An excellent, very helpful lesson. I have been playing for 30 years & did NOT realise there were TWO swings. I have had many lessons from professional golfers but nobody told me there was a difference between a driver & an iron swing. I knew I had to hit up with my driver & down with my irons. Age 78 years & still learning. Many thanks to Danny & Liam.

Showing his swing arc at the beginning was great. Then he listened carefully to your instruction and applied it. Having the obstacle helped him make the swing adjustment quickly. I could tell how pleased he was knowing there are different swing paths for irons and driver. Something I will be working on soon. I just found an indoor golf center in a city nearby, so I plan to try it while the ice melts around here (northern NY, near Montreal).

Love your over the shoulder series. Liam is a great student and this lesson perfectly describes how the average Joe is on/off with irons/driver. Grooving the swings to what you are hitting is no more complicated than using a different swing for putting versus irons versus wedges versus driver versus fairways/hybrids. As we learn to adjust the game gathers it’s wonderful multi-dimensional aspect.

Thank you Keith

Thank you for simplifying the swing instructions! Now out to the course and range to improve.

This used to be ME! Driver was a big sweeping draw. Irons, I struggled with consistent strike, and direction. I stepped in a little closer to the ball, at setup, and just visualized swinging steeper. Left tilt helps with this, on backswing. Also, raising my arms higher during backswing is a good thought. And, just like Danny said, think up, instead of around. Now, you’re in the perfect position(plane) for the downswing. Just swing down, under, and through. This is where right side bend comes in. The down part keeps me in posture, and stomp weight into my left foot. The under gives you the right side bend/left side extension. The through makes you not forget to rotate, and finish with hips open, and chest facing the target. This changed my game, in the last year, or so.

Thank you Jamie for your very helpful comment. Step in closer & swing steeper. Up rather than round. Raise arms higher for irons.

One of the things I still struggle with on course is hitting behind the ball with the irons.

Any advice or other videos you can point me to. Thanks so much DM. You've been a huge help to my game.

Very impactful because it's simple.

Now, if I can only get that 240 carry driver swing. I've changed so much about my swing based on your lessons, I'm now knuckle-balling my driver (not swaying into impact formerly, so almost topping the ball with a good swing.) Thanks!
