I use this simple drill to help golfers feel, more control in their takeaway, improved swing shape, and how the ground will help them hit better golf shots. My Swing Catalyst dual plates make this so clear to see how golfers are not in control from the beginning.

@SwingCatalyst This really helped me realise I had a slight sway at the end of my back swing. Thank you so much

@SwingCatalyst My big issue with your videos is that you post too many great ones and I can’t keep up and watch them all. Please slow down and let me catch up. ;)

One of my favourite drills for those golfers who "CAST" the golf club &/or lose their wrist angles to early in their swing... The "Underload/Overload" drill Yes, It will feel weird at first, yes, you will hit some crappy shots, but video your swing to see the difference it makes Then once you've worked on it a little bit, don't exaggerate it as much and you'll start to feel this work more naturally (in time) Give it a go 👊

Tony Gwynn - "Swing the knob" How can this help?: - Less shoulders, more hands - Swing the bat, not your body - Quieter eyes, louder results Try it if you feel long -> You'll feel it quicker and in more control

This is one of the worst swing tendencies to have IMO! Not many recreational golfers succeed in playing good golf with this pattern. But… if this sounds like your swing pattern, here’s how to fix it 👊🏼 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Teaching golfers to generate ground reaction forces earlier in the downswing is critical for helping them maximize the potential horsepower from their lower body. This “golf vertical jump” progression is one of our favorite strategies to help golfers develop a feeling of their legs driving their arms. The goal is not to train physical capacity, but to build an awareness of how and when to push against the ground in the downswing. Full video on Titleist’s YouTube channel.

Tiger showing you how to shift before you turn. You want to do this more with driver than iron off the ball. But with iron there is still a shift towards the target. This will help most golfers have a more neutral swing path especially people who swing out to in.

Here's the putting stroke of Joaquin Neimann. Putt was about 40ft Pay attention to the backswing length vs the through swing length... What's longer? Most recreational golfers that I've helped with putting are the complete opposite. They will typically have a SHORT backswing & quicky ACCELERATE in the downswing, leading to a longer through swing This isn't the way the best putters in the world move their putter Let me show you how to train this. Below is a free Distance Control video for you to help you understand how to improve your distance control via this concept 👇👇👇

Improve Your Takeaway! Do you struggle to get your golf swing started the right way? Chances are, your takeaway isn’t helping! I see a lot of golfers rotating incorrectly in the takeaway, here’s a drill to master it 🔹Too much rotation causes the club to go inside 🔹Put an alignment stick in between the belt loops, don’t max out rotation, but don’t “not rotate” either 🔹During the takeaway, make sure the alignment stick rotates only a small amount 🔹This will help the club move back on plane, & track right up in front of you Give it a go to improve your takeaway 👊🏼

Golfers who swing over the top often struggle to maintain dynamic posture in transition. Sometimes it’s the result of a limitation in mobility or motor control, other times it’s an issue with concept or feel. Dave Phillips discusses on the Me and My Golf YouTube channel.

From wearables to real-time apps, advanced tools are giving Americans more control, better insight, and improved outcomes. At HHS, we’re clearing regulatory obstacles so innovation can thrive. New technologies will help us Make America Healthy Again.

I think this is a fair statement: Golfers - while putting a 30 footer - are consciously reducing anatomical ranges of motion in the many joints and limbs from the hands to the feet - especially when compared to the range of motions used during a 300 yard drive. You WOULD THINK that reducing these anatomical ranges of motion while putting, a better overall control of the face-to-path relationship would emerge. Most golfers would ASSUME that their face-to-path control would be noticeably better on 10 30-footers when compared to their face-to-path control on 10 full powered drives. This HAS TO MAKE SENSE because the rate of closure of the club face on a drive is in the 2500° per second range while the rate of closure of the club face on a 30 foot putt is in the 30° per second range. Well, lo and behold, it does not. And in fact, many high level golfers show better face-to-path control with their driver at 115 mph than their face-to-path control with their putter at 6 mph. So, this begs the question for golf instructors and competitive golfers - in the pursuit of more accuracy from shot to shot, is it wise to attempt to reduce your own personal rate of closure with any club - driver through putter - in the hopes that it will bring “better face-to-path control” which would lead to more accurate shot outcomes? Start thinking. It may mean a lot to your personal journey towards better golf.

Many golfers believe that dialing back their swing speed is automatically going to produce a more controlled, technically sound swing. However, in reviewing motion-capture and force-plate data from elite players like Wyndham Clark, we often see the opposite is true. When we ask golfers to go after it, their data not only looks more athletic, they get a more dependable ball flight.
