I love your tuition, make sound so common sense and simply, if only lol r&g x
Great drill Ali. Makes a lot of sense. Thanks.
Great short lesson Ali. I will be seeing you soon, need more consistency in my swing… from Den.
Awesome…..Just tried a couple of short practices in my Office….
Nothing broken joyfully….the iron sits normally into that position…OMG thank's mate…off to the range tomorrow Night to give it a bash.
Delofting from a 7 iron to a 4 will add massive distance
Good strong grip
Hi Ali Brilliant Video 👍, your quite frustrating to watch 😬, you make it look so easy, I’ve tried this drill working on a closed club face takeaway with standard grip ( it works) but find it’s to much to remember when playing, Closing the club face & adjusting the strike looks much simpler (will try out next practice) Thanks Dickey 9hcp 76year senior golfer
perfect timing for this video, i literally just started doing this randomly the other day and it works for me. the club weight naturally sits down. i picture the club as a hockey stick curving around the ball. May not work for everyone but definitely did for me. Haven't had the same success with hybrids or woods doing this though. Only works for irons for me
so the closed clubface adds distance but goes left and long ! would it
be possible to compensate by aiming a tad right in the set up ali ..as
long as you maintain the compression at impact ?👍🤔
This is MORONIC, Turning a 7 iron into a 5 iron, just use the right club, I would never take a lesson from this GUY.
I've tried a very strong left grip before and yes….if you can rotate through and square up the hands you can get more distance. Similar to what he's doing here. But I always fought a hook as squaring it up was hard to do consistently with the strong grip.
Very useful tips….it does give me additional distance….contact is also great. Thank you
What iron are you hitting?
Seems like a great drill to get the feel of the hands in front.
Cool vid. I'll definitely give this a go. I hit decent numbers and I hit straight, but my launch feels too high and not piercing enough.
Rather than hooding the blade to get more distance why don’t you just hit a longer iron. If you only have 2 or 3 irons in your bag then I can understand doing it. But that’s why you have a good selection of irons. A steady consistent swing is best.
I find when i close the club face down it adds a ton of spin. It also tends to be a lower ball flight that goes a bit left on me. Also i have a hard time hitting my long irons like that.. I don't like adding spin and de lofting my long irons.. It's ok for 6 and above but not 3, 4 and 5.. Just my opinion.. Maybe i'll go try it at the range with my 4 for fun!
Just got back from the range and tried this. I definitely see what you’re going for here. When I was able to make flush contact with this swing (adjusting it for the open club face) it felt good. I am going to be curious to see if I can continue to replicate the swing when I try to increase the speed.
