I watched the video, practiced the drills 3 of the previous 4 days. Then went out for my first round of the year and had my best driving day in my 25 years of golfing. Thank you Clay.

Brand new golfer here. Three disastrous trips to the range. Then I watched this video, did the drills one night, and the next day I went to the range and was a completely different golfer. This set of drills is magic. Thanks so much for making this video

I'm watching this after a pretty bad day at TopGolf.

I'm a golf "teacher" or "coach" (at best) to my children, family, and friends. I am certainly no "pro". But by watching Clay Ballard's videos I have not only become a much better striker myself, but I finally feel like I'm teaching my "students" properly. I never realized how all the little details in each part of the swing, when polished, can have such a tremendous effect on the enjoyment of the game. Using these tips I helped a woman who gave up on her woods/drivers fifteen years ago. She called herself Margaret Thatcher, the "Iron Lady" because she couldn't hit a driver to save her life. I can't explain the look on her face when she hit her #1 wood 170 yards. I got to share in that rebirth of her love for the game. Thanks Clay.

This was exactly what I needed to improve my swing. So clear, step by step and do-able for me. I am an older player, 72, with less mobility than I would like, but this instruction can be done even by me! Thank you so much! I'll check out your other videos with great interest and anticipation.

I’m 22 years old and I am a cancer patient, I was in the hospital for a month and had a central line that prevented me from golfing, and been going through cancer treatments since the winter, I still ended up going about 30-50 times this year and it’s my first year golfing, I really enjoy golf it keeps me happy and inspired, idk what I’d do if it was never created, golf honestly means the world to me,

[edwardbalogh]

This is one of the best swing mechanics videos I've seen...and I'm 76. I particularly have never heard the "squat" move mentioned. Instead, the mantra was always "keep your head still"....nice job!

[bobbystacy]

Such an amazing drill and setup. I’ve been playing for about 6-8 months after around 25 years of not even swinging a club. I felt I had a decent grasp on my swing, then watched this and put in the time to do all the reps. Went to the range and put in the reps before even hitting. DEAD STRAIGHT AND 30 YARDS FURTHER!! This will be apart of my warm up every time and will put in the reps every day, even days I don’t play or go to the range!!
Thanks for this drill!! Truly game changing for me!!!

[stantarquinio]

One of the most simplest but effective golf drills provided. I have been struggling for months going through swing changes with a coach trying to start my downswing without coming over the top. Drill after drill I was doing, but nothing would stick. This cured it almost immediately. I have been doing this drill for about 3 months. It has added a missing piece to my swing and everything just clicked. I am down to a single digit handicap and am able to work on fine tuning things. I am so grateful I found this video. I have it saved and do these drills every practice session. Thank you!!!

[chooselove]

I can’t believe it took 30 years for such a good explanation of the golf swing. Now I know what I was doing wrong. Can’t wait to get to range and practice. Thanks a million for this awesome video 👍🙏😃 Stephan

[athens_psvr]

I haven’t played in 4 years. Watched this video, practiced, and finally hit the range with my new clubs. This was the third time I’ve used them and I have to say that my father and I were impressed with the way I was hitting every club I used. We appreciate this simple breakdown.

[davidrodstein]

Helped me a TON!
I’ve been told so much about backswing, shifting weight, follow-through, etc. This video talked about none of that but accomplished it all with simple mechanical drills that create sound fundamentals.

[paulbooker]

Brilliant video, in only 3 days this has helped me totally rebuild my swing, with, thanks to you, fantastic results !

[harshvardhanchaudhri]

Dear Clay, No trainer over the years has been so successful with my swing. After watching this video twice and doing the drills, my success rate in swinging with a 8 and 9 iron went up from 1% to 60%. After more practice in the next two weeks, it jumped from 60% to 100% after doing the recommended drills almost every morning and regular practice. God bless you, because for me you are heaven sent. Keep up the great work and a million thanks.

[westermangolftraining]

Always nice to hear simple basic advice for the beginners. Golf is so complex and breaking it down like this makes alot of sense. Thanks for the video, I'll show it to my beginner clients.

[thomasjackson]

This is very helpful, I can already see after 4 minutes and 50 seconds where I am going wrong in my swing. I lost my patience the other day and my golf club went for a test flight. Found your channel by accident, was looking at practice balls the Golfer mechanics came up so here I am learning from you and you are taking the time to.explain the what's, where's, how's etc etc thanks a million. Will be putting this into practice in about 15 hours time 😁

I'm starting golf after an initiation few weeks back, I loved to be out in the open, focusing on each shot, having to learn a lot about technique. I'll try your drill when I go there to practice, I'm sure it'll be a great addition to my lessons; Thank you !

[normdyson]

This is a fantastic breakdown. My swing has been out of sorts this year and this has helped me get it back under control. Even for an experienced average golfer this video and help as a training tool.

[treyoshannon]

I haven't played golf in 10 years (in hs, and I was bad) but this weekend I had a dream I was playing and wanted to hit at a range. I watched this video, then wanted to try a few shots in my yard. After doing everything he said, I launched some balls over the lake, and decided to go to a range. At the range I ran into a friend, shot better than ever and gave him some tips, then we wound up playing 14 holes together all in this same day. I have never swung a club this good in my life. I had such a great time out there, thank you for giving me a true love for the game of golf!!

Going to Top Golf tomorrow. Hopefully this can save me
