It causes high scores and is the #1 reason you slice. Don’t do this in the golf swing. Instead do what I show you in this golf tip – it will stop your slice and get you hitting straighter.

Great video Tom!
If I may make a request, could you please make a video focused on the part of the back swing between the takeaway and top of the backswing? Your lesson here is very simple and clear, but at the top of the back swing, some rolling of the hands seems to happen since the trail palm is pointed toward the sky (whether it is actually rolling of the hands or some other movement which gives this illusion). This is the part that always stumps me and gets my hands/arms/club face all out of whack.
Thanks for everything you do!
Been doing this exact thing since the start of this season and i'm finally seeing my iron game Improve dramatically. This combined with smartness in course management has made golf so much more fun. Thanks Tom, for confirming i am on the right track. Next up is to find some extra yards 😊
Perfect
I play my best golf when my hands are quiet on the move away. The club remains square as you show and it certainly straightens my iron play.
Omg Tom I was a senior in high school and was hitting the golf ball great with the clubface angled down like you demonstrated. My dad thought I needed lessons so I went to a local pga teaching pro. He 1st asked me to hit a few shots on the ground with a 7 iron…I was absolutely striping it. He than asked me to hit the same club off of a tee. He said I was hitting good but actually better off the ground and was suprised. He than proceeded to change my swing to be "toe up" like you demonstrated. It ruined me for 14 yrs! I had an epiphany on a par 3 so I decided to just try and swing like I used to….I striped my 5 iron off the tee onto the green at my target! I've never looked back. What I should've done was get lessons from 100 yards in. Thank you so much for this post!
Best swing coach on Youtube by an absolute country mile. Keeps it simple and relatable. Keep up the good work Tom! Your 'tucking the elbow' in video has made my swing so consistent it's ridiculous how good it is.
Great job of explaining how the club face works during the swing. Just remember to keep your hands quiet during the swing.
I recently became a member of the Saguto golf school. I have been a golfer for many years. This school has gotten me hitting the ball as crispy twice fried KFC baby! I have never hit the ball as consistently as i have since joining. I would recommend to everyone. Tom is my favorite YouTube golf personality. Thanks Tom.
Tom i think i've seen all your videos. But not sure if i have seen a video of your breathing? when you swing… Not sure if its something important to note
Thank you Tom for another great video!
Hey Tom! I just subbed today and I also just bought my first set of clubs today too, just a cheap starter set for now. I’m 23 years old and trying to get into golf cuz all my friends love it and I just want to be able to play a round of 18 with them and have fun w the boys tbh. Your videos really helped me out so far, practiced my swing all today and gonna bring this knowledge/your teachings to the range w me tomorrow. I’ve watched a lot of
Videos so far, a lot of them say so many contradicting and dif things and get complicated! But your videos are clicking w me and are very simple for true beginners like myself. Appreciate ya! Have a great day homie
Thank for this. After years away i've gotten back into it and my swing has been a mess. Eliminating clubface hocus pocus fixed so much pain in one session. I've subbed to your training as a thank you.
Love this
Tom. I have wicked draw with my irons but beautiful straight to outward divot line from after the ball. I will look into how i take the club back tomorrow and try again!!! Thanks man you the best! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Makes sense 👍🏻
There is variation in swing technique between instructors and Golf Digest has added to the confusion by presenting information from many coaches and players. I heard a local pro instructor some years ago say that Golf Digest was one of the main sources of his new clients. I have learned over the years that if you have a good horse you ride it and let the others graze. The same applies to golf instruction.
Tom, I joined your training program 😮
I can honestly say this program is awesome, KFC all the way !!!!
Tom- Nice move. I'm obviously manipulating my hands. This got my attention. As always thanks for the focus. Stay well.-Russ
Hi Tom, you video on a slow swing, soft hands, right elbow against the right side…it almost sounds like you would agree with the Stack & Tilt guys? Comment? Thanks. Gerry
Does not to be hand action. It’s forearm rotation. There is some in all golf swings. It’s impossible to swing without it. And it shallows the club. It’s a matter of degrees. Forearm rotation creates a lot if speed. But at a cost of consistency. So a balance must be struck.
This works. It simply works. I’ve been struggling with compression on the ball and inconsistency. Watched Tom’s video this morning, realized how much sense it made, went on the range this afternoon, and hit 5-7-9 irons time after time straight and long. Thank you. Totally fun.
👍🏌️⛳
감사합니다.
Tom have you ever reviewed the GEM Golf training aid?
Getting back into golf after 3 years. Used to be a 6 handicap. Been struggling to break 80 and was feeling like I’d never get back to a single digit handicap. After feeling lost with my swing I happen to find this channel and boom 3 months later shot at +6 78! This man is a genius! Thank you for saving my golf game
P.s also play the tradition quite a bit when I go to myrtle! I’ll have to say hi one day
First golf instruction that actually shows an instructor making a mistake. Thank you for the great video, I know this can help. Can't wait to practice it.
yes this changed my golf game! everything clicked once I started doing it. seeing lower scores and hardly have to think about my swing now out on the course.
Been golfing for about 8 years and was insanely inconsistent. Went away from toe up and I've probably shaved at least 15 strokes off my game. Still inconsistent 🤣 but not as bad!
Literally played yesterday on the 4th of july… and tried explaining thia to a friend after the match.. im about tonsend thisbto him. Haha. How funny
Did Tom get new clubs??!! Never thought I'd see the day those Titleists got the boot! 🤣
After watching Tom’s video on the Hackmotion I got one and have been using it train to better control my club face at the top and at impact. I assume that the club position during my take away has to be pretty reasonable if it is good on top. What I found at first was that I needed to feel like I was closing (manipulating) the face by rotating my forearms a bit at impact to close it enough and to make Hackmotion happy with the position (and hit a decent shot). But I suspect the manipulation was much less than if I was letting the club face fly open on the backswing. I’d probably gotten into the habit of leaving the club face open for any number of reasons. This motion is starting to feel less manipulative and more smooth and linear. Anyway, the Hackmotion has helped.
I also signed up for the golf school and am reviewing my swing from A-Z by going through all the content and drills. I will say my contact has improved pretty quickly with the combination of these things.
I hate Tom's videos, I keep watching them and getting better. Now I have to quit my job and join the Tour, it's been really hard on the wife and kids.
It’s funny how I know that this is exactly what I’ve been struggling with… thank the YouTube gods for working this algorithm in my favor today and helping me come across this video. Hope to put this into practice and fix my constant open face shots.
Very good info. Headed to the range now 🙌🏿💯
Isn’t Butch Harmon more of a toe up guy?
Tom I have learned more from you than anyone else just by dropping in from time to time…this particular video was what i needed to see at this point in time with my swing….you are a great teacher and i appreciate your style…..Thanks much
Dennis
Oh sweet your in my home state.
Do you elbow tuck when you chip?
Do I spy new gen 6 irons? How are you liking them? They look so sweet!
I'm so glad I found DJ Tanners bf Steve. My golf game and understanding of the game has improved greatly
A week ago I watched a youtube of yours that was suggesting just the opposite. Keeping the left hand" palm down" pointing down in back swing. Help me understand , please!please.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLai9v2F0vM
I stopped playing the wrist game a while ago. I just try to do a tempo count on the back swing and not start the down swing with a jerk.. slow.. steady and accerating with the whip sound past the ball. The hands do what they are supposed to at that point.
I’ve been watching a lot of your videos lately. Which I thank you for making & think they’re very helpful. I don’t play much anymore due to injuries suffered. I practice a lot hitting balls into net. I recently just played a par 3 tournament & never played worse in my life. Could barely make contact. It was awful. I was hitting balls flush into net tho. The more I watch your swing videos the more it seems that you’re basically teaching a punch shot swing? Is that correct. From grip, to take away, etc… your own swing even looks like a punch shot. Short backswing, short follow through. Idk. I’ve been struggling for years & I used to be pretty decent. It’s frustrating. I’m fighting a lot of bad habits that I can’t compensate for anymore given age, mobility, etc. any advice? 😂😢😅 thanks
One of my team coaches told me to take away with toe-up, and I argued with him. I told them I had never seen a single good consistent golf player do such a thing, and now I see this video.
Tom, thanks for more good information. “The roulette wheel of destruction “was classic!
Use the towel drill for feeling the correct take away. 50 times a day will do it.
