    Simple. Straightforward. Correct. And this will cure so many other problems people have. If you start with a bad set-up, your body will always be compensating, creating faults from there out. Thanks Mike.

    Applied the whole routine ( setup and throwing the club head ) to my game yesterday for every club in the bag, and had my best ball striking game for at least 10 years. Have tried many of your tips with limited success, but this one worked a treat. Now just need to get more confidence with my short game & putting.

    I've never understood before setting up with a down-cocked wrist. I think because my wrist isn't that flexible in the downward direction. But at least now, it makes sense to me. Thanks Mr. M.

    I started taking lessons about three months ago, and my swing has improved dramatically. We worked on swing path, club impact, tempo, mobility, etc... and I improved. However, my accuracy wasn't really where I wanted it to be. I tried this trick today and my accuracy went from 5 out of 10 to about 8 out of 10. The ball seemed to carry further and I even had a little bit of a draw. It was amazing. At least in my irons. My driver still needs work. Great lesson!!

    Mike: I lost my golf swing for years trying the stack and tilt swing, one plane swing, etc, etc. Then started watching you and strengthened my left hand, used the throwing motion with the right as in your video lesson teaching how to stop rotation and just pretended I was swing at the ball to hit now I'm hitting everything 10-15 yards further and more often than not flusher and straighter with almost no effort as you said you can. Basically I and a lot of people have over complicated the instinctive golf swing we know how to do. Thanks for all the great simplified youtube lessons. Great instruction!!

    Thanks, I was just discussing this issue. In my thoughts, it was about posture and engaging the knee bend to help set the distance, but I like your way of setting the clubface in and then adjust, and it should help with a pre-shot routine that is easily repeatable.

    Love this. I think I am keeping to much angle in my wrist instead of letting the club drop. Can’t wait to try!

    That all i need. Set up right left wrist then line then left hip space to move when downswing, that all balance i understand from your setup routine.

    Hello mr. Malaska, thanks for this great explication. Just started with the woods and this was exactly what i needed. I am expecting this works the same for a hybrid, a new club for me which I cannot get used to.

    Used this with my Hybrid and 5 Wood, both clubs I could never get used to. After this tip, I’ve never hit so many proper shots with those clubs! This tip is gold.

    Hello mike, what do you think about doing a swing behind the ball using the g force and see where it touches the ground naturally then move all the body, arm block from this spot?
