I'm a Korean, Just like you, I practice swinging the ball with the toe of my left foot. I also try to maintain a hand first without loosening my left hand during impact. You are a wonderful swing choch. I cheer for you. Good shot.
What helped me alot with the problem off added loft/spin to my drives was forward pressing the hands at address quite similar to the position they wud be at impact , and just swing from there, big difference!!
If you don't have an impact bag, then I'd suggest making practice swings with a super slow downswing lasting around 15 seconds. Making sure your feeling your body turning. Overtime, after hundreds of slow swings, speed it up gradually until you can start hitting balls. Going suuuuper slow makes a big difference.
I looove the impact bag! I have an archery target bag, and a couple drivers I don’t use. So if they get damaged it’s no big deal. Just tried the exercise with one, and it’s great.
I agree 100% with this! I would suggest to any you must have a device like prgr with your speed training. You can not progress with out measuring it. I always thought i was one swing thought from 300yrds. The prgr showed me i was 20mph away from 300yrd! When swinging at 90mph reality kicks in. Speed training will change your swing and you will go from 90 to 100mph plus!
The most difficult thing for me is always to maintain the loft of the club stable and low while also having at least 4 degrees of attack angle. Hitting up on the ball while keeping hands bit ahead at impact. This is the most challenging thing to translate to body/arms/hands mechanics...
My tip is to address a couple inches behind the driver and half an inch inside. Then just try to hit this spot as the swing low point. Nailed drives incoming!
Nice, Take this to the extreme and set up about 18 inches behind the ball. Tee it real high and absolutely let it fly. It goes all over the place, but just occasionally you'll bomb one 300!! The Mickleson.
This was perfect for my driver issue!! Totally fixed it😂. I was having the high spin not so long drives ,as well as slice . The very same issue as you . This fixed it ! Awesome video. Thanks. Straight powerful long shots.
Man I'm having the same issue! I've been hitting 4000 spin rate with 2 degree up attack angle and even with 157 ball speed I normally hit 260 but I should be hitting 280 at least if with 2000 spin rate. I had to flick my wrist like what you did at the start of the video to hit better cuz I always hear people say that club go ahead of hands! Your video seems like a really good tip and I'll give it a try tomorrow at the range. Solid content.
Club goes ahead of your hands only in certain situations. Hackmotion reviewed all of th major swings and there are two clear winners. Go look up push draw, and pull fade. It's important to know that the wrists aren't the same for both of these. So figure which is natural and then play that. Unnatural will always be a poor choice if there is a more natural option.
I just had a driver fitting. My swing speed was around 100mph. First 2 things the fitter said is your spin is way too high. Had a push baby fade. And my aoa was terrible. He had me set up like you with a baby step with the left and a big step with the right and changed my shaft. I went from 245 to 265 in about 5 minutes. Going to get a rip stick now
Funny how we all have our individual problems in golf. I have the exact opposite patterns. Too much body, too late with the release, and too little loft at impact. I have to work on exactly the opposite things from this lesson in order to get good launch conditions. Hang back with the body, throw with my hands, and stop my hips racing ahead of my arms.
Senior golf swings can use this if: Backs hold up, balance, neuropathy, & hips handle the stress, spending weeks to train can happen! Seniors would be low hanging fruit in going deeper off tee!
@jchowngolf I can really see that first drill keeping the hands too far in front of the club easily causing a ton of blocked driver shots out to the Right for people not releasing the Driver correctly with the feel the impact bag is giving you. That type of Lag feeling is more for iron shots, right? Too much of that with Driver could lead to big ole’ Blocks.
Yes if the same level of shaft lean with the impact bag happens with the ball it will be way too much, but if a player (like I was) struggles with adding loft, there is no way that player will ever replicate that amount of shaft lean, but they absolutely have to feel that to move the needle. Exaggeration is key, if you’re not exaggerating your desired movement pattern, you won’t change that movement
If you de-loft the club face of the driver at impact, won’t that defeat the purpose of hitting up on it to gain height which is supposed to lower the spin rate for further distance?
@@jchowngolf sorry I meant yours for optimal distance. Your old numbers are similar to mine currently: 101 swing speed, spin rate 4000+. I do not slice, my swing path is 8 degrees in to out but I have been told by a pga pro I have excessive wrist / hand action. My ball flight with my driver is high ( i forget my launch angle numbers ) and drops almost straight down at about 240 yds with little to no roll. My driver is set at 10 degrees nuetral with a 60 gram regular shaft (Callaway Epic).
Great video, even after playing this game for 70 years, one is always looking to improve! Having watched live Ben Hogan and Snead, I soon caught the bug! One question I have is, would you recommend the net you were using?
I don't understand how you don't slice if you have the ball that far forward and keep your hands in front of the club. That sounds like an exact recipe for slicing.
@@rypgolfyes, I’m aware, but what weight are you using? Or are you varying the weight? I have Sasho M’s speed stick but I don’t think the protocol is that great. Hurt my shoulder overdoing it.
If you go full speed and the bag is full of overly heavy stuff then sure. Go slow as I’m showing here and fill the bag up with cushions. Drivers and shafts in general are far more durable than people think
Great content thank you. I am a little confused as you seem to just turn your left hip to start downswing without getting weight onto your left side? Is it because it’s a driver swing and not an iron swing?
I'm so confused pal. I've had 5 different lessons now. Each time something different. The last one earlier this week said to put my hands behind the ball lol....because I over rotate my hips and shoulders and create too much lag in the club. He said I do the opposite of everyone else where they use the hands and arms too much, so now I'm trying to throw the club down and turn less :O Feck, about to give up I think.
I recently got back into playing golf after not playing for over 17 years. Somehow my clubhead speed is 109-111. I grew up playing a lot of sports, mostly baseball so I’m sure that helps. My current carry distance is around 260-279, roll out up to 285-289. I’d like to break that 300 yard barrier
Love the casualness of the backyard, wish you were my neighbor

This is awesome man! I've been thinking about this lately in regards to the driver. Appreciate your content as always.
Glad you liked it 🤙🏻

I heard that before from a little red book. Funny how NOBODY does it cos we all Wanna just swing fast as fuck, lol.
I remember I had 3 lessons with Lee Cox, he is genuinely outstanding. How well he coaches driver is insane
Hi J : you have a fabulous ability to communicate clearly and understandably. Your videos are very, very helpful !
Thank you! Great to hear you’re enjoying my videos
I Get It. I will try it on that approach on my next Range with Driver. I just learned to do similar with Irons and definitely saw 15 + yrds gain.
I looove the impact bag! I have an archery target bag, and a couple drivers I don’t use. So if they get damaged it’s no big deal. Just tried the exercise with one, and it’s great.
Thanks for the tips and explanations.

does the prgr measure spin rate?

What helped me was to lower the club loft a bit. Easier to maintain low spin.
I tried this , it indeed helped the ball speed, but I’m the meantime I started to block my drive to the right.

The video I need. I hit usually between 240-275 but sometimes I crank one past 300 and dont know how or why. Thanks.
Great Drill😊
Paddy H shares the same philosophy 👍
Awesome video, new subscriber
When I try and hold off, ie deloft club, I block it right or sky it as I end up hitting down more
Senior golf swings can use this if:
Backs hold up, balance, neuropathy, & hips handle the stress, spending weeks to train can happen! Seniors would be low hanging fruit in going deeper off tee!

That’s why he moves the ball more forward relatively in his stance. From inside L heel to near his toe
Just a clarification, won’t leading with the hands promote hitting down on the ball thus increasing spin?
Not when the head stays back. Gives you a flatter bottom
Head behind ball at impact to hit up
not at impact, always behind ball...always
That also promotes releasing the club head thru the ball thus more distance. And my wood sounds different too!
Can you share optimal launch angles and spine rates?
All depends on your swing speed and ball speed
@@jchowngolf sorry I meant yours for optimal distance. Your old numbers are similar to mine currently: 101 swing speed, spin rate 4000+. I do not slice, my swing path is 8 degrees in to out but I have been told by a pga pro I have excessive wrist / hand action.

Sorry, I commented before I heard the second part of your explanation.
Hey Coach, what is the weight of your over speed stick?
Hey Kurt! The Rypstick has 8 different weight combinations, all in one stick! Weight totals range from 270 grams to 420 grams.
@@rypgolfyes, I’m aware, but what weight are you using? Or are you varying the weight? I have Sasho M’s speed stick but I don’t think the protocol is that great. Hurt my shoulder overdoing it.
The weight varies during the sessions 👍🏼
this guy knows his sht
Has anyone already tried consistently these tips? please share the result
Hitting that bag seems like a good way to break the shaft?
If you go full speed and the bag is full of overly heavy stuff then sure. Go slow as I’m showing here and fill the bag up with cushions. Drivers and shafts in general are far more durable than people think
If you don't have an impact bag an old car tyre will do also.
Good lesson. Thanks
Great content thank you. I am a little confused as you seem to just turn your left hip to start downswing without getting weight onto your left side? Is it because it’s a driver swing and not an iron swing?
I managed to hit 257 yards at 150 mph ball speed but very rarely
I'm so confused pal. I've had 5 different lessons now. Each time something different.

Feck, about to give up I think.
Definitely finding a good coach is the answer 👍🏼
Get a new teacher.
Where did you get that swing net?
I hate when the video says "link in the description"...then there's no link. 😞
Ball speed? Isn't it clubhead speed?
You're supposed to hit the ball on the way up.
That’s what I have always heard🤷♂️🤷♂️
@@Tom-ok2rhyou can do what he is doing while hitting up on the ball
That's what he's doing. Delofting the clubface while hitting up.
😁👍
Thanks bud!
That’s why keeping the figure 7 is so important.
I prefer 8
Hit further with a slice lol . I’d rather have 250 straight then 290 sliced
You must of had the worst smash factor possible for driver
Why? Explain?
Whatever...
I recently got back into playing golf after not playing for over 17 years. Somehow my clubhead speed is 109-111. I grew up playing a lot of sports, mostly baseball so I’m sure that helps. My current carry distance is around 260-279, roll out up to 285-289. I’d like to break that 300 yard barrier
