    In today’s video we’re going to talk about one of the simplest things you can do to start hitting better golf shots...
    I’m talking about the waggle, which done properly is much more than just a way to shake off the nerves before you take the club back.
    A good waggle is a mini dress rehearsal for your swing, training your hands, arms, and trail elbow for the proper positions at impact…
    And best of all, it’s something you can rely on under pressure to help you preset your swing for success.
    We'll take a look at how Tiger Woods views the waggle, as well as all-time greats like Ben Hogan and Sam Snead. In fact, Hogan dedicated several full pages in his classic book "5 Lessons" just to the details of the waggle.
    It's one of the simplest things you can do, and it can make a huge improvement in your ball striking!

    This video covers all the important aspects of the golf swing.
    Really focusing on lag, club shaft lean and covering the ball has made a world of difference in my ball striking.
    Great video!

    Zach, you are blessed with a very calming golf teaching technique. Whenever l see you come on w a new video, my blood pressure goes down about 20 points.
    Then l play and it goes up again.

    This is great! If there's one thing I used to do, that I don't now, it's the waggle! As you demonstrated, I practice the take away. If you think about it, you'll see that the waggle is practicing "the release". That is something you have to time perfectly. What a great way to practice it right before you swing!

    This is huge. I recently read Hogan's book and have been working on my swing for the past year and a half...time for some lessons but I laughed when your video came up in the algorithm because I do this waggle already subconsciously...just started within the last couple months. Never picked it up because someone told me to, just started doing it. It helps center me, and gets me calm, gets my swing in motion without standing over the ball too long.

    Looking for some clarity, or affirmation. So when the trail wrist bends backwards it causing the trail elbow to in toward are in front of hip. The lead arm rotates away from the target which places the back of the lead hand facing away from my body. As I rotate away from the ball these hand and forearm positions are maintained. Does the foreman rotate or twist toward the target in the diwnswing?

    Zach great video. Early 50s, Right-handed golfer with hip arthritis in left hip. Any suggestions for players with hip mobility issues on changes to the swing to minimize impact on the hips?

    Really interesting Zach. I am re-reading Hogan now. I feel like I misinterpreted the text in the past. Hogan describes the swing as an extension of the waggle. However, unless the turn and waggle are blended on the backswing one can fall into the trap of waggling first then moving into the backswing which rolls the forearms inside and early with an open face. I have struggled with this habit since and am only now starting to better understand the blend and ensure I turn correctly in the backswing.

    • @ZachAllenGolf
      @ZachAllenGolf  Місяць тому +1

      You are an exactly right. Waggle is a part of the backswing feel, but not the beginning.

    • @DASH1ful

      Well, the waggle doesn't roll the left forearm; or open the face. Hogan tells us to make a "downwards rotation of the left hand in the waggle", which is key. And, if you waggle the club back, then just simply move your arms towards the ball, you will find that the clubface is square to the target. Obviously, that is not how we would return the club to the ball in the waggle, but, this proves that the club doesn't open in the waggle. And, when we make a downwards rotation of the left hand, in the waggle, it extends the extensors in the hand. This then enables us to extend the extensors, as we push back with the left arm, in the actual takeaway. A great way to get a feel for this is to hold the club out to your left, with your left hand; and, then press your hand in front of the clubhead. This will extend the hand; and, it will actually set the club in motion, on the correct arc.

    Hey Zach, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made.
    I was wondering if I could help you edit your videos and repurpose your long videos into highly engaging shorts? I can also make high CTR thumbnails for your channel

    This is for people with higher swing speed, for lower swing speeds this will be detrimental for distance and ball flight.

    Should I take club back in same direction as waggle is going back?

    Was very interested in learning about this training method. However after watching for about 20 minutes and having to force myself to stay awake after he kept on repeating himself over and over again I finally gave up. I hope he eventually got to the end of his story in under an hour.

  • @DASH1ful
    @DASH1ful 28 днів тому

    Yes, "as ye waggle so shall ye swing"; but, i want to tell you that there is a new and improved way of waggling the club, which actually integrates the waggle into our pre swing routine. If you grip the club lightly, when you initially take your grip, at address; and, then raise your position, to look up at the target, the weight of the club will actually press the club up against the heel pad of your left hand. This arches the hand slightly; and, it, also, presses the hand fowards, which, in effect, waggles the club back. The extensors, in the hand, extend passively, which gives the hand more flexion. The club is returned to the ball in exactly the same way as you would normally return it to the ball in the waggle- by pressing the index finger side of the left hand towards the adjacent thumb pad of the right hand, which is, also, how the club is returned to the ball from the top of the backswing.
