Wow man… You’re REALLY trying to help us! You’re the G.O.A.T. When it comes to UA-cam golf teachers. I’ve learned from them all and watched them all and lessons like these (with the visual illustrations and easy relatability) are what has made you my favorite! Keep it up man! Cheers 🍻!
Bingo. Just what I teach my students. This is a fantastic video and once you understand this concept, the golf swing becomes a lot easier and everything makes more sense. Great job, Chris.
Well done Chris, I was going to say how good this demonstration/lesson video is… but the other comments have already covered it! In all my years in golf, you remain the top golf coach I’ve come across! 👏👏👏
For someone getting back into the game while also having trailing wrist pain this is a fantastic drill to do for wrist mechanics - will help monitor what angles they are and where the strain is coming from, exactly what I was looking for thank you. - New sub
Chris, great video the explanation was spot on and made sense to me. I struggle with a hook and realized I was to far inside the slot at parallel. This little drill has helped me tremendously! Been a subscriber for awhile now and get better using your instructions!
Great video as usual - love the getting into the spot - i now do that on the backswing and downswing - also love turning the club over to feel like a hammer 😊🙏🏌🏼♂️
Wow such perfect insite, my favorite is checking the position of the club face on the pump drill. If your wrist is flat or slightly bowed your off to good scores!!
Great video ..drills and visuals Chris as always ...when you were turned the club used it like a hammer remined me of Peter Cowens axe drill he does ...keep up the outstanding work
Chris great video, can you please break down the next step, from the ‘zone’ to impact position?!! After videoing my swing I’ve found I’m not lifting back heel and turning my waist and hips towards target at “impact” enough. Cheers
If the game was ever made easy, no one would play. This is why they haven't increased the size or the ball in over 124 years. If the ball was as big as a basketball, I would probably never miss getting my club on the ball. With today's conventional ball, I typically have to take 7 or 8 swipes at it to make contact. When I first started it was as high as 30 swipes but I've really improved since watching this channel and can almost guarantee that within 10 swings I will hit the ball. Not to brag or anything. It just goes to show hard work pays off. One day I will hit the ball nearly every time, just like a pro. Thanks
Chris, I have one question, which is, how far apart are the alignment rods from the toe one to the outside alignment rod ? Great visual concept . Thank you!!
Chris: Great visual with the slot "lanes" -- question for you as it relates to the longer clubs as the shaft gets longer and the swing arc gets more shallow like for driver and woods, would that "lane" that you created with the alignment sticks be angled a little more from the inside rather than parallel to the ball-to-target line? Meaning, for the longer clubs wouldn't the slot position be a little more angled slightly from the inside to avoid getting too steep especially with the longer shafted clubs?
You also DON’T use TWO hands to hammer a nail. So, … is the impact position mostly RIGHT hand? 🤔 Or as Ben Hogan said, “I wish I had THREE right hands” ☝🏻 I’ve been focusing on the LEFT arm (esp in the backswing), and a FLAT LEFT wrist. Should I be focusing on the EIGHT hand, as if hammering into the back of the ball?
I don’t agree.The face of the right hand is the same as the club face. Based on what is being shown here the side of the hammer will be hitting the ball.
Excellent golf coaching, as always. However! Not such good hammer training. Hit a nail with a hammer on an arc and you will bend the nail every time. You DO need to hit it flat for the first few strikes to get it half way in and straight before adopting a longer arc to drive it home. Pretty unimportant really.

Probably the best explanation I’ve seen on this topic. Can’t wait to apply it on the range. Thank you

This is a really well explained concept of "the slot" thank you.
this is the drill I have been looking for to get more into the slot and stop casting. Thank you for demonstrating this in such excellent detail!
Very creative - good visuals - Swing hammer time - I did a drill like this with a standard club to push a pole
Briliant!! The green are did it for me!! Thank you so much!!
perfect video man. Great and simple example of correct swing path and club head control 💪🏻
Wow such perfect insite, my favorite is checking the position of the club face on the pump drill. If your wrist is flat or slightly bowed your off to good scores!!
best swing thought for me ever. Thank you!
This was a very clever and succinct video. Nice work!
Love these tips and explanations Chris. It makes so much sense. Thanks
Great to hear!
Great video ..drills and visuals Chris as always ...when you were turned the club used it like a hammer remined me of Peter Cowens axe drill he does ...keep up the outstanding work
How good was that video, hats off to you, Chris, so so so simple explanation, Darran
Glad you liked it Darran! We will keep them coming 😀
Great video Chris. Thank you. 👍😎🇦🇺

Very well explained thank you.👍
In the slot! Need a video about the process after the slot zone.. Great vid

wow really good examples and instructions thanks
Thanks for the great explanation
Totally understand the issue of coming over the top and yet get just as confused why coming from the inside is not only okay but desired!
Well done Chris 👏 😊
Great video. Question. Does the L to L drill with both elbows pointing down also create ideal impact?
excellent video Chris, great visual and the grip test is nice also
Glad you enjoyed it David
Great Advice tips
Great insight again

Muito bom ! Very nice. Congrats.
That's a really good video.

Oh yes this is the great Pete Cowen's axe drill from many moons ago! I think bar none the most important fundamental drill of them all.
The flat portion of the hammer head is very surprisingly called the FACE. 😀
It’s hammer time, BOOM, POW, WHAM!!!!
Shawn Clement teaches the same thing, it works!
Rubbish idea.
I was just waiting for a full swing into the club...
You also DON’T use TWO hands to hammer a nail.

Strangely as it is the flat surface of the hammer on a ball pein hammer is not pein thats the rounded (ball) part.
👌#hammertime
Always practice off a tee or a broken tee even better to promote a less steep strike (swing).
Great analogy
How do you think of these terrific examples? This illustration provides a wonderful explanation.
You better tee off with that thing before the end of this video!
A J Bonar explanation regurgitated.
