- You will hit farther and straighter when you do this with your hips in the golf swing. This simple downswing move will fix a lot of your golf swing problems and make you a better golfer. Most golf tips say to "turn your hips" at the start of the downswing. Did you know turning your hips can cause you to swing over the top and slice the ball? When you learn to slow down your hips, you can create more speed and hit the ball farther with less effort.

I am Tom Saguto, PGA Member and founder of SagutoGolf. Thank you for visiting my instructional page where you can find how to get on the fast track to improving your golfing abilities. Whether you are a seasoned golfing veteran looking for a quick swing tune-up after an on-course emergency, or a beginner just looking to get the most out of your golfing experience, I am here to help you achieve your golfing goals.
My mission as your swing doctor is simple, to help you maximize your enjoyment in game of golf. Because, let’s face it, golf is a hard game.
My philosophy is wholly based on the student having a fun, meaningful experience in a frustrating and complicated game where potential lifelong golfers either quit because it is too difficult or that they experience some form of swing-related pain or discomfort. I mitigate these problems by focusing entirely on the student’s needs and goals while teaching a golf swing method that ultimately takes stress off of the common pain areas of the swing. - Спорт

Tom your a trip,everything you teach I believe most of us have been instructed wrong. Thanks for the great change,keep up the good work. Be Blessed
Finally someone addresses the proper way to release the hips in the downswing. Thanks Tom. Your awesome.
Hi Tom Love your teaching and your STYLE. It has helped me a lot. I agree that we should not rotate our hips first on the downswing. As for me on my DOWNSWING I like to THINK first, RIGHT side BEND with forward tilt and rotation. This happens in a split second. This allows the hips to move toward the target first and then rotation and of course I have had forward tilt from the begging of my backswing.
Watched the video then hit the simulator, instant change to shot shape and distance, both positive. Granted I'm still new and have lots to learn, but this was a fantastic lesson and has helped me onto the next step (whatever that is!)
I have a chronic low back pain. This fundamental is improving my aim and less traumatic on my back. Great tip. Thanks Saguto !😊
Yes! I was told over and over again to rotate and “fire” the hips like Rory but rotating left too early struggling with path. Loving the crispy contact Tom! 🙏🏻
Yep! Therein lies the missing link to that piece of misguided instruction. So welcome to "the dark side", where the spoils of "conventional" instruction - chronic inconsistency, physical pain, and endless frustration - yield to the fruits of body-friendly enjoyment of this great game for a lifetime. 😆
Have fun out there building in the correct hip action, and keep it crispy!!
Tom
Tom, you always explain these things so clearly! I have been seeing multiple websites and videos about slowing the hips but never really understood the concept until you described it here. My private instructor would always tell me that I release my power (hands) too early and now I realize it’s because I’m firing my hips at the start of the downswing. Thanks a bunch for the help!
I appreciate your kind words regarding my instruction content and teaching style, and I'm very glad to know that this lesson connected with you. Many misdiagnosed downswing and impact issues are actually a result of improper hip action at the transition. Get that right and everything just seems to fall into sequence as if on autopilot.
I hope this lesson performs well for you!!
Tom
Thanks Tom, this is a lightbulb moment for me. This is the first video I've seen that addresses the precise problem that I am having and illustrates the solution in a way that I can relate to.
My pleasure, David! I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you. Premature hip spinout is an issue that afflicts many golfers, sending their downswing paths out and across the ball. I hope this helps you overcome your problem and crisp up your ball striking!!
Tom
Hi Tom! I’m in my pre-season golf prep here oiling up the swing. Your drill is sure gonna help my game! Through your teaching I was able to parallel and then snap the hips for better release, club head speed and accuracy. Great teaching with a touch of humour. 😊
I'm glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you, Jacques - nice job building it into your swing!!
Thanks for your kind words regarding my instruction, and have fun out there in the approaching season!!
Tom
Excellent video Tom on not "firing the hips" to gain more distance! I am a victim of "firing my hips" on occasion and get a pulled left shot or a large fade! When I make a lateral move with my hips, which is most of the time, and as you suggest, the outcome is much better! Always look forward to your videos Tom! Keep up the good work!!!
Thanks John!!
I'd say that the majority of golfers out there are victims of that premature hip spinout move. If folks can get those hips working properly in the downswing they will experience noticeable - and likely significant - improvements in ball striking!
Tom
You’re the best Tom. Always making sense and always making the lesson relatable. I’ve been working on feeling as though my right shoulder pulls behind my head and before it completes my left hip bumps towards the target. This is the feeling; opposing pulling during the transition. The swing is shorter, snappier and I’m not spinning out causing me to come across the ball. I think the key is that the lateral move towards target should come sooner than most golfers think.
I appreciate your kind words and I'm glad to know that you are enjoying my instruction content!!
The "opposing" move you reference has been successfully deployed by many very good players; nice job incorporating it into your swing!! And yes - that lateral move can be an excellent downswing trigger for golfers who struggle with a premature hip spinout.
Thanks for your comment and keep up the great work!
Tom
Very crazy timing of this view cause I really needed this piece for my swing! Thank you. I really enjoy your videos and have really improved using your course.
Fantastic!! I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you, and I'm thrilled to learn of your improvement so far through the online school's course!!
Keep up the great work!!
Tom

WOW!.......... Intuitively I knew this because when I would try to fire my hips as is popularly told I would hit a lousy shot. Your explanation is beautiful and I now have a whole new mindset for my hip motion!
I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you, Dave!
Follow your intuition - it will lead you to the Land of Ball Striking Bliss.
Thanks - I'm glad you enjoyed the lesson!!
Tom
Man, i am the poster child for quik hips! I tried everything but what Tom is teaching. Saguto golf is for real ! Joined his online school . Ready to play my best due to this man!
LOL! I also had some misbehaving hips, Andre. Once they finally graduated obedience school my ball striking and shot shape consistency improved dramatically. 😎
I'm so glad to know that you've enrolled in the school! Embrace the system, embrace the process, and you will ultimately embrace ownership of a well-functioning swing and the resulting ball striking bliss it provides!
Tom
Been watching you for 2 years now, and I credit your advice with how much my game has improved over that time. Thank you!
Thank you, Evan - I sincerely appreciate your kind words and support, and I am very glad to learn of your improvement through my channel's instruction content!!
Keep up the great work!!
Tom
Tom this awesome tip fixed my recent driver issue where I was spinning out and hooking my driver shots to the left. You are truly an amazing instructor. Happy subscriber too!! Thanks - Dave
Fantastic!! I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you, Dave - nice job building it into your swing!! 💪💪
Thanks for your support in sharing your improvement and keep up the great work!!

Thanks Jim! Just trying to keep it golden crispy.... 😎
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Another fantastic video, this time one in which the hip action -- and a method to monitor it and become more aware of it -- is highlighted. Great job, Tom -- again!
My pleasure! I'm glad to know that this hip lesson resonated well with you!!
Thanks for your kind words and ongoing support!
Tom
@SagutoGolf Tom i have been told so many times by my local S&T golf instructor to stop using my hips early. He has tried to imbed this into my head. This video explains it to a tee! Thank you for your videos! Btw from slowing down my hips i have went from a 16 handicap to a 5.5 handicap in just under 2 years.
Wow - that is some seriously dramatic improvement, Chad!!
I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you, and kudos to your S&T instructor for helping you to get those hips working properly.
Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the great work!!
Tom
Can relate to this for a long time, I think early extension comes in to let of my game because of this too Tom. Love your content. Class 👌🏻
Thanks Thomas! I'm glad to know that this lesson connected with you, and yes - if you execute this action properly it should really help in your battle to overcome that early extension.
Thanks for your kind words and have fun out there!!

Hi Tom. I recently could not hit my driver anymore. Then I tried slowing down hips and keeping my back to the target longer. It works. Thanks for that video.
Oftentimes that premature hip rotation is the culprit, Dennis. Nice job figuring it out and keep up the great work!!
Tom
This is an amazing tip. I think this is the missing piece of my swing. I could never figure out why I can’t shallow the club after all your videos I’ve watched and I realized about a week ago that my hips firing to early is the problem. Amazing timing with this video! I love you ,Tom. I hope to come see you one day in Dirty Myrtle!
Nice job figuring it out on your own, Hogan, and I'm very glad to know that this "timely" lesson validated your findings!!
Keep working at it properly and you'll get that path shallowed!

My first round this year will be early in April, Myrtle Beach here I come.tons of confidence,thank you,Tom
Awesome!! Have a great time down here in the Grand Strand area, Tim!!
Tom
👍🏻 Awesome!
For years I’ve been trying to “Fire the hips” (as many suggest) and trying to keep my upper body back
… near impossible! 🙄
As a result, I can hardly ever finish IN BALANCE 😡
I can only dream of posing in a balanced finish like I see golfers do in TV.
I am definitely going to try this in the X-Golf simulator this morning 👍🏻
And you’re right, probably even more important with the Driver. My miss with the Driver is not a slice, it’s a push out to the right (a block), … probably because my hips are too far ahead of my arms, right?
Thanks, Tom
… you’re the best 👊🏻
I'm glad this lesson resonated well with you, Parski, and I hope it does the trick for you! Just remember that the "firing" move is likely well-ingrained, so be patient in trying to implement this change.
As for the driver, had to say without seeing the swing but it could be that you're getting stuck and that's forcing the path that is too much from the inside.
Hopefully things will soon be thawing out up there so you can leave the sim behind for the real thing!
Tom
This may your best video yet. It's a great image. Thanks as always for good stuff- Be good-Russ
I’ve had this problem, as many others I see on the range. This is very difficult to overcome. The “feel” that’s helped me, as we know “feel” isn’t totally “real”, is to try and keep my back to the target as long as possible, and swing inside out. I realize it’s all a sequence, but some of us have to exaggerate, over do it, to get to where we need to be, as you explain in your videos. I define the move you’re explaining as “spinning out”. To me it’s like taking off in a car. You don’t slam on the gas, or you’ll spin, and lose control. It’s a gradual acceleration to get more traction, as we all need in the golf swing…. To make any changes in the golf swing, we have to stop swinging so hard as well, or we’ll end up in the ditch, that would be the woods, in golf terms…..
Nice comment and analogy, Ron! Indeed - for golfers have have deeply ingrained that hip spinout move at the start of the downswing this will take some incremental and exaggerated drilling to overcome. The "ghosts of swings past" do not vanish on their own, and this particular one can be quite stubborn.
By the way, have you considered the comprehensive, structured, sequential learning platform of my online school?

Finally I've been given the holy grail by Saguto. This was the missing link I've been searching for.
No more hitting fat shots or trying to avoid hitting fat shots by using other techniques.
By moving forward first and then rotating the hips I am now swinging fearlessly as hard as I can with full confidence of hitting the ball dead solid.
Unfortunately, Robert, such sorcery from this dark underworld of golf instruction rarely finds its way to the mainstream because if too many folks found out about it the mainstream would then be rendered irrelevant....... 😎

2nd best golf tip video ever. The first best was your "THE BEST GOLF SWING LESSON YOU WILL EVER HAVE (The "Red Pill" of Golf - Golf Tip)" which within two weeks took my scores from 100 down to low 90s, and after another couple of weeks, down to mid 80s, and been consistent since. Tried this tip this arvo, betting low 80s coming soon. (Scores mentioned are for 18 holes on short 9 hole non-pro course, but hey, doesn't matter, still great improvement, I'm stoked after trying to play for 5 years, and now can actually play).
I'm glad to know that these lessons are resonating well with you, and I'm thrilled for your dramatic improvement!!

Just can’t get enough of your videos Tom! You’re hilarious ! I’m really enjoying watching them and learning so much! You make me laugh 😊.

I'm glad to know that you're binge watching me like a Netflix series, Micaela!!..... 😆😆

I watched this and thought... "That's not me", "I don't turn my hips too early", "no way this is why my downswing sucks" etc. Well, guess what... I tried the drill, and failed super hard. To do the drill successfully, I had to lower my arms A LOT more than I was, before I turned. This is a game changer. Thank you so much, Mr. Saguto. I've never seen or heard this anywhere else, in 20 years of playing. This is gold. I'm just blown away. Thank you

I'm glad you enjoyed it, Gordon!!
You'll find the vast majority of my short game content in my online school because it doesn't carry much appeal in the world of UA-cam golf instruction. Having said that, you'll find a couple of YT videos on this topic if you type the word "chip" into my channel's YT search bar.

Great video. I was really struggling with thin shots due to standing up (hips moving out way too fast). Slowed it down and immediately improved contact.

My main swing thoughts are arms straight shoulder turn , spin tilt and hips back to address position when I hit the ball . I play crap golf if I don’t do one of those things and when I do all the other parts just take care of themselves and I flush the ball pretty much were I aim it
All from your vids I’m nailing the ball play yesterday every drive was nailed down the fareway even put a 5 wood tee ball on the front of a short dog leg par 4 cut the corner felt the confidence to take the line

works a treat tom, thanks 😊👍
Awesome! I'm glad this lesson helped you, William!!
Keep up the great work!!
Tom
This is exactly what I’ve been fighting for 5 months.I was literally pulling the shot 30 degrees offline. Completely killed my game. I could not figure out how to stop doing it. Damn near quit the game. This episode and the other one with right elbow tuck fixed it. Immediately I started hitting the ball clean again. Thx
Yeah, the dead pull left is what I got from "hip firing" too.
That's fantastic, Hunter - I'm very glad to know that the combination of these two lessons helped to rescue your game from the ledge!!
Thanks again for sharing your improvement!!
Tom
Smae here Hunter. Hit on a simulator this week n said ehhh i have nothing to lose let me do this elbow tuck thing the pros do. I swear it felt like i was gonna pushit right n they were dead center. 🤯🤯🤯🤯
Same
@Michael Doyle - You and countless others out there!!
watched your video on hand path and club path loved it
the question i have is where should hand path between the ball and a your toe line
i realize the distance between hand and club head will increase or decrease due to the length of the club
but the hand path would be the same
I'm glad that lesson resonated well with you, John!
The only real variable - as you allude to - is the difference in length/lie angle from one club to the next. That certainly changes the "shaft plane", but since the hand position is the same for each club - even with the inside of the lead thigh from the face-on view and directly under the chin from a down-the-line perspective (with the exception of the driver, where we push the hands out an inch or so), we should not really "feel" any difference in the hand path between the various clubs.

Slow motion Mac & cheese! I don’t know what it is bout this dude cuz I respond to his teaching. For some reason i actually retain the lessons to take to the coarse. Thank you for simplifying the golf! Im addicted to the golf! Your my plug!
I sincerely appreciate your kind words, Kyle, and I'm very glad to know that my instruction is resonating well with you!!
Thanks so much for sharing your improvement and keep up the great work!!

Hi Tom. Great video as usual. Is there a reason why you use thick grips? If you have a video on this topic please post link. Cheers mate!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m using JumboMax Ultralite grips in extra-large. I wanted to give them a try for a few reasons, including the fact that DeChambeau uses them and we share similar swing philosophies. Since then, I haven't looked back. These grips keep my hands much quieter - which I personally prefer. Also, since my fingers don't wrap all the way around and dig into my palms, I'm not triggering any forearm tension or activating arms muscles that may otherwise have a tendency to take control of the swing.
The Jumbos are not necessarily for everyone - and my fingers are a bit longer than average - so I routinely tell folks to "try before you buy." However, having a properly sized grip is critically important as it is our only connection to the object that is going to deliver us blissful joy or deep anguish, yet it is perhaps also the most overlooked equipment fitting component in golf.
Tom
High quality instruction on these vids as always. Will you do another round of golf with dad video? For fun and not so much for instruction. The stick in the pants is a good look. People definitely make room for me on the sidewalk and in the mall now.
😆😆😆
I hadn't considered that application, Jason, but it sure can help clear some space around us when in public!!
Perhaps I’ll do another at some point, and if so I'll see if camera-shy dad wants to come along. My hesitancy is that vlogs take a considerable amount of time to film and then edit down to an acceptable length. Couple that with the fact that vlog viewership lags well behind the lesson videos, and that makes it somewhat difficult to justify the efforts and opportunity costs.
I will, however, be certain to tell dad that his adoring fan base wants him back....😎
Thanks!
Tom
Thank you so much for this very important tip.

I like this because it gives me meaning on why I need to be slower and more deliberate on down swing
Many amateurs take the club back to a great position, Andy, but then things fall apart at the transition when that "hit" instinct takes over and throws everything out of sync. This proper hip action can really help to overcome that tendency, and I'm glad to know that the lesson resonated well with you.

Great video Tom! What do think about pushing the hips back in transition? I'm struggling with this lately. I'll give your method a try!
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Frankie!
With regard to pushing the hips back at the transition, that might be a difficult concept to incorporate. Here is a video from my channel's archives about getting the tailbone moving towards the target: ua-cam.com/video/bXV7g1PVxbA/v-deo.html This may help you to accomplish what you are considering.
While there are certainly videos on my channel related to these topics, a better option would be my FREE mini course “The Top 3 Things You Need to Be a Great Ball Striker”: go.saguto.golf/ It's a great way to gain a fundamental understanding of this system as well as an introduction to the instruction style that has thousands of men and women from across the globe - including many accomplished, low-handicap, competitive players and spanning all age ranges from junior to super-senior - enjoying the best golf of their lives: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews

Us avg golfers can truly throw out about 70% of every single video on UA-cam or social media from a golf pro. But this is one of the 3 top things that rally will change your game and is doable! Realistic for us. Most of us are not ready or can truly relate to most golf help tips. This is a great one
Thanks you, Joel - I'm very glad to know that this lesson video connected well with you!!
(Though I sure hope you're not tossing all my other stuff into the trash bin..... 😎)
Tom
Excellent as always…thank you.
Thanks Dale - I appreciate that and I'm glad you enjoyed the lesson!!

Hi Tom! New subscriber and love your videos. I have started to lose my swing over the past couple of years because I don't play 3 times a week like I used to and lost the feel for it. Now I'm looking for a swing I can trust and always count on anytime I play. Your videos make it seem so simple with less moving parts and can't wait to try them out the next time I can get on the range. With the thought of delaying the hips, would thinking about having the arms just fall from the top of the swing or keeping your back at the target as long as you can, rather than firing the hips, as your first move help with this swing change?
Hi Josh, and welcome aboard!!
This body-friendly, powerful, consistent, low-maintenance swing system is designed to provide a lifetime of enjoyment for all golfers, and since it is rooted in physics, geometry, and human physiology it does not discriminate by age or ability - from kids to seniors and everyone in between, inclusive of the best players in the world. As such it ought to serve your needs quite well!
With regard to your question, yes - those options are fine if they happen to work better for you. I do my best to convey multiple “feels” or thoughts throughout the swing wherever possible because we're all different physiologically and psychologically, and something that resonates effectively with one golfer may not necessarily work for another. However, no matter the variety of suggested feels/thoughts offered for a particular element of the swing, they are all directed at getting different golfers to achieve the desired positions, motions, and ball striking results. This is one reason is why the comprehensive, structured, sequential learning platform of my online school is so effective, and why thousands of folks across the globe are now enjoying the best golf of their lives as a result (and I'm happy to let their unsolicited testimonials tell the story: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews). The lessons and drills provide the guidelines and set the boundaries, while allowing ample leeway for each individual golfer to infuse and exercise their own uniqueness. Here's a link if you would like to know more about it - saguto.golf

This was SO helpful. I always spin my hips!!!! TY
You and the vast majority of the amateur golfing world, Julie...
I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you!!
Tom
Tom, big fan of all of your videos. Do you still do in-person lessons by chance? I’m located in southeastern NC and would love to make the trip down for a lesson
I'm glad you're enjoying my channel's content, Nate!
For the time being I have phased out general in-person instruction so I can further dedicate my efforts in support of the online school. I will, however, continue the V1 Swing Video Analysis lessons as they are instrumental to the progress of my school's members, and these can be done for anyone from anywhere across the globe, school member or not. This enables me to put my eyes on your swing and offer some very specific observations and corrective action plans if applicable. The process involves downloading the free V1 app and then submitting two videos to me through the app - one down-the-line (captured from your stance line, not the target line) and the other face-on. You'll find more information about the V1 Analysis on this page of my website site: saguto.golf/p/lessons
And here's a link if you are not already enrolled in the school and would like to know more about it: saguto.golf
Feel free to check back periodically to see if I have resumed in-person instruction on some limited basis.
Thanks!
Tom
Long time fan of your lessons. Great video! Is that an oversized grip on the driver? I have been thinking of trying one
I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
Yes - I’m using JumboMax Ultralite grips in extra-large on all my clubs.

Another great video Tom ! One key is in the downswing.
Thanks - I'm glad to know that you enjoyed it!!
My local pro taught me this probably ten years ago. I practiced this for a couple of weeks, and I improved my distance by a club and a half to two clubs. What I do is hold the hips to just before impact to impact. It works great !!!!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing your success with this concept, Chris, and keep up the great work!!
Tom
Ok bot, lets hear more lies
I can’t find the video right now, but I once heard you say, “Crispy mountains!”Has anyone ever called you the Bob Ross of golf teachers? Love the simplicity, beauty, and enthusiasm of your presentations. 😜

So many golfers say so many different and opposite thing but this video is the right one for me
Sadly, many misconstrued and/or misguided teachings of "conventional" instruction - such as turning the shoulders level while independently lifting the club, shifting into and torquing against a firm trail side, actively rolling the hands through impact, etc. - have relegated generations of golfers to the vast abyss of chronic frustration (and chronic back/knee/hip pain as well). I’m doing my best here to clear these up one by one and put an end to this madness.
Thanks for your comment - I'm very glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you!!
Tom
My hips tend to out race my upper body when I'm hitting a driver, resulting in a bad block to the right (like you said OFF THE PLANET). This is a great explanation and drill!
You have a lot of company with regard to that issue, Chris. I hope this lesson and drill perform well for you!!
Tom
Lol at first I wasn't sure about yhis channel but after watching a couple of vids I like your personality
I do understand, Jacob.....
Welcome to "the dark side", where the spoils of "conventional" instruction - chronic inconsistency, physical pain, and endless frustration - yield to the fruits of body-friendly enjoyment of this great game for a lifetime. 😆
I'm very glad to have you on board!!

thanks for responding
but where should the hand path be closer to the target line or closer to the toe line

Once again brilliant 👏
Thank you, Philip - I appreciate that and I'm glad you enjoyed the lesson!
Tom
I’ve seen a lot of your videos and I’ve taken quite a few tips but sometimes seemed to mess my swing up more. But sometimes helped. I really like this video for me cause I shoot my hips hard and fast and early wayy before my arms and I slightly come over the ball and for some reason it’s never as bad on my irons and I might top the ball every now and then with the irons but mostly good, but with hybrids and 3 wood and especially driver I play a weird slice kinda like a hard fade but I still drive it 280-300. Just way right
Hi Jeremiah,
It is important to understand that the videos, lessons, and drills on this free channel - while fully aligned with the swing method I teach - address a variety of topics, issues, feels, and/or common flaws/fixes from one episode to the next. They are certainly not intended to be taken as a comprehensive, step-by-step learning platform like the structured curriculum of my online school, which I strongly recommend to anyone who truly wishes to get on the proper path towards owning this swing. Thousands of men and women from across the globe - including many seasoned, low-handicap, competitive players and spanning all age ranges from junior to super-senior - are now enjoying the best golf of their lives as a result, and I'm happy to let their unsolicited testimonials tell the story: saguto.golf/p/sagutogolfreviews.

Obviously you've got plenty of athleticism and swing speed based on those yardages, so let's get you dialed in!!
Tom
I KNEW this one was gonna be juicy in the first 10 seconds, or should I say “crispy.” I developed a nasty snap hook on my pursuit to get into that “dreamy” impact position everyone raves about. I love Rory’s swing and the more I try to duplicate it, the worse I get and the more problems I introduce. I Could never understand why I couldn’t get the club to shallow out behind me on my down swing and why my weight shift to the front foot was suddenly non existent. Now it all makes sense. I have rabid squirrel hips. This one was both juicy and crispy. Love it.
"Rabid squirrel hips", David??? I love it!!! 😆😆😆
I'm glad this lesson connected with you. And yes - while there are certainly helpful elements we can extract from our favorite Tour pro's swing, we ultimately must build a swing that works for us and which we can truly take ownership of. That's why I do my best to convey multiple “feels” or thoughts throughout the swing wherever possible. We're all different physiologically and psychologically, and something that resonates effectively with one golfer may not necessarily work for another. However, no matter the variety of suggested feels/thoughts offered for a particular element of the swing, they are all directed at getting different golfers to achieve the desired positions, motions, and ball striking results.

I hope this lesson performs well for you. Have fun out there neutralizing that squirrel and frying your ball striking up to a deep crispiness!! 😎
Tom
Yes, more solid gold from the best on the net.
Thanks - I appreciate that and I'm very glad to know that this episode lived up to the "gold standard"!! 😎
Tom
I just finished reading Hogans 5 lessons, and he talks about starting the hips, then shoulder ect. As someone who rarely started their hips before their shoulders, after reading the book. I’ve been more consistent, pretty accurate, and I started to gain some distance. Should I try and incorporate this lessons or stick with what I’m doing?
Hi Joseph,
There's a lot of great information in that book, but there have also been many misinterpretations that have led numerous golfers - and their ball flight - astray. I do my best to take what Mr. Hogan conveys in the book as his "feels", apply it to the reality of what he actually did in his swing, and translate it into something we all can learn well from. For example, here is a lesson from the archives on what Mr. Hogan called "the most important part of the swing" - the starting of the downswing with the proper lower body action: ua-cam.com/video/iejRWhuB7y8/v-deo.html
Have a look at that lesson if you can, and marry it up with this most recent video. This will help you to avoid the premature spinout of the hips that afflicts so many golfers.

Hi tom, quick question: is it helpful to try and synchronize the hip “turn” with the sensation of “punching” the ball with your trail hand so that both are done at the same moment?
I’ve had success with the though of “delaying the hit” from one of your other videos
Hi Robbie,
It's really a matter of what actions/sensations work best for you and from there to let your ball striking and shot shape be your guide. This is why I do my best to convey multiple “feels” or thoughts throughout the swing wherever possible. We're all different physiologically and psychologically, and something that resonates effectively with one golfer may not necessarily work for another. However, no matter the variety of suggested feels/thoughts offered for a particular element of the swing, they are all directed at getting different golfers to achieve the desired positions, motions, and ball striking results.

Hi i got a question, should you throw your trailarm wrist or hold it bend throw impact?
It will release through the zone, and it should be fully straightened shortly past impact. Here is a lesson specific to the trail arm: ua-cam.com/video/ukwnUkpWxHM/v-deo.html

I have an issue with early extension and hoping this drill will help begin to eliminate my hips moving towards the ball in the down swing.

Great drill, definitely a different feel, regards “Bob”
Yes - this is going to be a different feel for a lot of golfers who make that very common premature spinout move, Bob. I'm glad you enjoyed it and I hope it performs well for you!!
Tom
This was huge for me, really changed my swing and shot shape for better.
Awesome - I'm very glad to know that this lesson worked well for you!! Great job incorporating this important hip move into your swing so quickly!!
Tom
Thanks Tom
Will be giving this a try tomorrow at junior coaching 👍 i will let you know how i get on⛳️
Do you have any ideas for fun putting games i can try out to improve my skills please, a mention in the video would be cool
Thanks your the best
❤ Harrison ⛳️
I hope it performs well for you, Harrison!
There's really not much on my channel related to putting. You'll find the vast majority of my short game content in my online school because it doesn't carry much appeal in the world of UA-cam golf instruction.
Have fun out there tomorrow!
Tom
Hello my name is Harrison
I now dont fire my hips too early!
We tried the stick in the belt loop which felt a little strange but after a few shots slowing the swing it felt good. What my Dad noticed was it helps me focus on downswing from the belt line and not from the top.
Pretty good results from tonights session Tom, i did get a few funny looks from some members but one important thing is take the stick out before you go in a doorway👍
Thankyou so much ❤
Harrison
Always learning
@harrison golf - Yes, that stick in the belt loops might cause issues in public......😆😆
Nice job with the drill. Thanks for sharing your results with it and keep up the great work!!

Hi Tom, I will do this tonight at the range.
Great! I hope it performs well for you, Jeffrey!!

Gold, baby!!
Yes indeed, Bob. Happy mining!! 😎

Thanks, perhaps talk a bit about how Hogan's explanation of the downswing (he pushes hips forward while starting to turn them) vs firing them too early. Can be a bit confusing
Here's one from my channel's archives: ua-cam.com/video/iejRWhuB7y8/v-deo.html
LMAO!! Dude! You rock. Seriously tho… way to keep things fun and light. I had a round last week where I hit a couple of dreaded… I won’t say it but it rhymes with tanks… this is what I need right here.. There’s gold in this macaroni and cheese! Thx bud..
