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

So today I really want to help you with your  golf driver swing I’m going to share with you   the fastest way I know to improve your driver  swing in doing so I’m going to share with you  

A golf swing tip that was shared to me by the  world’s number one golf coach Pete Cowen it   does three things it instantly improves your  contact it instantly improves your direction   and if you follow the steps I’m about to show you  you will start to see an instant increase in your  

Distance okay it’s super super cool and a really  simple golf tip before I get into the golf video   look though if you’re new to this golf channel and  it’s one of your first golf lessons of mine please  

Consider subscribing I release golf videos just  like this one 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   practice guide in the description box below so  before I share with you Pete Cowan’s golf tip  

Let me just show you what a simple golf swing or  driver swing looks like super simple ultimately   it’s this the golf club swings back on roughly  a 45 degree Arc it’s like a beautiful Circle   swings back here comes back into impact here and  then swings through it is simple it’s repeatable  

Able okay with you’re being inconsistent with  driver and I was to track your Club my bet is   we’d see all these various different loops and  stuff and the golf club’s going all over the   place thus affecting your strike your level of  consistency and certainly the amount of distance  

That you’re capable of hitting all right so how  do we then create a circle that is consistent   time and time again well ultimately you all  you’ve got to do is this what moves the club  

You right the body the way you move this body now  most of the time the reason why the club’s moving   all over the place is is your body’s moving all  over the place and you probably can’t feel it  

All the time or you’ve tried many many things  but you haven’t be able to solve the problem so   Pete gave me this exercise in fact he he reckons  this one drill he gives to every single one of  

His students because it is the fastest way to get  the body working effectively time and time again   and it’s ultimately the feet together exercise so  you’ve probably seen this drill or similar drill   like this before but not in the way I’m about  to explain it to you today because if you can  

Learn to do this correctly it is incredible at  improving the quality of your strike so here’s   what we start what’s the purpose of this well  when you start with your feet together like   and stay there just for a moment okay we’ll show  you how you start to get wider uh throughout the  

Video but when you start like this what does  it do well we want to get that club arriving   at the same spot every single time okay now what  happens when people’s feet are apart they start to   move around excessively without realizing okay  that’s affecting bringing the club back at the  

Same spot every time but when you try and move  around excessively with your feet together you’ll   immediately lose your balance which gives you  immediate feedback and therefore training right   so this is almost like a free training here that  you can take to the golf course so I’m swinging  

Now backwards and forwards and I know that if I  start moving around I’m going to lose the control   of the the control of the head so I swing now and  I know I’ve got a consistent spot I can strike on  

The ground okay the second thing it does is this  when I tip forward now remember we don’t play   baseball like this okay we play golf so we we’re  tilted towards the ground we want a tilted Circle  

So now if I as long as I keep my head roughly on  an imaginary wall here as I’m swinging this club   I am now naturally going to swing this club on a  roughly a 45 degree Arc I will immediately feel  

Myself coming up cuz I will lose my balance but  when you have your feet apart it kind of masks a   lot of this okay and you can you can lift up you  still feel the balance because you got feet apart  

And again you set the inconsistency comes in so  having the feet together trains a really really   good swing so here’s how what I want you to do  to set it up because this is important so before  

You go into hitting any golf balls here all I  want you to do is put your feet together like   this okay now turn your left foot or your lead  foot out slightly here this just keep you a bit  

More ability in this left side then what I want  you to do is this I want you to make some swings   small swings to start with okay now every single  time I give this to somebody I mean every single  

Time they start to lose their balance why because  they’re starting to move make the same moves they   did with their feet apart this is brilliant  right because it’s giving them feedback you   see once your body starts to lose balance all I  want you to do is keep swinging and swinging and  

Learn to swing in balance as you start to learn  to swing imbalance suddenly your body will start   to kind of pivot more it will start to kind of  get all the right tilts in like this why because  

It happens naturally but you don’t have to think  about it the drill will teach you how to do this   naturally because if I start lifting up I will  feel the loss of balance so on now sty stay a bit  

Closer to the golf ball here there we go swing  backwards and forwards and Trust the exercise   okay then what I want you to do is this this is  important when you get yourself set when when  

You set up to the golf ball here I want the ball  okay outside almost on my little toe of my lead   foot here now why do I do that because when we’re  swinging I want you to set up with the club about  

Two or three inches behind the golf ball here  cuz when you swing beautifully in Balan here we   want the club the driver to do what naturally hit  up on the golf ball okay so I’m going to hit shut  

Now just put my feet together and all I’m focusing  on here is just pure and utter balance watch this felt good felt out in the middle of the club  and we’ve just hit that 234 yards with what   you probably thought is very little effort  whatsoever now as I’m doing this and you do  

This for the first time you’re going to find  yourself losing balance sometimes and that’s   absolutely fine but what I’m doing here is  as those feet are together balls outside   this kind of lead foot here all I’m going to do  is keep swinging and I’m not trying to hit any  

Distance backwards and forwards and I promise  you what’s going to happen to your contact is   is as you keep swinging in Balance you’re going  to start hitting it out in the middle of the club   time and time again and more importantly when  you start to lose your balance you’re going to  

Immediately feel it okay so often all I’m doing  is focusing on keeping my head roughly against   that wall trying to return back back in front of  me here so I’m getting the pressure of those arms  

Not throwing here not over the top just simply  turning it back in front of me body uh body here   okay let’s have a look at this in action and  I’ll build up in a second so feet together toe

Out okay that felt really solid really yeah look  we’re up to 251 yards in total 100 miles hour with   the clubit speed and I’ve got my feet together  okay now what I’m doing here as I do this now  

You you’re not going to hit it necessar my club  speed is well over 100 miles hour normally right   but it’s not about increasing Club speed with  this it’s about improving the consistency of   your Arc and the consistency of your contact if  for the majority of golfers out there this will  

Immediately improve your consistency you  can go and play like this okay now all I   do now is is I’m going to test myself I’m  going to keep that ball outside that foot   here now all I’m going to do is now see if  I can still swinging balance but I’m going  

To swing now with a little bit more Pace to  this and that pace is going to want to take   me out of balance potentially so I’m going to  find my habits my habit would often be kind  

Of slid there what I’ve done with the club I’ve  dropped it behind it’s not on the circle anymore   so holding this here I really feel like I’m it  just giving me incredible training and we’ll  

Show you in a second how we expand this maybe  even to the irons as well in a second so let me   see I really ramp up this one here feet are  together again here toe out let’s give it a

Smash I really hit that one a little bit harder  St my feet together we’re up to 2 now 70 yards   with the feet together yeah so I could play golf  like that comfortably yeah now I want you to do  

The same so how do we expand this a little bit  well the whole purpose of this exercise isn’t   to try and hit those yardages initially is to  improve the quality of this circle and your low  

Point the point where you come back into the golf  ball all you do now bit by bit is is you start to   increase the width of your stance so you might  want to go okay now got maybe a club and a half  

Wids between my heels toes still pointing out  and now what I do is same principle here can   I still feel the same feelings here so what  I’m feeling here is this I don’t I one of my   problems sometimes is a little bit of this so  I’m really feeling my balance your yours might  

Be this a lot of slices kind of SL uh move this  way so again it’s training this motion you would   have felt this with your feet apart so you take  those feelings and ultimately all you do is just  

Give it a smash really focusing on your balance  and these feet look this is going to massive look   at that there 278 yards super comfortably now  before we finish look let me show you how this   really quickly works with the irons now the  slight change I make with ions ultimately is  

I get them unlike driver where the ball position  is on the outside of this kind of lead foot here   I get the ball more Central the other thing  I get them to do is to recognize like with a  

Driver kind of the club’s coming in almost like  a plane where the back wheels are landing so you   imagine a driver head you want the back of the  driver almost landing and then kind of hitting  

The ball on the way up with an iron ultimately  we want to strike the ball on the way down now   so we you know what I do get with my students  here is I get them to imagine the Leading Edge  

Of this club of the base here striking down on  the ground most of the time when people are not   really striking it very well or thinning it  and fatting it they’re generally hit in the  

Back edge here so all we do is that’s going to be  helped already just by having your feet together   ball position more Central but then I’ll get them  simply to pay attention I want you to the same to  

What part of the club is ultimately striking the  ground okay this is amazing then I’ll get him to   just hit some shots again same thing this is a  79 here feet together toe pointing outwards but  

But this time ball in the middle of my stance  I get some swings backwards and forwards I feel   myself losing balance brilliant I keep swinging  until I’m starting to swing in Balance notice by   the way I’m not staying dead still try staining  balance I am Swinging with freedom in my knees my  

Ankles my hips as much as you can based on your  flexibility and watch this it works with irons too okay nice and simple and there you go look  beautifully straight nice and simple now I love  

This not just for a driver not for irons but also  do it with your wedges I had the same issue with   my wedges a little bit of slide again all I  did was put my feet together and immediately  

I started to get the feedback necessary to get  those beautiful strikes it works with every single   Club in your bag it’s as old as Timeless drill  but I tell you do it properly make sure they  

Change those ball positions I promise you you’re  going to start to you can take it straight to the   golf course you’re going to start to see some big  improvements in the quality of your ball striking  

And your accuracy hope you enjoyed the video  if you did give it a thumbs up maybe share it   with one of your friends and of course look if  you’re new to the channel press that subscribe  

Button and the bell if you want to see how you can  really ramp up the power with your driver check   this one out the feedback on it with the YouTube  Community has been amazing I’ll see you next time

  1. Looks good definitely going to try this when I get back from holiday tomorrow, who knows maybe even on a golf course! Thanks 👍

  2. I think balance is key. I usually hit better drive’s when I finish balanced, however my stupid ego seems to want to hit driver 300mph😂😂😂. Example into the wind, I never hit a good drive because I’m always hitting it too bloody hard. The ball hooks low and hard. Great lesson Danny

  3. Brilliant as always Danny! Torpedo drives here I come!

    P.s loving the new bearded look! Cheers!

  4. Hi Danny

    My post is nothing to do with today’s video but a follow up to one a few weeks ago with your Leo and the towel drill leading to longer drives. Decided to try it out during my usual Wednesday game concentrating on high hands on the backswing and then whipping it down to the ball. I noticed three things:

    I was hitting it further, consistently outdriving my playing partners and on one occasion by 30 yards. One of my partners, who plays off 4, wondered out loud if I’d been bodybuilding! On one hole my drive measured 255 yards. Now, given the cold air temps and the very soft fairways, that’s not bad for someone nearing 69 and stands at 5’4”. Think what I could do in summer temps with the fairways firm. My target must be 280+?

    I was hitting the ball STRAIGHT! I believe with my previous ‘safe’ drives, I was getting ahead of the club maybe, leaving the clubhead behind me and therefore the face might be a bit open leading to a fade, a BIG fade or…..the gorse bushes!! I was actually hitting the ball down the left of the fairway this week probably because at address I was closing the clubface slightly to conteract the fade. So, the ball wasn’t going everywhere! The brain takes over and adjusts. I was just letting it go!

    The ball flight was much higher, with the ball in the air for longer. Again, if I’m not getting ahead of the club I feel I must be hitting up on the ball much more leading to a better ball flight??

    I have read posts from your subscribers who have got so excited at doing this or that on the course after following your video tips. I can now understand how they feel! It is SO exhilarating!

    So, if any of your subscribers managed to read to the end of this post, please just give it a go, you’ll be amazed.

    Thanks Danny.

  5. I'm hoping this video helps my driving. I've been practicing weekly and I still struggle with carry distance over 150 yards and total yards over 180 yards. It's been frustrating.

  6. Great video as usual Dan, I stuck my Driver away as fed up spraying it everywhere ! Had lesson in the week, I needed to get my arms straighter and softer grip, I had other way ‘round ! My coach said the straighter arms improves arc and gets posture taller. Swing was also too flat so got to get backswing higher and more vertical – check point arms swing under chin and but of club points at ball to target line halfway back. Over range tomorrow, and will implement what Lee, my coach has told me and build in your Driver arc / contact tips. All the best, Ken 😁👍
