Ulnar deviation is the reason most people don't play golf well. It's the action of pointing the shaft toward the ball in an effort to "make the clubhead hit the ball." This action is completely unnecessary. When we swing a baseball bat we swing it butt-end first and allow the meat of the bat to swing out and strike the ball - we don't manually point the bat toward the ball. The same is true in golf. If you imagine swinging the butt-end backward at an imaginary ball (The Holy Grail Method) the weight of the clubhead will cause the club to swing out and strike the ball. There is no need to assist the club in doing its job. You can't stop it if you tried, really. As a matter of fact maybe you should try to see that you don't need to help it. Try to swing the club upside down, butt-end first through the entire swing and see what happens. The club rockets out and around much faster than you could ever do manually. As a matter of fact your hands can't keep up which is why we get wear on the gloves.
Golf should not be a struggle. Golf should not be hard. Golf is easy if you know the secret.
Start playing golf well. Gain confidence and have more fun playing golf.
Dustin Johnson, Cameron Champ, Rory McIlroy, Joaquín Niemann and Tommy Fleetwood all hit the ball with this method.

100% correct. Absolutely the best explanation I have ever seen.
The single most useful explanation of how to swing a golf club. Thanks very much!
This is like "light bulb" stuff here for me. I've always gotten "stuck" trying to "square up" the club thru impact. I have a 30 year old chicken swing swing and have never figured out how to beat it. I think this is it! Can't wait to hit some balls with these concepts! Thanks!
I know your saying the right things as Bradley Hughes says the same but just in a different way. Keep the videos going.
Thanks for sharing this. I just discovered this on my own at the driving range today that I have better extensions for my arm by letting my wrist ulnar deviate at setup. It’s major difference between my long game and short game
OMG, this is it, no one ever reveal this secret, many thanks to you, it works for me !!! i gain at least 20 yards
Thanks for another very insightful video. These help me.
Thank you for this amazing video! I've been golfing for over 40 years and hit my first 300 yard drive ever after watching this video! I have watched hundreds of golf videos (even dating back to VHS tapes) and have never seen the golf swing simplified like this! Thanks again!
I'm happy to hear that I've done another person good! How 'bout a tip? paypal.me/OverhandGolf
People pay hundreds for a new driver or irons and hundreds more on DVDs and lessons that do them little or no good. I have truly simplified the swing to the point of almost near ridiculousness and it's transforming people's golf games and only a few nice people have given me a donation.
I don't mean to guilt you into anything. You do what feel is right. I don't want to be a jerk, but my wife keeps saying to me, "Why are you just giving it away for free? You're wasting your time!"
I'd like to prove here wrong.
Play well!

How far did you hit the ball on average before this?
@@maralvor I'm 6' 2" 230 so I've always been able to get it out there between 270 and 280 but that was using my old fade, this new technique generates more clubhead speed with less muscular effort and is a more penetrating left to right ball flight...works with my irons too...I use to play a fade and now my ball flight is almost dead straight or turns a little left at apex.
Brilliant. I want to do this! I am a believer.
Great vid! Keep posting.
Trying this I am getting some really nice speed through the golf ball but the face just does not close (hitting slices). I got home and did a slow mo video and could see the club open when parallel to the ground but still wide open where impact would be.
I have also watched a lot of pro slo motion videos and most professional golfers have their face pointing slightly to the ground at club parallel.
Not sure what I would be doing wrong?
Thank You for the video, I actually took and old driver and taped a paper arrow to the club face to practice my swings, it does help you stay on plane. Immediate feedback just like your video.
I used cardboard for the arrow and quakehold to stick it to the face.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf Thank You
Tried this and hit my irons really well. Not as well as I can hit them, but way more consistent. I hit my driver solid this way too, but every one is a pull to the left. Irons go perfectly straight.
That may be a product of your grip or a shaft that doesn't match your swing speed. If your driver shaft doesn't match your swing speed you'll have a hard time hitting the ball straight. Some shafts are just garbage. I had one once that sent the ball 150 straight down the middle then the ball made a sharp right turn. It happened every time. I reshafted the club and it worked great and I still have it.
I think you are on to something...I deliberately try to do the "bad move" (arrow on top of the club head, 1st one), and look exactly like you do when you demonstrate the "bad move" (not quite that bad, I have played as low as 5.0ish)...after a range session I'll get back
Will be happy tp pay haven’t tried ( bad knee) yet but it just makes sense ~~just trying to be ready when the time is right.
Your knees shouldn't need to be in great shape to swing properly. I don't know what your knee problems are but it/they shouldn't hinder you too much. As long as you're swinging correctly you shouldn't need to "nuke" it. I played with a friend with a hurt rib the other day and he ended up hitting straighter and farther than normal with a smaller and easier swing.
This is very similar to a lesson I just had where the pro said to feel like I I'm chopping an axe away from the target for a downswing thought. Driving way further and way shallower divots with irons. One thing to add for me is to not grip too hard so the toe catches up naturally without conscious forearm rotation
Absolutely! That's a good teacher. It sounds like he knows how to get you hitting the ball well instead of promoting the ridiculous American golf instruction.
Overhand Golf So, do you feel as if you are delivering the hosel down the plane and the hands naturally square the face? Thank you
@@jonathanbalanetsky7914 Well, that sounds scary but basically, yes. We're only delivering the bottom of the shaft toward the target line. Once we pass parallel or the holy grail position the club begins to rotate closed naturally. We actually do swing the shaft at the ball, or I should say we have learned to but there's a phenomena called shaft droop that causes the ball to be struck in the center of the clubface rather than the hosel. If you've ever watched someone try to hit a ball tossed to them like a baseball they almost always strike the ball with the shaft and the head breaks off. This is no accident. Although, their intent was to strike the ball out of the air with the clubface their instinct was to hit it with the shaft and they usually do.
Overhand Golf Thank you. I will keep working on that feel. I am an ex baseball player and always struggled with contact like a baseball. Hands way to in front of lead leg. The 90 degree to aim line has helped get release more around the trail leg. Used your technique to shoot my first subpar round ever, so owe you a huge thanks!!!
@@jonathanbalanetsky7914 Fantastic! Baseball players, real one's not just the kids who played in high school can be really good golfers. I've played with several ex-pro baseball players that we're really good. Once you figure out how to make the baseball swing hit a golf ball, it's easy. I wouldn't be offended by a tip ... paypal.me/OverhandGolf (I'm out of work for most of the year due to covid.)
I have to try this. Quite possibly the smartest thing I’ve ever seen...
It's actually just common sense but in golf there is little of it.
Overhand Golf we should look into a collaboration..
Hi, at the 3.05 mark in this video is exactly how i feel i swing.
I swing from the inside literally trying to hit the ball with the hosel/heel of the club with my right hand slightly bent back.
with irons i feel like i`m smashing the ball into the ground so my forearms rotate with the feeling of closing the club face.
Love your videos, they are a lot of help.
ps, no issues with the video quality it`s fine.
Are using the Holy Grail move or you just do this naturally?
@@HolyGrailOfGolf Hi, I do use the Holy Grail move however it first morphed into the feeling of throwing the club head into the ground at my trail foot.
Now it feels like I do much the same but with the feeling of trying to hit the ball with the heel.
Obviously that would produce a complete shank, so I have the feeling of closing the club face.
It's just a feeling as it all happens naturally as you say it feels like you swing level over the ball.
For me I have to feel like I'm coming from way inside as I have an awful tendency to swing over the top.
I also like to add i have probably got this all wrong.
This being the main reason i am crap at golf.
One swing i can hit 4 hybrid 230 yards the next barely 150.
@@paulwoolnough3770 Interesting that you should mention it, but we actually do swing the heel of the club straight at the ball. When we do the weight of the toe causes the shaft to bow moving the heel out of the way and replacing it with the center of the face. It's called shaft droop. If the shaft didn't droop every shot would be.a shank. I'm in the process of making a video about it. It's why the shaft has to match your swing speed. Too stiff and you'll hit off the heel to soft and you'll hit off the toe. If you look really closely at any good player at impact an draw a straight line from the butt end of the club to the ball you'll see the line is on the shaft until about half way then the shaft curves downward and off that line, but the grip of the club is pointing straight at the ball.
@@paulwoolnough3770 You just need practice to build confidence. After a while you'll forget you ever hit a bad shot. I find that beer helps. You have to play like you don't care. If you care too much you'll tense up and no one plays well tense. 25 years ago I had the world's biggest slice. I could literally hit a ball that turned 180º in the air and land in the opposite direction than I was aimed. Only I remember that and now I can barely hit a fade. I regularly hit par 5s in two from ~200 to 275 out.
Hey, sir! I'm a new subscriber. I find your videos super interesting. I tried your method at the range and it works!!
But occasionally, i was hitting this mega push to the right. What was I doing wrong??
You're either manually closing the clubface too early in the downswing, or you're not swinging downward enough. Instead of fearing the ball going right, try to swing with the clubface open as if you want the ball to go right. It takes some convincing of yourself to swing downward and outward enough. Don't try to make it work, try to make it not work. Try to prove me wrong. That's how you actually get the feeling for it. Any help you try to give it will make it fail. It's so simple you won't believe it.
Thank you so much for your videos. I've watched every one since you posted the holy grail and many of the ones prior as well. Truly awesome stuff, so I hope you'll continue--your voice and videos are refreshing (and I've watched a LOT of golf videos since I started playing in my 20s more than 20 years ago.
I believe that the biggest challenge is in getting one's brain to "get" it. I believe I intellectually "understand" the golf swing. I comprehend (as laity) what I am trying to do with respect to angles, it's simply that the part of my brain that understands how to move doesn't trust it. And then all it takes is one bad slice to everything up in my head.
That's why I find your videos to be wonderful. In particular, I would love it if you would go into more detail around the "automatic" closing of the club head. I have a suspicion that my brain sees a wide open (to me) clubface in the downswing at the parallel to ground position and subconsciously tenses up. Any thoughts on how to overcome/retrain that "feature"?
I like this video a lot because it gives me something very concrete to focus on. I would love to hear more about the shaft droop for certain.
I've been saying this for years, YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOURSELF WRONG. Everyone is so scared to hit the ball right that they never bother to see what would happen if they actually tried it. If you try to swing with the clubface wide open, you can't do it. The physics of the club won't let it. What causes an open face is prematurely manually closing it, then with power still applied to the handle the clubface re-opens through impact and the ball goes right.
So when you prove yourself wrong you do it over and over until you no longer believe that it won't work. Reprograming your brain.
"This shouldn't work. This ball should go straight right."
"Right down the target line. Long and straight."
"That was a freak of nature. This one will go dead right."
"Nope. Right down the target line. Long and straight"
"This shouldn't work." ...
50 balls later ...
Oh yeah, all you gotta do is swing the club "that way" and the ball goes "that way." After you've done it enough, it makes perfect sense and you're reprogramed.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf This comment clarified things. Big time. 👍
@@HolyGrailOfGolf I think you have nailed it in saying "If you try to swing with the clubface wide open, you can't do it. The physics of the club won't let it. What causes an open face is prematurely manually closing it, then with power still applied to the handle the clubface re-opens through impact and the ball goes right."
You are absolutely correct.GENIUS
Is this concept grip related? Usually golf feels are. (needing to be more strong/weak)
Yes and no. When you set up at address you should have a neutral grip for you. Not everyone is the same. You have to figure out how your arms hang naturally. That way, when you swing properly the club will move through the ball while squaring up. The club has to be open prior to impact in order to square up through the ball.
I really like this tip! I just wish you spent more time expounding on it. Spot on! irons please!
Hopefully you've already watched the Holy Grail playlist. It will explain things a lot more.
Overhand Golf p
I like the concept. One comment and I hate to be that guy, but, when you show the correct arrow position, you show it for about four seconds. You spend much longer on bad positions. Maybe spend longer on the correct, it would really be great. Also, any links to more stuff or whatever would be great. Thanks!
Argh! You're totally right. I'm usually "that guy." I hate when a video constantly show what NOT to do. I plan on remaking this video and I'll pay attention to that. I made this for a friend, really quickly, because I finally figured out why he couldn't properly perform the Holy Grail move. This might be the most significant video I've ever made though.
Great example of giving and receiving feedback gents!
I like this video - def showed me that I’ve been focused on the wrong part of the club. When I changed my focus I found I was swinging too hard (trying to maximize distance) so now I’m trying to slow it down a bit and make it smooth... I do find that my miss is a hook/pull hook now; thoughts as to why that would be happening?
@@SUPaddict You did say miss, correct? So this happens when something goes wrong. I can't really tell you what went wrong but I can tell you that the ball going left is the miss of good golfers. Amateurs tend to miss right and good golfers tend to miss left. It's still golf and errant shots are part of the game. Even pros it errant shots and they practice every day.
very smart !!
I want to see some video's of you teaching the OHG to students or a random range rat, that have never seen your idea's before and the light bulb goes off in their head. It could be like a three part series where we can see their progress and hear how they describe their change in perception.
I've been very tempted but I refrain from giving unsolicited advice. I will sometimes when I'm playing with someone who's struggling but I think if I tried it at the range I'd get a 9 iron to the jaw.
I saw a guy at the range recently who'd hit a ball and then scream "F###!" and pound his club into the mat over and over.
Maybe you can get a volunteer
Can you make a video to fix a shank?
You should do a vid showing the holy grail from down the line so we can see how perpendicular you are swinging. Would be helpful. Thanks
ua-cam.com/video/gchaKsh4emM/v-deo.html
The face of your club is wide open on the downswing. Is that the correct way to come down to the ball with all the clubs (except for the putter of course)? The only tine that would be bad if you come over the top?
Coming over the top is a product or effect of ulnar deviation or the desperate act of trying to make sure the clubface is square at impact. To you, because you've even brought up this question, it will feel like the clubface is wide open. Really, it's only going to be about 30º open, but it's a moot point in that by the time you get to the ball it will be square unless you've forced some sort of compensation that will interrupt this process. I'll say it again, you have to prove yourself wrong. Go try this and try to hit the ball with the clubface wide open as you imagine it would be and you'll find that with no active control it closes on it's own. It's designed to do that. It's why children who know nothing about golf or physics can hit a ball perfectly. If you're gripping the club properly all you should have to do is swing the club, the anatomical limits of your body and the engineering of the club does the rest.
There is no need to come over the top once you truly understand how the club works.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf thanks again!!! I'll go and try this out at the range when I get a chance
@@CharlesRDoral Remember you're trying to essentially prove yourself wrong. Do it, expecting it not to work and once you do it enough you'll realize it does work. Don't be afraid to fail miserably.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf Sounds like a plan!!! I'll try my best to fail so that I can come to that conclusion and realization...Thanks!
That Imo is a very Phil Michelson swing and relies on the club shaft straightening at the ball to allow the face to rotate, the danger is pulling too hard with the toe up can cause the shaft to flex in the opposite direction of impact laws meaning it has to somehow rebound to shaft droop at impact making it hard to control the closing of the face so with this method swinging and feeling centrifugal force is imperative. The Dustin Johnson etc method is bow the left wrist early so the face DOES look at the ball early so powering hard will cause the shaft to only ever correctly bend backwards and downwards(droop) throughout the downswing which is very stable yet requires great athleticism as it's a core driven hit through rather than a swing to like Phil's.
I gotta disagree with you on that one. Take a look at this video, ua-cam.com/video/FiDIsE6sZrQ/v-deo.html
Although, we think the shaft would be bending backward at impact it's actually the other way around. The clubhead is moving faster than our hands can keep up so the shaft at impact is actually bent forward ... this also allows the clubhead to stay in contact longer with the ball and impart more energy to it as the shaft recoils from impact with the mass of the golf ball.
If the shaft were to be bent backward at impact that would mean our hands would be moving faster than the clubhead and still imparting force on the handle - which is exactly what most amateurs do causing them a massive loss of distance.
Finally, there is no way to reach the ball without allowing the shaft out. What I've described here is how good golfers use the club. That's not to say some elite athletes like DJ have learned to do more advanced or unique moves that also work. I'd say 98% of the human population cannot perform a golf swing like DJ or John Rahm. You can chase that, as I did, for years or you can have fun. Personally, I'm liking the fun part a lot more.
What I find interesting is that we watch most professional athletes on tv and never imagine we can do the same but for some reason, people think they should be as good as a pro.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf I probably should have clarified i was talking about prior impact, yes the shaft is not still bending backwards at impact but would you agree that for it to be bending forwards at impact it must have been bending backwards in relation to the face just prior? Therefore it's important that prior forces on the shaft cause this backward bend rather than too much upward bend which is likewise impossible to maintain at impact and the rebounding of this unwanted flex ( due to droop law) can destabilize the club face. Its as simple as ensuring force is only applied to the shaft when the left arm is actively ( yet not forced) closing the face at about the 10:00 position rather than too early when the toe is facing up, DJ"s difference is he severely bows the wrist at the top (12:00) so he can pull as hard as he wants from there without bending the shaft upwards this creates extra backward bend which when released on impact creates power and control.
@@dazalenko4250 That's a lot of info. Yes, in the video I made with Brandon Stone, we see the shaft bent backward when he first applies power. What I was showing in that video is that at the Holy Grail position is when the shaft is neutral and then begins to bend forward. Which means that's the point at which it begins to move faster than our hands can move. Shaft droop is an interesting phenomena that most people have no idea about and I'm not sure if they should.
I can't agree with the "forces the club closed," statement. I think it's actually the club that's causing the wrist to rotate. I made a club with the head free spinning on the shaft to prove that the rotation of the shaft wasn't what was controlling the clubface. Sure, the shaft can and does control the clubface but better if the clubface is in control. If that makes sense.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf fair enough but I did say 'not' forced closed. I'd like to suggest just for the fun of it as an experiment try hitting some balls with the feeling of downswing handle forces bending the shaft upwards (leading with the heel) then hit some shots with the feeling of downswing handle forces bending the shaft backwards in relation to a square face and see what you think , imo you will find the force on the second swing needs to be applied later in the downswing when you sense the face is square in the slot but the shaft should feel kind of stiffer and on rails near impact . But swinging from the top and leading with the heel is still a great swing style and requires soft wrist mechanics to allow the face to shut on release. A great way to swing if you are older or have good feel for a swing.
Also I believe shaft droop is important information for golfers as shanks can inexplicably occur from a sound swing especially with stiff shafts that's just slightly tentative at impact, this slightest deceleration causes the shaft strength to 'win' against the droop (as droop needs momentum to be maintained) therefore snaps the shaft straight presenting the heel to the ball, droop also explains why swinging too aggressively for your shaft strength can cause unexplained deep divots or high right push drives as too much droop is just like hitting off a side hill lie, it presents the loft on an angle causing the apex to be to the right mimiking a push.
@@dazalenko4250 I think you're probably the only other person I've spoken to that knows anything about shaft droop.
yer a GD genius!
Why is it when I video the swing my right wrist is still looking kind of flippy?
I'm working on a video about that now.
Overhand Golf alright cool. Don’t get me wrong I’m smashing the ball but post impact the right wrist is flippy looking and i can’t correct it. Let me know if you do video analysis, for a fee of course
@@markyrizzo2283 Send the video to OverhandGolf@usa.com
can do your head in thinking about all that stuff . . let alone trying to swing the club.
Don't tour pros have the face pointing at the ball to target line at that 9 oclock position though? Including DJ. I'm confused. Don't they all bow the wrist at that point to have the face squaring early? I also thought that's what you meant by hitting the ball to the target line behind the ball. But you are saying hit it there with the hosel side of the shaft. Isn't that wide open? That would make it more than 90 to the ground. Why don't we see this in slow mo of pros on tour? I'm not saying you are wrong, I just find it confusing.
You're right and what you're describing makes sense. I'm describing what it is we need to think we're doing, not what will actually happen. What you're describing will actually happen without you thinking about it. Hogan described a lot of things in his book that he didn't actually do but he thought he did or at least he felt like he did. I think he understood that feel is not real and we simply need to think we're doing something that forces us to do the proper things. If you're doing the HG swing properly you'd swear you're swinging backward away from the target but the ball flies toward the target. Basically, we're tricking ourselves into making the proper moves. If we actively try to make the proper moves we'll either over do it, or do it too late.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf Ah, okay. I understand what you mean better now. Thanks.
I wanna see irons swing with this Golf Swing Theory! It seems tomo work for Driver only.
@mariorojas2379 All golf clubs work under the same principle. I have plenty of wedge and iron videos on the website. Once the website is up and running I'll post some stuff here on UA-cam. I mostly demonstrate with a driver or fairway wood because they're easiest to demonstrate with.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf thanks for your answer. I have to admit that I was applying some of your Holy thing in my swing lately before I re- encountered your channel . I was into John Rahm draw -Driver swing, releasing the club much like you say, and I’ve found out that that’s what you teach . Now, as a baseball swing like golfer, I’m applying your technique with success, mostly thanks to the elbow and forearm rotation, but when I hit irons it’s different and kind of harder , I’ll take a look at your website now. Thanks !
@@TonyCallaway Yes, with irons things are a bit more subtle but it all works the same once you get it. I'm glad to hear things are working. The website should launch tomorrow! Beta testing is done.
Not sure what all the comments are about??? The light is fine...can see everything clearly...the sound was a little low, but I have a volume button...it is really straightforward to understand...very simple explanation...the hat is absolutely different gravy, top drawer and the squeaky shoes even add a certain something. I am still not getting the desired results from this move, but I am pretty sure that is because I am not doing it quite right. But I will persevere and see if it clicks one day. The theory seems to be sound as a pound.
It was 103º when I shot this video. I'da caught fire without the hat. For the full understanding watch the whole series. ua-cam.com/play/PLXKsjMNjFTKhcW5fFt-CaIbGcmdWmz06k.html
@@HolyGrailOfGolf Love the hat. Would happily wear one myself.
@@jeremyfox5381 I had also just finished my yard work.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf Yard work in 103...you are more disciplined than I am!
@@jeremyfox5381 Earlier, before it got that hot.
Hmmmm, gotta do some drilling on my old bat. Bats are easier than clubs. They've no face! A guy on our softball team had a triangle bat. I guess the theory was you hit it on the flat and get better contact. Sometimes he'd hit it on the angled end. 😵
I wanted to make this thing for a long time but I couldn't figure exactly how. Today, I just figured I'd go for it and see how it went and it went better than I thought. One problem was having was how to get the big end of the shaft through the hole and keep the small end from wobbling around but I found a stupid club I bought years ago called the "Purespin" which has a non-tapered shaft, so I jammed that in there and it worked great. Luckily this bat had a plastic concave cap at the end so the whole job was about 5 minutes. Maybe I'll make a video about how to make it.
Hope so
Actually many great golfer dorsiflex their trail hand as they are able to stay connected with their swing rotating their body back and forth as if in a barrel. With their dorsiflexion of their trail hand; they also produce a better shaft lean just prior to hitting their ball flush.
I suppose your concept is good for transitioning from playing baseball to golf. So I am not knocking it even though a shaft lean is not possible with a baseball swinging of a golf club. Cheers
Would you rather stripe one long and straight down the middle of the fairway or would you rather have forward shaft lean at impact. I'm pretty sure it's the score that matters not style.
Overhand Golf very different styles in swinging the club for sure. Just was pointing out the differences.
How to create a decent shaft lean at impact to the ball is being focused a lot on You Tube recently. Also creating a divot and getting more into the dirt post impact Is what I see many good players are doing on the tour.
Never suggest what you teach is wrong in fact it is quite good and I also like your visual effects you presented over the years. I like to explore and try different theories in a golf swing. That’s all. Cheers
@@thomasfraser9072 what does your left elbow do at the start?
@@thomasfraser9072 Oh, I'm taking a divot. I don't think about it, but it happens. The reason I was a bit snide in my previous comment is that I spent a few years chasing shaft lean and lag tension. My game went to shit because I was thinking about the wrong things and my index went up to ~5. Now, using the Holy Grail of Golf method my index is 0.3 and still coming down. I hadn't shot under the whole time I was chasing lag. It was the stupidest thing I ever did, so I think it's a horrible concept to chase. We should be concerned with striking the ball well and having fun, not trying to achieve John Rahm or Dustin Johnson's impact position. No one's ever going to say, "Great lag impact position! Just like John Rahm. Too bad the ball went into the lumberyard."
15cu honda it does whatever it does. Never once thought of my left elbow other then both my elbows pointing towards my hips at the beginning of my swing just as Hogan has pictured in hid 5 lessons. Cheers
Did I see on one of your youtube vids that you have a single that vid that brings it all your suggestions in order.
I li
Yes. it's the main Holy Grail of golf video.
what is the link to that one please? Thanks
I've posted positive comments on your other videos and this one requires the same. For those of you who are skeptical of what he's saying, just watch this video of Hogan: ua-cam.com/video/wQqqF1UHi14/v-deo.html From the 21 second mark to about the 38 second mark when Hogan is showing how to bring the club down, it sure does look like he's swinging the "bottom" of the club in the direction of the target line. And just as importantly, his clubface looks WIDE open as he moves into position P6. Then, as Overhand Golf states, the clubhead square up perfectly at impact! Well done and thanks for a great lesson!
Thought about hitting with heel and played lights out on a tough course until the hozel rockets reared their head. If I don't S&@nk it, the ball is pureed. But they'll mess you up.
Hosel rockets?! That's no fun. I imagine you started questioning how great you were playing and then unconsciously tried to over-control it to make sure it continued but instead got in the way. We as humans tend to do that. We just think, "this is too easy. It can't last," and we start to question it and we screw it all up.
Any chance the hosel rockets were slow tempo abbreviated swings? There is a phenomena that I'm going to make a video about called shaft droop. The shaft acts very differently at full speed than it does at half speed. A full speed swing would hit the ball square in the middle of the club face whereas the exact same swing at half speed would result in a shank, because of shaft droop.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf They were full shots. Divots right at the target. One was even with a hybrid. I was envisioning the heel of the club hitting the ball with the face perpendicular to the target line. Great strikes except those damn laterals were devastating. I'm hoping it's as simple as changing that vision to the heel being inside of the ball rather than literally trying to hit it with the heel, although that worked on the range. It may also be that I tried to add at the bottom and my old habit of early extending showed up. Got some work to do.
This guy is gonna make a zillion dollars.
Oh, that would be nice. Can you help? www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=D9KLSZE47S8AY
This is my only source of income right now because of covid. My wife thinks I'm just wasting my time on UA-cam and it's causing a lot of stress on our marriage. I really don't want to let her down. I would love for this to turn into something real. Not to mention it's what occupies my brain much of the time, so if I can make it into a career that would be so great. Thank you for the support.
@@HolyGrailOfGolf you got it. Just sent you a payment via PayPal. Tell your wife we said you’re definitely onto something here. I’ve consumed countless hours of golf instruction on UA-cam the last year since I promised myself I’d make a serious run at swinging the club the right way. I read Hogan’s five lessons first and subscribed to multiple channels on here. You’re not alone, there a A LOT of really good teachers on here. Your simple approach to the swing and blending your understanding of its physics with the “feels” is what I believe sets you apart. Keep it up!
@@sigchiry Thank you. I'll do my best.
So a very agressive swing L to L - correct ? By the way if you can get Paige Spiranac to do these, you'd have 5 Million views.
Frankly, I think her swing is ugly. I've never met her. I'm sure she's very nice but she may as well be naked. it's a cheap way to get views, but it works.
Completely wrong. If you try to hit the ball with ulnar deviation you have to roll your wrists before impact to square the club face. That throws the club head outside the plane you have been tracing during the downswing. Hello early extension, shanks, pull hooks, etc…. Yes, you can hit with power, but at a loss of accuracy; and it kills your short game. Instead, create trail wrist extension (or lead wrist flexion) during the backswing (not at setup) and hold it through the downswing and impact. That will encourage leg drive, body rotation, and tilt resulting in even greater power and accuracy.
I'm not advocating ulnar deviation.
Why are you making it so complicated? the ball is coming 95 MPH, just get the barrel there! the club is being swung at 105 mph, just get it there! Hands IN , CLUB OUT! simple!!
I tried hands in, club out via Mike Malaska teaching.. and I couldn't hit a single shot.
however, with this guy's teaching, I'm able to hit driver off the deck.. not greatly, but I can hit the ball off the deck with a driver now..
@@teddythodo3302 What do you want to hit driver off the deck for? I can hit a my 3 wood off just about any lie between 230 and 270. Driver off the deck ... I'm lucky to get it in the air. Why not use the club that's designed for long shots off the turf? My guess is that 1 out of 5l0 drivers off the deck will go further and straighter than a 3 wood.
Complicated? I'm explaining why people do what they do and why they do it. Ulnar deviation is horribly detrimental to any golf swing. If you don't have it, great, and this video isn't for you, but if you do, this video can change your golfing life.
Overhand Golf just to say I can. I feel like if I can hit a driver off the deck semi decent, a 3 wood may seem like a piece of cake. I’ve always struggled with 3wood. Could never hit the thing. It’s slowly becoming my favorite club
@@teddythodo3302 I couldn't agree more. I love my fairway wood so much that I'd rather be 190 to 250 yards out more than being 175 to 185. I find them much easier to hit and hit straight and far. I use the old Orlimar Trimetal fairway woods. People make fun of me because they're 20 years old but they're my favorite clubs in the bag. They swing themselves. I'm not kidding. There's just something magic about these things. Every eagle I make involves my 5 or 3 wood. I probably make an eagle every other round or three. Too many to count. I want a double eagle/abatrose!
The lighting is terrible, could barely see the arrow, you lost me with this one.
Yeah, it was 103º out today, so I had be quick before my phone overheated. I think I need to remake this video.
