If you’re looking for more distance off the tee but feel like you’ve tried everything, this video could change the way you think about the golf swing.
There’s one simple concept that most golfers completely overlook, and it has a huge impact on both speed and strike. I’ll break it down, explain why it works, and give you a couple of easy drills to help you feel it for yourself.

Brilliant lesson, that’s me focussed for the range, tomorrow. Thanks.
Brilliant! Does this work with all clubs?
That’s me.
Chris, spot on …
Looks like you have lost some weight>>
This kind of puts things together for me. I have access to a HackMotion, so I can try the casting drill myself when I get a chance, but it doesn't seem like it is essential to have this.
A down the line view of the drill would have been good.
I was told that if you get wear marks on the pad of your glove, your grip isn't in your fingers properly. What The rest of the drill demonstrates is more about grip pressure?
Great lesson, Chris. Thank you!
Complements a lesson you taught 6 years ago.
Both great and insightful!
Chris, I hate to ask this, but is everything OK with your health? I’ve seen your videos for a long time and you look like you’ve lost a lot of weight. Or maybe it’s because you don’t wear summer clothes much. Hope you’re OK man.
Have you lost weight?
I think the most important part of distance is getting the ball as close to the center of the club face, and speed comes after.
Speaking of physics, Sir Issac Newton said (in so many words,) you can't get something from nothing… so a short backswing is going to reduce the distance you hit the ball… simples
Told my buddy to do this:
He now says he hits it straighter, and can play more golf than 18 holes, without feeling worn out.
Now, if he can only swing softer without trying (he sometimes tries to swing slower, and his arms jump in and mess up some of his shots, he just started yesterday).
Where is Dave?
YouTube Video #10,262,425 on downswing/over the top transition 😂 Good one though lol. “Let the club do the work”
I do all the things you say and get a couple of mph… How does John Rahm develop so much speed swinging to 9 o'clock ?
Just took this to the range. Driving a lot further than usual and into the wind. Straight, as well. Irons going very high and good distance, too. Nice tip. Can hardly wait for my next round. Thanks.
very interesting take – well explained!
What a lot of crap
Wow – things seem simpler now. Thanks
Thanks. How do you like the Align grips?
Just the issue I have on HackMotion Chris shame this video isn’t on their app
Wow, you lost some weight. How did you do that ?
Top notch instruction
Those grips really help holding club in fingers,
This gives me a lot of hope I tried this at different points throughout my round today in a future video or even now would you mind giving some pointers as far as what direction meaning in the back swing towards your foot in front of your foot behind your trail foot should one move the handle before pointing it back at the Hipp thank you so much.
