we’re all busy we all got stuff going on in our lives we might not have all the time in the world to devote to practicing golf like a pro golfer but we want to hit golf shots like a pro golfer how do we end up getting over a ball swinging hitting it pure but still have a life in the process well here’s the story of how I was able to become a pro golfer on just 50 balls or less per week my first story of becoming Pro and really hitting the ball like that light bulb moment that goes off hitting the ball really solid involveed the simple f- minute golf lesson where I hit 10 shots well 13 if you count the three bad ones before I got corrected so my swing was all sorts of timing I had to lift my arms I was dropping the club I was shifting a lot of variables when I do those things contact’s inconsistent and I have to spend my life on the Range trying to figure out how to time those things but in this lesson what I learned was I didn’t have to spend weeks practicing I could take weeks off come back and I’d still be in the same spot as where I left it so my swing could take a break and that lesson was simple I’m going to share with you today three simple things three simple things to get pro ball striking without practicing much and really it might be a 5 or 10 minute range range session a week like that’s all you need because you got other things going on the first thing is contact if I wanted to play Great Golf consistently well I’ve got to strike the ground on the same spot every time and the first way I do that I set more weight on the front leg with all my clubs because it creates a situation where I set it and forget it set it and forget it keep that in mind you want to set and forget as much of your swing as possible and I just swing my shoulders and there’s the contact point on the ground so then when I get over the ball I set it and then I swing and I’m guaranteeing a strike with the ground I’m guaranteeing something very crisp it sounds great and I can do this shot after shot just by setting it there and bonus points really you don’t have to do a whole lot in your swing if you just focus on keeping most of your weight there like that was the first first aha moment was oh you’re telling me I can take breaks yeah just set that there you can even lean into it a little bit more like 60% if you want so that enables me to enjoy playing golf a lot more but also open up my other Hobbies like playing guitar you have more time for friends and family whatever you want to do so I just anchor that weight there and I swing and it’s crisp so you’re not seeing a shift or a sway off the ball because then contacts compromised it’s over you can’t do that no timing no timing allowed all right next thing next next part of that little five minute lesson like I said I hit 10 balls in this lesson 13 three bad ones then I got corrected I hit 10 and the pro said all right go back to work because I was an assistant pro at the time swing the club around your body instead of up and down okay so I was doing this very up out have very steep Over the Top If you change your path from being here to instead here that’s like a 20 shot swing for any hundreds or 90s player the second you get there overnight you wake up in the 80s High 7s you could that’s what happened to me I was shoting like anywhere from 89 to 95 trying to become a PGA member as a freshman in college and I had a swing that I could never count on until this so now we focus on the hands moving deeper around the body and when I get here it’s like I’m presetting a powerful downswing because I am it’s not just like I’m doing it it’s because I am doing it and so I focused on more swinging more around the body on an arc instead of going out and up I go around and I let the body the body start I started feeling my body open up I felt this effortless sensation of the hip turned and the shoulder turn and it was harmonious it was just nice so I get over it and I focus on in here in here and the ball just explodes and then while I’m working on that you know I’m trying to figure out how center of the face again it’s awesome uh I’m trying to figure out how to hit the ball straight well ball was flying straight in that lesson but how would you figure about out hitting the ball straight you wouldn’t try and roll the hands over stop trying to time get rid of the timing so you watch when I swing through these shots when I finish you see the club face staying very Square around the body and a great example is that watch this finish here that’s a it’s really straight it’s incredibly straight and you see the face and the hands after impact like this and not like this so what have we just eliminated we’ve eliminated the variable of Shifting we’ve El eliminated the variable of contact so we’ve created one contact point and then we got the second piece the other variable where am I going to go with my down swing well instead of going up and down we go around the body so the entire body works together that keeps you from shifting and the third thing is I keep the face Square which is required for hitting a straight shot I keep the face Square by ensuring that I don’t release the hands after impact instead of releasing the hands and turning them over I’m just going to keep the shoulders moving through the strike and try and keep the the club face parallel with my spine I know it’s it’s different it’s different but when the norm when the norm of golf today is that it’s expected for you to work hard it’s expected for you to go out and spend hours practicing this all seems so contrary to that because it is the reason you’re working so hard is because you have a swing that’s built on timing you could go out and play a 4-Hour guitar gig three nights a week cuz I currently can do that and still have this going if that’s possible then you can do whatever you want too and it’s not like pros it’s not like the pros are not swinging this way cuz what if you were playing golf 80 rounds a year let’s say like 80 tournaments a year what’s that maybe 200 rounds I hate doing math on TV it’s a lot of golf week to week you do the practice round you got the four arounds you’re playing a ton of golf and you’re on the road do you really want to swing where you got to wonder if it’s going to show up no you want to swing that’s going to show up so what did they do they set the weight forward and throughout the swing they’re going to keep their head in place consistent contact so wait forward head in place consistent contact and then what we don’t want to work so hard we don’t want to hurt our body so next thing we work on power we swing the club around the body so then you know around here we’re just going to swing the club around the body instead of up and down so this requires two things now we’re going to check it out from this 45 this is really this is really deep and by Deep I mean all I’m trying to do is turn my shoulders on a tilted angle so we’re swinging the club around our body and I’ve got my shoulder under my chin I just point the shoulder at the ball I try and feel I try and feel like this it’s not actually that but I try and feel that so I’m trying to turn my shoulders on a tilted angle to the ground that way I keep my relationship to the ball and it guarantees a crisp strike with the club moving around my body so I got power consistency accuracy that’s what I’m training up in my online golf school su. golf you learn how to build a swing like this so you don’t have to spend all your day whacking balls or going out to the course with uncertainty this produces certainty because my schedule’s busy I teach lessons all day I’m making videos communicating with siguto golfers all over the world there isn’t a lot of time to get out here and practice and then there’s the time to go play guitar and time to eat saving the world from golfing disaster means that I can’t get out here and hit a lot of balls so I probably hit maybe 50 balls sometimes I hit 50 balls a week sometimes I hit zero sometimes I hit 150 and you ask my student Derek Derek you know who you are Derek is trying to be a pro golfer now he’s practicing like a pro golfer and he’s getting deadly good but this one day I went straight out to the first te with this swing no warmup lace one right down the middle and then I proceeded to Birdie the par five I should have just walked home that was it what was it it was just the same three things Pros do this too I put a video out recently showing you how the pros do this they’re all doing this they don’t want to work like that stop working like a dog it’s been a hard day night I’m a working like a golfer said it forget it wow I know you might not you might say based on the quality of those strikes that I must hit 200 balls a day no I don’t you can ask Derek I just stick to these things every single day all right a little bonus tip if you stuck with me this far sometimes if you wait watch to the end you get bonus tips you know that another thing that I’m really Jolly about is my right arm I tuck it in just tuck that in keep that tucked in with these Keys get it in as much as you can so at the top I’m instead of me being out I’m just in in not out when I get out that’s when problems come up oh the Choppers are here they’re coming to get us every single one of these balls is landed in the same spot you don’t have to work so hard why are we working so hard this is how it’s possible for anybody you don’t have to be a magician you don’t have to have athletic ability this is normal people can play pro golf without working so hard thanks for watching see youall in a future episode [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause]
