Great lesson and drills. Thanks! Curious about “grip strength”… that is t the same a grip pressure, right? I feel like I can swing faster and do a better job releasing the club through impact with a fairly light grip on the club. Where does grip strength differ from that? Thanks
Just got back from 18 at an executive course …and i had some great shots , mostly by using course management…hitting to a distance on the par 4s instead of trying to hit driver… but id still have some erratic shots ,some multiple in a row ..which saw my score still almost as bad as in the recent past … cant remember do you guys have a lesson video on improving making g consistent contact drills ? Got my chipping on the right path ,improving greatly from yoU guys (and another guy for simplifying setup with club etc) so id like to try anything youve got on contact … its the only thing left that frustrates me lol …i dont feel im changing anythiNg yet one swing will be flushed perfectly and straighT…the next i setup the same swing and its a top or chunk it ,maybe 3 of those in a row , then a perfect hit on the next 5 shots ….and im not even talking g about bad lies (ball above or below Etc) im talking about g a normal fairway or low rough shot
Patrick here - my average 7i before this lesson carried about 125-135 depending on the strike quality and if it went left or right. After the lesson I’ve been about 10-15 yards further instantly, and I’m hoping to keep adding distance as I work on swing speed
Now, what’s your pace of play? If it takes you more than 2 hrs to play 18 holes, with a cart, you’re too slow. I can play 18 holes in 1 1/2 hour on my home course. I shoot high 70s usually. Slow play is the most irritating part of the game.

Great teaching points + willing student = Success
Where is that tee shot from @ :04
Doesn't look like Old Hickory - but its been 7-8 years since I played there.
Dalhousie Golf Club in Cape Girardeau, MO
Enjoyed the lesson. Curious, is it possible for Ed to elaborate on how to hold that wrist angle? Thanks
Yeah we have covered it in a few previous videos but it’s probably worth going into more detail since it’s a tricky concept for players to get right
@@TheGolfSenseiThanks!

No I don’t mean grip pressure on the club. It’s just that measurable grip strength means you can swing the club head faster
@@edschwent1630 thank you.
Love your guys videos. I’d love to see his distance off the monitor
Yeah next time we will get Trackman going! We didn’t have much time to record this one so we kept it simple

Wait , i missed this magic 2 club drill ….😊 I don’t know how , or was it in another video?
Ed showed me this a few years ago but I don’t know if we’ve had it on the channel before. It’s a great one! -Patrick

What distance are you hitting 7 iron?

@@TheGolfSensei How far are you hitting your driver?
130 yards lol
Sensei, your thoughts on Joe Dante?
I don’t know him but I’ll check him out
After checking Joe Dante out I can’t believe I haven’t heard or read his book….I just ordered it I’ll let you know…thanks a lot!
I can't wait to hear your thoughts
on his 4 Magic Moves, written in the 1960's!
I keep hitting the ground behind the ball…can’t do his release technique.
We plan to do a video soon about avoiding fat shots, hitting behind the ball

I hit 7 iron about 109…
Me too, I can also hit a ball with a 7 iron around 10feet
@@anzu3439 Haha good one.
