Thanks for watching!
I've had the best success with this method. Besides the days where everything is just off, it's usually my alignment and not ball striking that gets me. Golf is deceptively simple and endlessly complicated-Arnold Palmer
SO helpful on counter-intuitive alignment - and brillaint when it shows the likely negative impact on your overall swing. Many thanks!
Great video, I was taught this method many years ago with the thought that the most important part of the start of a golf swing is alignment, alignment and alignment.
Great thought. I had this issue this week and my body was eventually blocking a good solid swing which led to all kinds of issues. Shorter distance, pulls and hitting before the ball. Therefore leading to even worse so called corrections.
I was teaching this for years. Most common error I saw In golf was aiming closed. Meaning most come over the top to pull it back on target. I used to say to students. Why do you want a perfect golf swing if you can’t aim it in the right direction. All you’ll hit are perfectly struck shots 30yds right…
This video was EXTREMELY helpful bc they explained how n why shots go where they do, especially the impeding rotation part. Thank you!!!!
I'm surprised this got posted. Great work. Every single lesson should begin with how to properly align and what it looks like, and how to improperly align and what that looks like. And give details on why alignment often dictates what happens regardless of your intent. Watch this video no less than 10 times a day
I am definitely going to use these tips. I struggle with alignment from time to time.
good work, it works. I see a lot of people try this and fail. not sure why they fail tho.
One of the best fundamentals that you must get right every time. I’ve played with so many golfers who all aimed down the right and even if they hit it straight they would still be in right rough. Any kind of fade or slice is even worse and inevitably they end up blaming and tinkering with their swing.
Mike malayska spoke about this a little bit with putting. It would be better to make your line, set your eyes to the target line first, then aim clubface. This will put your mind at ease and improve your odds of making a good swing.
Yeah . Good line up helps your confidence too
Malaska already did this.
If i dont get behind my putts and line up my clubface first I cant putt at all lol im always left by a lot
I starting doing this about 3 weeks ago and I probably have dropped 5 strokes. My miss was constantly right.
I am chronically aimed 40yds right of my target. It is a very difficult thing to fix.......GREAT video! Thanks
Excellent video! I made a similar video last year. The one thing Milo missed when talking about not being able to get the left side out of the way, he forgot about how people jump and move the left foot back in order to do just that. It's the classic amateur spin out and stand up move. Although, I think another reason people tend to aim right is they want to artificially move their right hip out of the way so they can early extend and still hit the ball.
Thanks. Good point
Milo Lines is an excellent instructor.
Milo and Ed going back and forth is a goldmine
This is the key I’ve been looking for.
Aiming right (closed) was always a problem for me. Like he said I’d come over and pull it towards the target.
Never was good at geometry but when I knew this was happening I used a spot aged to line the club to and then would try to make the leading edge line of the club face be perpendicular to my shoulders. I just didn’t do it enough LOL!
Line up your shot from behind the ball, pick intermediate blade of grass or debris to remember your line and then aim club face along that line then square up your stance to club face.
Yep pretty much the way I do it. Its much easier
True, the challenge comes in when we take that last look at the target and feel as though we’re set up open
Lining up the club head to any target can also be a problem even on a 3 ft putt. I used to aim more than 10degrees left, thinking the blade was square. Takes a while to correct.
Wow. I started doing this around the middle of the season and played great, aiming at an old divot or tee on the ground then laying the club down, walking up to it get situated and hit. Played the best I have. Next year will be even better.
I grab an old broken tee on each tee box and put it in front of my ball on my target line about 18inches out. Then line up club and line up to that. Works great
@@joelm9080 2 stroke penalty 😂
@@81mccabe58 ok if you want to get technical on me. I will place my tee in line behind a tee left on the teebox by someone else. No rule against that
Great way to aim the club and body.
Thx Paul
Chronic problem of mine. And my brain refuses to believe either my alignment stick or my feet. It “corrects” my body/club during my swing - and totally mangles the shot. So frustrating!
Great golf course- right down the road from me. Do you come down to SD often?
depends on if you're right eye or left eye dominant.
I have always squared my club to the target and really never thought about my body so much. Just made sense to me because the ball has to go to the target and not my body. I simply picture a painted line from the club head squared at impact to the target area.
Good one 👏👏👏👏👏
For same eye dominant people, like myself, it will always look bendy no matter how I tilt my head to look. The head tilt only works for cross eye dominant people.
Really never understood the practice of clipping a towel to your belt. Have you got no club bag ?
I've always had problems aiming parallel ...I either like to aim left and cut the ball in, or aim right and draw the ball in... Ben Hogan said "You only hit a straight ball by accident. The ball is going to move right or left every time you hit it, so you had better make it go one way or the other."
The dude with the clipped towel though 😂 🤣
I think ball positioning has a lot to do with alignment issues also.
Nice too , Ben hogan alway aimed the club to the target an then set his feet
Lol this was me today. Striping them all out of the middle, but it going straight as a bullet 20 yards left of where i was 'aiming'.
I never aim at the target…. I play my slice like a champ!!
After decades of golf, I still do this. It’s an incredibly difficult habit to break.
That's why I play open stance golf and aim with the clube face. Lower body is not in the way ever.
2:20
Find a target line to your target
Find a short to intermediate target on that line
Aim club face to that short target
Square yourself around the club face
Notice the line drawn at the feet at 3:05. In 2D, the line looks like it goes 30 yds left of target. I've heard smart people say they have to aim their feet way left to account for this effect, when in reality, if the feet are lined up parallel to the target line, they are only 3 feet off the pin, exactly where they should be.
The path is not the determining factor of where the ball starts, it's the face! Milo has that incorrect. Lot's of incorrect assumptions in this video about stance line, aiming point etc. There's the face and there's the path and then there's the golfer who is factor x, lot's of variables to deal with here. Not so simple as Milo demonstrates.
Face-to-Path
According to Trackman, the golf ball will start where the face is aimed (club face angle), and will curve according to the divergence angle between the club face angle and club path angle. If you want to get technical, approximately 85% of the ball’s initial flight direction is determined by the club face angle, and the other 15% by the club path angle.
@@dirt_nWater aka Frozen Divots how ya doing you chump! Still fighting Gravity...lol!
I understand that fact. I have a trackman and I am well versed in it. Path and face generally have a pretty strong correlation drawers aim the face slightly right and swing a bit more right
As the old saying goes..."The face sends it and the path bends it"
Keep in mind...."The club face sends it and the path bends it".
Best way i know to aim my club to my target is not to aim it at all. Instead I will aim the dorsal back of my neutral grip lead hand to my target as I am bending my body and then adjust my stance neutral just before I swing my club. Cheers
I think if the biggest problem was that players aimed too far to one side or the other, they'd figure that out on their own with a few shots.
I am sorry to say that I won't be using any of the instruction in this video. I recommend having a look at Zen Golf Mechanics to see another way to align the body for the shot required, a draw or fade. I had a lesson this last week and was told my alignment was spot on. Cheers ⛳🇦🇺
So, to sum up: the reason you hit it right is because you aim right, which means you swing left, which means it goes right 😂
You have a valid 👉 point
Or be my dad who always aimed at target but makes this incredible rotation where he clears his hips and can literally hit it square.
I've tried to get him to fix it by using stuff like this but when we do, trying to undo 40 years of muscle memory makes him worse.
But man, watching it is both infuriating and incredible.
lol! Good for him!
@@BEBETTERGOLF it's so awkward to watch when you notice it. You cannot unsee it.
At 63yrs old, he has 245-250yd carry and can shoot in the 80s. I figure at this point, why change him up. He should have another 10 years or so of golf like that if he stays healthy and after that he'll lose the speed.
Let sleeping dogs lie, they say 🤣
Patrick Reed does this
Been trying it for 40 years, doesn't work. For me. And, I often line up too much left. I can't square myself to the club, don't know how. Maybe you could tell us how.
Think of your feet and ball as a triangle.Make a perfect one to start,then adjust your feet and the club face will follow.Swing path is key.👍
@@timothyphillips4801 I'll give it a shot. I have stretches where it's ok, I keep my routine the same. Then after a while, I feel like it's off. Check it and I am. Was ok this weekend
"If i want to aim a rifle like this"
*confused in european*
Easier for me to aim the club face then the shoulders .
What's up with the hanging cloth tho hahaga
Most people don't aim with their dominant eye . And this topic is never discussed by teaching pros
Who walks up in their approach with their hands in their pockets?
The kid is too young to have a towel clipped to his belt.
Kind of a long video just to tell people about an intermittent target.
👍🤪🇺🇲
I think this is false logic. he is aiming people at two contradictory distances. its like saying since the ball is 1" in front off the clubhead if you draw a line from your eye through the ball its almost 90 degrees off.
