    Since I followed your intructions, I've made many of my friends surprised. Now I hit the ball confidently and know for sure that there will never be a hook or a slice. Thanks a lot.

    I love the way you hit the ball at 3:47. I was intentionally looking for the right shoulder/arm/elbow tuck and I did see it. I hit a few balls using this technique yesterday, and it was like effortless power. I hit 5 out of 6 shots with a 7 iron perfectly. I'm in the process of learning the real golf swing, which I never learned when I was younger. And it feels REALLY good to hit the ball right!

    This is the best golf video that I have ever watched. The golf glove in the armpit is awesome. I went to the driving range, grabbed six balls and hit 3 of them with the glove in the armpit. It made a HUGE difference. It created muscle memory. For my next range session, I used that tip less and less....however, when I felt like my swing regressed, I went back to the glove in the armpit and got that "feel" back again of tucking in.
    And I figured out the fluid spine tip, also. It is so important to keep the head back behind the ball and give that club clearance to just fly on through.

    Clay, I've been golfing for about a year now and I can drive on avg about 200-225 dead straight every time. But my irons hold me back. I hook every shot to the left and I shoot the same way as you.
    I've been looking for some sort of instructional on YT and of course, again.. you have the answer. I cannot wait to try this as my irons are frustrating the heck out of me. Thank you, Clay.
    You're the best instructional golfer on YT.

    It is just wonderful that a pro golfer as talented as yourself is willing to open up and share your complex understanding of how to break down the golf swing in such an easy to understand fashion. You have a remarkable way of giving all the truly crucial pieces information regarding the swing in the best and easiest methods. I’m always surprised at how many people pay pros and walk away and the person was never told to fire the hips to initiate the arm’s down swing or the person wasn’t told to keep their right arm tucked in and the left arm straight “because” they needed those things in place to force the swing outward rather than across the body.
    Anyway, what you’re doing is a real service and just great. Keep up the great work.

    Ive watched so many videos on "Over the Top" swings to cure my slice and shanks but this has to be the best video for explanation and cure. Tucking that right arm in has given me the confidence to rotate through the follow through and hit the ball cleaner and straighter

    Amazing instructor. Joined the Top Speed Golf program last week and been watching and working on the drills indoors and hitting range today. Amazing how much more powerful my swing is already. Can't wait to school my friends this summer. Used to be a 5 handicap and now its 25 due to a ton of bad habits as I got older and protecting my back and hips. But, using these exercises and drills, zero pain. Gang, due yourself a favor and join Clay's system. Just take small gulps of the info because all of it is crazy good!

    Clay, I am so glad that I found your channel. This video I felt like you have been watching me play golf the past few rounds. 😀. I am looking forward to working on this drill/tip at the range and on the course.
    My main issue is that I am a right leg amputee and right handed so I feel that I need to really rotate which of course that makes me pull iron and driver shots.
    Do you have any tips for golfers that are amputees, which greatly reduces power , to gain some power back in their shots?

  • @CK-mi5tw
    @CK-mi5tw 3 роки тому +1

    Hi Clay, I developed a destructive pull hook in my swing for the last 12months. Very bad. Couldnt figure it out. Was actually on the verge of quitting it was driving me so crazy! It was ridiculous the amount of balls I was losing. Had worked a lot on tucking that trail arm in. Felt great but found I could get very flicky with the wrists/hands at impact. Was getting to the stage where I was dead off most tee boxes. But this ties in great with a few lessons I got recently. I had obviously sacraficed rotation while working on that trail arm. Club was getting left behind me in the downswing. So much of the golf swing, for me, is just trying to understand where you need to be. So many drill vids out there about 1 tiny part of the swing, which are fine too, but this is great because you give the rotation advice along with the trail arm advice. Its vital. I understand more and more thanks to vids like yours and it massively helps to explain to me where I was going wrong and why I could feel the flicking of the hands/wrists at impact yet never really knew why. Thanks for the great work and keep it up. Regards from Ireland.
