Thanks for watching!
I don’t ever feel like I’m applying anything that gets the club out in front of me I’m actually trying not to and just turning through and physics creates it hey thanks for clicking the video after I made that last video about motorcycle Cuts so you’re basically spinning your shoulders hard and when
You do that you do this and those two things come together Milo lions from Arizona who’ve done a lot of videos with a good friend of mine uh called me to say how much he liked what I was working on and how much he lik how my swing
Looked and whatever and that it matched a lot with what he would has been telling me to what to do so we were talking about it a lot and I said well why don’t you make a video for me so that you can give people your two cents
About like how this can work and also a lot of people in in that last video or some people were talking about well when you do this it’s hard to know like with a four iron or something you might have to do this a lot because you’re building
Up a lot of energy and you’re swinging fast but for a wedge if you do that same amount of energy the ball starts going left so he had some important additions to add to what I put and I think uh it’s really uh helpful hey Brandon sounds like you’re making some nice discoveries
For yourself the concepts that you are discovering for yourself or concept I’ve actually talked you through but I’m happy you’re starting to understand them and put those puzzle pieces together well let’s talk a littleit about what those are and why they’re important so concept number one is tumble so this rotation which is
Superation in the lead arm and pronation in the trail arm if that occurs too soon your body needs to turn off in order to make the ball go towards your target line so for example if I turn this club back here and I start to to
Swing down and this starts to Tumble out into front of me you can see the club is getting more in line with my midline so it goes from it’s working in line with my midline causing me to feel like I need to keep closed longer in order to not
Pull the golf ball okay so what I really like to see is I like to see this rotation going in the the negative Direction and from about right here to the top of the back swing and then even more in the negative Direction so it’s getting farther behind my middle my midline
Here all the way down until we reach around P6 so pretty late in the down that’s my feeling I actually feel like I try to keep it going that direction the entire down to now physics dictates it’s not possible but what it does it gives my
Body a head start so it allows me to go a long way around and the club is still a long ways back there now because the club wants to naturally line up to the thing that’s that’s that’s pivoting I get that tumble but it’s happening really late and not causing me
To pull the sh and it allows me to keep my body hurting long enough so I’m getting out of the way and I’m able to hit those shallow Cuts now the next piece of the puzzle was the club face orientation so in transition we want to feel that clug face strengthening early
And that’s done in a myriad of ways but it’s a blend of Trail wrist extension and Lead wrist ning toward flick that strengthens our club face and if we blend that with the rotation working back this way now we giving us ourselves a free ride to be able to
Unwind our body aggressively and not fear left which as you know forever has been your Bugaboo and I’ve talked to you often for a long time about how you rehearse things because in your back swing you’re constantly rehearsing the tumbling of the center of mass out in front of you
Which then incentivizes your your body to to slide more and not turn where if we are creating the pattern where the center of mouth is rotating farther back now that incentivizes us to turn our chest okay so those ideas blend nicely so sounds like you’re finding some good
Matchup I’m excited for you I I saw the last video where you were actually hitting some rotational Cuts where you felt like the face was more clothed and the chest is more aggressively getting out of the way and the ball wasn’t going well that’s a good sign good
Job okay so the problem I’ve been having the only problem I’ve been having because I’ve been hitting my irons really good I’ve been hitting the driver really good the only problem I’ve been having actually is with my wedges so this is like a 54 degree wedge that I
Would want to hit 100 yards and they’ve been going left all right that one went straight but the one that I hit before went like 30 yards left yeah that’s a great example idiot and I’m not really exactly sure why I know with the wedge I got to
Think like more Steve Stricker like the forces don’t have to be so you know crazy they can be a lot more patient than something the Milo I think is going to help me out with so I’m going to aim a little little right cuz it never ever ever goes right so if
I aim a little right and try to hit almost like a pool on purpose see that’s that’s that’s right at it that’d be that was a little thin but it’s like I’m actually with my wedges I’m hitting it solid it’s just always going a little
Left so I’m going to get 3° open on the face at a dress look at my target yeah that’s what I need to do yeah to be I have to feel like I’m staying very stable but that went really far left that was really clipped but I would
Have missed the green by five yards all right that’s how I want to hit it no that was a yank yeah keep my level and keep that yaw from happening I need an actual Target I’m going to swing out to that Red Stick there’s that if I want to hit that I got
To feel a lot more Steve Stricker keeping my level 3 Dees open into that red flag okay that’s right on it it’s still motorcycle cut Cuts but it’s just for some reason really important that I don’t feel like I yaw it ever at all three yards left don’t
Y and keep my level that was a great shot that could go in the hole okay good so you mentioned a lot of people have questions about hitting shorter and longer clubs with this pattern so feeling the club shut and then turning through it how not to hit it left
Well first off one of the keys is your clubs need to be slightly different in my experience I generally like my L angle slightly flatter in my shorter irons like my wedges because there’s less droop in the shaft because shaft’s shorter and it’s di that’s one
Adjustment next one is I feel like I never let this club pumble out in front of me with my short clubs that helps me hit lower shots helps me cover them more with my turn and get that nice little flighted wedge the starts online and goes down my
Target like that okay now as the club gets longer naturally I’m going to put more energy into it so I’m actually going to use the ground more push up more which is going to unload that club a little bit more but physics is taken over here so
I’m not really having to worry too much about my start directions they’re going to be fairly similar so if I feel like I never tumble it but I start to push up it tumbles more on its own helping me hit that little higher launching shot that’s a little four iron right there
Pretty good landed on the green out there 235 in the rain but that’s what I’m feeling I don’t ever feel like I’m applying anything that gets the club out in front of me I’m actually trying not to and just turning through and physics creates it and I’m always feeling like I’m almost
Maxing out my trail wrist extension and transition feeling that and if I’m nice and aggressive with with my Pivot the ball doesn’t go lacked that’s perfect one right at the flag okay really cool lighting right now so I wanted to hit a couple four iron so
You can kind of see the trajectory on these a little low flighter now we hit a nice high one TI cut one more really feeling Club stand back there’s a perfect four iron okay now what does a little sand wedge look like we’re right at the same Target
Oh we lost our nice light so we’re not back lit right now kind of cool when it’s back lit you can really see the ball fly but it’s dead at my target thanks for watching Everybody thanks to Milo for shooting these videos this is a slow
Motion of him we’re going to be doing some stuff with Milo coming up soon I think I’m going to go out to Arizona and play a match against Milo film the whole thing and I think that’s going to be really exciting but to see it you got to

Thanks for watching!
Watching your videos have been great. Milo’s sessions were my go to ones. After seeing GRF videos, and you bringing Marcus over, I felt your swing got more natural. More relaxed. In this video as soon as you became target oriented, your shot making improved. I feel , for what it’s worth , ha ha , that you have it all. Just relax , don’t think as much.
Do a dynamic lie angle check B.
Had a similar issue with wedges with this method – I started feeling more of a draw path and it sorted it right out.
I like to flight my wedges. The club is more closed but I have more shaft lean with my wedges so it ends up square. Have you tried doing everything the same as a middle iron but just hitting the wedge lower?
Hi Brendan,
As you move to your wedges, it probably makes sense to stack more (upper and lower) more toward lead leg with lead toes flared. All of this shortens your backswing which allows for a smooth toss of the club (ball). You are loading your wedges like a power club (e.g., driver), instead of an accuracy club. I almost never hit a “full shot”, with any wedge. If you do a less than full swing and try to load like a power swing, you will have trouble getting through the ball because there’s not enough time to get back which causes a late flip. I like to feel like my wedges are 90% through swing focus. That is attained through setup primarily (along with less severe trail leg loading).
My two cents 🙂
Alan
I was introduced to both Milo and Marcus through BBG. Thank you for that. But it seems there is one significant difference I hope you are in a position to address. Both seem to me to advocate a different release. Milo is teaching a very strong body rotation squaring the club with more of a hinge release. Marcus clearly teaches a rotation of the shaft and club head, even starting early in the ds, and letting the wrists roll and release after impact. Is it just me or do others agree? Dr Kwon is clearly teaching the same as Marcus. I would appreciate if this were more clear because it is confusing. Thanks.
Brandon maybe my eyes are deceiving me but it looks like you're lined up left..maybe you need an alignment stick on the ground so we know alignment is not the issue.
Been trying to tell you this for 2 years. A YouTube video with Sasho Mackenzie and Chris Como that I have also mentioned in the comments explains the physics at work when the club shallows in the down swing. GG, Sam Sneed, MAT Woolf, almost all of the greatest golfers shallow the shaft in the downswing.Milo also nails it when he mentions your practice swing! It’s straight over the top! Good Luck!
What would interest me is how Milo came up with this? Was it trial and error? Instruction?
I like it
Milo lookin' Trevino ish!
Milo makes it look so easy!
Opposites, try setting up with the face slightly closed. You body should then adjust.
Brendon, do you really believe that everyone who's really good at golf is thinking about all this stuff and has somehow managed to figure out how to perform all this stuff instantaneously and perfectly and in the correct order and does that shot after shot? Or maybe like Milo said, "… physics is taking over here …" and there's a simpler way to allow all this stuff to happen naturally without conscious manipulation? Attempting to consciously manipulate the golf club at full speed is futile. Humans simply cannot think that fast and even if we could we could never get our body to react fast enough. The idea of conscious manipulation, which a lot of people attempt, causes people to swing slowly so they can watch, believing that they can somehow evaluate and then manipulate the club mid-swing.
How is it that you can give a golf club to a 5 year old child and within a short time they're performing a fantastic golf swing? Children know nothing of physics and have no preconceptions of how the golf club should work which is why they're able to figure it out so quickly. Children let the club teach them. Adults try to make the club do what we think it should rather than letting it teach us. By attempting to make it do what we think it should do we're fighting the engineering and the physics of what the club wants to do naturally. Most people have no idea they're doing this because they have no idea that what they believe is fundamentally wrong. Most everyone does the same thing you're doing, "I need to do this more, I need to do this less, I need to try harder" … but what are the shots that are the best and most memorable, it's the one's when the ball flew straight and far and you said to yourself, "I have no idea what I did there. I wasn't even thinking." As Martin Ayres says, "You can't Xerox a swing where you weren't thinking. You can't think about not thinking." So, shouldn't we be trying to learn how to perform the swing we did when we weren't thinking? That's the Holy Grail of Golf™ that magical swing when the ball exploded off the clubface that we somehow performed perfectly without thinking about it. Golf instruction should be about simplification, not complication.
Finally, your ball going left is a simple geometry problem and is the bane of the mid-level amateur. Let's say X= the clubface direction and Z=the direction of force, you can simply change the angle of Z rather than attempting to consciously manipulate X. So, if Z+X=100, let's say 100 is straight toward the target and you're getting 110 or left of the target, instead of attempting to actively and consciously reduce X, maybe it's much easier to reduce Z and get the same result. If you can't reduce one side of the equation, reduce the other. Not all parts of the golf swing are fixed. Hopefully, that makes sense.
I have been changing my swing from a flipping action. After 10 months of watching you, Milo, Mike Malaska and Monty Sheinblum I have ended up……very happily….with the swing Milo is demonstrating in this video! And I love it. Why? Because it feels natural and it works. No more duck hooks. Straighter shots and longer!!
Thanks for all your tips guy. I also dropped 5 shots.
