0:10gives them immense strike on the ball
0:13and immense power
0:15everybody can learn this yes it does
0:17take time but in this video i'm going to
0:19share with you step by step how you
0:21today can start to begin the process of
0:23achieving that effortless look that
0:26gives you some real good strikes and
0:27some real good distance before i get
0:29into the video look if you're new to
0:30channels from your first lessons of mine

0:36button you get notified every time i
0:37list a video just like this one plus you
0:39never have to remember a thing i'll
0:40always put a downloadable practice guide
0:43in the description box below
0:45so
0:46what do great players what gives them
0:48that effortless look it's super simple
0:50it's a pattern right and i'll show you
0:52what that pattern is and then i'll show
0:54you how you can begin learning it so the
0:56pattern is simply this
0:58the clock the backswing starts from the
1:00ground up it's led the arms are
1:02basically being led by what their body
1:04is doing and i'm going to show you an
1:05exaggerated word so you can physically
1:07see it they're pull using the body to
1:10sling the arms
1:11back into the back swing so that the
1:14arms are always following the body
1:17this way now what's going to bring those
1:19arms down well the lower body in a sense
1:22leads the way and the arms are following
1:25the body they are never look leading the
1:27motion if i do this they'll lead the
1:30motion the way back and if i do this
1:31they lead the motion the way through
1:33that is what looks like
1:34lots of effort the effortless numbs
1:37comes when the body's always leading
1:39that motion
1:40but question is how do you achieve it
1:43and it's not easy you've got to learn
1:45feel so i like to do this step by step
1:48the first stage is look you've got to
1:49use you've got to build this from the
1:51ground up so i need to i need you to
1:53build it from the ground up step by step
1:55i'm going to show you with drive in a
1:56second too so
1:58let's start with the feet on the ground
2:00all i'm going to do is take your club i
2:02want to take a little step to your
2:04back side and then forward all you're
2:06going can do is create a rhythm of this
2:08one two so the feet are close together
2:11one two
2:13one two there's a rhythm notice this at
2:15no stage am i going one
2:17two that's too long it becomes one two
2:21then what i'm going to do is this
2:22what i want you to do now is you're
2:24going to try and keep this going the one
2:26two while simultaneously making a
2:29backswing and as i step here
2:32i want to use that step to help lead
2:35this club
2:37away i'm going to as soon as i put that
2:39foot down i'm going to use the force
2:41to throw my arms just a little bit
2:44upwards while simultaneously stepping
2:46watch
2:47one
2:48two can you see that yeah
2:52one
2:53two
2:54so i've got one
2:56two now some people often maybe see this
2:58is why are you swaying around danny no
3:00this would be swaying yeah i'm not doing
3:03that i'm stepping
3:04yes and my pressure is staying very
3:06centered here right what i'm doing is
3:07i'm going one
3:10two yeah
3:12one
3:13two now i'm organizing this swing can
3:15you see that there now once you've got
3:18that then i want you to imagine that
3:20this club is like a match
3:22so imagine this is a long match with a
3:24little end and what we're going to do
3:26we're going to strike the match
3:29and now what we're going to do is we're
3:30going to add some sound effects to this
3:32because i think auditory cues and stuff
3:34really help you learn this so much
3:35faster and so much better so ready so
3:41still small isn't it
3:45looking from here
3:49and the striking of the match is super
3:51important because when this is angled
3:54forward here a lot of people
3:55misinterpret striking down by going
3:58down
3:59but ultimately look
4:02there's the match coming down and as i
4:04strike it
4:06i'm actually yes i'm alright yes i've
4:07come down the club's gonna strike down
4:09but i'm also working the club look
4:11out of the turf this is what gives the
4:14best players the downward strike on the
4:16ball but shallow divots because they
4:18basically take the club
4:21out of that turf now you're just trying
4:23to kind of feel and match these motions
4:25up
4:28yeah you can almost hear it's like a
4:29little dance isn't it right so start
4:31really small with this okay feet closer
4:34together
4:38and to be honest i hit that too long i
4:40think that too long um yes it's got 130
4:42hours for an eight hour but that's way
4:43too long i don't want you to work on
4:45that's really exaggerating it i want you
4:47to start off super small with us
4:50and gentle just so you can feel that
4:54timing can you see each time i've always
4:58formed the platform
5:01and it's very similar to what you would
5:03do if you were throwing a ball if i
5:04threw a ball look
5:06i'd as i go back
5:08this clubs the legs always going forward
5:10yes it's natural if we don't throw a
5:12ball at us back
5:13and through it's always this stretch if
5:16i play baseball same principle look at
5:18this
5:19there's always this stretch so what this
5:21exercise is doing is training something
5:24that you do naturally anyway okay
5:27but because golf is a static sport we
5:29get sometimes a little bit too static
5:32so
5:33start off like that and then gradually
5:34expand it now what i would do is if we
5:37were in a kind of video here right so
5:39between me and you so we want to speed
5:41up this process but i would literally
5:43camp out there for a little bit get used
5:45to that there get that organization in
5:47and that could be a practice session but
5:49once you're ready to move on then you
5:50start to amplify it up and all you do is
5:53you amplify the amount of force that
5:56this foot puts into the ground here and
5:58then again here
5:59that increases the length of your swing
6:01so it looks a bit more like this
6:03this time
6:09so i'm amplifying it up just a little
6:11bit more still feet close together
6:16and hopefully you start to see this
6:18there we go amplifier 88.5 miles an hour
6:21160 yards now gradually going now all
6:24i'm doing like i said to get longer is
6:26i'm not trying to
6:27turn here all i'm doing is literally
6:30creating my arms throwing those arms
6:32back it's using the body to throw them
6:34back
6:37and i'm forming that platform bit by bit
6:40so
6:41things that you can do to kind of feel
6:42this sometimes grab an alignment stick
6:45if you want to see what that
6:47match is like feel that there look
6:49listen to that noise
6:51hear that whip
6:53and then you could apply look
6:56the
6:57upward motion you could get the feel
6:59just of that
7:03few of them noises
7:05notice the difference so if i was to do
7:07this
7:10not as much to
7:12going striking the match upwards so now
7:14it becomes this
7:21i've always got that platform forward
7:24for
7:25always got the platform sorted before
7:27there's a
7:28smash through impact okay so let's show
7:30you how you can apply this to driver
7:33so same thing with driver clearly with
7:36the driver we want to hit up on the ball
7:38okay
7:39but hitting up on the ball does not mean
7:41this
7:43yeah we still got our match we're still
7:45coming down yeah what we're going to do
7:47though is is the ball now is for further
7:49forward in our stance so as we start to
7:51get to the low point of the arc here
7:53we're going to start hitting up on the
7:54driver not because we're doing this but
7:56because look from here we are now
7:58almost keeping the loft of the driver
8:01down but our
8:02match is going
8:04upwards
8:05that's the technical bit you still need
8:07to organize it with the body not if
8:09it'll work without it so look again
8:15start small maybe
8:18can you see when i'm doing this i've
8:20already formed
8:22my platform
8:23to then work upwards i am not
8:27sure i see a lot or hookers
8:31everything when you step is going
8:33together
8:34learn that feeling we'll show you how
8:35you do this in from a standing position
8:37in a second but learn the feeling first
8:39let's look at the driver it's nice and
8:40small to start with no big ones so
8:43fairly close together
8:47so it won't get up in the air too much
8:49but just there you go so just a tap down
8:52there just to tap just feeling that
8:55sensation and then gradually again it
8:58can feel a bit strange to start with i
9:00gave this to my wife laura actually
9:02earlier today and i'll show you the
9:03lesson at some stage on youtube but you
9:05know it was a tricky thing to get
9:07coordinated but once she got it my god
9:10she could feel the whoosh she said i
9:12could really feel that wash at the
9:13bottom okay so one more time with this
9:18a little bit longer still not huge but a
9:20little bit longer clubhead speed up to
9:22100 miles an hour now bit by bit look
9:24we're starting to get there and all i
9:26would do
9:27is start to ramp that up little bit at a
9:30time okay
9:32so how do you transfer this now to a
9:35standing position well
9:38all you've got to do is you've now
9:40learned in a very extreme way yeah
9:43you've ex you've felt the difference and
9:45you've now got some idea and you don't
9:47rush into this you've got some idea of
9:49how
9:50that those forces are working separate
9:53one two
9:54once you've done that then it's a case
9:56if you can start to get more subtle like
9:59the best players do so what you do is is
10:01clearly what you can do now is it's like
10:03okay i've now got some feeling so what
10:05i'm going to do here is this i'm really
10:07going to feel that this trail side is
10:09really used to push and really get that
10:11club going this way while simultaneously
10:15here now you won't be able to physically
10:16see this when you watch but you'll start
10:18to in a sense see it hopefully in the
10:20rhythm of the swing so again start
10:22really small initially and we'll start
10:25and see how we go
10:29so nice and easy to start with and look
10:31at that so we rack up there from 109
10:34club speed 262 carry and bit by bit now
10:38we'll start to ramp it up and all i've
10:40done to do that is i've just applied
10:42more force so the force isn't good by
10:43the way so it's not using my mass to go
10:45this way i'm literally forcing the club
10:47and swinging my arms up and then got
10:49that feeling of stepping
10:50and then forcing it this way so start to
10:53organize your swing add sound effects to
10:56it so you can kind of help organize it
10:57so you don't have to be stuck in your
10:59head so we can just
11:05and strike the match super super simple
11:08to kind of comprehend to do can be
11:11tricky initially that's why this is
11:12winter here at the moment take your time
11:14with it enjoy it enjoy the process of
11:17learning to coordinate that swing this
11:19next video over here will be a massive
