HOW TO CLEAR YOUR HIPS/PELVIS IN THE GOLF SWING | Paddy's Golf Tip #24 | Padraig Harrington

Last year, I published a video which focused on how the hips and pelvis function in the golf swing. This is a topic which I'm keen to spend time working on and speaking about, so this is an extension to the previous video. Take a listen as I dive deeper into the details and elaborate on key points.

I’ve played golf for 50 yrs and this is the 1st time I’ve heard a coach explain the hip movement in such easy terms that everybody can understand. A great player and now a great coach👏

Instruction from the best 50+ golfer on the planet. Recent Senior US Open victory confirms that. Now like the great sportsman/ champion that he is, he is giving back !!!

It's just amazing that someone at your level and accomplishments is taking the time to make these videos for us normies :) Thank you so much sir!

Padraig Harrington is creating the best series of golf instruction videos on the internet (I have watched hundreds). In addition to the exacting clarity of his tutorials, it is Padraig’s joy in golf that sets these videos apart. He has placed the crazy idea in my head that I can break 80!

Can’t believe I just got this lesson for free. Very informative. Thank you sir

[TEKXSD]

I am going to be watching this video over and over. It is unquestionably, for me anyway, the best golf video I've ever seen. Thank you so much!

Sometimes YouTube bewilders me. Like, I can’t imagine how 2003 me would have reacted to having a replay-able golf lesson from Padraig Harrington available whenever I need it. The future is wild

[michaeltewfik]

Trust me. After playing the game for 25 years and countless lessons, this video and Harrington's advice on how to clear your hips/lower body and turn up/lift to finish is THE key to becoming a very good ball striker and consistent player. This is the key to the golf swing!!! No exaggeration!
Paddy - thank you for sharing what countless pros and so called experts either don't want to or can't tell you

Imagine if everyone’s favorite player took the time to teach their fundamentals to their fans, like Paddy does here. What an example he is to other tour professionals. Thanks Paddy! Keep ‘em coming, sir! We love ‘em!

[smoozerish]

Paddy is a great representative for us here in Ireland. Sincere and good humored yet steely when it comes to competition. Keep up the good work Paddy 👍☘

[paulpiekutowski]

It's a pleasure listening to a guy who actually earned a living PLAYING golf, thanks Paddy for taking the time.

There are teachers and there are players. It is a rare combination to find a great teacher and a great player in the same person, but you have achieved that Padraig Harrington! Congrats to great instruction and heartfelt thanks from this amateur!

I have watched so many youtube videos on early extension. There are 100’s of them from ‘coaches’. Paddy doesn’t even know/ use the term ‘early extension’, but this is the most compelling and easily understood video of the issue. So good. He really brings home the value of a Player Coach who has no objective rather than help. Incredible. Thanks so much.

Always was grateful that Mr. Harrington would support, what is now, the Traveler's Championship, in Cromwell, CT. Not only an outstanding golfer but a very gracious man.

[michaelgreco]

Legit best golf instruction video I’ve ever seen in regards to not only showing the correct movements but describing what to feel while doing it. Beautiful

[scottboxenbaum]

This is one of the most complete and excellent descriptions of hip motion and banking. Thanks!

[peteraustin]

What I love about this lesson is how Paddy explains the 'why' of these movements. I can't recall hearing an instructor say that you need to get the right hip higher because it facilitates the weight shift into the front leg. As someone who subscribed to the idea that you need to keep that right knee flex constant throughout the backswing, this video has been a revelation. Much appreciated.

[MrT]

His tip to push your right glute under your left completely changed my ball striking. That motion to release the hips added so much consistency to my shot.

[timdiggines]

How have I not watched this before! I’ve had countless lessons and watched a million coaching videos and none come close to this, all the so called pro coaches who don’t get anywhere close to explanation and detail and here is the legend that is Padraig Harrington giving the best golf lesson ever! Cheers paddy!

[brentmar]

"Knee flex is criminal" - love it! So much charisma in his teaching- he cares. Best explanation of how hips work that I've ever heard. Make sure you warm up your glutes.
