Hi Todd, Alan from Edinburgh. Thanks as always, as a senior golfer this is something I’m trying to incorporate into my swing especially with my long irons. Great drills with a good explanation for each one👍

great video, can you run thru ball position including the flaring of feet and based on what iron you are hitting.. When to play it further up or back..

[johnschwartz]

Excellent video Todd on "ball first" contact. I liked your suggestion of moving the butt end of the club away from the target on takeaway. This would definitely keep the premature wrist hinge to occur. Well Done As Usual Todd!

Hey Todd, Riverton Utah here... Like the 5 minute format and the condensed presentation of 2 or 3 suggestions. Keep em coming.

I thought perhaps it was the camera angle, but the face-on view seems to confirm you were hitting all those iron shots off you lead heel. Don’t know the loft of the club you were using but this seems a bit far forward in the stance. If not, should that be an additional tip for ball first contact?

Today was the first day that I was able to hit the VLS driver! I drug the club on the takeaway, opened my stance, and stopped turning my wrists over!
