Yup, this is what I needed to see. I've been working on the "slow at the top, speed at the bottom" feeling for a while and it has changed my game tremendously. Obviously, I still need to work on it but I'm glad to know that I'm on the right path. Appreciate your simple explanations and demonstrations!

Clay, this has been one of the most helpful drills for me to fall back on when the swing goes astray. Thanks for the good tips!!

[domenicmorfea]

I have been working on my iron shot for a while now, Your explanation Clay is fantastic, After watching your video I have adjusted my swing to create more lag and have never hit the ball so solid and long and of the centre of the face so consistently, thanks heaps great video.

Clay thank you for this video. This is one of the things I struggle with especially being a shorter hitter and when I try to muscle it, it gets worse. Cant wait to try it at practice and take it to the course.

Thank you so much.

This is a great video.. I've been trying this form for years and finally I found the correct way on this channel. Do you have a video for the driver? Thanks!

[philipgriffith]

Best lag video I’ve seen! Another great video which is usable.

[tyleraustin]

You are already relatable, but I like to think of you as Luke Wilson in Old School and before I know it 90 minutes have passed! Joking aside, your approach to teaching has helped my understanding more than I could have hoped for. This video in particular has made something that has plagued my nightmares easy to understand and feel. Thank you Sir!

[Parrott]

Okay now finally someone has found a way to explain this in a manner I can progress to. I have tried to force lag by trying to feel my wrist remain set in the downswing instead of just slowing down the momentum as you explained and letting natural forces get me there. Great video!

Golf is like being a Jedi, you gotta start as a kid!
I just went to the range for the first time in 3 years and I was crushing balls out the park with me Titleist 905s! I don’t have to practice because I started when I was 11!

[stephengibbons]

Your videos are great and super helpful. Thank you!

[jeffmartin]

I think this is the tip that will get me out of my recent slump

[Peter-dfip]

Clay, I have been enjoying your video as a novice. I am working on compression and lag and wondering if you would display on your tracking system the attack angle. I find it very useful in my training and it would be interesting to see what yours are for each shot. Thanks for your consideration.

Great video Clay . Bought your DVDs 15 years ago . LOL

[yudawicaksanaputra]

This my problem for many years and your video solved it. This is the most important secret in golf thats many instructor cant explain as well as you. Thanks and keep sharing.

[keithsimpson]

Clay, I been swinging with the lag you have been showing with good results. I video taped my swing and my left hand would be in front of my right leg with club shaft horizontal. Making solid impact and straight shots but not getting the distance I think I should. Actually having to one club up for my shots. Have you got any pointers that would help me?

[goldenboy]

What's your opinion on using those lagshot clubs for practice at the range? The ones with a very flexible shaft.

[JarrenC]

Dang Clay! You bulkin up?! Looking ripped!

[mikerodrick]

Hi Clay; I don't have a problem creating lag or holding it. My issue is where to release it. Is it at impact or after? My strikes are inconsistent & sometimes fat. Is that due to early release? Thanks.
