three moves that helped me get good at golf. I’m going to explain the three moves that made me good at golf. The third move is the most important of them all that really had that got me to scratch. And the reason I’m sharing these three moves with you guys is because I want to get you guys even better at golf and you already are. If you’re new to the channel, welcome. My name is Steve Johnson. I’m a PJ professional. For those of you returning to the channel, thank you very much for coming back. Let’s get better at golf, shall we? So the first move that got me good at golf was the number one imperative of the golf swing and that is the flat left wrist. So a flat lead wrist in the golf swing. What does that mean? The back of the left wrist is flat in relation to your forearm. So through impact you want that lead wrist to be flat in relation to the forearm. Now if you start off with your grip slightly strong there and your left wrist is flat then your club face is going to be closed. Now that closed club face is okay because if your path is in to out and the face is closing to the path perfect. So I understood that from a young age that my path being in to out. So swinging from in to out with the face closing to that is more like a like a forehand in tennis as opposed to a drop shot. So I thought okay into out with the face closing flattens the left wrist. Hogan talked about supernation, the palm pointing to the sky, which is not that, but he felt that and that is impact. That is number one imperative of the golf swing. Think about what happens to the club face. The back of the left hand pointing towards target, that impact controls that club face. If my left hand, if I start to swing from in here, face closed, face open. So, I really need to hold the back of that club face to target for longer. It feels to me as though I hold the club face to target up until here, which would be absolutely ridiculous. And I do not do that, you know. I do not do that. I do not do that. But that is how it feels. And it’s just for a fraction through impact. So when I was younger and I was training myself to do this, I would hit soft shots to here, feeling that position through impact, feeling the back of the left hand, controlling the club face. ball turf, compression, back of left hand and club face married up to get that flat lead wrist. The number one imperative of the golf swing. Now, number two, it’s just as important. Number two is getting the body to work for momentum and compression. So, you’ll have seen this drill before, I’m sure, stepping through, taking the club back and stepping through. Now, I did that from a young age. I really did that from a young age and I I I used to te- balls up because initially it was hard for me to or for anyone to feel that movement. So the club’s going backwards and the body goes forwards incorporating my flat left wrist. So my number two move would be I would take the club just halfway back, but as the club’s going halfway back, I’m moving towards target. So it’s moving backwards, I move towards target. This club’s going that direction as my foot’s going in that direction there. And that for me, it completely sequenced my body. Ensured my body was going in the right direction at the right time. You can see from here, I don’t The last thing I want is the upper body leading. So, I understood that pretty quickly. But if I get the bottom half of the body moving towards target, not immediately, but sooner rather than later, sooner than the the upper half of the body. So if I had a little narrower, I take my normal stance, move my lead foot in a little bit, start going backwards, and then step into it. And that was I hit loads of balls doing that. I was there in there. You can hear and feel how that worked. And of course, that got my body through the shot. It enabled me there to ensure that my body got through the shot. So then I was able to sequence the down swing and then over time over time I would be able to do off the grass. I’d get to there and my body would work. I wouldn’t step in over time because I’d educated myself. But you’ll see here how my lead hip starts the down swing into there and then everything follows after that. And that’s where I get momentum. So my me momentum is going towards target. But I also got the the compression. So the ball turf strike because I was able to get the lower half of the body to lead the top half of the body into impact. There you can hear I can feel I’m fully on this side now. There’s nowhere else for me to go. I got a ball turf strike. And if you were to slow that down, you would see how the lower half of the body, the left knee, the left hip moves to target, moves behind me before everything else follows that. So the sequence of the golf swing came from there. The control of the club face came from number one with the flat left wrist. Now number three. Number three is the most important of every part of the golf game. Number three, you may be glad to know, is a short game tip. This changed the game for me. This changed golf for me. I don’t say that lightly. I all my game has revolved around short game. I’ve always struggled from the tea. That new driver shaft really really helps me. But around the green is where I was able to make up points. I don’t hit the ball that far either, so I’m able to make up points there. This will change your game. My golf ball here is 1, two, three, three yards from the green and another 22. Three yards from the green. Another 22 paces to get to the hole. That is a 25 pace shot. The 25 paces I’m not bothered about. The one, two, three, let’s call it four. The four yards. Let’s put some T’s here. The four yards is what I’m bothered about. So four. Four yards to me is 12 ft. Now I’ve got a seven iron out here. I’m going to keep the ball low and run it up. The tip I was given as a as a junior golfer. Yes, as a junior golfer. I was going to say a youth, but it was junior golfer was to address the ball relevant to the distance of shot you’re trying to play. So I see so many people when I’m coaching take their seven iron out. So I say, “Come on, seven iron. Let’s just get it on the front of the green. They put the club behind really really good and they set themselves up for seven iron and they’re actually my seven iron goes 170 yards. I’m set now to hit this 170 yards, but I only need to hit it four yards. So, I was taught to zone everything in. Everything gets zoned in. I have to make everything smaller. I have to magnify everything. So, now instead of setting up for 170 yards, I’m setting up for four yards. Club behind the ball. Let’s make the club shorter. Let’s make the stance narrower. Let’s move closer to the golf ball. Let’s take a shorter swing. Let’s grip the club lighter. Everything’s Everything’s reduced relevant to the distance I’m trying to hit it. And that’s me set there for a fouryard carry. I’m just trying to carry the ball four yards. There we go. Carried at three and a half. Let’s get myself four yards up there. There it is. So, it landed right there. It’s running up. It’s going to go in the hole. Touch the edge. Touch the edge of the hole. But that was so important. And then when it comes to putting, same thing. So, I have three putts. This putt here is going to go 40 feet. So, I set myself up. 40 foot putt. Note the stance width. 40 foot putt. 20 foot putt. Narrower. A little bit further down. Making everything smaller. Zoning myself in a little bit more. 20 foot putt. Five foot putt. Got a little fivefooter. A little bit closer. A little bit further down. Nice and soft. Only five ft. There we go. Boom. Everything’s zoned in relevant to the distance of the putt. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 36 foot putt. I’ve left myself 36 feet from the hole. However, it’s rapidly downhill. I only want to hit this about 4 feet. So, I really just want to get the ball going to about here. So, that is basically again roughly 5T I would say. So, I’m not going to set myself up as if I’ve got 40ft putt, 33t putt. I’m going to set myself up for a 5ft putt. Just there. Much more delicate. Zoned everything in. Looking at a five foot putt here. Pick my little start line. Set myself up to just hit the ball 5T. I know the flags are way down there. Just a little 5 foot putt just to the uh it’s plenty. I then let the ball go. Let it go. Let it go in. Just missed on the right edge. But I set myself I zone myself down to play that delicate shot. If I’ve got a little chip down the side of the green here, a little fast chip again. I’m going to do the same thing. I’m going to be in here. That number three is the most important of them all. I can’t explain that enough. So that there is three moves that got me good at golf. Move number one was the flat lead wrist. And we know what it’s in relation to the back of the lead forearm. And if you’re pass to out with a closing face, boom. Well done. Number two. What was number two? Body to get momentum and compression. If you can feel that little drill, if you can feel that little drill, you are flying. Absolutely flying because you’ve got the body to work. You have synchronized the swing correctly. So the sequence is bang on. And number three, of course, number three comes to short game, zoning it in. Setting yourself relevant to the length of shot you’re trying to play. If you’ve got a 40ft chip, but you’re only carrying the ball 4T, set yourself for the 4ft shot. Don’t set yourself for a 160 yard shot. That’s not going to get you anywhere.
