wait...what? You want to start your downswing with your arms? What the heck happened to lag? Starting a downswing with your arms will more times than not result in a pull. I'm a weekend golfer and I know this.

Downswing starts from hips not arms.

@hwatsky I agree, seems a little akward to start the downswing with the arms.

I hit both the driver and iron using your tips today and they come good. The slices are gone. Many many thanks Tim....

At first I was what? Get your arms swinging? What the hell?

I went to the driving range and tried it. WOW. No more spinning my shoulders open and coming over the top. Put me into the slot swinging from the inside everytime. Hit driver after driver dead straight with a 5 yard draw. Awesome!

Thanks Tim

Thanks, Tim - I'm a mid hdcpr - that helps my over-the-top - esp. the lowering of the right shoulder on the downswing. With a quieting of the chest at 3:22 it's a bit harder now to get my weight returning to my front foot at impact. Ideas ? ~Bob

Best video I've seen on golf instruction. I hope golfers in your area take a lesson from you.

They won't be wasting there money. Thank you.

Hey I never really comment on videos but the tips you gave were so effective I just had to at least say thank you.

Do you do videos on requested questions?

This is the correct action for a draw with the driver. If you maintain your wrist angles and keep your left shoulder back correctly; the ball will draw every time. If you combine this with a flip of the wrists at the bottom you will pull it every time. Work on maintaining your wrist angles and the pull will disappear.
