The World's BEST golf coach's INSANE NEW BACKSWING METHOD!?



The World’s BEST golf coach’s INSANE NEW BACKSWING METHOD!? When playing golf we always want to play the best golf ever, a few days ago I was lucky enough to have a lesson with one of the worlds best golf teachers David Leadbetter. In this video I take on the challenge he set to play golf with his insane new backswing method… let’s do it… and let’s do it now!

  1. Nick Faldo when he was with David Leadbetter practiced the pre-set drill "until the cows came home. "
    This isn't exactly the same but it helped him.

  2. The swing really looks great with a super trajectory. See you at "Bunkered Live" at the end of February on the England and Wales Blind Golf stand.

  3. with this swing the rest of your swing looks way better, more connected, and powerful. I tend to take it back too much to the inside but when I am smart enough to think about taking it back the way Leadbetter showed you(something I discovered by accident) I hit it much better as well. For me the problem is to remember to do it like you learned in the first video. Also glad Leadbetter validated what I "thought" was a good move for me. Now to just remember it when hitting. Good job!

  4. A coach had me doing similar only he had me go back a little further to where the club had hinged up above or up the forearm.
    From your new starting position I think you still tend to roll your wrists and whip the club a tad under your forearm, which my coach said was a swing killer.
    However, I can't say it helped, I remained a high handicapper. I hope your version of the drill continues to work for you.

  5. excellent video. Thanks James. cant wait to get to the range to try it. What I think it would do for me is keep my backswing smoother (I dont want to say slower.. but that is what I am working on) and from there, it seems the rest all falls into place

  6. 👏👏can hardly believe it great video
    – I’m working on exactly the same thing at the range I hit 3 from the end of “takeaway “ position and then 1 normal – been doing for a month or so as was like you James pulling club inside – made such a difference and not one lost ball in 5 rounds strike and ball fight improved enormously – haven’t dared hit shots on the course yet 😂 but when video swing much more on plane now

  7. Watched yesterday and hit two jumbos at the range. Amazing results I encourage anyone to do this.
