  • Hi Paul. I've really struggled lately with topping my fairway woods and now it's spread to my irons. Yikes! My husband tells me that what you describe and show about the "chicken wing" is what I look like. Does that mean I'm standing to close to the ball and that's why my arms don't fully extend? Thanks

  • You want the best ( I mean the very best ) tip about golf ? I mean a tip that will definately improve your golf game tremendously ? here it is.

    If you are serious about improving then forget everything you have seen regarding golf instruction on " You-Tube " then focus on Paul in this video.

    He is the best and he has contributed enough instruction to help every aspect of your game, learn from him and him alone and there is no question whatsoever you will improve by leaps and bounds.

  • Hi Paul, thanks for the video. I played today and REALLY struggled with my 3 Wood topping it.

    Your pointers on why are very accurate. 1. Trying to make up for lost ground/Going for Par 5 in 2 strokes. 2. Lifting head too early in anticipation of hoping for "that one in a million" shot of perfection...making up for lost ground/going for par 5 in 2 strokes!

    and 3. Due to lifting of the head your arms lift and tense up causing poor posture through the shot.

    Thanks very much! Road to recovery!

  • that was very good advise took notes and going to the driving range tomorrow good man thanks

  • what you are saying makes perfect sense. Man I wish you were teaching in the southern California area.

  • Thank you! It is really simple and works for me the best.

  • Ball position please?

  • very helpful and well explained. your scenario is my exact thinking. "trying to make up ground for previous mistakes" LOL. thats why i dont use a 3 wood any more. o.O

  • Thank you for explaining it so patiently to a novice like me

  • Great video...you take the time to explain fully...thank you!

  • Hi Paul - Great video as usual- especially the explanation about the proper position post-impact. That tip alone has cured me of my 20-years of chicken-winging. Conventional wisdom says to sweep the fairway wood club head across the grass, but I top the ball about 50% of the time with that swing thought. Some say you should actually hit down slightly on the ball and it's OK to take a small divot - what say you?

  • Most times I can hit the ball off the fairway, but seem to go through phases of topping it, mostly when in competition and I'm nervous. I feel I get so tense and nearly frightened to actually take a swing at the ball. But this video makes sense and I shall try to follow your tips tomorrow. Thanks

  • Im glad your not afraid to bend your left elbow at the top of that practice swing. I tend to concentrate on my backswing and end up rushing into the down transistion. By doing that I was able to focus more on the release. Some instructors think that they swing like a pro just because the work with them. Good video

  • You sir are a legend, all your videos make perfect sense, I for one thankyou ;0)

  • your videos are really helpful! thanks!

  • Do you think you can reshoot this video with better audio like your other videos have?

  • ball position?

  • Revolution golf is a great website. It has some great golf advice, it has helped my game beyond measure!

  • Great video, I just realised that I didnt have a straight left arm and I actually tried to kill it everytime I hit a fair way wood!!

  • this is probably the most informative lesson I have ever watched - thanks

  • Hi Paul Just found this video and it explains all my faults, the ones I didn't know about. Many thankss\

  • Swing easy? Thats sometimes not easy.

  • EXCELLENT WITH ONE EXCEPTION. THE WIND NOISE IS DISTRACTING. MY VIDIO RECORDER HAS A WIND ADJUSTMENT. YOUR INSTRUCTION IS BETTER THAN ANY I HAVE SEEN BEFORE, AND I'VE SEEN A LOT. THANKS GARY

  • Thank you. Fine explanation. Is it the same when I top with my iron?
