The problem with all this straight arms locked to the body and grip the club with both hands fingers interlocked and after one has done all this they say now relax golf teaching has been wrong for years . Now i am not having a pop at you Andy i like your channel . But a lot of youtube channels leave a lot to be Desired with there advice Please dont go down the Ben hogan secrets scenario the great man must be up in heaven Laughing his whatsits off what he actually did was Develope a swing that worked for him . He did not take swing secrets to his grave .Full stop
Still loving this Andy. I can see and end of season video coming on the tips that have been embedded into your game and a course blog over 4-6 holes where you recap (without the detail ‘cos we will have seen them all) on each shot you take. So far driver 2 head widths behind the ball and opening the face slightly on wedges have made the biggest difference to me. A Christmas special might be chatting with Lewis on what he thought of the series – I see a couple of beers and some laughs on that one 😂
Andy this is like the old towel drill. Placing it across your chest and under both arms – and trying to keep it there thru the swing. Tip I found was to only have it under your right arm and for me it works much better. Try only putting the tee under your right arm
I’ve been using this method for a while. But try it with Putting!!!!
Hogan knew this, read his book.
Had a lesson a few weeks back with my local pga pro, my main issue was this, arms coming away from my body and causing all sorts of bad shots. The towel drill was advised, and has been beneficial to me. I find a golf glove under my right arm has been better than the towel. Might also feel a little bit easier than a tee peg 🙂
Very much what I remember from this article

Great job. I am so happy that you’re now into teaching. I always envy your swing. It’s so smooth and your ritme is perfect. I have tried to copy your swing but unfortunately with no real result. Maybe this video will help. Thanks for sharing.
Andy this actually comes from Hogan's five lessons, Been around a long time great tip.
David Blair @ Swing Build Golf told everyone to do this 5-7 years ago, check him out on YouTube
Tried this out yesterday and it worked for me. It feels strange at first as if it will make you swing like a robot but within a few swings it feels quite natural. I knocked 6-8 shots off my normal score and hopefully this will continue. It could be the best swing tip ever. I did go to The Art of Simple Golf website and give him an uptick.
