I've been trying to figure this out for 20 years , not one of the 25 pros that I've had lessons from has explained it this well. I just got done hitting balls, not one Pull
Thank you
In all my years of watching instructional video's I have never seen anyone else explain the down swing in such an easy to understand way.
Thanks Mate 👍
Wow, you are the first person to be able to demonstrate why I’m pulling my shots in such a way that it makes sense. I am definitely your number 2 example because that’s the feeling I’ve trained to purposefully. For weeks, I’ve tried to have my trunk pull my arms through. Thanks so much for this. I’ll incorporate this drill today because I’m tired of missing so far left.
I like the way he indexes his video, and his advice, too. Been looking for a video about this down and around idea.
One of the best videos explaining this fix. I was having this problem for more than a year and this explanation finally fixed it for me.
Very helpful and exactly an issue that is one of the last ones I really have to work through. It's very subtle, I only need to get my hand down about 2-3 inches and delay my hips a tiny bit to get into that position, but it's one of the more persistent challenges to try and fix. My swing has made a ton of progress lately, but this one is plaguing me just a bit :). I'll use this drill to see if I can get that last little hitch out of my swing.
This is me in a nutshell, both in pull tendency and my attempted approach to correct it (spearing the ball, and/or leaving the club at the top). This makes perfect sense and I can’t wait to try it. TY!
Very good explanation. Gonna try this and see if it helps me. Thanks.
Thanks very good tip. Practice, Practice... that is what I need to do.
Excellent description of the cause of the pull. Breaking the swing down as described has minimized my pulls. Thank you.
Great video and tip - I struggle with the pull and just seeing how isolating the hands at the top and thinking about the first move being down vs out is fantastic. Can definitely notice a difference now on the range and feel that I’m keeping the club face much more on plane to ball contact than before
I have this exact issue. I struggled with a slice all my life. I've recently started lessons with a PGA pro. He strengthened my grip and taught me to rotate to square the club face. 30 or so years ago, I was taught to shift weight to my rear leg, and then shift to the lead leg while turning around that lead leg, releasing the club by turning my wrists and forearms to square the club face. Ever since learning the modern swing, my miss has been a pull left that draws/hooks after starting dead left. I think this video in particular will help me cure that mistake and hit the ball straighter.
Really interesting. I'm a lefty and I think I have a similar swing fault. With the longer clubs I get a lot of shots going out to my left. I feel like my lead arm pulls and I hack the face toward the ball instead of dropping down like demo'd in the video. Eager to try out and get a feel for this.
Love this channel, always great info in a clear manner, thank you. I do have this issue and find when I am more on plane or coming from inside, strike tends be more of an issue. More thins and some fats. As i believe low point moves back when coming from inside.... Therefore, good idea for video... how to maintain ball first strike when fixing OTT and trying to be more on plane or from inside. Effect on low point
Insightful video. I do this sometimes. Another thing that helps is keeping that right shoulder tucked in and swing like this. Removes the problem almost always
By far one of the best videos … short and simple ! Thank You
Glad you like it!
Thanks 👍
This was an excellent instructional demonstration as it showed exactly the downward and forward movement of the club throughout the entire swing, as well as showed and explained the potential effects of the club’s face. Stopping and explaining each transition really helped me understand at which point my swing is less than ideal. This was helpful to me-thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Glad it was helpful!
Many Thanks 👍
It really did that’s what I been practicing,dropping the club under the shoulders
Thanks for this video! Helped me a lot!
You're welcome, Ralph! Keep in touch!
I have been pulling my shots for some time now and have been offered several solutions which never worked. After watching this video, I went out on the golf course and, not only did it fix this problem, I was hitting longer and more accurately. Thanks, great video
Wow, this tip helped me SO MUCH! I watched it before I played today, then worked on the range before the round to get the feel of dropping my hands straight down. Played my best round of the year - 71 - and my ball striking was so solid. THANKS!
Wow! That's awesome! Great job out there. You're welcome and thank you!
That's my exact problem! Can't wait to get to the driving range! Thank you!
Very good information. Exactly what I've been working on during the winter months and it has helped so much.
Glad it helped, Landon! Thank you!
Watched this so many times! Just awesome!
Thank you, Jeffrey!
Great vid! I’ve seen this drill before but a big question is when you are pulling down from the top, what matchup is needed/shallowing technique so that the force pulling down on the grip doesn’t steepen the shaft to much and send the clubhead out over the top. Thank you so much in advance! Keep up the great content !
Good morning. Thanks Kerrod I played my last game of the season and I did well Thanks to this video, and others o your site. They ask me who ? So I give them your site. Thanks again for helping me play better. God bless you my friend. Bye bye Oscar . Canada
I hit good drives then the trouble begins. The second shot has been my score killer for the last six years.
The dead left pull!!! That’s me. I am going to try this tip and hope and pray I can get it, I will let you know. Thanks for this tip BTW I felt you where looking at my swing and talking to me.
I love these videos that were especially prepared for me. I have been fighting this issue lately and didn’t know how to fix it. Thank you so much.
Great to hear....Thanks a Lot
Keep trying... Best of luck👍
Well done!
Thanks!
Brilliant explanation. You paint a clear picture of fixing this problem that has crept into my game.
Thanks
Really helpfull. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful! You're welcome, mate!
It always amazes me how simple these little fixes are, yet you don't realize it till someone shows you. This is exactly what I needed to see, thank you.
Great to hear!
Oh man I needed this video so bad
Great video. I always struggke with pull lefts, be interesting to see how that works. Would that be the same with the driver? As i have low snap hooks with that.
Good stuff!
Thanks!
Impressive demonstration of the fault and correction! Bravo!
Many Thanks 👍
sensational tips thankyou
You're so welcome!
Thank you again for your very helpfull advice. Regards from U.K.
Many Thanks 👍
Just to add to my previous comment. Today I worked on this move dropping the arms. I found for my irons it worked great but when I went to the driver it took some work to get the release timed properly So I think with driver it requires morpractice in timing the release. I found that releasing earlier in that downward move worked best. Thanks again…
Thank you for the video. That's exactly the issue I have. I'll practice the drill you provided in the video next time in the range.
You're welcome! Goodluck!
Awesome video 😊...now I know. Thanks💯
Happy to help!
I was just practicing this on the range and discussing it with a practice friend. This is a perfect explanation. WOW!
Thank you, Eric! Appreciate it!
Thx mate 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks for watching 👍
Great video. Very visual and makes it easier to follow the approach. As a lefty on par threes I pull it right it seems every other time.
Glad it was helpful!
That was so helpful. I consistently miss to the left. Can't wait to try this.
Many Thanks!
Good Luck for your game 👍
You make the cause very clear. The "pro" cure for this looks difficult to achieve. I'll have to give the drop and rotate technique a try on the range. I seem to get pulls when I try to swing too fast.
Excellent way to explain this. I have this issue and it kills me. I really like your videos and you have a great presentation style. Just subscribed and keep up the good work.
Thanks a lot Marcus👍
Im practising this tomorrow. Thanks
Best of luck!
Best golf channel on youtube IMO
Thanks a Lot 👍
Great stuff. I was swinging well...last year...but starting the year with a consistent pull...even on half-swings! Thanks for the demo of the bad swings as I sense that my hands were too far from my body and, yes, I'm terrified of hitting well behind the ball. Rehearsing in three parts is giving me confidence. Now to the range!
You're welcome, j radak! Keep it up!
Thanks buddy !! I am on that 👏👏
Great!
Thank you!
Thanks for the visit👍
Nailed me m8.. on it well done thanks
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks 👍
Dear Kerrod:I have one question.You teached us the hand path should be more vertical during down swing.How should I do to make my shaft shallow when hand move down more vertical?
Best online lesson Ive seen.. this was a lightbulb moment for me. Just realized Im spearing my handle at the ball. Cheers
That's great! Thanks Dave!
Thanks Kerrod 👍🍻🇨🇦
Thanks for watching 👍
You have a rare talent and aptitude for the game. More importantly you know how to impart this wisdom and make it stick. I e seen several of your videos. They're all great but this one beats them all. Your how to not pull the ball to unique is a guide for exactly his to swing a club. Just AWESOME stuff.
Appreciate it! Thank you!
Great explanation. Thank you. I am pretty sure that this is my issue
Glad it helped
Terrific instruction on this swing concept. This describes exactly how my game was today. The drill seems spot on and I will take it to the range this week. It’s so frustrating to hit a great drive, have a short iron in and yank it to the left. Happened at least 3 times today. Thanks Kerry.
You’re very welcome!
Outstanding 👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Good explanation.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent explanation
Glad you liked it
I am a relative newcomer to the game and taking lessons from a local pro. I have this exact issue of pulling to the left. My coach did many adjustments to my swing that left me more confused and frustrated. This is exactly what I needed! Thank you for this excellent video.
Thanks Vinay.....Best of luck 👍
Found when I say seventeen during swing my tempo makes it good feeling of club dropping.used to say Ernie Els or Cindy Crawford but found VJ Singh's 'Seven teen'.fits my tempo best.
Dennis
Great instructional vid. Thanks so much. This is exactly me. The thing that has helped me a lot recently is putting an alignment stick in the ground, on my right side, at an angle and making sure I swing under it on the way through. I always knew about this drill but never used it. I was amazed how much it changed my swing path instantly knowing I had to get under the stick on the DS. The first part of my DS feels so slow when I drop my hands. Swing path is now in to out. Ball fight is lower with a slight draw (except when I get too quick with my hands and smash into the alignment stick 🤦♂️).
Thanks again for the great content.
Glad to hear from you, Matt! You're welcome!
THE video I’ve been looking for. Thanks for doing the Lords work here
Thanks! Happy to help 🙌
You just sove one of my biggest problems. Thank you
Great! Thanks mate!
Gained weight raising waist from 36" to 40" - would thaty also influence a changed swing to come through around the body more to the left?
TY,TY,TY for 3 yrs I have been trying to figure this out, especially pulling short irons and short pitches. Went out in my yard,I have 6 acres, after 2 attempts with A wedge badda bing. Now I ghave to practice up the iron scale.
Good stuff. I tend to pull the ball late I rounds when I get lazy. Super helpful.
Glad it helped, Mario!
Someone told me to act as if I’m dropping my hands and letting the club drop. This is demonstrating exactly what he said to me. Thank you
You're welcome!
Thank you. Thank you! I pull the ball exactly as you have stated. I go through periods when I play pulling the freakin ball. I am going to the range and practice dropping my arms. Excellent explanation and remedy.
Great job!
Thanks!
Welcome!
this instantly fixed my pull, thank you!!
That's great! Keep watching!
Brilliant, I used to shank everything now I’m pulling I think it’s the bottom half that’s causing mine, I’ll defo be out tomorrow trying this new to me drill
This is by far the best tip I need now. My understanding is by avoiding pulling left, this also improves ball contact with the clubface by making the swing arc more oval other than circular round, helps better covering the ball (as indicated in one of your other video clips) by moving the hands as low as can be in the downswing (as indicated in your other clip). Results are great: more distance and more accuracy. MUCH APPRECIATION from Saudi Arabia to you, Kerrod Gray.
Glad it is helpful.... Keep trying and share your views likewise
Thanks a Lot and Good Luck 👍
Bloody excellent I’ve been wondering why my shots have been going left with a draw finish. Cheers.
Glad it helped! Thanks!
That’s definitely me. I hit it pure but left. Can’t wait to work on this. Thank you
You're so welcome!
Awesome drill. Been pulling or slicing my whole life. Starting to slowly draw the ball
Keep it up, Steve! Thanks for watching!
I've been doing a great ball strike...wide left approx 10-15 yards. So i shoot my shot and aim for the right edge of the green! Works pretty good if you seriously aim for the right edge...
That's great that you found something that works for you. Much easier than restructuring your whole swing.
Please share your videos on how to play hybrids ?
Justin Rose missed cut at Open..one of my favorite players...I now will thing of his preswing dropping club..wonder if picking left lower quadrant of ball to hit might would help keep club inside...think will stick to your preswing dropping the club get the feel the motion rather thand add to my 35 swing thoughts on the backswing.
Thanks your concise instruction

You're welcome!
Could club butt to ball also cause me to hook.I feel my right hand wanting to turn, go under the grip with right palm facing skyward on the downswing
Can we also implement this with driver swings?
Nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
This is exactly my problem. I gave up golf for 20 years, and taking it back up, I'm hittting the ball well most of the time, but I seem to pull all my short irons left, and sometimes pull longer irons and fairway woods as well. This would explain it, as my arms are locked to the body, and pulled downward by my leg drive and weight shift. You have explained the solution perfectly, and I see exactly what you are doing. Now, can I replicate it without hitting the ball fat? We shall soon see. ;)
Answer, yes, I can, and yes, it fixes the problem. I need more reps, and more consistency, but this was very helpful.
This was a great video. I am 70 year old with 5 handicap but have started hitting left with all clubs and low smothering left with driver. Getting no height to speak of. This video feels right will go and practice tomorrow.
Keep it up, Ross! Thank you! Keep me updated and Good luck!
Thank you....
You're welcome!
When you do the drill, what's driving the drop in the club? The left hip centering? Am I centering, falling into the left side?
This is right up my street. Then you thank you. 👍🥃🇨🇦
You're welcome!
The 3rd pull is “ oh my gosh I’m out of sequence” . Great explanation
Does this applies to driver as well
Certainly worth a try. Thanks. I’m torn ethically however. If this works I could put a number of fellas who collect lost golf balls out of a job!!!
It's all caused by swinging across the lap. In both descriptions the hands are faster than the hips, they get out in front of the hips, and as the hip turn speeds up-late-causing a swing path to cut across the lap. Knowing this is the easy part. Stopping it is the hard part.
Great video. Will try this at the range tomorrow. I think this will fix my pull problem. Is this the same for driver?
Exactly what I was wondering. The timing of the release with driver may take some extra work.
Love the explanation, the tip and the accent😂
Happy to help!
I think this would explain a miss I had the other day. I had about 115 yds in and my divot point straight at the flag, but my ball missed 15 yards left on the green. It wasn’t a hook or draw either. So I’m thinking I pulled the handle down too much and pulled it left.
Good vid. Your “bad” shots are better than my best shots 😢
I’m glad I stumbled on this video because you explain exactly what happens to me. So many shots going straight left! Thank you for showing what to do about it in such a clear way!
Glad it helped you! Thanks for watching!
Does the feeling of dropping your hands work with the driver too?
