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.

I like what he says… but the delivery of this information is so refreshing. Golf videos are supposed to be boring and serious but that’s not Tom

Tom
Tom- Thank you for this excellent video! I’m learning so much from you, and I appreciate your great attitude. My brother, Chris, has joined your school and I’m going to be doing the same thing. I also love and appreciate that you kept your McChunker in this video. It’s very stress relieving to see that even you chunk it every once in a while. Now if the rest of us could only reduce our current chunk factor of 73.25% to less than 10% we’d be ecstatic. 😂 On that note, I watched your video about keeping the lead arm straight and reducing the extent of the backswing and I found it incredibly helpful. I always thought I had to take the clubs back much further, but you’re right, I’m hitting the ball almost as far, and sometimes further by keeping the backswing simple and not going back too far.😊
Thanks for the precision of your chunk factor research data, Matt..... 😆😆
The key here is get to - but not go beyond - your body's natural stopping point in the backswing where the tilting, turning, and extending motions are complete, the lead arm has crossed the chest 45 degrees, and the wrists are properly set (preferably with a flat or slightly bowed lead wrist). This is the point where if we were to try to go any further any or all of the following will occur:
1) the lead arm will bend and/or lift
2) the wrists will break down
3) the lead knee will kick inward towards the trail side
4) the lead shoulder will level out and lose its orientation towards the ball
5) weight will shift into the trail side and bring the low point back with it, resulting in inconsistent contact and unpredictable ball flight.
6) you'll "chicken wing" and/or flip through impact
7) pain, discomfort, and/or possible injury
We don't need to try to get to "parallel" with this swing, and fighting your body in an attempt to do so will result in some combination of the above issues. If you execute this swing properly you will have created width and plenty of distance for that club to travel by taking it in deep, and that will enable you to harness the tremendous power source known as "angular momentum".
I'm glad to know that your brother is enrolled in the school and I look forward to seeing you there very soon as well!
Embrace the challenge that is this greatest of games and have fun out there!!

@@SagutoGolf Wow Tom. Thanks for your thorough and thoughtful reply. That says a lot about you. I’m glad you’ve found something in your life that you truly enjoy, and that you’ve figured out a way to make a living doing it while being yourself and having a good thing time. Believe it or not, I’ve figured how to do the same thing as a lawyer and now a judge; but that’s a story for another time. For now, many thanks for your guidance. There’s about a gazillion people out there giving golf advice (more research results 😂), but very few have that “everyman” (and woman) touch you bring to the table. Everything you say makes perfect sense and I’m going out again today to keep incorporating and implementing these concepts. Once again, many thanks for the detailed response. Long live the crispy KFC!! 😊
The most valuable tip of them all. Thank you Sir
My pleasure, @JimiRay! (BTW, looks like you've done a little binge watching recently?...😎)
You weren't lying Tom. When this swing finally clicked with me it truly felt like the shaft is waist high and completely behind me the whole time lol. The results are incredible though. Straight ball flight or slight draw and almost effortless power from the compression.
Sweet buckets of crispiness, Ryan! Keep up the great work.
Really glad I found your channel. I appreciate the way you explain certain concepts. It's extremely easy to follow.
Thank you, I'll be looking forward to seeing you more on my channel!
I love the lumberjack analogy... and the improvised dunce cap.
This is be far my favorite Saguto video yet. The lesson is spot on, but the Eastwood and Good Fellas samples are superb and perfectly appropriate. Rock on Icon ✌️❤️🤘
Thank you JCM, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Maybe I'll add some more of those samples in the future
I just watched Goodfellas the other day. Supertroopers clips would be funny, too. "Shenanigans " "No buts, meow! Meow, what's so dang funny?" Do I look like a cat to you?" "I'm freaking out, man!" "Candy bars!" Lmao! Love it!
You’re half nuts but you’ve helped my golf game tremendously. Thanks Tom!
Just half nuts, Ray??? 🙄 Dang - I've got to step up my game!!...........😆
I'm very glad to know that my instruction is resonating well with you. Keep up the great work!!
TS
Tom, of all of the golf instruction videos I have watched I find your simplified techniques and teaching methods to be the most helpful and productive because they produce the quickest results. Your common sense approach to teaching works great. I bought a net and a mat at the beginning of February. I and my twelve year old grandson have been implementing your swing instructions into our practice sessions. I started out our practice sessions with the new net and mat by videoing our swings in slow motion. We would watch your videos before beginning our practices. Within days we both saw dramatic and positive results in our swings. During our practice sessions my grandson and I would be sure to adhere to what Tom Saguto says about the golf swing.
We both are very excited for the golf season to get here, (in upstate, NY) so that we can take our new and improved swings to the golf course.
That's awesome and thank you so much for the kind words! I'm so happy for you and your grandson to be able to tag-team these lessons together. Keep it crispy and tell your grandson that I say hello!
Tom
You’re awesome you break it down to the most simplest instructions. Thank you
Thank you L Brito, I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Tnx Tom great tip!!!
I'm glad this one resonated well with you, Jincy. I hope your game is improving through all this binge watching!!
Great information 🏌️♂️⛳️
No matter what golf swing ad comes up before or after Tom Saguto videos I just hit “Skip” 😂. Saguto Golf is all I need for my golf swing.
I admire your dedication and commitment to SagutoGolf!
I tried out your technique after years of trying others and it was amazing! I couldn’t be happier! Thank you! I was greening it from 185+ easily . Irons are my worst pet of the game and it just became my strongest! Thank you again!
That's fantastic, Juan!! Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the great work!!
Tom
Great tip .... looks so easy when you do it.
Thank you Adam! It is SIMPLE but not always easy.
Love your Videos. May play tomorrow! Been hitting the ball awesome on the range!
Thank you Jeffrey, keep it crispy!
I love this guy
Thank you! 👍😎
Love the slow-mo and pause in this one...I really think it helps to see what is occurring in the swing...it happens so fast and I can't always see what you or others are referring to. Great job! I also think this is why most golfers that I have been around, give the craziest advice or analysis of someone swing when they hit a bad shot. They saw something and blame it rather than what caused what they saw.
Also wanted to add that I bought the stack and tilt videos way back when they came out. It really helped my game. I am so glad I found you on you tube to help me understand the swing better. I recommend your channel and website to everyone who is serious about wanting to play better and have more fun! Take care Tom!
Thanks Shawn - I truly appreciate your kind words and support, and I'm very glad to know that my instruction has helped clarify Stack and Tilt for you!
Keep up the great work and have fun out there!!
Tom
Hi Tom - I joined the program a few days ago after great results just from following the concepts your UA-cam channel... from weak over the top inconsistency to crispy draws. Highly recommend and love your energy!
Awesome, I'm so glad you're enjoying the program! Thank you for sharing your improvement with me - keep it crispy KFC.
Tom
Great video Tom our snow finally melted can't wait to get out!
Awesome, Fred, have fun!
I've looked at a lot of golf instructers on UA-cam and I still can't, but also can, believe that you're the best one I've found lol.
Danny Maude is also good for anyone else looking out there
Try Zen Golf Mechanics - Danny Fraud is trying to copy his stuff but Marcus Bell is a genius with years of research in to bio mechanics
Awesome DJ, thanks for recommending me to others!
@@crispyduck1706 Zen Golf. Amazing. Plus Danny is not obnoxious like this guy
@@bmatt772727272 actually I find him quite entertaining and quirky and he certainly knows his stuff. Informative and entertaining.
@@crispyduck1706 I actually combine Tom's concepts with those of Zen Golf and Shawn Clement.
Tom has gifted us with a method to simplify the swing and remove some variables to hit consistent, crispy shots.
Zen has taught me to use the ground better in my swing
Shawn has been instrumental on teaching me the importance of picking an intermediate point and focusing on where I want the ball to go rather than hitting at the ball.
Another good one Tom, informative and funny, a winning combination :)
Thank you Paul!
Great video Tom! Quick question...is it better to be slotted in the backswing already (club in the middle of your bicep) and simply swing into the slot, or is there a benefit to having the club further up by the shoulder then use this shallowing method? Thanks!
Thank you for this swing tip - Wow. I found that my slots were way inconsistent with this. The GOAT video.
Awesome, I'm glad it really helped you improve! Stay Crispy KFC
good golf thought provoking
Amazing instruction video. I nailed my Wilson Staff Model blades like never before. I also gained considerable distance by drawing the ball for the first time 😍😎
Fantastic! I'm glad to know that this lesson resonated well with you!! Great job incorporating it into your swing!!
Tom
Great video Tom. I have an amateur question. In your video, you have the downswing path stick pointing to the right. If the shaft follow the downswing path stick during downswing, wouldn't the ball also go to the right if the club face is square with the shaft? I guess maybe you need to coordinate the hip rotation so that the shaft goes from the club path to the target path before impact? Would be nice if we can see the "side view" angle also.
Great visual!
Thank you Clay!
Good swing tip thanks
Thank you!
Thanks Tom Eastwood ... you have the greatest tips and have helped my game be even more enjoyable
LOL! I appreciate your kind words and I'm very glad to know that you are having fun out there on the course. *_THAT_* is what it's really all about!!
Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the great work!!
-Clint Saguto 😎
@@SagutoGolf as we all know it's much more enjoyable when we are playing good and your tips can help anyone improve their game
Thanks friend, excellent your tips, the wedge and this one have helped me a lot, to understand many things and above all, when I go out to the field. I am no longer guessing when I make a bad shot, which helps me not to shoot more holes, in a row, very grateful, for what you do, greetings Caracas, Venezuela
Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad that this tip is helping you to be more consistent.
Hi Tom, love your videos! Been watching A TON lately to try to help my out to in swing path/slice. The swing you take at 4:30 in this video looks identical to my swing. I know you have a ton of videos but I was wondering if you had any other specific ones that come to mind that target this same “issue” with the golf swing. Appreciate you and all your videos!
I'm glad you are enjoying my content, Dylan!!
I've got so many lesson videos that address the causes and fixes of a steep, over-the-top downswing since that is the issue that plagues the vast majority of amateur golfers. Here are a couple of recent episodes that may help you:
- ua-cam.com/video/7KZ7eREvPIY/v-deo.html
- ua-cam.com/video/GQI6SoL1AUg/v-deo.html
Really, though, the online school is the best place to learn this swing properly and sequentially in a comprehensive, structured environment. 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.

Let's get you on the correct path towards consistently crispy ball striking bliss!!
Tom
Saguto...the man. i love your alignment system...one for the target and two for the club and hand position for take back. I always that club path inside the target path was always resulted in the flip inside move but as long as arms are close to torso and hand is front of you...its all good..correct? you are the man...thank you thank you.
You got that right , Joe, thanks for watching! Keep the club traveling inward and arms straight.
Awesome video
Thanks Jay - I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
Tom
I'm here now just loving the comments. All these people benefiting from your passion bro.
Best channel on UA-cam hands down!!!
I'm so ready for the season!!
Thanks Johnny! Can't wait for the season to really get deep-fried crispy
Thank you so much Tom to help me ♥️♥️♥️ and i love your car 😁😁
Always unscripted and oftentimes unedited. But hey - my car alarm provided an opportunity to throw in one of my favorite scenes from a great movie!! 😆
Glad you enjoyed the lesson!

BEST TIPS
Thank you!
Make your life easier just listen to Tom and your golf game will improve in days. Thanks Tom just got back from Myrtle Beach played Prestwick , Wacheshaw East and Diamondback had an amazing trip great rounds of golf owe a lot to you if I never found your channel I would still be wacking away confused on how players hit the same spot every time.
Thank you so much Jason, that sounds like tons of fun! Keep up the great work and I appreciate you sharing my channel with other golfers who need help.
Tom absolutely love your channel .... could you show us how to hit a controlled fade with your swing? love hitting the draw but sometimes a shot requires a fade .....thanks for such a great channel
Hey Mando, thanks so much for the kind words! You might find this video helpful in understanding fade vs draw golf swing dynamics - ua-cam.com/video/NthJA6TTZpo/v-deo.html
I like the whole Logan “wolverine “ look ... it’s great 👍 . Just like this tip on slotting the club .
Greet job Tom .
Thank you Richard!
Logan has blades. 👍⛳🏌️♂️
Tom,
As always, another great & funny video. I love the simplicity that you coach. I especially found the alignment stick drill a very useful tip as well as positioning of the club clubhead in the downswing.
Car alarm side note - I have more than once set my car alarm off, by having my key fob in my front pocket while bending over to pick something up. Arrrrg 😯
Thank you Steven, I appreciate the kind words and I'm glad that you found that drill to be useful! I think the car alarm was trying to alert me that I shouldn't ever have a steep downswing again.
@@SagutoGolf ok, that's funny.
hey tom, love your channel. It definitely has helped my game. I have a question hoping you see this one. Do you bow your wrist through impact knuckles down? I just started playing around with it and I'm making way better contact with the ball! That would be a great video if that is in the stack and tilt system. Thanks for the awesome content!
Hey Lawrence, thanks for the kind words! The shaft leans slightly more forward at impact when compared to address but I don't consciously try to go knuckles down -that requires some side bending of the wrists and, if I do that, my contact point and path will change.
Funniest guy on UA-cam. Have ever thought about doing stand up haha
mate that cracked me up i just visioned the golf course i play at and almost 80% of players walking around with golf ball buckets on there heads saying " why do we have to wear these " cheers for the time and effort you put into these vids clap clap clap
HAHAHA Scott, that's great. Sharing that vision has me lol'ing in my chair. Thank you for watching and sharing!
Great lesson pro!!!
Thank you Gary, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
@@SagutoGolf I’ve been following you for a long time!!! I need u to see my swing!! I’m 67, had stroke two years ago !! U r the best!!
Hi Tom greetings from Australia. I just wanted to say thanks for such an amazing video. I joined your Saguto.golf site and haven’t looked back since. This video in particular really solidified it for me. I have always had a constant fade and struggled to draw my irons, woods and driver. But using the alignment stick and using my right arm my swing plane has improved instantly. I hit 200 balls today and other than 5 straight shots every one of them had a baby draw. I was blown away. I’m a big advocate of your stack and tilt method. I’ve literally never hit the ball crisper or better. Love watching your great videos. Thanks and great work. Ps great website also.. Steve
I sincerely appreciate your very kind words, Steve, and I am very glad to learn of the success you are experiencing through S&T and my instruction!! Based on your comment it seems to me that you are progressing very nicely in taking ownership of your swing. Well done!!
Thanks again for your testimonial and support, keep up the great work, and have fun out there!!
Cheers,
Tom
PS: I've heard from several golfers Down Under who are enjoying their respective SagutoGolf experiences. Perhaps you'll run into one or more of them on the course one of these days. After all, global domination is the mission here....😂
I love it!
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Great video. The best mix of Golf and Scorsese since the FBI plane landing on the fairway in Casino...
Thank you Matthew! "Funny how?"
Great lesson, Tom! Perfect timing, too. Old habits attacked me from the bushes. I'm glad you didn't edit out certain things, ie: miss hits, car alarms, etc. with your UA-cam tips. It shows you're human and us humans can relate. Now, DeChambeau and Westwood this past weekend, they fell apart where it really counted. A top 3 wood and a banana ball that kept going. (Huh! They are human, too.) Both pushing top of the Leader board. Congrats to JT! 👍⛳🏌️♂️

CALLED IN THE SLOT GOOD STUFF TOM
That's it Carmine!
Great video,,,could you hit a power fade like that ,with the same swing path ? ,,,Is it as simple as opening the club face ? Thx Tom
Yes, since the power fade is hit with an in-to-out path. Check out this video - ua-cam.com/video/UnOMjaDl3fE/v-deo.html
Great video :)
Thank you Paul!
Great stuff Tom.
What microphone are you using? I'm looking for something to go to my phone for my new golf channel
Awesome, I use the RODE Wireless Go
Thank you for your instruction. Question, how do you know what grip size and type to use?
Thank you for watching Patrick! I usually go to a site like Golf Pride and look at their grip fitting guide. It's pretty intuitive and easy to use.
@@SagutoGolf Thanks , for the information and your time to enthusiastically show how to play golf with simple and body friendly swing,look forward to seeing your next video.
Different topic here but I tried the stack and tilt method on the range and during one round of golf. It feels a bit awkward but I'll tell you what, I think your on to something. I've seen instant consistency when it came to striking the irons. And they went pretty straight too
That's great, @B Man! And yes - it will feel awkward at first, especially if you are transitioning from some version of a "shift and lift" type of swing.

Tom, I’m a decent golfer. Not great. Not bad. 12.7 index. The last 2 years I’ve lost distance and blamed it on my flexibility.
Until I saw this. This is the way I used to hit the ball. After a video review today , I’m no longer in that position.
Hit just 4 balls at the end of my round on the range (I saw this video in my car as I was about to leave). Flushed all 4 and penetrating flight.
I effing love you.
Sweet sauce - glad you didn't leave the range so soon! It looks like that index is gonna be coming down fast. You can't hangout at 12 for long when you're in the $$$ position in the downswing. Keep up the great work!
@@SagutoGolf I’m also trying the weight forward you recently had. Putting both together tomorrow and we will see what happens.
Mr Crispy, this is a very
Buttery move💥
I do the Crispy jokes round here please
@@crispyduck1706 the tighter you grip it the faster you lose it.

TS
Awesome stuff Tom. I tired it on the range today and I hit them solid and crispy like KFC! I love this in-to-out swing and hit a push draw, but how do you hit a fade ? Thanks Tom
Glad you were feeling crispy shots Eddie! You need to change your swing path from in/out to out/in to hit a fade. Check out this video - ua-cam.com/video/NthJA6TTZpo/v-deo.html
I'm 65 and a 40 years OTT swinger. It was killing my lower back. Saw Toms video about 4 months ago. I decided to go stack and tilt. It has been a major struggle. However I set up in my basement and practiced HARD all winter. I went out to the course Wednesday and shot 80. I haven't shot 80 in 20 years. It works and if done correctly is easy on your back.
Good to hear! How was your distance? Have you gained or lost with Stack and Tilt? (I'm 67 and seem to be losing the little I had, so am making the same winter change..haven't had a chance to play yet..)
@@brooksidetownhouse6872 My long clubs are hit or miss. I find it hard to get my backswing started with my 3h and up. However Wednesday I was busting my 3 wood about 215 a couple 230. I was ready to quit about 6 weeks ago. Then things got better as I paid more attention to my set up. Setting up properly is SO important with this swing. Every detail is important. I used to grip and rip. You can't do that with stack and tilt. I'm just now getting confidence and I probably have hit 200 balls a day on some days. Alot of that was wasted practice because I wasn't paying attention to the details. I'm convinced now this is a solid method. Check out Hogan's book 5 fundamentals. Sometimes a different way of explain will make things click. It helped me, along with Toms excellent vids.
@@gryphon5591 Thanks! I too like the Hogan book and actually learned to play with it..hope you continue the progress..am looking forward to similar good things! Cheers.
Awesome, and congratulations on your low round! Your hard work is paying dividends :D
Ok...so this may sound like a commercial for SagutoGolf but this guy is absolutely lights out on simplifying the golf swing and breaking it down to fix bad habits and debunking age-old myths about the golf swing. I joined his on-line school ~ 3 weeks ago and have been using his techniques tips at the range and it absolutely works! I’m already hitting it extra crispy with far less effort than before. Trust me if you are a mid-high handicapper like myself who has struggled forever with consistency in your swing, this guy can help you fix it! It will be the best $100 you ever spent! No brainer!
I truly appreciate your kind words and support, Kip, and I am thrilled about your crispy progress in the online school!!
Here's a fun fact: A recent survey of SagutoGolf online school members garnered a statistically significant return of 182 responses with the following outcome: Upon enrolling in the online school, the average 18-hole score among all respondents was 92. Since being in the school these same students now report an average 18-hole score of 82. That’s a full 10-stroke improvement - along with the gratification and joy that goes with it! At just $10 US/month or $99 US/year, it kinda makes you wonder what folks could possibly be waiting for...
Thanks for sharing your success, and stay crispy my friend!!
Tom
Dude I would kill to consistently shoot in the 80s much less low 80s! Make it so! 🙏
Great tip, the shaft needs to mirror the right forearm just like in your demonstration! Oh and great job with the Goodfellas clip.
Awesome, Coach, I'm glad you liked it - yes, right thru the right forearm is preferred!
You hit the turf so hard,it set off the car alarm.Lumberjack!
HAHAHA that's why the camera shook for a second....
This woman is in love with Saguto golf tips ! Great sense of humor, but nothing funny about how much better I'm hitting the ball after watching ! 😁❤
SideburnSaguto 😎
What helped was pointing the end of the grip at the ball for as long as possible
Yep - That's definitely a good one, especially for golfers who have a tendency to "hit at" the ball.
TS
Tom I'm having an issue with a new driver, it's a stiff flex shaft (ping) just like my old one but for some reason it only goes straight if I swing gently and hit around 240 yards, I have always had a neutral grip and it's no problem with any other club but with this driver as soon as I swing hard I get a push slice, infact I can hit it dead straight but I have to strengthen my grip so much that if I return to neutral at address the clubface is nearly 45° closed ??? It's as if the shaft is twisting open on the downswing and without that super strong grip I can't stop it happening, I never had this before wirh the other driver. Any thoughts? I was really struggling to get it down to the ball also, it's got me a bit rattled, (with the super strong grip they were dead straight with no pull which makes me think it's maybe not a path issue ) the grip does feel a little thinner though could it be that? I'm not ruling out I was swinging like a spud but I've never experienced anything like this.
Hey Daz, it could be many different reasons but one of the most common when trying to swing too hard or hit it harder is that you end up being steep into impact. You can still hit a push-slice that way - you may be steep and still swinging in-to-out OR you could be swinging fine and hitting huge pushes because your path is too much in-to-out. It's tough to tell without seeing your swing. Evaluate: push slice - face open at impact with a face to path number that is out-to-in.
45 degree clubface closed is rather severe though, I suspect that is swing related. Face is too open.
If you'd like me to take a look, we can pinpoint the exact issue. I am available to assist with swing video analysis and/or online lessons. You can learn more about these various options here: app.v1sports.com/Saguto-Golf.
My swing is still too vertical and choppy--this is good advice, Thanks Tom!
Awesome, I'm glad you're eliminating your chopping ways! Thank you!
Love your presentation! Funny and true with a taste of ridicule. Everyone can use a little ridicule! 👍
Could the path of the club affect if you strike the ground at all? Feel like sometimes even with my chest pointed to the balls and shoulders going down to the ball I don’t strike the ground. Like I’m not coming in steep enough and the club face swipes above the ground
If you err on the side of being too shallow it can definitely affect your ability to find the ground.
Stumbled upon your channel last year and knew I recognized the course/driving range. Then realized you’re right across the street from our beach house! Any chance you offer in person lessons?
Hey Cam, yes, I do offer in person lessons. Feel free to reach out to me at lessons@saguto.golf
What do you suggest when you start hitting pushes and hooks?
It sounds like your club path is too much in-to-out (doing too much of the move I want you to do in the video). I'd suggest doing a drill like this one - saguto.golf/courses/1175315/lectures/25244068
I never created a 'dollar bill' divot in 40 years...until I tilted. Now I try to touch my right knee with my left hand swinging the club back. I can take a divot every time now. THANKS! Just watched Lee Westwood and he stacks and tilts!
Forgive my asking but what benefit does touching your right knee with your left hand provide (or the feel as such)?
Genuine question btw! Does it keep the clubhead outside the hands, or some other reason?
Cheers
Andrew
Ps. Yes, I certainly noticed how Westie really got his lead shoulder down to the ball in his backswing..
@@andrewferguson1013 I pretend like I'm trying to touch my right knee....it make me keep my left shoulder down. I'd like to see Westwood win tomorrow!
Awesome, Joe, I'm glad you discovered your $1 bill secret (it's really worth 1 million bucks though :D )!
i keep looking at your right wrist and how much its flexed. all im working on right now is the left shoulder down and the right wrist flex.
Sounds like a great recipe for clean contact, keep the right wrist wedge!
How are you not on the pga tour lol 😂 another great video
LOL because it's way more fun helping everyday golfers play better!
How do i set up the shaft
From the face-on view the shaft would be an extension of your lead arm, with the hands positioned even with this inside of the lead arm. Ball position varies from mid-stance for the short irons and incrementally notching forward as the clubs get longer, the farthest forward being the driver when the ball is positioned even with the inside of the lead heel. Hand position remains constant throughout the bag. Of course, these are stock ball positions and this system affords ample leeway for individual preferences.

I have a question, when I lead with the butt of the club and turn it feels like my hands "flip over" after contact point. Like a the club whips thru. Is that the feeling I'm suppose to have? And I'm assuming this same concept applies to the driver as well?
You do want that "crack the whip" feel, but it should not include any flipping of the hands through the zone. Here are some channel lessons related to this:

- ua-cam.com/video/SunCR5uJ_ao/v-deo.html
- ua-cam.com/video/zw7Rzstq4gY/v-deo.html
Yes - it’s essentially the same swing with every club; just some minor setup differences and naturally occurring shaft plane changes as we graduate up in club length from short irons to woods. Here's a recent episode on this topic: ua-cam.com/video/o0xscMyN3v8/v-deo.html

@@SagutoGolf thanks man. Gonna try it at the range before I play my dad Thursday. Everyone talks about that lag but your the only one that actually showed me the feeling and how to do that. Been chopping wood too long. Also I feel like your humor is overlooked. I really enjoy watching your videos
I'm glad you're enjoying the content!
With regard to lag, in an effort to help you with this, you may wish to give some serious consideration to the LagShot clubs that you may have seen me speak about and demonstrate. I think these are awesome training aids for resolving a host of downswing sins, particularly because you can hit balls with them and receive instant feedback. Simply incorporate the LagShot into your practice routine and it will greatly assist you in grooving the proper motions and downswing path. Here is a link to the LagShot website - lagshotgolf.com?ref:sagutogolf - and if you do end up deciding to purchase be sure to enter the code SAGUTOGOLF at checkout for 15% off.

When you did the voice I thought it was Christian Bale’s Batman lol
Yep awesome, but hard. I'm still Flippin a bit but man when I don't BIG improvements.
Keep working on it, Leonard!
Also, if you haven't already seen it, this episode pairs nicely with what you are trying to ingrain: ua-cam.com/video/Fe2kQ44azJ4/v-deo.html

hence the single plane golf swing? Or David Duval esq.
Actually I teach the Stack and Tilt method, a golf swing system based on data from the best golf ball strikers and which is rooted in these three fundamentals exemplified by these players: 1. Hit the ground in the same spot every time (consistently crispy contact) 2. Have enough power to play the golf course well (distance) 3. Be able to have a predictable curve (accuracy). A player MUST be able to do these three non-negotiables in order to truly be good at golf, and Stack and Tilt provides a road map for accomplishing them incredibly well in a low-maintenance and body-friendly manner.

You’ll be swearing at your car after Tom 😁 Thanks again for a fabulous Crispy training day 😉
LOL I love my car too much to do that. Thanks for watching Andrew!
Screw golf, I want your hair haha thanks for another great video!!
Thanks Eddie, just keep watering it and it will grow!
@@SagutoGolf 😂😂👍🏻
In the words of Phil Collins.....
Inside out
Ooh you got me inside out
Oh inside out
Oh inside out
i see your true colors shining thru.
man your are adictive, every time i watch one of your vedios i want to grab a stick, im 60 years old now, with past back problems but with your style it has taken the pressure of my back where i dont have to load up anymore , thanks for caring for old guys like me
My pleasure, Randy!! I'm very glad to know that the body-friendly aspects of this swing are resonating well with you. Now get out there and enjoy some pain-free fun on the course!!
Thanks for your kind words and support!
Tom
If you wanted to power fade would you still be keeping the club behind you like this
Yes, check out my video on power fade and you'll find it to be a similar path.
What my swing amuses you? So I’m funny looking? What, like a clown, I’m ha ha funny? Lol. Another great tip Tommy Two Times. You made me an offer I can’t refuse. Seriously, thank you, I’m getting better from your lessons . Godfather of golf Tommy Stromboli Saguto
Hahaha Danny, this is a FANTASTIC comment. Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the tip - TRY THE VEAL, it's fantastic!
@@SagutoGolf ha ha. Paulie likes to Slice the garlic real thin so it dissolves in the olive oil!! Slice the garlic not the golf ball!!
Please make a video on pushing the ball. I have found that my hands lag behind and I’m hitting inside out. So I tend to push and over think my hands having the “flick”. Please help.
Hi John, it looks like you're doing too much of the move I want you to do in this video. Try this one, it will really fix your pushes and hooks - saguto.golf/courses/1175315/lectures/25244068
2.19 to 2.30 is true gold people, this is a drill for life of swinging correctly
Thank you!
Tom your golf tips are amazing...now let me give you a tip I learned from back in my younger days as a valet, if you want to extend the range of your key fob hold it directly under your chin while locking/unlocking or trying to turn off the alarm while on the range!!! Your head acts like an antenna. Also never trust a 20 something year old valet with your rear wheel drive sports car as we had a special lot behind the building where we’d hold some serious donut sessions 😜
Thank you so much! I'll have to keep that valet tip in mind LOL. Also, NO SPORTS CARS and valet for me :P
No sports car for me either, but with your tips I’ll be making so much money off my buddies I’ll have that Lambo in no time 🙄
Aka the Ben Hogan magic elbow. Been playing good and bad alternately for 35 years now. Tried this on the range today, didn’t miss a shot with a 7 iron the whole time. Wtf took me so long 😂
Yep - This pairs nicely with the "Magic Elbow" episode. I'm glad it worked so well for you!!
Great job incorporating this into your swing so quickly!!
Tom
@@SagutoGolf thanks for responding Tom. I dig your channel. When I was your age I played golf everyday and got to be really good. I didn’t have the wisdom nor the understanding of the mechanics that you seem to possess. I went to the range again and had mixed results. When I get that elbow on the right path in my upswing, the shot is effortless. I’m trying to figure out how to get that feeling on how to get it into the right position every time. Anyways great tips and a new subscriber. Keep on trucking son
Actually if I could get my second shot golfer to play on the first shot I'd be on TV😜
The mindset of the second shot is ALWAYS so much more free and un-caring when compared to that first shot LOL
Yeah, no shit. Sooooo true.
Here's to NOT being a "golf criminal" and being chucked out by the greenskeepers! Love that word! Hahahahaha!
LOL Mark, you never know when the SUPER is watching
