Who 🤷🏻♂️😂🏌️♂️
Thanks though and hope this helps you:)
Hi Alex, Thank you for these driver insructions .. it's just what I wanted.
I'm a 13 HCap and my objective is to hit Driver consistently 200+ onto fairway everytime.
Distance is not problem, I need accuracy.
I found the key was correct set-up and to swinging the club in a relaxed tempo WIDE, LOOSE & SMOOTH.
I was trying too hard and over-controlling, which lead to tension. I thought a shorter backswing and hitting harder would give me more control I needed, but it was too inconsistent. My drives were +/- 100yds dispersion from the target line, usually with a high slice. I often ended up OB or in the rough, which is a score-destroyer.
Now, I'm hitting fairways consistently with +/- 20yds dispersion for majority of shots, with longer distances with less effort.
Less is definetly more with the driver.
Spot on, Alex. Wide and relaxed really improve my ball striking. Thanks for compiling this tips. This lesson is a keeper.
Well that’s super to hear. Keep at it ;)
Absolutely right on the mark! I’ve found that the more relaxed I am with the driver, the better my results are. Just get out of the way and let it go!
That’s the idea! Well done and keep at it ;)
I'm 57 and was driving it 200 to 230. Last Saturday, after using these tips, I had 2 drives of 270 yards with a nice draw in the middle of the fairway. Your lessons are transforming my golf game. Thank you!!
Well done indeed! Keep at it 🏌️♂️💪
Thankyou you just described my driving as,I am always tense and always take a massive downward swing at the ball never consistent am,going to give this a try.
Happy to help and let us know how it goes
Thank you so muche ! Sir Alex
Thank-you, going to give it a try tomorrow
Let us know
This WORKS. I have watched countless videos on how to get more distance with my driver. Alex, I subscribed to your channel and after watching this video and using your suggestions I am now getting a consistent driving distance improvement of between 20 to 40 yards per drive. I highly recommend the AOSG channel. Thank you so much.
👍🏌️♂️🏆 very well done and I’m delighted to hear that could point you in the right direction. Keep at it
Simply brilliant
Cheers Stan!
Great video as usual 👍 thank you
Glad you enjoyed it 🏌️♂️👍
Excellent, especially that looseness and dropping the club down
Makes it a little easier
Great tip,Thanhs Alex,you have a new fan.
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks!
Why thank you. Much appreciated
I really enjoy your simple explanation
It's the only way when you realize it
I am trying to fix my out to in swing. I'm sure this information will be very helpful
Good! It should be and we have other videos on that too
Alex! An excellent explanation of hitting "the big dog." Have supple arms, hinge the wrists going back, drop the club, rotate the body, and rehinge. Nothing easier than that!
Why thank you! Glad to hear it got the points to you and have fun implementing:)
Tight, tension, death grip....that's me. Relax, loosey goosey is the key. Great video, can't wait to get to the range today. Thank you.
Let us know how you get on please:)
Great lesson. I'd love to see you take a hacker high handicap like me and apply these principles for us to see.
Got something like that planned :)
Thanks
Great instruction best coach out there
Too kind but I appreciate it
🏌️♂️👍
yes i am a tension monster . 5 ft 6 in 220 54 inch chest construction worker , not flexible but strong . swing speed was around 100 with back swing slow and maxed out hands at 9 o clock . i have watched several of your videos and im going to give it a shot . i feel like pressing down into front leg will cause me contact problems . i have done stack and tilt which does not require weight shift and my contact got much better . now i watched a video from a woman golfer to see how they hit the ball so far yet are so small and she said they dont shift down and fwd but sit into legs to start down swing and the extend front leg . i have a bad slice i moved the ball fwd to hit more up on it and i think i moved it too far fwd . i moved my trail foot back from target line to help get in to out path and i can mostly hit them strait . i need more time to really find my swing . i think this might be the answer because of my flexibility issues . i had one drive that went almost 300 yards i cant tell you how . i usually hit like 230 to 250 with driver . my 8 iron im like 130 but im inconsistent frustrated for sure stack and tilt has helped me to hit a lot better but i am worried about adding more variables with transferring weight and getting clean contact .
Using momentum, lower body and less tension will always yield more Sopes. Without force or extra effort. Keep at it
Thanks Alex, after applying these tips, I still struggled to get consistency. What I don’t hear instructers tell us enough is to also make sure the weight (through the hips) is mostly, if not almost all, forward. That really helped me get distance and consistency.
Mr.Fortey I will try you're advice this week when I get a new driver my last one didn't float so well
Not sure they float but they are bloody good… the Ben Hogans. And you get $50 off with link below ;)

@@mikebiase6710 it’s genuinely very solid and looks great too. Price is unbeatable for something as good as anything else on market
Great video Alex, thank you. I do feel that I'm too tense through the swing, so will be trying these tips. Doesn't your swing/ball speeds influence your distance outcome though?
Yes speed is key but also solid contact and how you strike it and path does a great deal too
Hi Alex just watched your video really like the content. I’ve been struggling for the past year out of nowhere I can’t hit my driver off the tee had a couple of lessons but nothing has worked. Keep hitting down into the ball it bounces off the ground then goes about 20 yards. I’m at the point now where I leave it at home. At the driving range I’m fine this is why I’m so frustrated.
Alex, I enjoy your video's, very informative. My problem is I have injured my right shoulder but it is not severe enough to stop playing but unfortunately my game is suffering dramatically. I have NO height on my flight, developed a snap hook, also periodically my ball flies very high with no distance. I believe my swing is inside, low and my body is turning quickly. I am playing the worst golf I have every played and at one time a year ago, I was club champion, now I am club chump. If you have any suggestions I would gratefully appreciate it.....thank you
I'm sorry to hear that! Well.. i'd start with the lessons that cover short swing, efficient swing, and really allow suppleness and flow with it. Less strain, less length and work on compression.
Very interesting lesson. Where do you teach?
Louisville Ky, Uk and online ;)
Heavy club sensation @ 5.53...I didn't know until I weighed all of my clubs, but the driver is actually the lightest club in the bag! I try to loosen up my wrists until I can feel the weight of the club head! 👍
Heavier clubs can help way more folks than most realize. Keep at it!
I subscribed to your Driving journey but I cannot go further than lesson 1.2 . So far it has been and I wish to follow the lessons in order.
Hmmm can you email us so we can see what’s occurred? Thanks
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf Yes, I sent an email yesterday and just now
I’m going to try it on driver method. I’m trying to work on a new form. Because how I do it now does not work. I grip the same way you do. So I’m watching all your videos now
I find tension kills my swing. My tempo at the start of the downswing Hass to be a slow as my take away or it feels like I’m jumping at the ball and I find that my contact is so much better even though the speed of my swing seems to feel so much slower almost like I’m not gonna hit the ball anywhere I think with me slow is smooth and smooth is fast what do you think ? does that make sense? I think with me it’s better to hit the ball square than to hit the ball hard I’d love to see a video on something like that. Thanks love your videos
Maybe do not think slow as much… gradual and the sequence of lower body and arms drop will give you time.
Smooth and acceleration is great. But a key for speed is the arms speed from the top.
On another video you talk about the importance of looking a couple of inches in front of the ball for irons. Would you do the same with driver? Or would you look at a spot on the ground a couple of inches behind the ball because the bottom of the swing is behind the ball with driver?
Exactly and I have a lesson coming very soon on that and other points
Alex, do you subscribe to having the lead arm slightly higher than the the trail arm?
It can help many. As a Rule.. maybe 7/10 times
Keep getting stuck on my back foot when I do this. Do you have another video that addresses this issue?
Look for step sequence
👍👍👍
🏌️♂️💪
Hi. I rely on top spin on the ball to give me distance As the ball lands it runs a considerable distance rather than land and stop. Almost catching up with my partners
I like it 💪🏌️♂️
Tension creeping back into my swing during every round happens so often to me. Anything I can make part of my pre-shot routine to reduce these occurrences?
Look for stress free golf video we did as well as focusing on an intermediate point ahead of the ball and never stop moving before you fire.
Also see our start the swing videos
Do this fixes my slice to! I changed one thing in my iron swing from one of your videos and it added 20 meter on all clubs ( not driver)
Excellent!! Hope this helps some length with the driver too ;)
@@TheArtofSimpleGolf will it help me get the slice away???
@@patricksten-bjrkli617 yes. Re watch set up section and the arms dropping with back to target longer. This will help over the top and path for slice. If still… your clubface is open
Would this suppleness and looseness be useful with irons as well?
Oh yes ua-cam.com/video/yM8NFtTsyds/v-deo.html will show it. But we have several lessons here that do and series theartofsimplegolf.com/the-iron-ignitor/
I am totally relaxed when I hit perfect drives. I pretend I have a raw egg in each hand. I can't feel my arms, I turn my shoulders and feel weight in left right heel. I transfer my weight only to left foot and I dont consciously start my downswing. It happens on its own because my arms are so relaxed I couldn't stop them if I wanted to. When I pull this off I hit the sweet spot on slight upstroke. The ball goes max distance and straight. I let go confident that I am getting out of my own way. It wants to go straights and unless I twitch or put tension in the swing it will go straight. New clubs are very forgiving and designed to go straight. I dont even bother with a draw anymore.
I like that :) keep at it 🏌️♂️👍
So keep thinking "wide arms" when you do the straight down move?
Yes that can help
I feel exactly like you said tension and i cant hit a drive more than 200 to 210 yards but i cant change it!
Well get loose and see how you do
I’ll try this I’m struggling keep pushing the ball only 30m to the left from being too tense 😢
Sounds like this should help. Let us know
I stay tense all the time and raise my head
Hi ok e this helps remedy it somewhat
Two questions I have
1. Are you intentionally hinging your wrists or are you doing this naturally?
2. When do you start to swing fast, or increase max swing speed, within the downswing?
Hinge happens because of soft wrists and flow.
Speed comes from handle moving down first and then letting it go with some turn
I feel when Effortless swing = slow back swing it's make down swing too difficultly to hit at center of the ball
Doesn’t mean slow. Smooth is key. Momentum. Throw club back, slow and catch the weight of momentum near top of backswing g and gradual acceleration from there 🏌️♂️👍

You called me out. I grip too tightly and try as I may, I am too rigid through my swing. Part of it has not really knowing how the swing is supposed to feel.
Feel the weights of the club! Heavy arms.
Aha! I know your secret! You're Justin Rose!
Or is Justin Rose Alex Fortey ? 🏌️♂️
Driver is my worst club. I will try this.
Please do and let us know !
I find the feeling of dripping the club so hard to understand 😔
Heavy arms feel
Is this Justin Rose in disguise ?
Justin Rose is Alex Fortey in Disguise :)
