Michael, with the bottom of the golf swing a couple of inches ahead of the ball, where do you focus your eyes on? The ball? A couple of inches ahead of the ball? Where please?

Nice one Michael as always !!!

Great video and drill

Great drill

Very cool Micheal

Awesome drill! This is my biggest problem, and this is a simple drill to start slowly at first and then make it more challenging as I go. Thank you. New sub for sure. Looking forward yo going through your collection to get better this summer.

I absolutely love that u do these videos. Thankyou so very much, i learn so much from you. You have really helped my game. Im currently a 1.2 hcp 👍

This is a real eye opener!!! I've tried this with a coin instead of a string, but never tried to swing easy, so I gave up. Now I see that maybe I stand a better chance for success if I work UP to a full swing🤩🤩

I have used the shoe lace before but now I use a cloth as I always have clothes with me to clean my ball or to clean my clubs. Great drill and I have suggested it to others.

Wow just do this 👏👏👏 thank you much 🍷🏌️‍♂️

Interesting seeing the forward angle of the shaft and the forward angle of your legs as you make contact.

If you think this drill is easy , try it for yourself, it’s infuriating for an early releaser like me , but you must stick at it, probably the most vital concept and skill to develop 👍

I've had success laying a towel on my mat and using the one ball away idea and it's really helped my ball contact. For me, it seems that I have to make sure that there's NO sway and make a decent turn. I had not heard the late straighten of the trial arm but it certainly makes sense. Thanks

That’s a great suggestion for me. Sway and a poor turn sounds like me. Thx!

Hi Michael. I am an avid listener to your Sirius Radio show - presently working on my strike point. My coach has me working with 'hips and hands beat the club head to the ball'. Between his instruction and this video, my 10,000 hours of practice😃to get my ball striking more consistent will be an adventure I am looking forward to.

I’ve also used a towel and/or a headcover to do this drill.

Hi, can put the tee instead of the string? Is it one club head or 8 inch distance ?

Hi Michael; During this video, you stressed shaft lean but not the body moving in front of the ball as well which helps create the lean of the shaft. Your body movement can be seen on the video but less experienced players may not notice it if they're concentrating only on the shaft. Also, would this drill be good for driver as well by being certain the clubhead does hit the string before beginning to travel up to the ball rather than hitting it on the downswing. The string drill for irons is great & what I struggle with because I tend to pick the ball off the turf rather than taking a divot in front where it belongs. I don't thin it but I don't hit the ball 1st. Ball position maybe or shallow attack angle? Thanks for your great videos. I used to watch you on the golf channel. Be well!

Out of curiosity what is the loft on that 6 iron u are using?

The only way I can achieve this is roll my left ankle counterclockwise behind me while holding a good angle

Just put a towel down. Way easier. 😆
