ABOUT DANNY

Thanks for stopping by. I created this website as a resource just for you to support you on your golfing journey as I know how tricky learning this game can be…to say the least!
I personally found learning the game too long and difficult in the early days. I read all the books, watched all the videos but my game was not improving. Then after studying various forms of neuro science, motor learning, psychology and personal development in less than two years I went from struggling golfer to the final stage of the Open Championship.
On YouTube and my personal website (www.dannymaude.com) I will bring you the most up to date training, training that is getting tangible results for my clients right now. I don’t know where you are in your golfing journey, you could be just starting out or maybe your body isn’t as flexible as it once was or you’ve got ambitions to slash your handicap. Wherever you are I’ve created a place here you can learn, share your ideas, ask questions and get all the support you need to enjoy this great game.
Be prepared though. If it’s a quick fix you are after Im not your man. Here I will give you step-by-step advice that you can take straight to the practice ground and apply to the course but it will require you to get stuck in, screw up…a lot, practice some more and then watch those scores tumble
I’ve had the pleasure of coaching thousands of students all around the world and if you are up for the challenge and are ready to get in the game…LETS GO TO WORK!

This golf lesson provides a couple of wonderful drills to help you hit your driver straight.If you are a beginner golfer and are looking for some golf driver tips that are simple and easy to do then you are going to love this.
I will show you the golf swing slow motion so that you can see what you need to do to improve.
We look at 3 things:
1. How to stop slicing your driver
2. How to swing more in to out or how to swing more inside out
3, How to get the correct impact position with driver
and I hope to do all this with simple golf tips so you can create an effortless golf swing
So this week’s golf video I’m going to show you how to strike your irons more effectively by giving you one of my students favourite golf tips just something I get them to do for a few seconds before each and every single golf shot so if you’ve been struggling with any form of
Ball striking off the Fairway whether that’s your hybrids long irons you’re going to absolutely love this video now before I get into the golf lesson look if you’re new to the channel it’s one your first videos of mine please consider subscribing I videos just like this every single week to try
And help you improve your golf game plus you never have to remember a thing I’ll always put a free download a practice guide in the description box below so golf can sometimes feel very complicated can’t it? and just like you my students sometimes feel like they’re never going to
Get their game back sometimes they wonder how they get consistency in all their ball striking and one thing I do or get them to do is is something that just takes a few seconds before each shot and that
Is to kind of appreciate the structure of the arms and the club head simple as that I’ll show you what I mean by that you see a lot of golfers who struggle with kind of consistency of strike
Lack of distance what you’ll find is is at the moment of impact their structure of their arms looks a little bit like this it could be the arms are all folded and bended they maybe get a few
Chicken wings you might see the wrists breaking down here but there’s a multitude of things which is caused by poor structure great consistent ball Strikers have a wonderful structure which looks something like this the handle of the club will be leaning forward like this the arms are beautifully
Extended downwards underneath the body here and they’re almost forming like this letter y shape at the moment of impact this is great structure so what I want to do in this video and this lesson is
Teach you one how you can form that structure first of all at the start of your swing but then how you can maintain it throughout because if you can do that you’ll naturally become more consistent in your ball striking and therefore naturally hit the ball a little bit further so
Let’s start with how you set up to this so what I’d love you to do is simply form the letter Y nothing nothing more than that get the handle here put it over on your on your lead inside lead
Leg grip the golf club here put both hands on the golf club and look at this we’ve just formed look the letter Y hold the golf club up now in front of you here this is super important this is what
I get my players to do I’m going get them to look at the club face that stays make sure it’s Square okay we’ve still got the letter Y forming here and I get them to just pushed keep my arms connected
To my chest I’m pushing my arms outwards here it feels like my elbows are kind of pushing together why would I get people just feel like the elbows are getting pushed together well this is important look at this if my elbows are just gently pushed together two things are happening I’m able to
Create now a radius to a circle that we’re just about to swing on a roughly about 45 degree Circle my arms are bent and then I and I start like this next to the golf ball and then suddenly during my
Swing my arms extend I’ve suddenly in a sense made the radius bigger and I’m more likely to fat into the golf ball okay so I’ve lost structure my structures changed so just literally allowing
Those arms gently just to extend out in front of you the other thing this does are too is this when you push your arms forward if you do this with me if you grab a golf club you’ll feel this push your
Arms forward you’ll notice they rotate inwards as they rotate inwards look this way this now is opening the door for me to turn look and create this angled Circle here if I let my arms start to
Fold inwards here can you see the more I pull my arms inwards if anything I’m closing that door and now how do I create a golf swing I can’t but if I start to push my arms out and push them closer
Together now I’ve created a structure that’s going to allow me to create one a circle that’s roughly on a 45 degree angle but also I’m also creating the consistent radius to that Circle it’s going to give you a chance to make consistent contact so start with that form the letter Y just push
The arms out in front of you now you know what structure is you now need to figure out how to maintain main that structure through the entire swings I’m going to show you how to do that in
A second let me hit a shot with you now though of me doing this so I form my structure here now all I’m doing is is once I’ve got that structure I’m look I’m maintaining it all the way back all
The way down look and when I come and bring that structure back into impact here and I give it a crack okay so once my structure stays intact back here I can literally hit shot after shot pure as
You like easy easy easy and that’s what I want you to do but the problem is is it easy well it is if you understand how okay how to do this now the way I want you to start doing it is this you
Need to know the destination that your Club is going to okay now your destination is going to be different to somebody else’s and it’s going to be different based on your level of flexibility I coach golfers from all ages and this is super super important so when you set up to a golf
Ball and you’ve created this structure here what I want you to do is simply move your arms and notice this my trail arm here the elbow is still fairly close together and he’s sitting down now of all
The people I coach everybody has the ability to do this but maybe not as much as me some players don’t have the flexibility to keep their elbow down as much some people are slightly out here
A recent student of mine Paul was very much like this but you make the best attempt at maintaining whatever structure you have but here’s where the problem lies now what a lot of times people are
Doing is is they get to the top and what happens is in an attempt to complete your swing what you’re doing is you break down this structure to lengthen it okay now this could be flexibility issues it could be the fact that ultimately you’re not really continuing your turn with
Your shoulders you’re just doing it by collapsing your arms okay now it can be done in many ways one’s with the elbow I see recently um a student of mine tried to complete swing not with his elbow
But with his hinging his wrist here to do this got the cing now the face is wide open now the problem is look at this if I move back down to impact now is that the structure we started with no so that
Is super hard to uh repeat this is the structure we started with we’re getting back up here we want to maintain it as much as we possibly can so there’s two things I want you to pay attention to
I want you to pay attention to making sure those elbows are fairly close together but probably the most important bit okay and the one thing that I would see most golfers who struggle consistently with strike is your Club face so if you’re a flicker or a slicer particularly I want you
To do this watch see on my wrists here watch what I do with my wrists push away I’m almost getting my palm pushing away here I’ve kept the structure here this we see this I’m almost getting you I’m
Showing almost the label to you of the back of my hand I’m pushing my structure away this is vital why because look if I move back here look that’s the Square Face a lot of times okay in an attempt
To complete people are doing this they’re opening the club face now the problem is is as you open the club face what you do unfortunely on the way down is is you don’t close it by doing this and
Reforming your structure what you actually do most of the time is this and the elbow starts popping out and what’s happened now the handle goes behind the club head and you start getting these flicky strikes with a chicken wing and it has nothing to do and then you then you someone’s
Told you to keep your hands forward so you then start doing this now the face is wide open you start hitting them way out to the right when all you needed to do was keep the structure of
Pushing the palm of the trail hand look away here now look the face is ready you can from here look simply turn back down onto that golf ball Okay so so maintain that structure here right then when
You get to the top feel the same structure here now the final bit okay you don’t all do this all at once you need to know what’s your destination the simplest thing I can possibly tell you is this
Once you know the destination here all I’m doing is simply this get your lead arm back underneath your lead shoulder so I’m taking this structure and I’m throwing that structure straight down so my lead arm is underneath my shoulder here as I as the structure goes under all I’m do is I continue
That motion all the way through here this is what gives you the beautiful consistent strikes at no stage look am I losing this structure having to cause the hands to get active I haven’t got an
Open face on the way down if I have I might have to do this the structure is there and I simply move it right underneath my body here so I can give it An Almighty smack and we can play
With this now I’m going to jerk around now for a second so when I play this I’m not even going to set up I’m going to create this structure I’m going to walk this golf ball now and I’m going to
Take the structure and just just hit it so I’m not even going to set up I’m just going to watch bang because once you’ve got structure in your arms you can do silly things you can just simply walk up to
This golf ball because and take the structure and throw it back down in front of you because I have got control of the face I’ve got control of my arms and I can start repeating this look at these
Numbers we move moving around all place club path face to path absolutely perfect why because once I’ve got structure I maintain it and I move it down and it’s repeatable over and over again so do
Me a favor get that setup right feel the structure first then get that face ready I cannot tell you how important this is I might put a little kind of video here where a recent mind a less of M
Casper Lee came to see me and one of the things he had a huge slice huge awful strikes all I did was change this horrible structure here to this that’s all we did open face elbow pop out pushed
Him out here and he went from slices to drawers in 10 minutes okay try it out I promise you it’s an absolute Game Changer look if you enjoy this video give it a thumbs up maybe share it to one

Hey Danny I’m a 14 year old 30 handicapper. I am along time viewer of the channel. I just wanted to get your opinion on my swing as I’m having a bit of confusion. https://youtu.be/tOv1r0uj6cA?feature=shared. This is the link of my swing. I would appreciate if you gave your opinion on it. And everyone, I’m not asking for views, if you think otherwise
Epic tips as always, Dan!
Thanks for the towel drill last week and the previous videos. Unbelievable results for me these last few days.
Oh Danny! I've been on the move for the past couple of weeks so couldn't really interact all that much but rest assured I've been keeping up with these gold nuggets that you keep dropping on here and boy have I improved my game or what! All thanks to you lad, cheers!
Thanks!
I love your lessons!
Nice one Danny excellent as always 👍 😊
Always love the simplicity of your lessons, such easy tips to take out and practice.
Grazie.
Great advice Danny, my Y structure can easily breakdown if I let it. Love the feeling of closer elbows at the top and trail palm pushing away to close the face. Then swing down underneath lead shoulder. Game changer for me 👍. Thanks again.
My trouble is: I know this already, I then go and play, I'm doing really well, then I slack-off for a few seconds because I'm trying not to have too many swings thoughts, then boom, too late, shot in the rough, ravine, or a pond! I keep kicking myself and telling myself that I can't forget the takeaway and to get that left arm outstretched on all shots, but nah, my daft brain, after a whole year of playing now, still can't retain that discipline for an entire round! You really can not slack off for one second. I'm going to have to just try harder!
Brilliant Danny. Simple, clear and nailed!
Morning Danny have you got the simulator at home or is it at the club? Must be great if you have it home. I would stay in it for hrs on end every day. Thx as always and have a great weekend
How does this work with spinning the right arm down? Or is that taken care of by focussing on getting the left arm back under the left shoulder??
My insomnia paid off tonight – thank you for your wonderful lessons! ❤
You’re the best online instructor by far Danny 😊 so simple & just love the way you talk us through it 🎉keep up the great content mate 🎉🎉
How much is the wrist moving/changing during the backswing? Is it in a constant position all the way from setup to impact? Thanks Danny 🙂
It’s almost like you’re watching me when I practice. This is exactly what I’m working on now. Thanks as always Danny.
GREAT simple video Danny. See how long before other YouTube coaches copy your lesson? Think we all know who it will be.
Thanks for the advice Danny! I think I need to check this for myself…Also when I lose my swing I do a step drill that looks very similar to what you did at 9:37 (lovely looking free flowing swing) in the video. It really helps with the feeling of the club whipping through to the target.
Sat morning coffee whilst watching your latest video, perfect start tobthe day, thanks Danny!😊
Superb Danny ⛳️ 🏌️♀️👊
Nice biceps, Danny!
86mph club head speed,with what seems very little effort with a 7iron 😮.. I’m giving it my all with my driver to get 86mph, I’m in my 50s but fairly flexible and fit, I’d love to know the secret to gaining more speed .. great video as per usual
Very good indeed.
Another great simple lesson Danny. 👏👏
Thanks Danny, spent an hour or so on the range trying a few of your tips out, they certainly helped consistency. Im hoping that this one will give me the confidence to swing a little harder.
Another great video Danny. I’ve already tapped up my towel from last week and this video reinforces the video you did with the elastic training band for pushing the hands away.❤
12 months ago I was struggling to break 100, this week I scored 84 for 18, got 39 on the back 9, 3 birdies and was less then 6 inches off a hole in 1.. I mainly have you to thank Danny.
Its like keeping the heads (yours and the clubs) equally apart.
Excellent Danny, in particular using the 5 seconds drill before every shot. This creates the connection between the arms and the body.
I worked on the very same thing on the range yesterday. went through the setup of arms out horizontally to get a better grip pressure and square setup with the Y at address. The balls were damp and I was given feedback on face striking which improved and gave me masses of confidence . Been playing for 50 years and it never stops to amaze me how we can tweek and hopefully get something out the game. Cheers Danny👍
Love taking your ideas to the range danny
Brilliant video lesson that has finally made the penny drop in my often confused brain👍
Great stuff as usual!
