This explanation is superb i now realize how we need to apply pressure to the back of the ball by applying pressure to the handle of the club via right hand arm elbow and right wrist just in case others have been making the same mistake as i have i have been getting to p6 alright but then hands and arms stall and i hit down on the ball in a hitting down motion which we all have heard hit down on the ball at some point in time i scoop and have a discusting outside to in swing and the ball goes nowhere your explanation has cleard this hugh mistake up for me and i hope my explanation of how i get to p6 and then screw it up might be of help to others putting pressure against a sold object with the clubhead as you recommend was extremely helpful in feeling the pressure you described rather than a hit cant wait to put this knowledge into action at the first possible chance Tks for sharing your incredible knowledge and your time with us who love the game and want to get better

Next to "you have to figure out what works for you" this right elbow (for right-handed golfer) applying pressure concept is best single piece of golfing advice I extracted from the hundreds of Scratch Golf Academy videos I watched. You are one in a million Adam Bazalgette!!

Perfect timing when I saw this video. After literally dozens of years I have never been able to correct the high ball flight and often hitting the ground first. I knew my strike was off but dragging the back of the club and starting the club down with handle down has been mostly what I have tried. I started to experiment a couple of weeks ago with bringing the entire V of my arms forward in the swing and have hit some of the longest and best flighted balls I've ever hit, but I was uncertain and insecure with what I have been working on. Your video today and a video of my own swing confirmed a technique that I believe will improve my game significantly. Your the only coach I watch and I greatly appreciate your videos. I would love to spend a week at a golf camp with you and your staff.

Mr. Bazalgette, you’re truly a phenomenal teacher. I wish you were in SoCal so I could spend a few hours in your tutelage. You have no idea how much you have helped me not only understand the mechanics of the golf swing but actually apply it. I hadn’t played golf for many years while in the military after leaving my game with a nasty slice. Went to visit my Dad and we played 9 holes in a 4’some and I was almost always the only one in the middle of the fairway. No practice, just mentally knew what I needed to do to fix my slice thanks to you. Shot a 42 in 9 holes, never broke 90 in my life. You are the man!

Adam as a new member of Scratch Golf I found this re-enforced something I have been working on for about three weeks now. I have been working on the feeling of my right elbow moving into the slot and at impact of not having the trail (Right Arm) fully extended at that point and feeling the arm more relaxed. After watching this video and studying your and pro's right wrist being slightly flexed back, I found what has helped me achieve that easier is to feel the bony pad part of the right hand exerting pressure on the left (lead) hand at the bottom of the thumb. Feeling that part of the right hand pushing into the back of the left thumb makes that trail hand bend back more. Many thanks for a great explanation of this move.

I’ve been introduced to the right elbow thing very recently on my own watching Ben Hogan swings. The part that interested me most was the comparison to throwing a ball and how the body/arm move in that process. Since then, I’ve started applying this technique for my irons and most of the time I’m amazed with the results. I want to try it with the driver and excited to see how it goes.

It’s not the elbow position that is key it’s the shaft location relative to the downswing plane and angle of approach. If the shaft is firmly on the correct plane the elbow will by definition pass through the proper “location”. As you watch the swing from behind you will see it comes down , out and forward through impact to low point. Then it travels from low point up and in. You have provided an excellent video which portrays the proper positions and that is much appreciated. Your work is top quality. Cheers. F

Thanks for the great video. I struggle more with irons than hybrids, fairway woods or driver. I tend to move the club a bit outside which sometimes means I strike the ball with the inside (near the hosel) which creates a horrible shot. I only do this with irons. I just had a lesson with my pro and he gave me a couple of drills but I have been paying more attention to having my right arm near my body.

Hi Adam I have conclusively found that the activation of the trail elbow to lead the trail hand at the transitional part of the golf swing have worked magic in my swing. Never again will I start my downswing with my hands and wrist. And never again will I deliberately drive my right elbow into my lead side. Thank you for showing us how the pros uses their magic trail elbow in a similar fashion as a quarterback might throw a ball starting with his trail elbow as well. Simply trust the rest of the body to naturally respond to the miracle of the trail elbow.

Reason for my comment today is that although I appreciate all the video of the pro swings you use as comparisons, what I’d really love is if you allowed them to actually hit the ball rather than ending the clip. I realise you’re trying to show a specific point or position or action, but being able to see that very point incorporated into an entire swing and shot would be very beneficial. Thanks.

Keeping the right elbow in the correct position has a lot to do with how you set it when you grip the club. Look at page 26 in Five Lessons The Modern Fundamentals of Golf. I believe no one takes a close enough look at this page. Note this: 1. Right elbow points to the ground . 2. Forearm is turned so that the palm of the hand is facing up. 3. The wrist is cocked and the club is placed in the fingers. When you do this the right arm and forearm will work correctly and you will come into the ball on the downswing like the third picture on page 106, the correct position to release the right forearm into the ball.
