This added 15 yards to my drives and cured my hook. I also used the grip Todd describes
do you advocate the same "sway movement" for irons?
Hover and Sway make a lot of difference for sure
Hi, Can you advise what length of drive we should be looking for using your approach, also to allow for conditions as we like the wet stuff in the UK during this time of year, I am a 69 years young and best drive for now is around 150-180 best, Summer may get me 20-30 more, I appreciate your comments.
Best lesson I've seen for seniors. What format does your Vertical Line Golf program come in?
Excellent video!!! This spring Im planning on revisting these videos and the Verticallinegolf swing page, this teaching is pure gold!!!
Do you keep the club face aimed at the target when closing your stance slightly as you reccomend so the club face is closed to your stance line ?
Great video. My question has to do with getting the hands higher at the top of the backswing. I have found that I do gain some distance when I do this, which is great , but , I pull the ball more to the left. Leaving for Florida next week so I will try to get this taken care of down there.
Since I'm 73, I love this tip! In your setup ideas, I have one other suggestion I'd like you to comment on. My backswing thought with all clubs has always been to swing back on the same angle I have in my club shaft at address. With driver, that is now a little too flat to accomplish the high hands position you advocate. This year, I purposely put my hands and shaft angle higher at address with my driver so the "high hands at the top of the backswing" would be more on plane with my address angle. It really works for me. What do you think of adding that setup change for this "Senior Driver Swing"?
Thanks for the experience golfer tips… They really work..
Todd! All excellent tips for we "experienced" golfers! I have converted to the vertical line swing. I feel that I am starting to regain my lost distances. I am now going to try your tip on a heavier accented weight on the lead leg at set up. In trying this move indoors, it seems doable and won't interfere with my weight transfer. Good Job! All the Best to You for 2022!!
Excellent vid for us experienced golfers! Really enjoying the Vertical Line program content! Todd Happy New Year! 🇨🇦
I've been working on the vertical line swing now for about 9 months now and everything has been working great, very easy on the body.
Thanks for all the great tips this year , and have a Happy New Year !!
It would seem that a lot of power/club speed comes from the fingers/wrist motion yet this was not addressed. Is it bad to loosen the grip/the wrist to get the club further behind you even though you can not twist or turn shoulder/hips enough to get back there?
I discovered the hovering technique a few months ago and I can't explain it either but it has improved my tee shots. My question is that if pre-setting the hips is a good idea, why wouldn't pre-setting the weight shift to the back leg be a good idea. I've found that the more moves I have to make during the entire process, the more things can go wrong.
I really like this tip. I do however have a question. Should an experienced golfer also work with resistance bands for more strength and flexibility.?
I have a question, not a comment. In the baseball drill when you align your body to 4ifht field, do you align the xlub face to center or left field?
T hanks do4 your respons3.
Do you consider 60 a senior because I'm still keeping up with my younger golf buddies? And hitting longer than most of them. I have lost distance though. And side to side will kill a swing in my own opinion. But it might work for some but not for me. It moves your position from the ball. I do like the hover drill.
Hey, not just for the "experienced" golfers. I'm in my 30s but I have hypomobility syndrome so most tips I watch are for "experienced" golfers because I have very similar flexibility
Do you try to keep the trail arm shallow?
This closing the feet and hips really helps me drive the ball so much better. Thanks.
Todd, I ordered your Teton driving iron on July 2, 2022, and I cant get customer service to contact me either by email or phone. Can you please help me get a confirmation fir my order, or my money back? Thanks!
You've gotta change your stage set bud,it looks like you're practicing on a grave 😂
Thanks for these tips. Do you also recommend a wrist snap as we hit the ball?
