The BEST Golf Swing Tip of ALL TIME (Arnold Palmer's FAVORITE Golf Tip)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 чер 2020
- The BEST GOLF SWING TIP OF ALL TIME. Do you want to wear out the sweet spot on the center of your clubface like that? Arnold Palmer's one golf swing thought CAN take care of your whole golf swing and make it happen powerfully, simply, body-friendly - leading to more FUN for you. Take a golf swing tip from one of the greatest golfers of all time and begin hitting the golf ball extremely solid with more yardage and FUN!
What's the GREATEST GOLF SWING TIP OF ALL TIME? It's quite simple and it will cause your golf swing to happen naturally without thinking so much about it. This swing tip was featured in a Golf Digest article highlighting Arnold Palmer's best golf tips. This was one of his favorite tips - "point the lead shoulder at the ball." That's it - that's ALL you need to have a fantastic, powerfully consistent swing.
HOW THIS GOLF TIP IS SO AWESOME:
1. Point the lead shoulder at the ball - maintains your body's relationship to the golf ball throughout the golf swing leading to crispy clean contact and finding the center of the clubface ALL DAY LONG.
2. As you do this, your hips naturally turn (powered by the turning of the torso) - creating an effortless power source for you in the golf swing.
3. You stay centered over the ball for clean contact shot-after-shot. You'll notice that this swing thought ELIMINATES SWAYING AND SHIFTING off of the golf ball, leading to your best contact ever.
4. The Backswing - the club will trace the proper golf swing path leading to an efficient and simple one-plane swinging motion.
5. The Downswing - the club naturally reacts to the turning of the torso and travels on the proper path into the golf ball INSTEAD of chopping at it and swinging over the top.
EFFECTIVELY, this golf swing thought can eliminate a ton of golf swing flaws and problems for you, IF YOU ALLOW it to do the work.
Is there a catch? NO. However, like all good things, you must do some work up front to get this thought to perform correctly every single time. You have to master the 3 GOLF SWING PREREQUISITES that I discuss in the episode. They will help you master this tip and ensure that your swing repeats all day long.

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.

Hi Tom, thanks a Million from London UK. . Played this morning and my ball striking was awesome. Hit a lot more solid golf shots than normal. I used the "point shoulder to ball thought". Many thanks
Michael
Does "point the left shoulder at the ball" work when hitting with a 3-wood Off The Deck? :)
What is your opinion on the ten finger grip? I use it and i love it, gives me a ton of punch on the ball. But i want to hear your take on it...
GORD Ito - Absolutely! It works for every club in the bag.
If you'd really like to own this swing through your bag please consider the SagutoGolf online school. For just $10 US/month or $99 US/year you'll have unlimited access to a comprehensive members-only learning system for the entire swing and much more.

Thanks!
Tom
Daniel Germano - I have no objection to the 10-finger grip as long as it is fundamentally sound and the handle is properly positioned in the fingers and not the palms. A poor grip causes a host of problems including losing control of the clubface, creating tension, and activating the wrong parts of the body at the wrong time.
Here's a video I did recently on the grip: ua-cam.com/video/g-Oue2IWbd4/v-deo.html.

Tom, I'm 72 years and play decent albeit inconsistent golf. Prior to this vid I was shooting in the mid eighties. After watching I went to a nine hole course and by concentrating on pointing my left shoulder to the ball and turning my torso I was hitting the ball longer and straighter. I shot 38 (two over par). If not for my subpar short game I could have scored better. The next day I played this course again and shot 35 with an eagle on a par 5! My goal is to shoot my age and I think that is now possible. Thanks, and continue using the KISS method of instruction. "Keep it simple stupid"⛳️. 🏌🏾
TheBanjoFlyBoy - You're onto me! I have to Keep it Simple because - well - that's the extent of my intellectual capacity.....
I'm so glad to know that this video helped you. Based on what you're telling me you're age doesn't stand a chance on that scorecard, and I look forward to hearing from you as soon as you beat it!!
Thanks for sharing your success!
Tom
Yo Tom, love your lessons and will be signing up for your course. Google Ben Hogan on Ed Sullivan Show. He starts it off by having you pin your arms to your torso. Eddie.
Saguto golf
This guy is by far the best golf instructor I've ever listened to or watched and it's not even remotely close. All of those other channels babble and it never does anything but his lessons are so simple and so effective.
Tom, I was waiting for you to put up a new video to post this. I only discovered your channel this week when your video "You've been swinging the club WRONG your whole life" popped up on my timeline. I watched that video with a lot of skepticism and I have to tell you, I've been binge watching your videos all week and you are ABSOLUTELY right. I watched one of your older videos yesterday where you talked about how you felt about the stack and tilt method, your struggles and how this method restored your game. After struggling with a deteriorating swing and game for the last several years, I finally broke from "traditional" swing theory and tried your method.
HOLY SHIT...what a difference. Your methods have fixed my driver, almost completely removed the vicious snap hook that my 5 iron produced regularly and I'm hitting the ball better than I have in decades.
I've realized that through your videos that there are just too many variables in the traditional method and if you're not playing every day and hitting 1000 balls it's almost impossible to hit it constently. Hell, even if you are it's almost impossible. This method is sooooo much simpler, so much more straightforward and so much more logical.
You've fixed, in a few videos, what I thought was going to take the entire summer and you did it in two video. My God what a transformation.
I can't thank you enough.
Mike Stock - I'm so sorry for taking so long to respond to you - It's been a bit crazy here in SagutoGolfland of late!
I am deeply humbled by your comments, and I'm most appreciative of you sharing your experience and success!!
Please keep me posted on your continued progress, and thank you again for your very kind words!!!
Best regards,
Tom
@@SagutoGolf, I am in the same boat as Mike Stock. I just recently...last week started following you and I am really enjoying all of your videos!!
@@SagutoGolf Tom, apologies for the delayed response. A shoulder injury (unrelated to golf) combined with a Northeast winter led to an extended break from the game. I'm just getting back into golf and working through post surgery rehab. Like an idiot, I experimented with my old swing (sorry for the betrayal) and I simply can't stop the over the top, spinning out move that has plagued me for years. I'm back to fully embracing my inner Sagutoness. I'm rewatching ALL your videos and working on the crispiness. Keep doing what you're doing. Your energy is amazing.
Your teaching points have totally changed my game for the better. Making better contact than I ever have, awesome stuff Tom
I’ve been following you for awhile now (3 months) and love your teaching methods for the golf swing. Other instruction has failed to relate to me. Yours is the first one that made sense. Now you have an awesome single thought tip that is going to allow me to have a swing that I can have fun with. ( like you’ve been saying). Thank you Mr. Saguto. I appreciate your instruction. I know you can’t beat the game but sure is going to be fun to try.
B Moe - I truly appreciate your very kind words and am very glad to learn of your success (and resulting enjoyment)!!
Thanks very much, and keep up the great work!
Tom
Love the energy, love the stoke.
That was the best 16+ minutes of my day so far - Thank you Mr. Palmer & Rock on Tom Saguto !! 🤓
Genuine, every word. Have been watching for 2+weeks and wearing out my net and swing caddie 300. Just amazing improvement in "contacting the ball at the same point every single time" Thanks Tom!
Marty Johnson - That's great to hear! I truly appreciate your kind words, and keep up the fabulous work!!
Tom
Thanks soooo much for all the videos. I’ve watched loads over the years and none come even close to how you explain it. I used to play with the worst swing and a baseball grip with a foot in between (slap stick). You’ve made me now understand everything and can actually play the game now. You sir are a hero 👌🏻
I truly appreciate your kind words, Gary, and I'm very glad you are benefiting from the lesson videos on my channel!! (I'm not sure about that "hero" thing though, LOL!)
A couple of suggestions for you:
1) If you'd really like to get on the fast track towards owning this swing, please consider enrolling in the SagutoGolf online school. For just $10 US/month or $99 US/year you'll have unlimited access to a comprehensive members-only learning system for the full swing (including the finer points and feels), the short game, and much more. The school's intuitive course curriculum greatly simplifies the entire process through succinct, step-by-step videos, and I'm constantly adding new content. Here's a link if you'd like additional info: saguto.golf/p/golf-swing-simplified-tom-saguto-pga.
2) For a very useful supplement to the online school, consider purchasing a copy of the Stack & Tilt book by Mike Bennett and Andy Plummer. It will serve you well as a textbook reference guide for the swing and will be highly supportive of what you will learn in my online school.
Thanks again, and keep up the great work!
Tom
Dude love your energy. Very authentic you're the real deal.
Love this. A real classic. Thanks
Thank you!!! Best time hitting the ball after watching this. Just pointing that left shoulder over the ball made a world of difference.
VH413 - Fantastic! I'm so glad to know that it helped you!!
Tom
Tom,
Thank you for your videos and instruction. Today I played 9 holes for the first time in a year. Last year I played only once (9 holes). I shot a 41 today that included a birdied on the par 5 9th. I did this with literally no practice or even range warm up. I am so excited to see where this swing will take my game as I get it more groved it. Most of my "misses" into the greens where left pulls, due to my old move of really spinning my hips hard that caused my weight to fall back. When I kept if forward on the down swing I was amazed at the strike I was producing. When we were done my friend said "ok...what is up? You have not hit a ball in a year, and come out and shoot 41 (I took his dollar too🙂). I gave him your name and told him to watch your videos. I told him it is truly game changing! Thanks again for what you do. It is great stuff.
PS - I used single length irons and 2 utility clubs the length of a six iron. I play from the up tee (yellow) with a goal of 200 from the tee shots. I hit a couple 230+, which is huge for me!! I am super excited what the future holds. I feel that with my single length clubs I will Grove this move much faster. Will I ever shoot a 68....no, but I am very confident I can get my scores into the 70's. It blows my mind that I even think that way so very confidently. It is a great feeling - totally thanks to your teaching. Sorry so long, but I am just amazed. Cheers and take care.
Dale Pike - I truly appreciate your kind words and for sharing your great success (and thanks also for directing your friend to SagutoGolf)!!
Now.......will we have to wait until 2021 for you to play your next round, or do you think you might be motivated to get back out there again a little sooner than that???
Cheers!
Tom
Finding Tom on you tube was the greatest thing to ever happen to my golf game. I’m hitting the ball so much further and with greater consistency. My golf mates don’t know what’s hit them😎 thanks Tom👍
Andrew Warren - Thanks so much for your endorsement and support!! I'm very glad to learn that this is working so well for you. After you've had enough fun beating up on your golf mates, please feel free to send them to SagutoGolf!
Cheers!
Tom
Tom, thank you so much for your instruction. It's so easy to learn from you. God bless!!!
This is the best tip I have seen you teach. It makes the swing almost automatic.
Thanks Bob Pegram! Glad to know this video tip worked so well for you!!
Tom
I totally agree.
I tried this Arnold Palmer golf tip swing. The third round I made my first hole-in-one.
A nice baby draw to a par 3.
I started hitting over the greens with my 2nd shots and had to go down one club. Nice.
Thank you Saguto.
That's fabulous, Michael, and congrats on your first ACE!!
Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the great work!!
Tom
Great tip, Thanks Arnold Palmer and Tom for bringing it back and showing us how to put it together!
That's a great one from The King. I'm glad to know that it resonated well with you, Michael!!
TS
Thanks for the tips Tom!!!!
Wining and sniveling -brilliant made me laugh out loud !!!
I am happy to find you. My avg 9 holes result are about 45-50 shots. A few days ago i shot 38 and i dont even practise lot. Just using your golf metodh. Greetings from Finland.
Markku Tervo - That's terrific!! Thank you so much for sharing your success with me!
Cheers!
Tom
Awesome-everything comes back to staying connected. Truly simple
Tom awesome teaching! Thanks guy.
This is the "tip" that left my swing at some stage of my life resulting in my powerful consistent semi-pulls with irons for many years. I was 5 handicap once and probably did the "tip" unknowingly when I was young. I only read this now and tried a few sponge balls on the sitting room carpet. Eureka, I know how to hit down the line again. All it took was a little bit extra effort of will to get my left shoulder to point at the ball. I just know it will work on the golf course next weekend. Thanks Major Tom. PS: Have you any " tip" to remove scorch marks from a carpet. I want to stay alive till next Sunday.
Well, M P Downes, at least it just a scorch mark and not a divot. A scorch mark you may be able to blame on a pet; carpet divots need to be covered by furniture otherwise the obituary is almost certain to follow. 😆
I'm very glad to have reconnected you to your past glory days through this video lesson, and I hope it plays out well for you next weekend!!
Cheers!
Tom
Last evening I was struggling for 8 holes while trying to apply this. 9th hole, finally: nailing them like never before. Thanks man!

Hi John,
I truly appreciate your kind words and I am very glad the instruction on my channel has benefited your game!!
Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!!
Tom
Excellent video Tom. You crack me up with the fun energy you deliver in your vids. New sign in the hitting net is a great addition too.
Thank you Tim, I'm glad to have you on the channel😀
Straight forward, no bullshit, love it
that tip at 6:50 about keeping the weight forward and loading the front leg in the back swing may be the most impactful improvement to my swing I've ever made. I was doing legs all wrong.
You still are, you need to load ur back foot on the way down to make u rotate properly. Saguto loads his front leg, which pops his hip violently up; it will ruin his back in the long run. Check out Golfletics' youtube channel for more insights.
Brandon Abel - I'm so glad to know this lesson helped you! Loading the front side allows you to keep the circle of your swing centered, leading to a repeatable low point for consistent contact. It is a key component of this Body-Friendly swing that has countless golfers offering unsolicited testimonials about their newfound effortless and pain-free distance, along with greatly improved accuracy and, of course, lower scores!
Thanks so much for sharing your success! Please keep me posted on your continued progress!!
Tom
Not sure about keeping the weight on the lead leg during the backswing. Watching the swing, it’s clear the lead leg is bent on the backswing and then loaded right before the backswing is completed. Look at the illustration of Arnold; his left foot is on the ball of his foot during the backswing.
@@bgraham150 Yes there is another video explaining how simultaneously slightly bending your lead leg while straightening the trail leg while help transition the power to fire your hips for rotation.
Thanks for keeping things simple. I can actually retain the information from your videos and put it in practice in the range or the course. Tried the Palmer tip today, and it's pure gold.
That's great, Mario! I'm very glad to know that these lessons are benefiting your game!
Thanks for sharing!
Tom
Sensei Sugato .... you’re videos have simplified my swing and now I’m crushing crispy shots 9 out of 10 times.
You have saved my game. Much appreciated.
I listen to Tom
and I’ve been playing much better Golf beating up my golf buddies and I don’t know what’s going on LOL thanks Tom the swing really works!
Ive had the same experience. I found toms channel nearly 2 weeks ago and my swing speed increased by 20%.
Went golfing with a buddy yesterday that i hadnt golfed with in over a month prior and he was like wtf when i smashed a 9iron 150 up a hill lol.
I told him bro you gotta check out tom saguto!
What channel is Tom on? I though his name is Eric. We have to get that Penguin tournament going lol.
I would suggest you use a few commas and periods when writing a testimonial.
Thanks for your kind words, Barry Courville! After you've had enough fun beating up on your buddies, please do me a favor and refer them to SagutoGolf so we can level the playing field a bit LOL!
Tom
A Frosty Blaze - Thanks so much for your support and referral!!
Tom
i just love this golf samurai! he's an angel, yet having the wrath of God~ :)
Can’t wait till tomorrow! Thanks!
Tom, thanks for your simplistic way of teaching. Not overcomplicating the golf swing. I've been playing golf since 2005 never shooting better than 120. Watched this video and practiced it and yesterday I shot a 96. Thanks so much.

Love the instruction Tom! Question: What kind of hitting mat are you using and would you recommend it? Thanks and keep up the awesome work!
Personally, I have a motivo golf mat. It's pretty solid.
Thanks Sarcoven R! Mine is a Real Feel Golf Mat. (www.realfeelgolfmats.com/) I absolutely love it!
Tell them Tom Saguto sent you!
Tom
@@SagutoGolf Thanks for the reply Tom and will do! I've been practicing your instruction for about 2 months now. Been struggling to break 90 for years. Two weeks ago shot the best round of my life...an 82! Lifetime Saguto fan here sir!
I was skeptical of this method because I've always swung what everyone said was too far inside on the backswing. I tried and tried to get it more vertical and then shallow on the downswing but was very uncomfortable. Also I had a bad hip slide and thought that keeping my weight forward would make it worse. Needless to say I was wrong. I realised that with your type of backswing it's already shallowed with zero effort or thought. Tried your method today on the course and hit the longest drive I've ever hit by 30 yards which was over 300 and I'm only 5' 4". Even my miss hits went farther then my old center hits. And this method works on every type of shot. From driver to chipping and sand. Thank you!
I was wondering if this was good for driving also because I've been really struggling with hitting my driver sweet spot.
Methodic L - Sorry for taking so long to reply!
It is sad when "traditional instruction" takes us away from what our bodies were telling us is a good and healthy swing (and one that is well-supported by physics and geometry). You're definitely not alone in that (see the video on this channel about my "swing journey"), and I'm very glad to know that you've found this channel and are experiencing success with this method!!
Thanks so much for sharing!

Hey Tom.
I rediscovered this tip after buying a net and mat realising that looking over my left shoulder and not just my left bicep has helped me strike the ball and compress my irons unbelievably well. It helps a great deal to have this thought ratified. Thanks.
Enjoying golf more after watching your videos. Thank you Tom
That's what it's all about, Michael Lalli!! Thanks so much for your kind words and support!!
Tom
Big fan of your vids! They have a perfect balance of solid concepts, techniques and humor. With that said, I researched this fundamental move. It is correct.. but a detail i might suggest is sometimes it is better to raise the lead shoulder pointing about a yard ahead of the ball (like Tiger Woods does). This allows agressive golfers who really really load the lead shoulder deep, more room for the trail side to come thru on the downswing.. although technically, both ways get back on plane. happy golfing!
When I tilt so much like that, I always fear that I will not "clear enough" on the downswing, and will subsequently chunk the ball. I think the most important thing is to place a 60/40 weight distribution towards your left leg (if right handed), so that the momentum is going towards the ball. Great instruction.
Just make sure your weight is moving forward in the downswing and even some straightening out of the lead leg as your coming into impact will help create space for the club to the ball.
@@cobra7282 I agree. I'm just not supposed to think about these things while addressing the ball--the swing is fluid and these mechanics are supposed to happen without thinking about them. That is my goal--to not think about these mechanics, and just have them occur automatically. Almost there.
@@bengolfs1 For sure. Just have to drill the crap out of the mechanics on the range until it just feels natural.
bengolfs1 and Wanheda - Your back and forth dialog is spot on! I have nothing to add except that it's great to see y'all helping and supporting each other through the process!
I'm very glad to learn of your mutual success and understanding. Keep up the great work!!
Tom
Great video. Can't wait to try it. Simple is better for all of us. Thanks Tom.
@Silver Fox,
The golf swing is indeed overly complicated in particular by one part of the human body - the brain and all the swing nonsense and misguided instruction it has been fed. Garbage in, garbage out; and countless golf swings have sadly been trashed as a result. This is not saying that golf is "easy" as it most certainly is anything but. However, the perceived and overstated complexities of the swing itself can be greatly simplified to convey motions that are body-friendly and physiologically sound, and which simultaneously and effectively harness physics and geometry to produce a most satisfying and long-lasting experience. That's what my instruction style is rooted in, and I'm very glad to know that it is resonating well with you!
Cheers!
Tom
Your channel is the most underrated channel on UA-cam. You make everything so simplified, get straight to the point with full energy, genius! Huge fan of yours, I tell all my friends about your channel and will continue too! Keep doing what you’re doing Tom!
Sean Campbell - Thank you very much for your kind words and for sharing SagutoGolf with so many others!! I'm very glad to know that my channel has helped you, and I appreciate your support more than words can express!!!
Hopefully we'll lose that "underrated" label sometime in the near future as more folks stumble upon this channel and discover that this stuff really works!
Thanks again!!
Tom
That boy is real good with with the crooked stick. Needs some work on his sword technique though. 😉... but he’s got the golf down pat.
LOL M Hendrix! I'm still working on my sword work! Either I'm going to get it down or it's going to put me down!!
Thanks for your kind words!
Tom
SagutoGolf, I’m a sword guy (master instructor of HapKiDo) and (correct) sword technique is quite similar to the golf motion except golf is probably more difficult so I think you’ve got a lot of potential. ;) Keep up the great work.
MH
I love your energy man... but your gonna get some hate from other pros when their students never come back lol. Iv been using this swing tip for years and it is the sole reason I play consistent golf even with time in between rounds increasing with age.
Thanks Tom, your videos are awesome and I really enjoy the humor as well. Can't wait to put this to use on the course.
Gary Crossley - I truly appreciate your kind words and am glad to know these videos are helping you!!
Thanks for your support!
Tom
Hey Tom, love your energy and simple, yet profound tips! I'm all in.
That's great, dre park! I'm very glad to have you aboard!!
Tom
Took a while but a little sand paper and hey presto 😂
Walking around like a Penguin - UA-cam gold.
Great instructio n im now 85 should have seen vids years ago ken north.
Simplicity at its best, 8 months later and soon to be a single digit capper!
Great video Tom thank you
Good tuition as always Tom👍
Tom: what grade sandpaper do you use to get those wear marks on your irons? Just kidding 😂
SaGOATo
Nice!
Parfect!
bz: LOL! You're far too kind!!
Tom
I watch this tip every day, basically! Awesome! Thanks, Tom!
Glad it works for you, Greg!
By the way, I understand if you're a creature of habit, but I do have a bunch of other videos if you'd like to mix it up every once in awhile!! 😆😆😆
Thanks for your support!!
Tom
Tom, you absolute legend! Incredible tip, just smashed around 100 consistent shots across 5i-PW! Also found by combining this with changing stance right/left and opening/closing club face accordingly I can easily control shot shape finally! Was always a bit of a hash before until I watched this video.. thanks again! 👊🏼
If you practice HARD you’ll have the same swing as Kevin Chappell and Charley Hoffman
Charley Hoffman is one of my swing models, Denis - in fact, I have a video featuring his swing in my online school!! He's got a very simple, repeatable, powerful move!
Thanks!
Tom
The Result is = you get the same SWING as Kevin Chappell and Charley Hoffman
Brilliant , cant wait to try it out .
This should be a great episode!
It happens when you never clean your clubs 😂
I'm writing you to thank you for this video. In my opinion you have the best conveyance of the process of an iron swing on UA-cam ! You tell us what your going to tell us , you tell us and then you summarize it by telling us what you told us masterfully. your video is not a hodge- podge of tangents , its straight to the point in KISS principle ! in one video you have removed my heal strikes, my over-rotations , my wayward arms chasing the ball and my racking stance ! I took your tutorial to the driving range and for the first time was able to hit my PW 120 yards, my 4 iron 200 yards and all in between irons to distances not seen before ! Golfers if your to watch one video that has a huge impact on your swing and its easy to implement THIS VIDEO WOULD BE IT !! thank you Tom for the entertaining golf education I am a believer Cheers!!!

Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the great work!!

This video was extremely helpful. I saved it from awhile ago. Came back to it at just the right time. 🙏
I'm glad this episode has been helpful to you, Kevin. Always keep it handy - after all, it was The King's favorite!!

Tom, I found this video 4 days ago having never seen your work before and I'm a golf instruction junkie. First thought after 10 seconds was this guy is crazy but then I thought to myself I've learned some good info from George Gankas who is totally out in left field so I kept watching because you mentioned Arnold Palmer. It didn't take long to realize you were simply not afraid to "push the envelope" because of your passion. It made me listen. Thank you and Thank God that I did!! I've tried ideas from hundreds of pros and instructors looking for something that would click since I didn't start golfing until I was 23. It's been 30 years of madness, getting down to a 2 hdcp and going back up to 10. I've worked with Jimmy Ballard, Bradley Hughes, Kent Chase (who was taught by Wild Bill Mehlhorn) and several other well regarded teaching pros. NO ONE ever suggested to point the left shoulder at the ball and I'm embarrassed to have never picked up on this gem of a tip from Mr. Palmer. Using swing thoughts from Bradley Hughes, combined with the shoulder at the ball and extra pressure on the lead foot at the top of the backswing ... I'm feeling like the 10 hdcp might become 0 within the next month. CRISPY!! Keep pushing the boundaries using "old school" thoughts and you'll soon be joining Bradley Hughes, George Gankas, and Lucas Wald in the upper tier of instruction This is amazing considering your age. Don't underestimate yourself! Well done and congratulations from Calgary, Canada.

Hi Ron,
I am truly humbled by your far-too-kind words!! That is some very rare air shared by those great names in golf instruction that you mentioned, and to even be thought of anywhere near that realm is beyond my ability to process....
I'm very glad to know that you didn't "quit me" after those first 10 seconds of madness, and I am thrilled to learn of the positive results you experienced with the tips you mentioned. Mr. Palmer offered some great kernels of swing knowledge, though somehow - perhaps due to his swashbuckling and seemingly non-technical style - these flew under the radar to some extent. In fact I just recently posted an episode with more of his favorites. Here's a link if you care to view it: ua-cam.com/video/wOHtJBDm_rs/v-deo.html.
Self-proclaimed "golf instruction junkie" that you are, I hope you'll pay more visits to my channel in the future and - if you've not yet done so - perhaps even consider subscribing.
Thanks again, Ron, and keep it CRISPY!!
Cheers!
Tom
PS: I watched some of Justin Johnson's guitar videos - that's some sweet playing!! Thanks for sharing!

Great tip 🏌️♂️⛳️
One of the best golf videos I've watched, excellent tips and brilliant humor. golf doesn't have to be complicated. I arrived at this swing understanding a few weeks before seeing this video and its made a huge difference. ill be saving this video as a reminder as I've previously drifted back into those old bad habits in the past. Great job!
Thanks!! I'm glad this great tip from The King reinforced your recent discovery!!
Nice job figuring this out on your own!!
TS
Awesome lesson Tom! You rock!!!
Thanks John - glad you enjoyed it!!
Tom
You make golf fun, Tom. Arnie and Ben both taught same swing move - L. shoulder pointed to ball. Glad you are, too!
Arnold was my Hero!!! Love your teaching method, simple and very entertaining 🏌️

Tom
You're the best! Thanks dude. Keep on shining ✨... one love from Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks - I truly appreciate your kind words!!
Tom
Thank you.
Tom, your golf instruction is like spot on and easy to follow, I practice these tips in my t.v/computer room while watching your video and they all make sense, and best of all they are so simple and easy to follow, I just think of that old high school compass that we used in geometry to make that circle and point the right shoulder at the ball, no swing manipulation thoughts, keep it up.
Dave, that's awesome! Glad you could simplify your swing and make it easier to repeat. Cant wait to see how this works on the course
I have always fought a push right shot. Even when struck well. NOW, I know why! I had a level shoulder turn. My swing was more horizontal than vertical. Rotating caused me to cut across it. Thank you Tom!
So good Tom. It’s really simplified my swing and given me better ball striking!
That's great, Mike S!!
I appreciate your kind words and support!!
Tom
Great teaching style and funny with it. Total genius. Keep up the good work. You deserve success.
I truly appreciate your very kind words and your support, Richard!!
Thanks!
Tom
This is absolutely one of the best tips ever for golfers of every ability. Watch tour pros in slow motion and you'll see they are doing EXACTLY this ( to varying degrees). Great job, Tom!
Thanks Butch! Yes - this is a timeless tip from The King that automatically builds in the tilting, turning, and extending components in one simple thought!
Tom
Tom, you are amazing with your effective teaching method, you fire me up every time I watch videos.
I sincerely appreciate your kind words, Sam, and I'm very glad to know that you are enjoying my instruction and teaching style!!
Tom
Hi Tom, I just found this video last night. Whenever I find a tip on You Tube I go down to the practice range and try it out. Some of them worked, for a while, others didn't. When I woke up this morning, I went to try out this pointing the shoulder at the ball idea. Wow! Incredible! I hit around 50 balls and only had 4 mishits! Most of the shots, dead straight or with a slight draw. I can't wait to play 18 holes tomorrow and try this out. I've played for around 50 years since age 12 and this is the best tip I've come across. Thank you so much.
Phil Snelman - I must say that I am truly blown away that you can take a random tip off of UA-cam - where there are like 5 million tips, many of which totally contradict each other - take it to the range, see if it works, and if not completely delete it from muscle memory and move on to the next one! Wow!! I'd be an absolute pretzel if I tried that!
Anyway, I'm glad to know that this tip worked well for you and I look forward to learning how it played out on the course!

2 years since I watched this… remembered it my 3rd time on the range this year. Everything just clicked. Long, straight, consistent.

Hey Tom - I have struggled with casting for my entire life and no one has been able to teach me the fundamentals so clearly that when I apply your tips, I find such crispy contact. I am going to keep watching and applying. I will be retiring at the end of June and plan to join your school. Thanks for making me want to golf again.
I'm very glad to know that my instruction is resonating well with you, Bill!
Congratulations on your upcoming retirement, and I look forward to seeing you in the online school!!
