What can we expect from a golf simulator and what can we bring out in to the real game outdoors?

Let me help you get an effortless golfswing with speed and accuracy. I call it the circle of speed. A good release will help you to a better impact and longer drives and irons without slice and hook. How to swing a golf club need to be adjusted to your skill level and experience.
Long and straight is the goal for everyone but it takes time. Try to focus on one thing not everything when you practise. Impact, face control and swingpath will always be the most important part to drill. We focus too much on rotation but no good golf shot will be executed just by rotating.
I’m naturally right handed but all my tips works for both left handed and right handed golfers playing either way.
We also need to understand that many myths in golf are misleading. Everything that you find on the internet isn’t true. Ben Hogan, Sam Snead are two of the legends that are often misunderstood. To understand golf we need to take it step by step and learn every part of the swing before we move on to the next. It’s like a big jigsaw puzzle that we all can figure out.
Some pro’s that hit draw: Rory McIroy, Xander Schauffele, Patrick Reed, Sepp Straka and many, many more.
We shall not keep our head still, only start with the hips, look only at the ball or keep the left or right arm straight. Understand what do do with the club and let your body find the best way possible.
If you use callaway, ping, titleist or taylor made clubs doesn’t matter you can learn to hit good golf shots. Your loft or your shaft on the club will not change but you can always get better.
Find what inspires you. Golf basics are the same for everyone. The pga tour, longdrivers or other good golfers can all help you find better golf shots. Watch what they do instead of listed to what they say. Listen mostly to your body and figure out what you need to do to produce the same results as the pros on TV. Be careful when you watch a golf swing in slow motion. The result isn’t always what the golfer is trying to do. Feel and real are seldom the same.
Mike Malaska, Mike Austin, Mike Dunaway, Pete Cowen and Steve Pratt are some of my favorite golf instructors online. Find the tips that make your golf better. Decide what you want to hit. I teach a draw but many like a fade and nobody likes a hook or slice.
Your hips or your lag is not the key to golf. Your hands will decide the shot and you can do like Tiger Woods and trust your hands. Teach your hands to hit different shots. Hit big hooks and slices to understand what happens. Only straight is not gonna teach you anything.
Bryson Dechambeu and Kyle Birkshire can inspire you to hit it longer. Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson can give you inspiration and motivation to test new things and new golf shots. Linn Grant, Viktor Hovland and Ludvig Aberg can show you the future of golf.
The Masters, Players Championship, The Players, The Open and US Open can make you love golf even more. See the best in the world solve all the problems we all need to master any golf course. Golf is a craft and you need fantasy, feel and skills to master it.

Indoor simulator, perfect conditions, no wind, consistent temperature, balls warm, consistent temperature, and less pressure. Unfortunately on the course we all have a habit of getting to quick, that's when the inconsistency starts.
Well said Marcus. Calibration is critical, and so is the ball used in the simulator. Problem?? Take your own balls that you usually use. Some operators use different balls to ensure longevity thus reducing costs. And, those balls might not reflect actual distance.

Marcus, I have a question on grip pressure. Out of 10 how firm do you grip? I used to hold it lightly because that’s what most pros teach ‘hold it like a bird’. Recently seen a pro recommend a very firm grip so I tried it, say 9 out of 10. My ball striking improved massively
Foresight GC2, why are you not using the club data thing that you can buy extra?
I have found simulators, over the years, consistently cheat me out of 10-15 yards with all clubs.
Would the circle of speed be executed differently if I have a flat back swing due to my height when when using a longer club like a 3 wood? Or should I avoid longer clubs?
Your the best , Marcus. Thanks for all you do. To help us get better.
Marcus is it too nasty outside there in Sweden to show some putting
I’ve add your premise of using my trail hand more into my putting stroke and it’s really helped out
Can you chime in on that
👍⛳️👍
Marcus, I’m feeling the scoop release really good with wedges and irons. But I have a hard time feeling it with woods and drivers. Any thoughts?
Driver should match well with coarse. But mats improve bad impact so much you really need the towel to train impact. That is my take. This happens on range as well when one does not hit off of grass.
Can you explain? What is the differance between hitting down with an iron, and scooping it?
