    That take away he talks about at the end is so important. Both Nicklaus and Palmer insisted all of their careers that the first 2 to 4 inches going back is SO IMPORTANT. Nickaus even said it was everything.They never explained why however. But that is where the "connection" (arms, shoulders, & body) is established just as Rory points out. And if you do not establish it there it is almost impossible to get back. That's how you take your range game to the golf course. When you stay "connected" much less timing is needed in the swing. Get those big body trunk muscles to start it back, not your arms and shoulders. Drag them along for the ride. I like to think of it as from the bottom -up (just over my belt line), not the top-down (arms and shouilders). And you will develop a touring pro swing. It may seem "tighter" but you won't be shorter. You'll be both long and straight.

      A lot of places have somewhat cheap (for golf, think 100-300+ per hour as a standard) where you can go take a bunch of shots and have them break down the exact moments those errors are occurring in relation to geometrical angles/lines for your body. Lots of ways to really get those last details down.

    Alignment and aim are everything.

    Why? Easy. My buddy told me to pick the shot first. Then commit to the shot.
    Set up set up set up.
    Pick s target close to the ball for aim.
    Then align to the aim point.
    Then " get out of the way of the swing. Let it happen"

    Rory has a video on how he hits bunker shots. I now could care less if I end up in the sand, although GIR was the plan. Lost all fear. He just says it as if this is what’s my best preferred method and explains why even though he can do them all. In this Video Rory shows why he has it all and willing to share. Thanks to Coach as well.

    • @phillp7777
      @phillp7777 2 роки тому +1

      lookin down you can should see like 2 or 3 most knuckles of yur left top hand ( righty golfer like rory)... if u see like 4 knuckles u got a " strong" grip and mostly can will hook it go left alot... when rory young kid talkn bout it.. he's smaller weaker muscles not as strong arm upper body soo.. a strong grip w 3-4 knuckles showing makes it lil easier to hit hard stronger shots farther too...
      Really want to have more " neutral " grip... both hands work together not left dominate over yur right hand.
      look up " weak" grip see the opposite.. some players have that a weak grip.. can slice way easier w a weak grip.
      Goodluck

    What I lacked is width in my swing because at the beginning of the backswing, I was keeping my hands too close to my hip instead of extending the butt of the club away & allowing space between them that makes my swing longer with a bigger arc. I was keeping them close in an effort to keep my arms connected for my body sequence while it's obvious that I should have been doing the exact opposite.

    Very good video. All of the great players mainly played one shape of shot. Fade - Hogan, Nicklaus, Trevino, Rahm, Koepka, and others; Draw - Jones, Player, Watson, Woods, McIlroy and others. Choose either a fade or a draw as your main shape. Never try to hit the ball dead straight. I mainly hit a draw with my driver for distance, and a fade with my irons and 3-wood for control, height, and stopping power. I shot a 60 on a very tough course that way. It works. Of course, putting is the most important part of the game. Learn how to read greens and how to putt, and practice your putting the most.

    Well, we're flabbergasted at Rory's low, piercing driver swing in that he seems to leave the tee height and ball position the same as a normal driver but focuses on 'keeping his height through the swing' to afford a more shallow attack angle so the ball flight becomes a more bullet-like , boring shot. Pretty impressive! Not at all the conventional: ie tee it low, play it back in your stance, etc. etc.

    Wondering when that was shot as Rory is using an M3 Driver head(5:24 of video). My guess either it was filmed while ago, OR Rory just likes that head so much that he has not changed to an M5 or even the new SIM, which he surely has access to right now.

      He had the SIM last time he played, so did Rahm and Tiger.

    You could not artificially create a more perfect golf swing than that. Poetry in motion.

    Jack does/did same thing. Picking something out a couple feet from the ball as an intermediate target to aim/hit at. Iv'e tried it but can't seem to work for me. great video

    Best swing in the game today. If he can get his putting back to where it was when he was with Titleist he would be unstoppable
