We’re finding now the best players who’ve ever lived did it very different they weren’t on a range keeping the red still they were itting four irons on a beach they were like sevy with a four Robert Rock work with a nine iron and a five iron in a in a football field and

These guys uh weren’t in your typical environment being coached in a generic kind systematic way they were doing different stuff they were it’s a seriously complex thing a god s but you don’t have to think about it in its complexity it’s like you do the exercises and we just let movement take

Its natural effect we kind of want to get out of the way of trying to instruct ourselves and just enjoy the experience of moving and just actually reflect on what it’s producing what we’re doing is we’re educating you to make better decisions in how you change your

Movement yeah that’s all it is I have to say um it’s probably not helped me watching a lot of YouTubes cuz it’s it’s confused me a bit so whereas in the past I might have had I might have been fairly fixed on what I was doing but at

The minute my mind’s all over the place is it yeah so I’m thinking about too many things taught me through your swing thought process okay so I’m trying to bend this left knee on the back and then at the right time I’m thinking okay that feels right

So I’ll come through and i’ I’ve I’ve been of late trying to come down a bit on it so let’s uh and I used to particularly with my driver trying cuz people always say you start here I know you press forward and what but also try and finish there so

You start so yeah in the past I’ve thought about that but of late as I say I’m I’m uh probably not playing to my handicap so okay so I’m struggling a bit I’m short of distance obviously by comparison to to appear you know the lag

Yeah I’d like to know how to do that or what it is I need to do that okay I know it’s the dropping and popping at the right time and leaving the club back when I’m coming through but you know the I know yeah and and I know when I do it

As well you get the extra distance as well yeah you get that sling shot yes yeah so uh it’d be nice to come away with that markers oh look at that same again now the pull obviously is going to go a bit further cuz you’ve got you delofting it

A bit Yeah essentially we want as much ball speed as possible for our club spe and that’s depends on how your STW K so when you strike a bit more down what this is telling us already is if you tend to strike that way a little bit all

Right nor y so your strike might be as you can see hi guys the JF travel Club is revisiting the glory resort we’re in Turkey from the 10th to the 15th of March four star venue amazing courses five nights four days of coaching with myself and one of the JF staff Plus on

The course with our JF Tour player Mark Foster we’ve got six places guys follow the link in description and we look forward to seeing you there off the bottom of the club the ones that go straight at that net are like 15 yards less so it’s a bit of a tradeoff when

You do get the swing online you’re losing 15 yards when you actually pull it you go a lot further so we know already the the potential is there to strike down it’s just we got to get in the right direction and then we can

Start to see if we can ramp up the club speed a little bit more we’re going to start to think of it as a motion because what you’re doing at the moment is you’re swinging to a position yeah so there’s a place you you flow and then

You kind of stop and then it all kind of goes together we find it now the best players who’ve ever lived did it very different they weren’t on a range keeping the red still they were itting four irons on a beach they were like SE

With a four Robert Rock work with a nine iron and a five iron in a in a football field um these guys uh weren’t in your typical environment being coached in a generic kind of systematic way they were doing different stuff are you natur right handed yeah and right footed yes

Okay cool just Gip it with both hands for me what I want you to do is I want you to swing the foot from side to side okay now we’re going to do the same thing we want this to travel more than this yeah but the hands are going to

Travel further so that can’t travel very watch This okay all right that’s hard and guess what that is that’s lag you don’t feel that but already form of that and you go s you’re not even starting to feel lag that’s the stability in your theability whereas you will Li here actually in this but this is

Wild okay and that’s that you’ve lost all your lag straight away you’re just losing lag to move the club as opposed to here it’s lagging all the time right so you’ve got to get used to moving more do it later you can let it snap later there you go

You can let the handle go for longer and then snap it later think so think there later later later way later yes over here you can snap it that’s it that’s it now you’ve got now that’s lag what we can start to do with this now is we can

Start to educate ourselves in how to use the body so the body’s doing the same thing as well from the feet with your toes all the way through to the club the whole thing is just one big giant whip it’s a chain lovely look at that it started to

Shift your weight you see I always feel like the hips are going like over there perfect they need to do they of course they do I’m thinking they got to spin rather than move so you this is where you can rotate you see you can turn you turn back turn through with your

Hips look at that I really don’t feel that that was I was always aiming away from that yeah I was saying cuz I’m thinking too much lateral movement there try to control it yeah yeah just start to synchronize it so you can start to use the board to

Help you crack the whip back and through that’s it you can time it look at that it’s too fast yeah so you you’ll start to recognize yourself when it’s out of time perfect you’ve had so much tension in your arms to control this gol Club you’ve not actually let yourself use the swing

Wave yeah yeah keep losing grip to get think if you drop in the middle drop and pop drop and pop drop and Pop I reckon we could do this without going into other stuff so here keep eye contact now don’t look anywhere else just guess what I’m

Doing so it’s in the middle so you drop the n and drop the pop and your pop is the your pop to rotate you drop ready and then pop to rotate and then drop and then pop to rotate there you go and then you can start to just blend it in drop

Them drop them there you go nice that great think of yourself as a piston you’re going down and up down and up look at my head I’m going up down and up down and up there you go use your hips to do that now use your pelvis Drop

Pop so the part give me the GL there where you are put your hands on your hips there there your hip flexes that’s the bit that’s going up and down now the pop gives you the twist pop drop and pop drop and pop drop and pop there you

Go perfect that’s how move little water it look how easy it is to rotate drop and pop now so let it drop now you go drop the pop and again use the bit where we touched earlier on the hips that’s the key let the arms

Drop let the arms drop now and after you go with the hips hold it there don’t move nice and Tall so you’re using this you let the arms drop and use that you go let the arms drop now use the hips go brilliant brilliant yes man these hips are moving

Your P that’s the engine fantastic you actually just need to play you just need to swing with your hips you just need to use that for your swing that’s what swings it back that’s what swings it through look at that there you go let it swing and then you

Just let then when you make a bigger swing that’s just through rotation that’s giving now let your body respond with rotation to make a bigger ark go let it go let it just build it up let it up that’s it and then let it go

Into a finish now let your arms drop and that’s your golf swing there you go perfect look at that that’s fantastic look at that oh I’m never look at that okay beautiful nice shot awesome what a golf shot wow now look how far that’s FW flew over it by about easy 10

15 yards and you were just Landing it in the net or just short of it earlier yeah was look at that golf shot what a shot the net again blew the net way over the net spring into the finish that finish is awesome there you go see the right no

It’s on the 150 now look is it just so it’s just right to the 150 and not didn’t actually go 150 it went about 135 but it went High okay I’m showing you the this the direction it went between the 100 and 15 but it went up in the

Cloud Let It Drop now look at that shot sh different stride different swing and it lets you now this gives you now an opportunity to use everything we’ve been training this spring fantastic Let It Drop look at there’s some zip to it again you tried harder though it’s

Actually still yeah but you tried a bit harder you put bit more in if you know if you want to put more in yeah right you don’t put more in you push off you got to use your drop and pop you got a pop more to you

Finish that’s it yeah like that bloody hell still going better hang time was there flight was there different feeling yeah yeah yeah yeah it feels more like I’m hitting the ball as opposed to sort of babying it if you like yeah you you just yeah a bit careful too

Careful it all looks like I used to spend a lot of time one room where the ball was whereas it’s the club seems to be finding the ball yeah she is able to move and adapt in the moment just like a moving ball how you

Know where to be with a moving ball you know your body’s moving and it’s making all those fine adjustments in the moment you’re looking at the ball and this has it nowhere to put your foot you don’t have to look and put your foot CU if you

Look to go and put your foot somewhere for a ball that’s coming it’s too late it’s gone you’re looking and how does your body know where to put the foot it’s doing the same thing in your go swing cuz you’re giving it a chance now your your mind somewhere else and

Allowing your body to react same thing this is a reaction So

  1. What a fantastic piece of coaching this is – unbelievable transformation- Marcus you are a the legend 👍😎🏌️‍♂️

  2. You boys are teaching students the correct way, nit the nonsense others are teaching just to make a buck and keep you coming forever. Thanks for honest coaching. Cheers.

  3. Looking at his new swing I’ll be amazed if he doesn’t drop his handicap considerably. Be interesting to get a follow up from him (and others) I still regret being one of GRF’s failures.

  4. Like the dynamic qualities of GRF….was wondering how this applies to rear .centre .and front poster golfers as identified by Mke Adams…..?thanks very much..great to see the results gained by this golfer!!!

  5. Marcus , Does the ground up move the shoulders ? Shoulders don't move until the lower moves them ?
    Also grip pressure ( hold ) lean more on the lighter side, then firm ? Pressure will always adjust in ones swing automatically to handle the task .
