He was completely lost and didn’t know how to fix his golf swing. What happened next was something he never expected – striking his irons pure.

=== VIDEO BACKSTORY ===
I met the student (Tom) while filming videos at the local driving range. He mentioned how he was completely lost with his game. It was so bad that he canceled his golf plans for the week. As someone who plays at least 3 times a week, this was extremely frustrating for Tom.
I hate seeing golfers suffer. So, instead of doing my usual filming session, I asked Tom if he’d like to be on YouTube. Tom figured he had nothing to lose and happily agreed. This video is what happened next.
Something unique about this lesson is that Tom plays an “all-hybrid” set (except for a sand wedge). I could tell he was apprehensive about hitting irons. He never was able to hit them. Hybrids were the easy way out.
When I told Tom we were starting the lesson with an iron, he was reluctant (and probably afraid of hitting them!). So, not only was I battling Tom’s swing – I had to overcome his long held negative beliefs about hitting irons.
Watch this lesson to see Tom go from zero to hero with his irons. I bet he’ll be buying an iron set in the future.

Tom did great!
I wish I didn't have so many injuries that I can't play anymore because I would come and see you. Not being able to play golf is like having lost a dear friend. 😢😢
Really enjoyed this format tom, very insightful! Do you still recommend ball position a club head inside your lead foot?
Man this helped a few pieces…especially the thumbs rotating on the backswing and hands just inside the lead thigh at set up…it’s like I was taking the lesson too…watch, pause, go grab club and do what Tom said! I was keeping the trail hand on top of the club in the backswing and this minor change feels like a more consistent strike.
TOM the stuff your teaching is DANGEROUS, with your method is was hitting my irons so far i was overshooting the greens with all my irons, i had to go back to my old swing to finish my round, effortless power!!!! Baby draws for days, just got to get to the range and relearn the distances with all my clubs again.
I am striking it well with your method but it seems that I have gotten the pulls. What could cause the pulls with this?
