WHen I was out in the Desert filming with tour pro Berry Henson, Berry told me that wolrds longest lefty DAN (s)mackintosh had the absolute secret to hitting solid full and partial wedge shots. (I was like :huh???"). So after our workout I drove over to see Dan and found out it was a total swing philosophy and it really works. I have more videos coming with dan becuase it is more inrticate than it first looks. You really ONLY hit the ball with the stretch point and the pressure change of the legs. The balls come out like straight missiles. If you try to do your old thing AND this at the same time, it is easy to hit it fat. I'm digging more into this becuase it was really encouraging.
This makes so much sense now. I actually accidentally discovered this with my 3 iron off a tee. We have a lot of short par 4’s. I concentrated on my lower body staying seated on the edge of an imaginary bar stool and then stretch my upper body back around as far as possible and was hitting it 220. But can’t do it with my driver. Only hit that 230 - to 235. It’s been driving me nuts for 2 yrs Now with this video I think I can finally transfer that swing to my driver. It should be noted also I’m 62 yrs old.
I discovered this very method accidentally about 2 months ago. Amazing that I’m seeing others to validate it. Now I’m sure it’s not a fluke since we’re in winter here now. Thanks

"Kelvin Miyahira was the pioneer in looking into facia and how it relates to the golf swing but unfortunately he had a severe stroke which prevented him going further . He also pioneered the spine engine ideas in golf and a lot of his ideas have been used developing long drive and golf training. Dan does a very good job of explaining the slings, I would be very interested if Dan got his ideas from "Kelvin Miyahira or someone taught by him.
Makes sense so if connected through the X, firing left hip down and away is going to pull across to right shoulder and help you shallow and stay on plane automatically. I've been told the "x-factor" happens at all the joints in the swing to some degree right. This system of staying stretched and activated seems healthier than how some people do it (pulling on joints and tendons not distributing load across all the muscles in the X chain). There are exercises meant for this "X" I am going to work on them, maybe some ball throws. I have some laxity in my joints and I know I need to get stronger, but without this "activation" I think it would be still bad for my back without them activated through load so I'm excited to work on this, thanks.
Trackman doesnt show your swing path and face angle on the first drive, it means it could not read it and its gonna show a straight ball. Not sure if youre aware of that or did it intentionaly, but that "trackman is not level" warning is there for a reason. Doesnt take away from the information in this video, just a little bsing of people. Cheers
B - thanks for this; I love it! I think the insight from this is huge, and in simple terms it makes total sense to me that we should be trying to rotate the body in the reverse order from which we are trying to swing back into the ball (i.e: ground upwards). I am struck that this appears tit be the opposite of what Dr Kwon was teaching (re backswing), but Dan’s theory appears to me the opportunity to keep much best connection and shape in the backswing. In your more recent short video on the 3 essentials that you try to focus on, you appeared not to take this video into consideration. Am I wrong about that, because while I agree with everything both guys seem to say about the downswing and rotation through the ball, this video seems to contain a valuable ingredient that most others miss or fail to understand. I’d be interested in your thoughts…
EVERY SINGLE SHOT of the 1.5 hours we filmed was like that. Every shot he hit had a face to path difference of less than 1. He was usually 0 point something face with a 0 point something path.
@@BEBETTERGOLF Must be something about you Canadians. Moe Norman as I understand, is the only person who could hit a ball with zero sidespin. Incredible hitting Dan!
Please please please do more on this! I can get 97 mph clubhead speed easy on my 7 iron but can’t control it because of the turn. I’ve tried so many different swings and I think this is the missing link. Whenever I do more rotational swing I lose clubhead speed. This video alone made me subscribe!
Very interesting. I would be interested to know if he thinks this is more taxing on the back because of the separation or if he thinks it's less taxing because of the core engagement.
Reminds me of the old X Factor which died out due to high stress on the lower back, this is for the elite long knockers, the ave hack needs to focus on hands & wrists according to Paddy Harrington & Tom Watson.
I really like the feeling of activating my glutes like I am doing a heavy deadlift and feeling the spring wind up 😊 and I will pause to feel it at top of backswing and then release
This is very much the X factor from the past. Works for some, not for others. As an orthopedic surgeon there are no discrete fascial bands in the upper body that correspond to the diagrams shown in the video. ALL muscle is covered with fascia, some thicker and tougher than others but with very littel stretch.
Glad you clarified that diagram they showed. I was like I don’t think that is accurate. What they propose can lead to back injury if the hips move out from under the torso. Be very careful learning this and make sure not to leave your torso behind your hips by sliding the hips forward.
Yes well that's the first thing that came to my mind(X Factor swing rotation) not too far into the explanation of the workings of this swing. And how many people ended up with bad backs after using the X Factor method.
To me this is "rib sway" (JT Thomas and Elite Golf) and I do the rib sway in both directions. I have NEVER hit it better. Insane how straight and long!
Hi . another great video. I'm a big fan. this one is another body driven swing . similar to milo. have you seen any of marcus edblad ? another long drive champion from sweden . he's similar to mike malaska. hands first and the body responds. fancy going to sweden?
Curious to see if you pick up some speed on driver like you did w Berry or if this just works for you on partial and full wedges/irons… would be cool to look back at all you’ve experienced and pick your preferred method for distance, accuracy, pitching, chipping…
When you say crunch, is it necessary to bend the spine forward too or is it just tightening the core muscles. I believe Rory mentioned this in a video where he says he activates his core muscles.
I just flushed alot of balls in the net. core crunch feeling... I am a shorter stocky person and can hit it long. I am someone who over swings, opening trail hip too far. this kept my lower body stable. Felt really good. great video
this sounds an alot like the old X factor from years ago, where the upper body rotation resists against the lower body rotation, which "=" BAD back in the long term. Can you say with certain that it's not the same movement?
I love that idea of creating separation in the backswing, not the downswing. Sooo much instruction tells people to squat or lead with the hips in the downswing and it screws people up.
hey B! Just wanted to chime in here and say that my last 3 range sessions (before watching this) I've sort of just discovered this feeling on my own. however, I'm still very slide and dump flip and scoop. But, for whatever reason-- I'm getting great contact and seeing the ball fly relatively lower than what I usually hit! I really need an anti slide drill along with this feeling.
I remember what dear Bob Toski said and Seymour Dunn in Bobs Book. “I just don’t understand what these people (big-muscle advocates) are talking about,” Toski says. “The body can’t make a swing, because the body isn’t touching the club. You can’t get any speed from your shoulders. “All this talk about big muscles - give me a break. You’re a dead duck if you start thinking about big muscles and forget about the hands.” "Some players might as well stick their hands in their pockets," said the great golf instructor Seymour Dunn, "for all the use they make of them." Think back to the swing in the park [Toski was talking about a child's playground swing in an earlier chapter]. Let's say it's not a swing now, but a tennis ball hanging from a rope attached to the swing crossbar. You find it at rest and you want to start it swinging. How do you begin? Do you butt it with your body or nudge it with your shoulder? Do you push the rope with your arm? Or do you set it gently swinging with an easy push of your hand so that the ball climbs and falls back before you send it on its way again? And if you use your hand, do you clench it tightly or hold it just firmly enough to start it on the natural path limited by the length of the rope? Do you stiffen your wrist or let it flex? Which will keep the ball moving without bowing or jerking the rope? In a similar way, do you "flick" your wrist slightly at the bottom of the club's arc to add speed and send it forward faster? Or do you twist your body and lunge forward to quicken the club's pace? The freedom and motion that we spoke of in Chapter 1 emanate from the hands. The hands start the clubhead moving, keep it on its natural path and sustain its centrifugal motion. It would take very little movement on your part to get that tennis ball moving at its maximum speed, and most of the movement would come from your hands. And so with your golf swing. The hands, Dunn said, are the leaders of the swing. And that surprises most golfers. You see them on the practice range struggling to lift the club with their arms or pull it with their shoulders or help it along with their legs and trunk. They twist and turn and slap and hit, clutching the club in a grip so tight their hands lose all of their natural power. "Most poor golfers," Ernest Jones said, "merely use their hands to hold the club. They don't understand that it is through the hands and fingers alone that they can influence the behavior of the club."
I couldn’t disagree with you more. To me the hands are merely a loose hinge. Of course the hands move during the swing but they do so as an affect of the arms and body turning. Look at how a medieval trebuchet works. It’s an upside down golf swing and has a perfect release every time due to the effects of physics. Look at the speed of a golf swing, if you think that you can say to the wrists hold it , hold it, NOW, you’re severely mistaken.
That’s weird because it sounded good to me but a couple people are complaining about it. We both have our own DJI Mike, and they were working really well. I’ll check it for our next video.
ok. Fair on these tips. But I'd like to see one of these guys teach a sub 6footer and see what happens to a loss of speed due to arc and musculature. If it was simply moves why is it only Jason Zuback the only short guy to win and he had to be built like a small gorilla.
Commenting 13 seconds into this clip. Let's get your 63 year old dad in there and see if he can swing like that. Or better yet, get 5 random golfers from the local muni. Pfft, forget it. Let's see what you got...
Be careful with this method, it has created a ton of back issue on tour. Creating the separation in transition is hard on the lumbar spin, Patrick Cantlay was out nearly three years with stress fractures due to using this swing philosophy.

@@JJHWAS91 Crunching the core is a basic move for creating speed. Rory really emphasizes this as well as having a firm grip.

Remember “tennis” anyone?
Not the worlds longest drive, 515 on men's tour is (Mike Austin at age 64!!!). So what if you are left handed? You are still human and not a female so who cares? This guy can't hit it as far as a 64 year old. Oh, and those are muscles you are using......
WHen I was out in the Desert filming with tour pro Berry Henson, Berry told me that wolrds longest lefty DAN (s)mackintosh had the absolute secret to hitting solid full and partial wedge shots.

Now with this video I think I can finally transfer that swing to my driver. It should be noted also I’m 62 yrs old.
Really like the idea of crunching the core before going into our backswing.
I discovered this very method accidentally about 2 months ago. Amazing that I’m seeing others to validate it. Now I’m sure it’s not a fluke since we’re in winter here now.
Thanks
Great minds think alike Nelson!
Always wondered if the core should be flexed/engaged before swinging..... Great vid!
Love your channel brah !!!

I used to advise my junior students to practice their slap shots from both sides.

what's crazy is his competition LD swing looks like a pretty playable golf swing on the course.

This was kind of new "must test"-stuff. Struggling to get to the forward side in the downswing. This might do it.
How long do you keep "the crunch" on the through swing? I would assume you try to keep all the way to the end?

“Separation?” What is being “stretched and separated?” Are we talking about creating an “X” between the pelvis and shoulders?” Sounds like it.
Sounds good guys but I don’t think seniors like me (73) can keep their legs fixed and turn that far otherwise I would end up in traction.
