In today's video I'm going to share the BEST ball striking tip I've ever received. It's inspired from a tip in Ben Hogan's classic, Power Golf.
The trail arm plays a crucial role in the golf swing, yet many amateur players get it completely wrong.
The proper action of your arm get your club on plane, creates forward shaft lean at impact, and ensures you rotate through the shot for maximum power.
In today’s lesson I'll show you a simple drill that will help you get the proper action in your right arm.

▶︎ ABOUT ZACH ALLEN ◀︎
Hi I'm Zach, thank you for visiting my channel. My goal here is to help you play the best golf of your life while having as much fun as possible!
I'm a PGA-certified golf instructor and have been coaching since 1997. I've been named a Golf Digest “Best Young Teacher,” a GolfTips Magazine “Top 25 Golf Instructor,” and Southern California PGA's Teacher of the Year. I've worked with golfers of all ages and levels, from 4-year-old beginners on up through touring professionals. My students have included nationally-ranked juniors, touring pros, celebrities, and CEOs, but wherever you're at on your golfing journey, my goal is always the same… to help YOU play your best golf!
I started playing competitive golf at a young age, ultimately reaching #3 in the California junior golf rankings – just behind another promising young golfer named Tiger Woods. I also played collegiate golf at the University of Southern California and professional golf on the Omega Asian Tour.
I work with students in-person at my studio in Valencia, CA, and teach golfers all around the world through my YouTube channel and on my website: ballstrikingblueprint.com. Thanks for stopping by and drop me a comment if you have any questions or would like to get in touch!
Thank you Zach. Many golfers may already have this movement in their muscle memory from childhood without knowing it. Attempting to skim a flat stone on surface of water with underhand throw mimics exactly the trail arm (and hip!) action in golf downswing.
What do you mean "Grab the ground?"
Great illustration of right side dominance (for right handers). Question- where should the left elbow be pointing at address? Thanks. ????
I kinda stumbled on tucking my right elbow in last season on my own. My swing was just to wide open and I wasn't generating any power. I can't remember what tipped me off to try tucking my elbow in, but whatever it was has now been confirmed by your video that I am onto somthing game changing. I'm very excited to get my 2024 season underway after my shoulder surgery gets fully recovered. Thx for the help!
Shot 89 after watching this… 105 average
You’re a dork
I have been using your right elbow/arm set-up for about 6 months because of a rotator cuff issue. I learned how to hit my ball straight again and with much more power and distance. After many months of worse and worse pain, finding a rotator cuff was now completely detached, I had surgery on January 16th, a couple of months before my 74th birthday. I am in the healing process and soon to be more and more into the physical therapy part. I can't wait to get back in shape and out on the golf course. I WILL STRICKTLY ADHERE TO YOUR TIP as I get back ready to hit my age.
Thank you for the great Video…..only wish I had seen it a year ago
Jeff
That’s why righties should play lefty, and vice versa.
Great Video, As a college golfer it’s always simple things that can change major things in the golf swing. I was too worried on my grip and i started implementing a wrong elbow set up. Now i start hitting the ball straight again!
Excellent advice bro
It was ben hogans magic elbow not anyone elses ,find your own way
Homer Kelly was a Boeing aircraft engineer from Seattle and wrote the Golf Machine…It is a book of mathematical and geometric laws principals and theories which is for the most part unreadable as it relates to the golf swing…I bought the book as a junior golfer as well and after 2 or 3 pages I tossed it…When Homer passed away his most famous disciple (Bobby Clampett) had no one to explain the book and his career fell very far short of where it should have been…There are far easier books/theories/methods to follow than Homers book imho…With that said he was a very nice man…I met him and he never pushed his ideas onto anyone…But he left behind a very very difficult read…Good pointers though that you are giving here in your video…Best wishes and good luck to all…
I tried to ridden it.
That is funny I felt that right elbow… I hadn’t played in months, finding that power again was all in that elbow… I golf regularly always trying to tweak the swing
100 awesome video and this is exactly what you need to do
Freddie couples disagrees
nice video…. i realizer that the golf swing is just a hinge. That is why machines with hinges hit it perfectly every time.
you sir are correct. I've been playing golf for three years and just broke 70.
Hogan had (by description of his mentee Ken Venturi) very long arms. Could his bending of the Right elbow have been caused by these knuckle dragging arms? What is you have short arms? To keep the trail elbow bent would require a Will Zalatoris like bend. We all know what that did to his back.
Moe Norman called it sunny side up for the trail arm.
Same old same old using the Pros name to sell your craft!! Not going to fly!!
hi, i cant seem to find the thumbnail image of hogan used on this video. Can you help me find out where it originates? thanks
Alex Elliot just put this same information out using all your info acting like it was his
Wtf!!!?
