Golfer drops 20 shots with this 1 Minute drill!

right okay welcome back to another episode of testing the tips and there's a claim that a student dropped as many as 20 shots off his handicap with the one minute drill that I'm about to show you in today's video the video comes from saguto golf it's the first time that that channel is featured on testing the tips and that's largely thanks to you highlighting his channel has been something that we should take note of and he has a very very simple drill two elements to it I want to keep it as simple and as straightforward as possible as we can but it also encourage you to go and watch this video on saguto golf's Channel because he does something that I've never seen before on any of these tips channels when he pulls the cameraman from behind the camera onto the tee never hit a golf ball before in his life and he starts striking the ball using this method now he might be skeptical like I was but watch it and you can see it's a very authentic clip so what is the drill very simply if you're struggling with any kind of inconsistency with strike then I would suggest this is a real no-brainer in many ways also if you're starting the game it's a very easy way to start building up confidence and getting your strike levels of the quality of strike High we're going to do it with irons and the problem is with a lot of golfers and again I always highlight my issues is that we tend to sway so we sway off the ball which means that we've got to sway back to the ball and make sure our Tempo and timing is right in terms of making a decent contact and instead of swaying we should have more rotation that's a big problem so how would you make that how do you simplify that problem well seguto Golf and again unfortunately I don't know his first name he takes a simple address position and then what he asks you to do is he wants you to load your front left leg it's very different than some of the other messages that you might get out there in terms of golf tuition and he highlights that and acknowledges that himself but he wants you to shift your weight I would say I'm as much as sort of 65 35 in terms of weight distribution to my front Lead Foot at the moment he then talks about maybe visualizing that you're attached to a wall so the wall is running along your left side and what you can't do is move away from the wall so you need to stay with your weight attached to this side that's the visualization that you've got then all you're going to do with this weight I could say shift it over to that left side is you're just going to straighten the arms or straighten the left arm I do apologize keep the left arm straight got we can obviously we can bend our our right arm we're just going to take away keeps our left arm straight with the weight still distributed the way it is keep our left arm straight through the swing as well and what should happen is we hit a decent golf ball so let me get comfortable weight over to that left hand side all right and all I've done there is simply punch what I would say is sort of a tent or two swing which is another video that we've done very recently but it seems that it's very much a three-quarter swing and all you'll see is that we get ball then Turf and there's another one I hit before we started this and you'll see a similar thing and what's interesting is for me is that low Point changes significantly which means that I'm starting to hit ball then serve and you'll see a nice straight line of divots as well so I ain't even going to Waffle on with this one there's a tendency to do so in some of the videos in terms of all these tuition videos like I said go and watch saguto golf's explanation because that's it it ends there it's very much got a lot of the kind of if anyone's ever heard of the sort of stack and tilt method it's certainly got some of those uh connotations let's say so wait over to that left-hand side all you're going to do then is simply get a bit of Rhythm and get yourself hitting down on that ball that was better so you're just looking to Scuff the ground pick a again something he does with the student that he pulls from behind the camera pick a little Point uh on the ground and make sure you see you know where your low point is switch over your weight and make sure you're trying to hit down so left arm straight down on that ball it's that simple I'm ending it there we're going to keep it short and sweet it's probably the shortest video we've ever put out on YouTube in terms of testing the tips but trust me that small little tip weight distribution 65 35 attached to the wall do not sway just get that left arm straight and see how much difference it makes in terms of your contact on that golf ball right as ever thanks for watching that link by the way will be in the description box below if you're not subscribed already to our Channel then please consider doing so I'm basically trying to improve my golf and hopefully whilst I'm doing that it might
