Hi Tom! Buzz Cardone here. I was extensively into your instructions and school. They were nothing but incredible!! Then i ran into some health problems with my heart and my lungs and had to take a couple years off. But I'm coming back, hopefully. I'm 84 now, and can't expect too much, but i still LOVE your instructions. They're not only totally helpful, they're fun to watch and do. I'm just starting back now and I'm hopeful that i can get out next summer with my son's and grandsons and won't be embarrassing to have along. I can thank you for improving my game very much, and giving me the confidence to go out there and do it!!! God bless you Tom, and please keep it coming.

Tom, I can’t thank you enough. I’m 53, I just started playing about a year ago and this whole time I’ve watched several different KZread videos by just as many instructors and getting absolutely nowhere. No improvement whatsoever. A few days ago I finally decided to listen to one instructor and that was you because I thought you were pretty funny and you talked about Ben Hogan quite a bit. I got tired of trying to look like a “ballerina“. Laughed my butt off when I heard that one. No lie, after two days of practicing using foam balls in the yard and utilizing your techniques, I played nine today and smashed every ball as crispy as KFC. My score, 60 for nine holes sucked but that was all due to terrible putting and some bad chip shots. The way I was hitting every ball I couldn’t care less about the score. Every Single technique was so helpful. I also think you channel Jack Nicklaus a bit. Anyway, I don’t mean to go on. Just know that you have made a a lifetime golfer out of me. Well, about a quarter lifetime. Thanks again!

Tom, I stumbled across your video when seeking help with my golf swing. I am so grateful I found your videos because my game has improved so much over a short time period. Previously, I received a lot of bad instructions but your videos straightened out my swing!

I am new to SAbuto's stak+tilt and i m kicking my self because i kept seeing Saguto's vidoes on youtube but never really watching him, thinking maybe he is a little too crazy but you know what? he cured my irons, i m a normal dude and i m not getting paid to say this but i can krisp my irons all of them!!! I am still working on my driver and hybrid, i m getting real good connection but i think i am not moving my body forward enough and i m slicing it, i m playing a round tomorrow and i have a few tips im going to try, needed this video to come out earlier really :D

I truly appreciate your kind words, and I'm thrilled to know that my channel's instruction has benefited your game to such an extent. Perhaps some day soon we might see you in the online school??... The driver will come around for you. It's not uncommon to have great success with the irons while the big dog lags behind a bit. If it continues to challenge you we can work through it either in the school or with a V1 Swing Video Analysis. Anyway, thanks again for sharing your success, keep up the great work, and have fun out there tomorrow!! Tom

I truly appreciate the kind words and online school testimonial, @Tmoo moore, and I'm very glad to learn of your results to date!! You'll get the driver straightened out (and long) - it just takes a bit of time to adjust to the length of the club and the need to keep the hips traveling laterally a greater distance in the downswing due to the wider stance. If you search the word "Driver" in the school's Members' Forum you'll see that you're definitely not alone in this regard, and you may also find some helpful information in some of those threads as well. Beyond that, perhaps tomorrow's driver episode may spark something for you. Thanks again for your support, keep up the great work, and keep having fun out there!! Tom

I mean, tell the girl your enterprise is dependent on the chops because it keeps your students from chopping; this will satisfy any capitalist woman. The driver off the deck helps so much with the swing path and the tempo of the swing; you have to be focused and smooth, and staying down and through the shot.

Hi Tom, love your video’s but have a big question for you: my pro instructors says stack&tilt is good for people with a stronger left leg, but if your right leg is stronger it’s better not to use that technique, but rather to push off from your right leg, ie. especially with driver to get more distance. What is your opinion?

@danielwitonski6024

I like the s&t concept but it puts a lot of torque on my left leg. At 71 years old it’s an awkward feeling and I probably flinch or adjust during the swing. Is there any suggestions that I can do such as a hybrid of a s&t and a regular swing?

@SagutoGolf

3 жыл бұрын

Once you have the downswing working properly and approaching from the inside, ball flight rules - aka shot shaping - are a function of clubface as it relates to path and target line. Clubface relative to target line dictates the ball's starting line, and face relative to path determines direction and degree of curvature. I recently added a robust course on the shot shaping grid to the online school There is no active manipulation of the face in this swing. Any contrived effort to "square the face" at impact will only breed inconsistency. Check out these channel videos for more in this regard: - kzread.info/dash/bejne/eJlmzbNtZMTgepc.html - kzread.info/dash/bejne/hamipbRupa3FkdI.html At address the hands are even with the inside of the lead thigh. Depending on the type of shot we are trying to hit, ball position will then dictate whether - and by how much - the clubface is open or closed to the target line and intended path. You may be interested in looking into the SagutoGolf online school. For just $10 US/month or $99 US/year you'll have unlimited access to a comprehensive members-only learning system for the full swing along with the finer points - including that recently added course on the S&T Shot Shaping Grid which is designed to: 1) help members read and interpret their ball flight, 2) understand how to make adjustments/corrections, and 3) learn how to carve shots in both directions.

Hi Ronald, Even if you are unable to load weight onto your lead side, you would still do well to have a stacked and centered swing in which pressure may move into your trail side, but not to the point that you feel like you are shifting or swaying. You should still be able to tilt, turn, and extend while doing this. Here is a video I did on Tiger's swing in more recent times: kzread.info/dash/bejne/X4V8mMaklpPefrQ.html While he still moved weight onto his trail side, he was stacked and never lost his center. (I did a more detailed analysis of his swing in a separate video for my online school members.) By the way, swing I teach is a very body-friendly method, and there is some tolerance for individual nuances. For me this is supported by my personal experience as a player and furthered by the fact that the majority of my students are in their 60's, 70's, and 80's - i.e.: a smorgasbord of chronic ailments, physical limitations, back/shoulder/knee/hip pain, and joint replacements - and they are overwhelmingly elated to experience the dramatic pain-free game improvement, seemingly effortless power, and resulting enjoyment that this swing affords them. Should you wish to give this swing a fair shot by learning it properly, please consider enrolling in the SagutoGolf online school. For just $10 US/month or $99 US/year you'll have unlimited access to a comprehensive members-only platform that really simplifies the process through succinct, step-by-step videos, and I'm regularly adding new content.

Hey Tom, I’m curious if you might know why I tend to hit the ball in the heel with driving. Unless I set up the ball at the toe instead of in the center of the club face. Any idea why that is? I had a trackman session that I found the center of the club face, but only when I setup at the toe. Face is usually open too, more than my in to out spin. I’d say my miss is push right, unless I severely close the club face which does happen

@SagutoGolf

Heel strikes can potentially result from a path that is too much in-to-out, but there are other possibilities as well so it's really not possible for me to diagnose without seeing your swing. There are entire sections of my online school dedicated to resolving common swing, contact, and ball flight issues. Have you looked into it? Here's a link if you would like to know more about the school - saguto.golf Also, I do offer V1 Swing Video Analysis lessons as they are instrumental to the progress of my school's members, and these can be done for anyone from anywhere across the globe, school member or not. This enables me to put my eyes on your swing and offer some very specific observations and corrective action plans if applicable. The process involves downloading the free V1 app and then submitting two videos to me through the app - one down-the-line (captured from your stance line, not the target line) and the other face-on. You'll find more information about the V1 Analysis on this page of my website site: saguto.golf/p/lessons TS

Tom do you have a drill to stop flipping the hands with the driver. 3 or 4 holes a round I tend to hook the ball which stops me from breaking 80. Can't score par when hitting from the trees.

It's an interesting scenario, but you're definitely not alone! Just ask PGA Champion Phil... Short of saying that you need to train your trail hand to hit - which I realize may be difficult - I would recommend you work on maintaining your connections and allowing the lower body to bring you into impact. This Hogan video may help to give you a visual in this regard: kzread.info/dash/bejne/m5metLmhpaWdqZs.html. Also, even though this impact video lesson focuses on maintaining the angle between your trail arm and the club shaft, it may help you feel impact in a different way that prevents your dominant lead hand from getting out of control: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eJlmzbNtZMTgepc.html One of the keys in your situation is to not allow that strong arm - which probably seems to have a mind of its own in anxiously wanting to take over when you're trying to bust one - to jump ahead of the lower body and throw the entire downswing out of sequence, because if it does you're likely taking regular trips to Pull-Slice City. If you can train it instead to trail the lower body to the point where the shaft is parallel to the ground on the way down, then you should be in position to hit hard with the dominant hand as if it were a tennis backhand shot or throwing a frisbee. This is a members’ forum post by a student in my online school specific to this very issue: “I found a great tip in the Power Distance section. If you are a natural lefty that plays golf right-handed (or vice versa) this is a breakthrough! Retract your lead shoulder during the downswing as hard as you retract your trail shoulder in the backswing. You will be amazed the speed you generate! It is also a very natural motion. Tom Saguto really knows this swing. Young man is a genius.” It’s all there waiting for you for just $10 US/month or $99 US/year.

Good luck on your date !!! Let us know how it went !!!

I have watched several of your videos. You say it just doesn't feel right ( proper set up ) and your right. My 1st year of golf was at the driving range. Then hit the courses the following year. Long story short I went out with this millionaire I fix all his refrigeration equipment he brought this guy from the Canadian Senior tour. Told him what I explained here he goes ok! everyone should do that. 1st 9 holes he didn't say anything back 9 he set me straight. Exactly what you said with the driver and stance. DONT MOVE YOUR LEFT FOOT!!!!! just the right ( other video ). I am looking at him saying this shit don't feel right then he is like move your hands forward, I am like this isn't going to fking work. He goes swing. Then BAMMMMMMM! I did not even feel the ball come off the club head. He did that on everyone of my shot's , it just don't feel right but it is. It's very very hard to get used to.

Wooohoooo!!! This is definately what I needed! Gonna have to make mashed potatoes and KFC crispy drives when I return from the desert of Nevada! Hopefully, I hope my luck is better on the course than in the casinos! 🤣

Hi Jeremiah, This Driver Off the Deck Drill should help you if you keep working on it. It provides instant feedback for sure! There has been quite a bit of dialogue in the Members' Forum of my online school on the topic of how to transport "Ranger Rick" to the golf course. We all experience that! All I can tell you is that it is part of the process, and if your practice mode is delivering consistently solid results then it's just a function of time in terms of when/how that will translate itself to the course. As confidence in your swing grows you should find more and more that you are playing "golf" instead of "golf swing" on the course, at which point your mechanical thoughts will be reduced to one or two at the most, and you will be nearly entirely focused on your target and not your swing. An excellent book that may help you with this is "Fearless Golf: Conquering the Mental Game" by Dr. Gio Valiante. Beyond that, I'd love to see you in the online school and participating regularly in the highly supportive SagutoGolf Community that is growing into something quite special in our Forum! Cheers! Tom

hey Saguto, martin van buren called...he wants his burns back. all kidding aside, thanks for the tips.

Every time I address the ball now i make sure my upper arms are glued to my chest. My swing thoughts are: hit this KFC Crispy and it'll take me to the land of milk and honey lol. Tonight I went out and shot even par for 9 holes. 7 pars, 1 birdie and unfortunately I bogied the final hole. I took 8 iron on the 9th hole and pured it so crispy it was overdone and flew the green. I chipped to 8 feet but missed the putt. The shot was so crispy it was overcooked. My 9 iron would have been the right club with this extra crispy contact. Thanks Tom, striking it better than ever thanks to you and your golf tips.
