man I now realize that Rickie Fowler uses this because if you watch him he takes a few practice swings steps out lines up like this and never takes his hands off again until after he hits
I just always aim my irons 10-15 feet left to compensate for this. Works
Sounds like you have it all figured out! Whats your handicap?
Jonathon Stodola +1
This is what I am currently playing with myself perfect timing
Looks like your in long beach?
Yes!
why didn't you hit the golfbal! :(
Yeah like there's sidewalks down the middle of every golf course I play and playing golf in the street is always encouraged...
I had a brain tumor nine years ago affected my eyesight this will come in really handy
Love the Kylo Ren prop on the club.
"The emperor has no clothes." That doesn't make any sense at all. Keeping your shoulders square has nothing to do with whether or not you are aligned to target. You can have all the square shoulders you want, but still be misaligned to target. Having square shoulders doesn't automatically align you to the target. The only helpful tip here, is how your perception changes from a down the line view, to a side view.
You completely missed the point
Eye dominance man. Left eye dominance wont look the same as right eye dominance and vice versa.
Mom, did you see that guy?? He really drove his ball way off the course I guess. Probably needs to work on his alignment. That's right, dear. No mom, he looks way right!
I was with you until the last bit.
But isn't it now illegal to have an aiming stick for his feet???
That poor mother and daughter walking their puppy at 1:53
A head on view of you aligning to the target would have more beneficial. Instead of just looking at your back on the video.
👍
