Let me help you get an effortless golfswing with speed and accuracy. I call it the circle of speed. A good release will help you to a better impact and longer drives and irons without slice and hook. How to swing a golf club need to be adjusted to your skill level and experience.

Long and straight is the goal for everyone but it takes time. Try to focus on one thing not everything when you practise. Impact, face control and swingpath will always be the most important part to drill. We focus too much on rotation but no good golf shot will be executed just by rotating.

I’m naturally right handed but all my tips works for both left handed and right handed golfers.

We also need to understand that many myths in golf are misleading. Everything that you find on the internet isn’t true. Ben Hogan, Sam Snead are two of the legends that are often misunderstood.

We shall not keep our head still, only start with the hips, look only at the ball or keep the left or right arm straight.

If you use callaway, ping, titleist or taylor made clubs doesn’t matter you can learn to hit good golf shots. Your loft or your shaft on the club will not change but you can always get better.

Find what inspires you. Golf basics are the same for everyone. The pga tour, longdrivers or other good golfers can all help you find better golf shots. Watch what they do instead of listed to what they say. Listen mostly to your body and figure out what you need to do to produce the same results as the pros on TV. Be careful when you watch a golf swing in slow motion. The result isn’t always what the golfer is trying to do. Feel and real are seldom the same.

Mike Malaska, Mike Austin, Mike Dunaway, Pete Cowen and Steve Pratt are some of my favorite golf instructors online. Find the tips that make your golf better. Decide what you want to hit. I teach a draw but many like a fade and nobody likes a hook or slice.

Your hips or your lag is not the key to golf. Your hands will decide the shot and you can do like Tiger Woods and trust your hands. Teach your hands to hit different shots. Hit big hooks and slices to understand what happens. Only straight is not gonna teach you anything.

Bryson Dechambeu and Kyle Birkshire can inspire you to hit it longer. Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson can give you inspiration and motivation to test new things and new golf shots. Linn Grant, Viktor Hovland and Ludvig Aberg can show you the future of golf.

The Masters, Players Championship, The Players, The Open and US Open can make you love golf even more. See the best in the world solve all the problems we all need to master any golf course. Golf is a craft and you need fantasy, feel and skills to master it.

  1. Love it. I’ve always had a hard time not using my dominant (right for me) side and hand, and tried to swing with the other arm (left) by pulling but it’s inaccurate and feels power-less. Great to see proof there are other ways from the so-called conventional nonsense.

    Hope you’re doing well and on the mend Marcus!

  2. Hi Marcus, there’s a video of Sam Snead showing how to push down with right shoulder as a right handers steps/squats into their left leg. Any thoughts?

  3. Marcus, perhaps a video discussing your best philosophy for breaking 80? I hit the ball fairly well on almost every swing (i.e. the ball goes up and away in the general direction) but I don’t hit greens and rarely get up and down. I track my handicap on Arccos and I’m flatlined at 12. I try the standard approaches that other YouTube golfers suggest. Hit irons off the tee, play extremely conservative, and all that seems to happen is I end up playing a few shots worse because I’m making absolutely no attempt to score.

  4. Getting a sense of that pivot point in the handle between the hands is huge. Personally, I feel it as a push with the pad of my index finger on my trail hand and pull with the pinky pad of lead hand. Definitely less pull with lead hand to make it the “slower” hand. At least that’s how I feel it. Once in a while I can time it right so the lead hand pulls faster by stepping into lead leg, which raises lead shoulder as lead arm straightens, which REALLY speeds up the club. But it takes a lot of practice to feel that timing and mostly I’m happy from the shot I get without the extra speed. But it’s a very addicting feeling!

  5. Marcus, you make it sound so simple and watching you swing and strike the ball you have the holy grail of an effortless swing. Does the equipment we use (shaft stiffness ect) impact our ability to generate speed! I consider myself strong but to hit a 7 iron 200 yrds I’d need to be on an airport runway. Great to see you looking so well. Keep them videos coming as I’m trying to keep the picture of you hitting the ball in my mind.
