    Dude, you are the man! You are the only guy I have seen that actually hits the ball more often. So many guys love to talk to much and show no actual shots. I personally learn by watching someone actually hitting the ball rather than just talk about it too much. Keep the great vids coming. Thanks so much!

      Hello hows your day? I want to share you
      This is a message from your loving God.
      God is a loving God and want to save us all.
      God dont want anybody to suffer or have a hard life. Meaning of life is love and that's what God wants. Thats the meaning of life. If we would take care and love each other that would solve all the problems. But world is not like that. World is a sinful world. God dont destroy this world but we humans do. His immediately ready if you want to serve him. God will show you the right path what leads to life. Its a path of love. God made us and have eternal love and mercy. This world is not what God wanted. But he gave us free will. You can choose good or bad. Thats why he send he's only son Jesus that we had mercy. Jesus is God too because he is God's only son. Now this world have went to very wicked and our God is crying. So many peoples are on the path of destruction. World have allways been wicked but now is extremely bad times going on. God want's peoples to come back to serve him and he wants to give forever life and happiness. God is a God of love, mercy, justice and a judgment.
      He love us peoples as much as hes son Jesus.
      There is one big lie going on this world. Its an evolution lie. First please think this thing. Why all the fruits, berrys and vegetables taste so good? Anybody can go to own home kitchen and try to do the same taste. Then look up please and watch those extremely beautiful birds. Do you really believe birds came from dinosaurs? We need very light bones, right size, correct shape, a bird's beak and feathers. And the same time birds are very beautiful. I send only these two questions to evolution professor and nothing came back(Why berries taste so good and how those little birds survived without wings)
      Then they say evolution gave animals camoflash to survive. Well if we look black panther. They say it's black because it's a night-time hunter and that black color also give it protection during night-time. First thing: evolution dont have brains and it gave that black color they say. Second thing: Please think how many shades of colors are and all animal have to be black.
      Third thing: Then they say there were many panthers with another color also and the best color was left. Because it's the best color in the nigh time. This is a lie also because: if you think like evolutionist's: the animals system also have to know to do black anymore. Rabbit is also brown when it's a summer and white when it's a winter. We need intelligence to do that.
      They say also evolution develops animals or Humans what kind of element we live. Why then fish have gills and whale have lungs? They say first came the first cell and that was finally a fish. And then finally fish came to land and it was frog or something.
      But thats inpossible because gills should also transform to lungs under the water. They brake their own logic when they say that. And how about a whale. Whale proves also God is real because it have lungs. Theory of evolution tells everything started from ocean.
      They also say that plants came from ocean and thats why we have now.
      Thats a lie because:
      The plants have an underwater pollination system. If something comes to the beach it will die for it. And they are breaking their logic again. Fish and other water animals and plants belong to sea.
      Only our loving God can create life and everything what we humans and animals need. People can try to think but the deeper we try to dig the more lost we are. We cant ever create life from nothing.
      A simple car engine also needs its maker, parts, fuel and the right structure to work.
      I had health problems about six years ago. Finally it was so bad i thought im gonna die. My heart was beating fast. My blood pressure was high. Then i started to lose my energy. When i try to walk my legs felt heavy and my stamina went very bad also. Then i started losing my sleep. Eventually i crashed a little into the road and asked God and Jesus to help. Finally I started to run in the toilet all the time too. Then the very awful thing came. I lost fastly almost all my ability to sleep and I started to loose my weight. Blood came out of my nose and I started to lost my hairs too. I visit hospitals and private hospitals too but they couldn't help me. They gave me beta blockers to my heart and finally medicine to my high blood pressure too. I wanted to get inside the hospital but they refused to take me in. In private hospitals they couldn't understand why they dont take me in the main hospital. Finally I contact to other country and I asked can you take me in the hospital. Then they asked where are you here? I told im in the other country and I need a help. But they told me we cant take you in because you dont live here. So I can tell you money didnt help me. Later I told my family im gonna die very soon because I felt completely awful. Finally I asked again God to help me. Then finally my Mother saw one Angel vision and three Jesus vision. After that it took few days and my health came back. I got my sleeping back and my heart started to calm down. I started to gain weight. Blood pressure went back to normal and finally I got all my hairs back. This Is very short version what happend to me but I was close to death. God Is real and loves us very much. When you begin to seek God you Will find True love. Read the Bible too please because its a perfect book. Thats how you know God Is real💕🙏. Read what Jesus told because its perfect talking💕🙏

    I hesitate to write this out of fear of jinxing myself, but I think you may have cured my slice. I just finished a very frustrating round this morning where I sliced every tee shot. I hit the driving range afterward and tried tips #1 and #2 from this video with only a little bit of success. But then I changed my top hand grip WAY more than I thought was needed and I started hitting everything straight for the first time ever. I think my grip was so weak that even moving it a little bit towards a stronger grip felt like overkill. But once I just accepted that the new grip was going to feel strange at first I started to get some good results. Thanks, Danny!

    Great video, Danny. What helped me a ton is to just concentrate on one of these steps every time I went to the range because there's a fear that if you try to put 5 new things in your head at once, you'll probably overthink and get none of them right lol. I'm gonna send this to a few friends that are learning to game. Thanks a ton!

I still need time to get used to the new grip with my irons, but I'm really impressed with the new drives. They're both straighter and longer. You're an outstanding teacher.

    For item 3, your drill for pulling arrow out of the quiver, works for me, to create the snap at the bottom. Item 2 helped me create a nice little draw…I am working on selecting my ball flight. My dopamine response to hitting a draw while aiming down the right edge of the fairway is off the charts! My home course number one hole has a slight turn to the left, from the blues I can clear the bunker on the left hand side. From the tips it is doable, but it is a tougher shot, the other options are straight or draw over the trees and take the bunker completely out of play. So much fun!

    Danny, I’ve played golf most of my life (not seriously but semi regularly) and I’ve always sliced the ball and struggled around the green. My handicap is around 20-25 with me shooting from the low 90s on a great day to around 105 on a bad day. I watched this video the other day and realized I had been gripping the club wrong this whole time. I also watched one of your chipping videos and learned a really reliable way to get close to the hole (the 9 iron pendulum keeping the butt of the handle pointing at my belly button). I took these two changes to the course the other day and shot 3 over par on 9 holes and missed about 4 make able putts during the round. One guy even said during the round that he always dreamed of hitting his drive as far as I was hitting mine. Apparently when I straightened out my slice I discovered I was hitting it quite far. Thank you! If you are ever in the Portland area please let me know and I’ll buy your round of golf and your round of beers. Cheers!

    Nice one again Danny. I just got my handicap (18...no surprise!!!) and thanks to your tutorials I am starting to strike the ball better and lo and behold the odd 'golf shot'. My slice is much improved and I notice when I am very relaxed and warmed up I can hit quite straight drives. But when the pressure comes on (out of bounds right on 11 and 12) my booming slice comes back into play. I will stick to the drills you gave us and I look forward to sending it out over the woods to the right and drawing it back into the middle of the fairway. Thanks again for the really clear instruction and I will keep you posted. Michael from Ireland.

I messed up completely forgetting your 5 principles. I was so confident with my results after watching your video that by not playing my old habits came back. So this week I am watching your video and practicing in my backyard until I can get to a driving range. I will keep it up until my old habits are good habits. :)
