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, Bryson Deshambeau 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.

Thanls for clarifiying this confusion
great way to explain natural correct wrist action coach
I was one of those ….don’t use your hands …taught guy until I ran across you and your library of good stuff and in that library you talked about using your hands and now I’m a better mover of the golf club because I use my hands
I like to think/feel my hands are naturally “hinging” and “unhinging “ with my arms moving in the swing and then at the ball unhinging or flipping … it’s a great powerful feeling letting your hands be part of the swing instead of being set in concrete …. Powerful
To flip or not to flip, that is the question…not no more my friend
Thanks Big’n
👍⛳️👍
Terrific video that shines a light on this. Some instructors are just trying, I think, to get people with little athletic ability or feel for the game to sort of 'bunt' the ball so they can at least keep the ball in play but it is a very limited way to play. I am 70+ yo and have always used a lot of hands and a long swing. I can usually keep up with all but the longest hitters of any age group and I can still play the back tees. Any time I have tried to limit hand action – other than when chipping or putting – it has been a disaster. Thanks for the work you do it is much appreciated.
Thanks Marcus, as always a concrete and simple to understand explanation. As for me, after 30 years of trying every type of swing I have finally simplified and above all understood what to do, now the training is starting to bear fruit. Thank you very much Marcus
Smart. Move the flip. Many many thx 👍.
Thanks! I have a question. I keep the lead arm relaxed, I push with my rear arm by bending then extending my elbow but I am pull hooking the ball. I am left handed and my path is -12 to -15 so I am coming way into out and my club face is closed to the path so the ball flight makes sense from the numbers. What would you suggest I try in order push draw not pull draw? Thank you.
a lot of people think they are flipping when they aren’t. They are steep and are trying to save the shot
Marcus, could you do a video with the arm rotation, shoulder rotation, and hip/body rotation all in one video? At least to a novice it seems they all operate on different planes.
YOU really needed this video? I really needed this video! I just don't buy the BS that "flipping" or "hand snap" requires such great precision that most of us just can't do it properly.
What percentage of club head speed do you think comes from wrists
If I don't flip… I won't hit it straight. It's that simple. If you roll your wrists, you will lose 3 or 4 balls a round, like me. Stick with the flip. But, flip after your hands pass the ball.
