This was terrific Mike. You and Monte are sort of like Ying and yang to me. You with gears technology and Monte with his kitchen broom. It seems to me you agree on the essentials.
I have to say the "lag" one was such a game changer for me. I have never hit my irons so consistent and pure. I think one of your other videos mentioned holding the angle causes flipping which I sometimes would do if my timing was out. I decided to try "casting" the club and the difference is amazing. Now to sort out my pressure transfer and rotation
I’m glad someone said it. Dj and Rory are some of the best golfers on the planet. I do not have the hip motion nor should I try to replicate the hip motion of Rory bc I am not Rory. I think everyone is caught up in what the pros do instead just having the best fundamentals to produce consistent golf shots. Like if you can swing like Rory you prob wouldn’t be going in for lessons.
Monte your new training aid that you show on BeBetterGolf has helped my swing the most of any drills i have ever used. You should have mentioned that here. Instead you should do a long video about it
Nice reference to "Mitch Scheinblum" in the description 😂 Didn't realize how tall Mike is...I've worked with Monte and he's a big dude, Mike must be pushing 6'4"?
Monte’s ultimate golf lesson plane and release made me finally hit my driver long and straight. 74 years old over 200 yds. Monte is the best more please
I went to check out Monte's channel after seeing this and found that I'd seen a lot of his videos before and sparked some memories! I probably watch a lot of these videos 10 years ago when they came out haha
There is so much well intended misinformation that both confuses and frustrates an average golfer, this video is a breath of fresh air. The combination of AMG and Monte stands alone. I’m strongly considering unsubscribing to all other golf sites- especially those that keep stressing lag and firing the hips as fast as possible- they have little relevance to the occasional average golfer.
Thank you for the kind words, Leonard! I think you'll be doing yourself and game a huge favor by at least not listening to the common ideas on lag and firing the hips. We've got a Pros vs Ams on lag coming out shortly that I think will connect some dots between those two ides😊
Simplified things so well. I thought my hips needed to turn more but upon reflection i was already there after a good arm turn and from there it was going downhill badly. This made me realise I was over complicating things and has allowed my swing to flow so much better. Thanks guys!!
Chase Reyes I agree. He gets world class instruction and then never even listens to them during the actual lesson. He interrupts them and thinks he knows what to do without really listening to what they are trying to teach him.
The wrist set for me has been a huge factor for me. I brought the club so far back, the club would wrap around my body. Broke 3 shafts so far this year including one yesterday on a ping G410 demoing clubs. For me I have to make sure im taking a wide backswing and feel like my lead wrist is faced the target at impact. Best hit was 117mph club head speed 298 carry 324 total. Was a bit high on the spin side at 3400 lol.
@@AthleticMotionGolf the shafts I broke were xstiff stiff and regular. Too broke to afford a new driver and its killing me... Wish I could have talked the guy at dicks sporting to sell me the demo head cheap of the G410. Loved that club
This was incredibly helpful. I’ve instinctively left my arms behind since I started golfing. It’s how I throw a punch, elastic recoil thing. Feels natural, then I watch my swing video and it looks dumb. Thanks
This was fantastic. I purchased his product months ago and my fairway game went from worst to first. Just that piece alone has me living in the low 90s and high 80s playing championship style courses. And I was horrible for years.
It'd be nice if instructors would stop messing up. I was closer to the right motion before I started studying this new wave stuff. I trusted in science and technology and I should have just read the little red book and other vintage teachings
How much tension do you put into hands, wrists, arms, shoulder joints in the swing? Are they super fluid like strings, super rigid like steel, or something in between? What analogy for level of tension might we use? Wet noodles for overly tense people? Is there an appropriate change in tension to embrace or avoid, like gripping hard at the top of the backswing? How can we develop the right feel for these levels of tension?
Monte is one of the good guys out there. He goes against the flow of traditional golf instruction. His honesty is refreshing. Monte's videos on UA-cam are never over 4 minutes, holds your attention, and very instructive. So, thanks AMG, Monte, and my golf coach. At age 69 I am enjoying the game of golf again. Thanks guys.
Mike.... pardon me for contacting you in this fashion.. Would you consider a video on tempo? I was using a metronome app at a PGA driving range as I watched.. It all seemed they swung at the same tempo (72 beats per minute)…..and with all the different clubs! This might be a good idea for a video....also the putting tempo....they all seem to have circled in what seems to be the ultimate tempo for both the full swing and the putting.
Could you please address the high hands at impact vs low hands. It's hard to ignore such successful high hands guys like Couples and Mediate. I have such respect for your opinion and I guess I'm looking for "permission" from you guys to pursue higher hands because it seems to work better for me. But would love to know what you think is going on with Couples and Mediate. Could you possibly describe how high hands works for them etc? Thank you! PS I just found Shaun's video regarding this subject. He is okay with high hands so I guess I'm good!!!
This one's easy, Louis - don't have low hands😊 . Freddy doesn't have high hands, he has them exactly where they should be. If you extend a line out from the butt of the club at setup, it should hit your stomach just above the belt buckle.👍
@@louislane1968 okay i'm with you now... just about everyone has higher hands at impact than they do at address. Many ams go beyond what's acceptable with the result being a difficult time controlling face angle and loft. If those aren't an issue, you're probably in the "good" range👍
Athletic Motion Golf Thank you for catching that. This is good news because I've been incorrect to think matching address and impact shaft angles would improve my ball striking.

Jack Nicklaus said he couldn’t release the club too soon. You’re so right about not trying to create lag.
He probably knew some stuff about the swing😊
I have to say the "lag" one was such a game changer for me. I have never hit my irons so consistent and pure. I think one of your other videos mentioned holding the angle causes flipping which I sometimes would do if my timing was out. I decided to try "casting" the club and the difference is amazing.

Only dueling cargo shorts would have made this video better :)
I've seen Monty on Be Better Golf. I love this guy! " Cool it Elvis". Hahaha. You guys were great together.
Just stumbled over this video. So many gems in here presented by 2 (3 incl. Shaun) great instructors. Helps a lot! Keep up the great work!

So pumped to see Monte (or was it Marty?😀) team up with Mike & Sean! Great job!
Mon-Tay😂
Awesome meeting of the minds and “dejunking”
session here!

So good! Once more! Monte you are the best!
Good stuff guys!
Great video!
🙏👊
🇨🇦 Bill morgan 17:50 brilliant
what a great video. luv it.
Gold
Thanks brother👊
nothing is held in the swing.... thats big! at least to me. position golf is very hard!!
So dsappointed this wasn't filmed at the local public park in cargo shorts.
Nice, I like "Marty""
Who doesn't😊
@@AthleticMotionGolf LOL
Monte that guy must 6 ‘ 8 , you look short next to him !!!!
I was hysterical with you guys laughing about "lag'. 😁
wow 2 of my favorites! great informative vid!
Monte is one of the OG's of YT golf instruction!
Nice reference to "Mitch Scheinblum" in the description 😂

I’ve stopped watching any instruction that’s not AMG. And I love what Monte teaches so this video was awesome.
Simply brilliant.

Recently I’d wanted to ask if Monte has some kind of association with AMG and here we go. 😄👍🏻
Shit! My two favorite golf channels!! Awesome!
Wow can't believe Monte is cheating Brendon
Brendon doesn’t deserve Monte.
@@djp3525 Brendon left Monte for Tony a couple years ago...
Brendon sucks and will never get better
Chase Reyes I agree. He gets world class instruction and then never even listens to them during the actual lesson. He interrupts them and thinks he knows what to do without really listening to what they are trying to teach him.
Brendon is the absolute worst to listen to.
Great collaboration! Good seeing Monte on your channel.
We're not done with yet😄
Stunning instruction & entertainment 🙏🏻❤️☮️
Your too kind🙏
Stop stealing my secret moves!
They're too good, cant' help it😊
Great collab. You guys are awesome!
great video
These (we have another one coming too) were a lot of fun shooting with Marty😂

Just some dudes doing dude stuff.😄
Best golf instructions on the inter webs.
Wow appreciate that, Randy🙏💯

76MUTiger you’ll need a firm grip with supple arms and shoulders.
Start the arms first, is that what Justin Rose simulates in his preshot? (I.e. letting his arms drop then turn)
You nailed it. In fact, Monte has videos on this, which were probably posted after you posted this. Nice!
