Fix This And You’ll Never Slice a Drive Again – https://youtu.be/b-QTCWMFIDw
Ed. I'm excited too
Swear i was watching this yesterday ,and suddenly it stopped and disappeared…..or maybe i was having a premonition?😬😜👍🏼✌️
Great video! Thank you
Just started watching this video and had to stop and comment. Your opening intro is spot on, I will just add if the individual does not use PGA professional in his signature block, I would take all advice with a grain of salt, or better yet, walk away.
This is amazing work. Thank you.
now this is gonna be awesome
I feel like I'm seeing a lot of the top professionals all playing with interlock. Maybe only 5 or less in the top 50 that use overlap
Loved this. Thanks for the great work. For someone like me who, over the years, only dabbled at golf, mainly for entertainment, but has finally decided to take lessons and actually learn to play golf, your approach to teaching is just right. Simplifying a game that can become complex makes it repeatable, and that's the first step I feel in making the learning process exciting to become a better player.
On driver alignment, I have noticed that many instructors are suggesting that closing your width is better for Sr. players because it supposedly creates more turn for us, your thoughts?
I’m 17 minutes in and totally re-inspired. Having discovered Coach Ed and Patrick about a year ago, I have to state to the public, you WILL NOT find better instruction on YouTube – and yes, I’m aware that’s my opinion. I did exactly what Coach Ed stated very early on and that was to strictly limit my viewing of golf instruction to two or three – that ultimately became one! Without exception, the best instruction and one of the most competent individuals with video. Listen to this good man, you’ll learn the necessities of how to play this game – Concepts and Fundamentals are expertly presented here without any equivocation or apology. Watch and learn. Practice and improve. Many thanks, Coach Ed and Patrick! Can’t wait to watch the rest, study it and take it all in. Great!, video. Many thanks.
I can’t say how much I appreciate this video and this channel. I’ve been playing golf for about 20 years and while I am not a beginner, I benefited greatly from this video. So simple, clear, interesting, and relaxing to listen to. But I highly recommend that all golfers watch this video, take notes and benefit from it like I did. Thank you for taking the time to produce it.
Thanks!
Ed’s instructions are truly game changer for me. I limit & only rely now on his teachings after years of in-person lessons, and following other YouTube golf influencers. His teaching principles/ethos are practical and effective from long game, short game, bunker shots and putting techniques. Big thank you. I am enjoying the game of golf now
This is an epic resource. I'm not sure I qualify as a beginner, since I started three years ago, but I feel my fundamental skills are poor, and I know my on-course performance is below average for my age. This is exactly the kind of review I need. It has taken me three days to watch through this video once. I watched half of it the first day, then pulled out my notepad and started all over again on the second day. My first two notes are, "The golf swing is a circle. The golf swing is a swinging motion." Yep. I will start with those two and the two-towel drill to work on my path. I am waiting impatiently for the ice to melt.
Hands down the best golf instructional video I’ve ever seen. As others noted, not just for beginners. This one is being saved!
Thanks!
Can you do more videos with light stick ie full swing, half swing and chipping? Thanks. P
Great job by you and Patrick here Ed. I would guess you're not making any friends in the Golf instructional world by giving away this valuable information for free! God bless you for doing so, as we old duffers need all the tips and fundamentals remedial training that we can get. I will look for a Patreon link for you to put something in the tip jar. Thanks again, and PRESS ON!
This is the best instructional video that I have ever watched.
I will be 60 years old this year. Currently a 13 handicap. I started learning the game at age 25. My first instruction video was Golf my Way by Jack Nicklaus . I have watched hundreds of hours of instructional material to date.
This channel and the material is the best by far of anything I have ever seen.
This particular video is almost priceless, especially the golden nugget hack that he gives up around 1 hour 47 minutes.
No BS , real deal golf instruction.
Thank you gentleman for this channel!
I recently had the opportunity to meet Ed and Patrick. They are great people. Listen to Ed and your game will improve.
Great content. 👍
I love your stuff, and was really looking forward to this. But that 'music' in the background just became really annoying. Frustratingly I gave up on it after about 30 mins.
Fantastic video!!!
This is one nice ass course. Way nicer than my local muni, haha
Simply SUPERB !
Every time I'm over on Mid Rivers I think about how I always wanted to play a round at Old Hickory…looks like a beautifully well-maintained course.
Greatly appreciated this video… wish i saw this when i first started
#TheGolfSensi THANK YOU! I totally love your lessons & teaching! All the techniques you demonstrate! I see that they work! Old school, YOU ARE THE BEST COACH.
This is pure gold! Ed is an excellent communicator. He’s especially brilliant at conveying concepts. Two and a half hours of well thought out tuition for free. Golf requires patience and discipline. If you watch this video and really listen you’ll be well on your way to a lifetime of good golf. That being said, you could and should watch this video more than once. I’m convinced you’ll learn something new every time you watch it.
Excellent video! Thank you!
Thank you for making this video!
If you are topping the ball isn’t it possible to have the correct bath but up instead of staying down you raised up ?
Thanks!
Excellent video…sent it to my 14yo grandson who is getting started….I'm in my mid 60s, starting to get issues arthritis in a finget or 2 and a thumb…thoughts on jumbo grips? high handicapper getting back into the game…hands are not large…M-L or L glove
This is amazing
Coach Ed, This is the very best golf instructional video I have ever watched. Thank you so very much for the time and dedication you devote to help us become better golfers. You are very much appreciated.
Putting the sole of your club flat to ground at address is not what you should be doing. The toe should be slightly off the ground. Otherwise, you'll hit the ball with toe at impact.
I have been playing now for about 2.5 years now. I have watched hundreds of videos. I truly believe this is the absolutely the best channel. I believe most channel know what they are talking about but most can be a little confusing at times. I cant wait for my in person lesson this Thursday.
Lots of people scoff, but I think bowling and fly fishing are equally as hard. At least done correctly. 60-70ft fly casts or 20 ft finesse casts, etc.
Very impressed! Bless you for sharing all of this! A lot of time went into this video for sure! We actually live an hour south of STL and myself and my daughter are learning to golf. May have to schedule a lesson! 😊
The best video on YT explaining the basics of golf! Thank you again for sharing all your many years of knowledge with us for FREE! Those not as experienced as you should NOT use the putter to remove balls from the cup lol
Unless the line is set correctly. Putting another variable in the mix imo
Thanks so much for sharing your experience with us. I'm quite sure my game will certainly improve now. Thank you John.
Thank you so much for this great video ,I have been golfing since 1972 ,when my best friends dad took us out for a fun afternoon of golf . Boy was I tried on our way home ,but I was hooked. I got my fist set of Chi Chi Rodriguez golf clubs and I would hit them wherever I could.. I never got any golf lessons growing up and could play to a 10 handicap most of the time . I have started taking some lessons,but I have found your lessons are a lot more meaningful than anything I have been told so far. It is so interesting ,that you knew, Ernest Jones , I have read one of his books,and he put me on to reading Manuel De Torres ,such great teachers .just as you are Ed . Thank you so much . God bless you brother.
