A great drill for a wally like me who's left elbow collapses straight after impact, and this the follow through is vertical and weak- many many thanks from a beginner !! 🙂

[billhrank]

I tried this yesterday on the practice range. This drill is soooo good for improving contact-distance-accuracy. Thanks for the clear and precise explanations.

[andislane]

This is a beautiful drill! "The club is transported by the body." Perfect!

[georgetinwick]

Yeah, you guys and AMG guys agree on how this insightful body action information works to get that beautiful hand and arms extension after impact in the follow-through finally 🎉 it seems like very few teachers of the game actually know what their talking about as to how this complex move actually works You Guys and AMG GUYS are like a breath of fresh air in the dirty cluttered world of useless professional teachings Tks Tks Tks 😊

[Snowboardjedi]

Thank you! I was working on a similar feel and this drill took it to the next level! Shot my lowest score in quite a while after just one practice!

[ynnck]

You deserve more subscribers. Thanks for the content and free help.

[davidfraser]

This is probably the most important drill in the game of golf.

[rantsfromthesofa]

I like drills that I can practice both on the range and at home.

[jmm]

This is a wonderful drill, Kerrod. Would this be used for both irons and woods? I can tell it just feels like it's going to help tremendously. Thank you!

[richardg]

What is the brand of your club with the copper color?

[younglian]

Very useful practice drill . Thank you for this video.

[denniskeil]

Hello, great Video and well explained. I have long had the problem that my wrists are faster than my body rotation. With the irons it now works quite well. Do you use the same technique with the woods? It seems to me that when I use my wrists with the woods, I hit better balls.

[justinsmith]

Would it be better to start the drill in an ideal impact position with hips turned 45 degrees to target? Or is there a reason that he's starting in a regular closed address position?

[robertcuomo]

Problem is you can still come over the top just rotating your torso. So how do come from the inside avoiding that issue?

[yup]

Is the face close or open at straight arm position?

[josejaimefelixgarciagarcia]

I watched mcllroy’s follow through and his arms crosses, i cant do it. How?

[liwang]

I can straight my arms pretty good when doing it slowly, but whenever I do full swing, I just can’t do it anymore

[magnuscroify]

I know this is what I want to look like AFTER I've hit the ball, but what is happening during the downswing/impact to cause chicken winging in the first place??

[edwardgibstein]

Great, except why keep the head staying locked in the eyes down position? As you reach for the club with your trail arm/hand on the down swing, you naturally rotate your chest and head. Why not rotate the head earlier, which can only help the rotation of the body in sync with the club, and make it easier to have that straight/close arms position you are teaching.

[mikerodrick]

2 issues with this drill as compared to the real swing. 1st, for most recreational golfers, keeping the head in the position you demonstrate will prevent them from turning their chest through impact & causes the arms to fold or into a chicken wing. Another issue can be too much grip pressure which causes tension in the arms which won't allow the arms to fully extend through impact. The head has to remain still & behind the ball but not locked downward towards it. The head has to be able to rotate toward the target from a stationary position or the torso will stop turning exactly as the body rotates around the spine in a stationary position. Obviously this is assuming that the correct posture is maintained. If you feel that this explanation is incorrect, please reply so that I'm not teaching myself bad habits. Thanks much!
