Appreciate the follow up to a great video lesson.

I’ve watched the Danny Maude video dozens of times since it’s release, cut out all other nonsense and concentrated on loading my shoulder and spinning my right forearm down, it’s transformed my ball striking for the better 👍

The danny maude/pete cowen video literally changed my golfing life. Every struggling golfer should watch it multiple times

[ivwshane]

Thanks for the explanation! What you addressed was exactly the question I came away with after watching the cowen video.
I think the biggest problem amateurs and high handicappers such as myself face when watching all the golf videos on YouTube is that there are different swing theories being taught and no one ever says which one they are giving you tips for. So people like myself end up mixing techniques and just having a bastard of a time trying to get a decent swing going.
For me the Peter cowen method seems to make sense and is not only simple enough to execute but it matches my style/coordination. With other swing styles I cannot consistently swing with my body correctly in the right sequence and I end up early extending and duffing the ball.

An excellent video to explain the differences and potential benefits/drawbacks of the Pete Cowen swing method.

[jasonbourne]

Wow! You did an excellent job of explaining Pete Cowen’s system. Gave lots to think about in them of its advantages and disadvantages. I do much better with L to L.

[bankscam]

Great information . This seems a good method for people with low flexibility and trouble timing the swing . Thanks so much .

[marcf.]

Takes lots of practice but wow when u figure it out it's a game changer

[johncreet]

Thank you for explaining this. You addressed a number of things that I had become confused about regarding these two release patterns.

[josephescalante]

Appreciate the additional breakdown and commentary.

I found the Pete Cowan and Danny Maude videos 6 weeks ago. The swing has totally transformed my game. My body timing and shaft position is now near spot on every swing. Getting on my left side is much easier. I absolutely love it and before I play I watch a few minutes of the video on my phone.

I think there is a negative to this method. You will not see the distance from a normal taught method. My distance fell off about 5 yards each club but my dispersion was much better.

Iv been using this 7 iron thru wedges this year. I love it, iv gone from hitting a slice and no distance control, to straight on the line I want with far more consistent distance. And the ability to choose whether to draw or fade just by opening or closing face. Just need to sort out my long game now. Haven’t figured out how to use it with my driver

[davidbuchanan]

Interestingly Clay Ballard (on YT) teaches something that looks very similar (and he also explains things in a clear and easy manner). I tried to adopt it for a few months last year, it definitely works (and the sensation of compressing the ball is absolutely evident), but you need to need to be prepared to have a full and committed lower body turn. I’m 65 and found it required just too much effort to sustain; you also need to be reasonably supple (don’t recommend with bad back or other injuries). Now if was 35 or 40 again..

[grahamjones]

Agree with your thoughts at end. i am a senior that started golf late in life But been a good all round sportsman and athletically strong
But i do hit it low and only average distance but very straight even with long clubs and most importantly my bad shots are not wild hooks or slices! which is why ive got down to 5hcp at 63yo, now if i can only get 20 more yards!

[TedInoue]

Thanks that's a good refresher for that session. I have to watch it over and over. As a left handed golfer who golfs like a right handed golfer, my left hand dominates my swing so my natural tendency is to use the left arm like I'm doing a tennis backswing. This often results in horrible hooks because my right hand is so loose that my left hand closes the club face through impact. With the swing feelings in this video, I remember to fully engage the right hand, preventing that hook and sending the ball right to the target. It makes a huge difference. Today, in the front nine, I forgot about the right hand and shot a miserable 44. On the back, I remembered the right hand and finished that nine with a 38. The only two bogeys on the back were when I got lazy and forgot to use the right hand again!

[auldmart]

Thank you. This cleared up a lot of confusion I had regarding what was right for me.

[uvrays]

I remember something I read long ago. The writer said that the distance you get in the golf swing was dependent on the sharpness of the angle between the upper and lower right arm and how long you hold that angle before contact. When I viewed the Maude video I died myself just what do you gain from moving the elbows. The almost universal answer for the lead arm is inaccuracy. I also remembered that all the classic golfers emphasized using the trail forearm as the source of power. So I decided to keep both elbows exactly where they were while keeping the wrists immobilized with the hand wringing action. I interpreted spin the forearm down to mean spin it around the elbow down into the ball. Wow!

[shnsn]

When doing the "spin the arm down" technique the strike is very solid and it's easy to compress the ball. However for me, the ball tends to pull left or slightly hook, as the body pivot left is "automatic". Been working on swing path that is more "cut swing" to get shot to go straighter.

[DANEBONY]

Been struggling with a bad slice lately after changing my grip. Had a few hits after watching this and hit every shot dead straight. I’ll need to try it out on all my clubs but definitely looks promising.

Great video, I watched the original video posted by Danny Maude when he was getting a lesson from Pete Cowen and I have to say even Danny looked perplexed at what Pete was trying to teach. For me, this technique is probably too complicated for about at least 95% of golfers. YouTube is a wonderful place to learn about the game of golf, but can also be detrimental to ones game.
