2 Drills That Will IMPROVE Your Ball Striking INSTANTLY

In this lesson, Adam goes over an element in the golf swing that can help improve your impact instantly. The Hip Bump. Doing this simple move in the set up helps for the golf to 1. Stay centered through the shot and 2. Have a low point passed the golf ball.

As a student of Adam's, the moment you feel that hip bump lock, and your trail elbow pass your stomach, its guaranteed going to be the best, most compressed perfect flight you've ever seen. Dude is a magician.

Adam, you have done it again. Been suffering from the dreaded slide-flip for years. Went to range yesterday and crushed it. 71 yrs young, 9 hc. Thank you, you are ‘da bomb!!!

This hip bump is an absolute game changer. I noticed it in another video you posted. I've been using it the last month or so and it has made a world of difference in my ball striking. I'm compressing the ball with ball then divot plus shaft lean. I have struggled for years trying to clear my hips and keep hip depth, but I couldn't because my hips were sliding forward (towards the target), causing my lead leg to sag through impact. When you bump your hips at address, you can clear your hips naturally and allow you to post up on the lead leg and cover the ball. Best golf tip ever!!!! Fantastic!!

Love the Video! You always talk about the Hip Bump, but the extra explanation to the student was so helpful❤

One of, if not thee best channel on YouTube for golf tutorials. Funny how hitting golf balls with left foot forward shown in the drills is so much easier. Can I ask what the best way to start the downswing is? After watching one of your previous videos on getting club out in front, I've been focusing on what feels like initiating the downswing with my arms then rotating through once trail elbow gets to what feels like the right hip. Cheers

One of the best instructors on the internet if not the best. These drills are gold. Thank you for the incredible content you deliver. Everyone should be learning from you. 👍

Great information. I think wanting to move my weight left has kept me falling backwards for the past year. In a short amount of time this has helped my compression a ton. Thank you.

I appreciate the simplicity of your drills, along with a clear explanation of the mechanics at work.

Now!! It all makes sense i been struggling with figuring out why you don't promote any lateral movement on the dwn swing and its because of the hip bump!! There's no need to move its already there!! Man eye opener for me today watching this video i tried that lateral move and man is that hard to repeat its so inconsistency and your right Adam it kills your rotation as well

[miketownes]

I've been following and using your teaching method for over several months. Your swing techniques have improved my consistency in my golf game. My iron play is solid, but still working on the consistency for my driver.

I started to really get into golf after two acl surgeries and multiple mensicus surgeries because it was something to do outside and be competitive. Unfortunately it’s my trail knee and i think it has really messed up my swing mentally where I don’t want to put weight or twist on the knee. I’m going to work on the hip bump and hopefully find some confidence in my swing and right knee 🤞

Hi, well great videos..I have tryed the hip bump...and it is just fantastic. I have struggled with getting the hips to turn for a long time. I am thinking this unlocks the hips buy putting some weight on lead hip joint so the trail hip can move back. The tilt seams a long way back off the ball..but when turned.. it just works and no manipulation..

[leemartin]

Wow this explains a lot of my problem, I used to slide/bump my hips and have struggled. The front leg "post" idea gives me a clear idea of proper hip movement - thanks.

I resisted the hip bump for a long time because it felt too restrictive. Three things to say about that: 1. When I started doing the hip bump, I was restricting my turn just as Adam warned against. 2. The hip bump was now reducing my hip sway which felt awkward at first but the ball started to be flighted and straight. 3. The hip bump limits my backswing which felt very awkward. But when I watched video of my swing, the top of my swing was actually right where it was supposed to be. That was a HOLY CRAP LIGHTBULB MOMENT!

[Majshock]

I do the hip bump on the back swing. It gives me rhythm and aids in the coiling of my body feeling athletic… doing the hip bump in setup makes me feel too static and uncomfortable and was leading to the backwards lean chunking and casting for the ball…. However I will say that it is an excellent way to teach and understand the importance of getting that leg posted up. Great tool for beginners.

As a swing thought. Too initiate the downswing dies your left hip start. Or do you start with arms and the hips react?

[andrewmainsbridge]

Awesome video, thank you for your always excellent instruction.

[MarkFoster-gk]

Great instruction. What differences apply when using middle and long irons?

[vietrandy]

Outstanding teaching. Wish I had this 30 years ago.😢

[mikewhaley]

Great content, in doing this as I am bumping the hip. I tend to get a long draw left, not a duck hook, just over draw. Is this in my fore arms or in my hands? This is my miss, I start aiming more right at times then it's a straight push. Just trying to break under the 9 HCP. Thank you for the videos.
