Seriously... how can you not like Rory... easy spoken, awesome golfer, who exemplifies class and the honour of the game...

Absolutely amazing that we get a free DRIVER lesson from Rory and his life long coach! Big thanks to Rory and Michael Bannon!

[MrBrokentowels]

That teacher is amazing. Didn’t feel the need to be heard or shine. Kept everything simple and concise.

[zacharylockhart]

Hats off to the interviewer. Perfect engagement with Rory / Coach, and steered the question path well and did not interrupt or over talk.

[anthonypapa]

Rory is a class act. Always willing to share some of his skills to help others play better golf.

That take away he talks about at the end is so important. Both Nicklaus and Palmer insisted all of their careers that the first 2 to 4 inches going back is SO IMPORTANT. Nickaus even said it was everything.They never explained why however. But that is where the "connection" (arms, shoulders, & body) is established just as Rory points out. And if you do not establish it there it is almost impossible to get back. That's how you take your range game to the golf course. When you stay "connected" much less timing is needed in the swing. Get those big body trunk muscles to start it back, not your arms and shoulders. Drag them along for the ride. I like to think of it as from the bottom -up (just over my belt line), not the top-down (arms and shouilders). And you will develop a touring pro swing. It may seem "tighter" but you won't be shorter. You'll be both long and straight.

Rory's swing is one of my favorites these days.

[flyersboy]

the tip about the take away has helped my driver swing like no other tip before. wow

[anthonywillis]

When Rory speaks on driving there is a yearning desire to listen! 👂

Pure physics that's near perfection = Rory McIlroy.
So impressed with this man's ability to hit the ball so far.
Same coach all his life. Class.

I've warmed up to this young man over the years. He is always decent, humble and always learning... His friendship with Tiger is also a revealing aspect of his enormous gift to relate. A true golf hero and is right on time to keep the game rolling forward.

I was expecting Rorys coach to be slick and talking very technical ehh nah. Aim, width boom simple as that! Love it

One of the best drivers of all time. This was great. Thank you.

[therx]

Why would 197 people give this video a thumbs down 🤷‍♂️. Best driver of all time.

[brianb]

What a great guy. Honest and open sharing great golf info to help others. Thanks Rory.

[jabjamar]

Rory has a video on how he hits bunker shots. I now could care less if I end up in the sand, although GIR was the plan. Lost all fear. He just says it as if this is what’s my best preferred method and explains why even though he can do them all. In this Video Rory shows why he has it all and willing to share. Thanks to Coach as well.

[devonshire]

I feel like I just got a personal lesson from the master himself...thanks so much guys.

[max-andrewmcmillan]

I was hoping they would talk about Rory's ignition, the dip, the sit down, what ever you want to call it, cos Rory's is magical.
