To understand it, think of tossing a sphere, swinging a bat or racquet. If you never played any one of these sporting activities before you would certainly a minimum of be able make the movement nearly quickly without driving lessons or guideline.
The reason you could play various other sports well yet have difficulty playing golf is since the ball in all of these various other sporting activities is in movement whereas in golf the ball is static. With a fixed item sitting in front of you, you'll want to attack the object instead of swinging with the object.
The tougher you hit, the tighter you obtain, the a lot more you'll relocate the club off of it's course. Likewise, when you try to hit difficult it causes your arms to bend via effect hence narrowing the swing arc which decreases your swing rate.
There is varying golf direction available. With any luck, after you see this and various other golf driving lessons you see that the legs play an important part in the golf swing. Otherwise, the best gamers in the world would certainly not be using them.
Have to say I really don’t like these “all by numbers” lessons. They have
their place, but obsessing about numbers is not the way forward in my book.
I think the student was getting a bit confused by some of the numbers early
on in the lesson but they undoubtedly helped Mark come up with the swing
thought ‘solutions’ far more easily than by merely observing the shots and
resultant ball flight. A very impressive change made seemingly very easily.
It would be interesting if there was a follow-up video after the student
had played a couple of rounds to see if he’s getting on better now.
Fascinating video. Thanks Mark. Do you monitor how some (you couldn’t do
all) of your clients improve following your lessons?
I enjoy you discussing the many variables that affect a shot. Thanks.
What’s the student’s handicap? He looks pretty good to start…
‘You need to make golf as boring as possible, that’s how you get to scratch”
Just starting to realise that’s exactly right. Quite depressing really….
Are 3 hour lessons normal in the UK?
Great work, amazing how fast the numbers can be moved but I’m assuming it
helps that he’s a better player
Mark, I absolutely love your logical interpretation of what the numbers
mean and how they relate to impact. I really wish you could be my swing
coach.
@ dom blem totally agree with you, but like you said it cannot do any harm
to have a go and see what happens :)
These live lessons are my favorite videos. I have the same issues as this
gentleman and have worked forever on hitting a draw. Not a pull.
Great vid guys, like others have said this is very helpful in giving us
some great tools to try out
“you’re done, goodbye” – lol. Good stuff Mark, more of these please.
That’s very interesting. I have a tendency to get my hands too low (toe
up), but I tend to push my shots! Can that be right?
I think it was the shaft Mark. Wrong kick point = wrong shaft. Haha
Loving these videos, nice to see a coach not trying to have everyone swing
the same
love these
3 hour lesson. Did you go to the pub for a pub lunch half way through?
Really enjoyed this Mark, more please
Just curious why not just flatten the lie of his irons and leave his swing
alone?
Its physics and numbers are essential. This was brilliant. Thanks so much
for sharing Mark.
3 hour lesson, crazy
more of these types of vids please.
Alrite Mark, did I spy a new toy!?, Trackman maybe!?
looks like a holiday in Devon for me next summer.
Loving those..
titleist D3 vs cobra bio cell +
Good stuff mark, loving these vids.
I suffer from a pull/over draw might try what you were saying about raising
the hands.
Keep up the good work!!
