Hi Alex, There are lots of people out there on KZitem who claim to offer 'game changing' tips. However, this video was a REAL game changer for me. I now realise that, for the past 43 years, I have misunderstood the shoulder turn. I had one session at the range after watching this and then took the technique to the course and bingo, the light came on. Thank you. 👍

Thanks for the short swing videos. Approx 4 years ago I was playing off 14 with a short swing and got seduced by playing partner comments re how much further / better I'd hit id with a full swing. Well after 31/2 years of frustration and not enjoying golf, handicap had reached 19 and I decided to try and "rediscover" my old swing. There were not too many sites that spent any time on short swing golf and how to optimise it and I came across this website by chance. While still a work in progress, my handicap index is now back to 15 and I'm starting to hit better irons off my shorter swing. Videos like this realy help and I hope to continue improving my ball contact and power optimisation without having to overswing again. Keep up the great work of simplifying the golf game so that more people can not just play to their potential but can really just enjoy playing the game.

This video addressed two swing fads I got caught up in - Stack and Tilt and the Nick Faldo preset drill. The Faldo drill has me presetting my wrists as the first move in the take away and swinging down the line, which works great but it is difficult to get any tempo when you stop to hinge the wrists in the take away. The stack and tilt inside move causes different problems, namely hooks and over draws, sending the ball left because of the single plane swing. Your video addresses pieces and parts of my faults and critiques both of my swing faults in a way that no other video has done before. I would love to hear your thoughts on whether we should be down the line in the take away like Faldo, or taking the club more inside like S&T.

I have been looking at stack and tilt lately as a way to get solid contact on my irons. As an old guy, I just don't seem to be able to get my timing down with shifting weight and making big turns, plus I don't want to be practicing all the time. Golf would be much more fun if when I go to play I could depend on getting good contact on the ball and some decent distance. I like the method you're demonstrating.

i love the common sense and desire to simplify which you are extraordinarily good at. I do want to complicate your discussion of the backswing a little bit (as a fellow coach). I think you want to resist the idea of a tllt in the backswing in favor of the more accurate idea of a side bend. A tilt can be accomplished by moving the left shoulder towards the ground and by itself that does nothing to load any relevant muscle group. The key idea is a side bend which is a reduction in the distance between left shoulder and hip while not fundamentally lowering the pelvis much if at all. If the pelvis is moved closer to the ground it is through left knee bending. So the feeling is more of a crunch (left sided crunch) than a tilt which is very important because it maintains so much more of the overall structure of the body. The forward tilt at address is replaced by a combination of extension and a left side bend. That is what your swing illustrates perfectly. And it is why the backswing looks so centered. I would also add that it is not enough to side bend; it matters when in the backswing you do it in order to load the muscles and to extend them on the right side of the body. A golfer can usually sense the right time by trial and error. If it is too early as it is some rehearsals, you won't feel any loading of the muscle group; and if it happens too late much the same occurs and one has to fight to secure dynamic balance. I love the overall idea that rather than thinking of backswing as a turn or a rotation of any sort, the look which seems to be a rotation or turn is really the collateral consequence of winding up that is a kind of coiling or what Pete Cowen describes as a spiral staircase. it is the best way to achieve 90+ degrees of shoulder 'turn' or better thought of as having your back facing slightly to the right of the target and creating an appropriate hip movement and creating hip depth which is very important as well. But the movement must be dynamic which just means it is not about hitting a position, but about loading up muscle groups and creating potential energy. keep up the good work. where are you teaching these days if I may ask

I CANNOT EMPHASIZE ENOUGH how important this concept is. You will never, ever, generate club head speed with your arms. I used to watch my dad hit balls and was AMAZED how the ball EXPLODED off the the club head with just a TINY back swing! But you've got to have a supple grip and start moving your momentum forward BEFORE you complete the back swing. You swing with your HIPS!! NOT YOUR ARMS. You're arms are along for the ride, okay?

Are you playing right handed? So your right leg is trail leg?

After experimenting with Dechambeau's ideas for the past six months, I have managed to reduce the number of variables to zero. Basically, my golf swing is now just a setup position - I never actually even attempt to hit the ball. Haven't hit a bad shot in those six months and am enjoying golf again, although I'm finding that it's not very good value for money. Also, I am struggling to find playing partners as my local club have introduced a 'time-out' rule over how long my 'shots' are allowed to take. It seems as though there will always be haters against those who discover 'the secret'.

Well that is good to hear and I hope you find folks to play with. Maybe work on refining the process a little

Hey so Mike Austin had a great drill for this: slip a rope through an eye hook or the like at floor level (think jump rope) and pull the rope back and forth through feeling the hip and shoulder turn.

Yes I have seen that. Like the lawnmower feel. I do see though that when many folks try that, the trail arm just pulls back too far behind getting stuck

A short swing "looks" like a short swing. Most people are looking at the club and hands , and not the shoulder rotation.

Well said. But even if the player struggles to get rotation, it's not end of the world at all if jnow some tweaks.
