I have been doing this ever since I’ve seen this video and I have increased my pure shots by 90%, lowered my handicap also. It’s my little secret that I’m not telling my friends lol.

Thanks again Tom for your great lesson advice. This has worked for me in hitting the grass after the ball. Another thing that me helped with this was keeping my right elbow (right handed) tucked close to my torso. Would you do a lesson that covers where both elbows should be in the back swing and follow through swing? Thanks again for your always helpful advice.

This tip is one of the most valuable to help you hit every iron shot clean and avoid fat shots.
I’ve also tried putting the ball much further ahead in my stance, which allows me to make more effort to shift my weight and make solid contact

Thanks so much for your tip

This is wisdom and l am always impressed with your teachings. Thank you very much for the short, straight to the point videos.

started getting into golf 3 weeks ago and just played my first 9 holes, shot 50, hopefully this helps 👍🏽

Excellent explanation and demonstration Tom on hitting ball then turf! I have experimented with your recommendation and it does work if the body keeps rotating through the ball. If your body stalls, you'll still hit the ball "fat!" Always find value in your videos Tom! Keep up the good work!!

Hi Tom, I've tried this before but I only looked one ball width ahead. It worked really well. Is this just a drill or do you look there when playing golf? Also, do you look at the same spot when playing fairway woods etc? Thanks!

Great content as always Tom, I tried this concept before but it was prior to your tips I have followed on the golf swing. I am going to combine this with the other excellent information I've gotten from you and see if I can 'take it up a notch!' Salute to you sir!

[nafear]

I am going to try yet and let you know what I think of this drill

[nickarmstrong]

Did this today before watching this video, thought maybe I was doing something abnormal. Video reassured me that it wasn’t. Never hit the ball so straight or far

Hello, You said the low point is linked to the left shoulder (for right handed man) with a left arm extended. I have already heard that it is linked to the sternum.
Could you explain please ?

[michaelsherry]

Nice video Tom, maybe it will stop me hitting from the top if I don't focus on the ball 👍

[villaesport]

I swear I have been doing exactly what you taught in the video since a long time but for that matter when I tell people where I look before hitting, they call me insane 😂

[theavitaravitar]

I found this out by experimenting. Now the world knows how to hit pure shots. lol.
