Thank you soooooo much Stu to bring such clarity through the myst of all these awkward tips, which always seemed to be very "artificial" to me.

This is a truly great video. The explanations about the right arm length affecting the radius of the handle/swing vs. how the left arm affects the radius of the club head/swing is fascinating. Also - that drill of using the lift hand to illustrate & isolate the "feel" of the right arm/elbow during the downswing is brilliant. I'll be implementing that into my practice routine (I swing for a min of 30 mins a day, putt every day, and chip 2-3 times a week).

Happy Saturday Stu! Interesting topic, it’s as if you are making these videos just for me 😂. After watching your “sequencing your swing” video which is probably my favorite, I finally started understanding the feeling I needed to grasp as it relates to forearm rotation / “shallowing” aka letting the club head move with gravity behind me when starting the downswing. I noticed that my right elbow naturally started anchoring towards my torso when doing so, but if I consciously tried to do it I would overemphasize the movement and hit shots way left of right, as you have demonstrated. Your video timing is impeccable, thanks for pointing out the reality here. Danny Maude seems like he’s genuinely trying to help folks, though I would agree his recent Pete Cowen videos only confused me 😅

Daniel, anyone who’s tucked their arms has felt a reduction in power, leverage and freedom. Utter rubbish and it should be a “walk away moment” the minute someone suggests this. I’m glad you’ve dropped it my friend. Bring on the good times! Best wishes Stu 😊

This critique video references a recent Maude/Cowan that Mr. Cartwright admits he didn't entirely view and then misrepresents. I assume this is unintentional. Here's the deal. For situations when low ball flight and directional accuracy are most important, Cowan teaches a delofted impact method that is used as needed by accomplished golfers. It involves a delayed combination of tucked elbow and counter-rotated forearm through impact that is very effective but is very timing sensitive and takes substantial practice to coordinate. These points are covered as the M/C video proceeds, including DM's concerns that it will be too tricky for his typical subscriber. Golfers who grew up with UK/Ireland conditions commonly use this method by default, higher shots being the exception. With more roll-out and less predictable distance in the fairway, they also get very good at a lofted short game out to 100. Late in the video, Cowan makes the point that this way of turning of the face over and down can be partially incorporated into an existing swing by us mortals. Try it. It's subtle, all you have to do it even think about it, and it's enough. Cowan is not for everybody, but no instructor is. Maude has given him a fair airing in this and the chipping video with him.

HI Stu - I have travelled the elbow-tucking path recently and, as I stated yesterday in another video comment... I subscribe to letting the kinetic chain do what it knows. Overly tucking the elbow is not what the kinetic chain does but it (my right elbow) HAS to go somewhere... and near the hip is where it travels. I believe forcing body positions is poison, we suck at it and it doesn't work. Great video Stu! Best, Mark.

So I’ve been working on keeping head behind the ball at impact and have some shaft lean to “collecting the ball” in the release. For doing so I feel that I have to tuck my right elbow in and delay the strike a bit, and the results where great when I timed it. Maybe it just comes down to feel more than reality. We can agree on that every pro have the same impact position and the body needs to do stuff to get there. I can’t see how a tucked elbow ain’t one of the things that needs to happen.

Riveting lesson about tucking in right elbow! Watched the video you referenced of two well respected coaches, quite a difference of opinion! So started doing the drill you post here to get the right feel, have my arm move across my body as I turn back, then have forearm rotation to a degree. It definitely places the right elbow in a pretty decent spot. From there will work on pelvis and hip rotation/body turn through impact that you mention to insure chest and lower half move around the golf ball as right arm is being pulled in front of chest on the forward swing. This will be a key for my swing as I have battled with trying to keep right elbow into my side to avoid flying left elbow. At times it works great, but probably happens by chance.

Thanks Dave!

Thanks, very interesting. What you show here fits precisely with what I have been learning about the right arm, forearm and elbow from other instructions, but you show what happens when you do it incorrectly. I have found as I try to improve that I do need to get my right forearm in the more vertical position you show, with the elbow a bit closer to the target than the wrist. Then on the downswing have the right elbow come in front of the right thigh. But you are quite right, one can overdo it and get into an excessively tucked position. I have done that to a degree and of course find that while I may make good contact, the ball will go to the right. On a par three, that means in the bunker or nasty rough off to the side. Bingo, par gone, bogey or double coming up. But if I work on keeping the right elbow in front of my chest as I turn back, not letting it get behind me, it will, exactly as you show, come down in front of my thigh with the right wrist in extension (bent back) but the face will be in correct alignment. It's complex, as you say. So many things to do right. It is easier on the range or in a practice bay to correct an erroneous arm structure with the next swing. Out on the course, it is easy to be distracted, to feel tension, be tired, forget, and of course you only get one swing. I have seen other good instructors who show that pros turn the arms back less than it appears. Once they get the correct arm structure, which you show, they only move the arms back a few inches. They do move the left bicep across the left pec, but the majority of the move back comes from turning the chest or torso, which, exactly as you say at minute 9, can only be done if you turn the pelvis. When you turn this way, you find that the right elbow stays in front of the chest and ends up roughly in line with the side of your shirt, not behind you. Then when you make the downswing the elbow does come down ahead of the wrist, as you and they show, but slightly out in front of you, not tucked in to the side and almost behind you. I do work to have my left wrist a bit bowed, in flexion, but it feels natural. If my left wrist is cupped it leaves the face open. Again, thanks.

Great insights John! Best wishes Stu

My coach stressed this a bit a few lessons ago...I have a gap between my right arm/elbow and my right flank from shaft parallell in the downswing to just before impact. I have been unable to get that arm "tucked" much to his chagrin. I'm hitting the ball with good contact and hiting it relatively straight (I have a pull at times, and sometimes I push it out to the right). I'm more interested in results. My Index has dropped 8 points in the last year, so I don't stress about tucking my elbow. My bigger problem is that my right shoulder doesn't go down and then under (my shoulder tilt is left or near zero at shaft parallell in the downswing). When I promote shoulder tilt to the right, I hit it fat. Very frustrating game this golf. Thanks for validating what I've suspected about my right elbow.

Tucking the right arm under the left is in baseball, called ‘bat drag’. It’s something that juniors do and robs speed. And in golf you also have to manage the clubface and with that move, an excessive path. Through impact top golfers have their right arm in line with their shirt seam not jammed in front. And in 3D some of the greatest ball strikers today in fact go internal with the right arm on the downswing. In 2D video it looks external.

I quickly realized that that move was not for me, and went back to my normal swing, which, by the way, naturally tucks my right elbow without me having to manufacture it. I believe that many of the “old school” teachers are just wrong and won’t change. This is why I mainly ignore them, because they have flawed ideas of how the swing should works. Keep educating us.

He promotes this idea of spinning the right arm down after pointing out that this only works if you have a proper grip and „load the arm correctly“ which in your terms would be turning properly in the backswing I believe. He then assumes that if you spin the arm down the body will automatically do the right thing as a reaction to it. Plus his target group is Danny, a person who knows the basics and asked for an idea how to put more pressure on the ball.

Stu, love you and your vids - always bring a wry smile. However, the DM/PC video at no stage suggests ‘tucking the right elbow in’ or ‘hitting from the inside’. In fact at the start of the video PC goes as far as to say ‘the right arm needs to be loaded correctly in the backswing [for it to work]’ as you do here. I don’t agree with any YT downswing videos - generally- because you’ve got 2/10ths of a second to hit the ball from the top and if anyone thinks they can manipulate a golf shot in that time, good luck. As the great Peter Thompson (coach) says ‘95% of the golf swing is complete at the top of the backswing’. So I agree that 95% of downswing ‘faults’ are symptoms of earlier ‘idiosyncrasies’ in the back swing and the entire concept of making a ‘move’ on the downswing is flawed. But to insinuate that DM/PC demonstrated the approach you have accused them of here is plain wrong. PC even says ‘get the elbow out in front and track the body with the butt to the left’ which is an out to in feel and exactly what you profess. So, agree with get the backswing right and the rest will take care of itself, don’t agree with the assertion that PC/DM said what you’re asserting they did. Others have, but not them. PC even demos a drill which is pretty much the same as the one at the end of this video by holding on to the right elbow with his left hand. 😂 I think you should watch the DM video in full again.

Third, I've been trying this, and in combination with the split handed drill, it has given me a first time sense of what a "pivot" and compression in the golf swing actually feels like.

I know PC and know exactly where the video was going. I am so happy DM and PC’s advice has helped you, truly I am, and long may that continue. When I’ve coached over 40,000 hours and coached tour players and won on tour, I think my views and expertise is evidence based, which is why I have conviction in what I deliver. Thank you for being part of my golfing community, really love having you here. Best wishes Stu 😊

Stu, Absolutely agree that the right arm should not be messed with in the downswing, and the DM video with PC is a portion of my life I’ll never get back! However ‘tucking in’ is not what is suggested in DM’s video, in fact the suggestions made don’t differ substantially from your philosophy. That’s my point. I would be interested in your interpretation of ‘shallowing’ now that 3D motion capture has confirmed that the top of the backswing is as ‘shallow’ as Tour players get.​@@GoodGolfCoaching

@@markcampbell1708 if you watch my video back, I don’t say once DM or PC suggest you should tuck your right arm in, I reference the right wrist, and reference they isolate the right arm in the down swing. I really appreciate your thoughts though Mark! Have a great Sunday Sir. 😊

I Prefer Pete Cowen, Tom Saguto, Steve Johnston. I do think most have a good swing, but some explain in better terms.

Hmmm? Imo this is why golf is so difficult for us weekend golfers. I've been playing golf for 18 years with a 11 hdcp. Many golf instructors have their own "golf secret" to improve your swing. This video just discredit (or over exaggerated) a golf swing taught by a very well known golf instructor. Top players have adopted this swing technique with positive results. For me, the "tucked right elbow" technique was a gamechanger in my golf swing. I guess find your swing that works for you. Like Arnold Palmer said ... "Swing your swing."

I absolutely agree, golf can be confusing. I have no doubt people have made the “tucked right elbow” technique as you call it, has worked for man, at what cost. Distance, strike, consistency… I simply share my thoughts 😊. Discredit, I’m not sure about that, but that’s the beauty of media, if you put yourself up for viewing, we must take the highs and lows of the ride 😊. Big thanks for sharing your thoughts, really appreciated! Best wishes Stu 😊

Sadly there is a lot of bad stuff out there Emil - we will get you through it together 😊

When I get a contractor to quote on some job around my house and they spend all their time knocking the competition they are toast. Spend more time showing us what you want us to do and why and we can be the judge. Drop the articulated lorry example. REALLY out of place! The cab is not trying to fling the trailer to get max speed at the back of the trailer. Spend more time showing what to do and less what not to do. Long videos might help you but not us.

Sir, you spend more time telling us what not to do rather what to do. Please tell us what is the right swing.

I watched 5 seconds of your video and you are obviously incorrect and know far less than I do about the golf swing. Nevertheless I have subscribed and will continue my endeavours to reduce my handicap to 35. Just kidding, loved it, and I'm actually off 3.

How is the thumbnail clickbait?. It says "stop tucking this" and the entire video is about not tucking the right elbow. Dang dude, if it's not for you, I get it, but it's definitely not cluckbait.

You just copy Pete Cowen's idea and modify it and call it your idea. Pretty smart..😂😂😂

Have you watched the video Seb?

Let's see. What Cowen/Maude is teaching is based on what Ben Hogan was teaching. So you say either that Ben Hogan was wrong or Cowen has misunderstood what Ben Hogan taught. That Ben Hogen was wrong is out of the Q. Would a pro like Cowen misunderstand Hogen? Not likely. Sorry to say but logic tells us that you have missed the point. That points to suggest that you are stirring up a storm in a sippy cup to get attention. Good try. try again mite

Yeah its difficult because I disagree with Cowen on his thoughts on the release. Hes calling it flipping/manipulating the club head at inpact. And from the bunker he sais nothing about having the weight on your lead foot. My real inspiriation is from Padraig Harrington. That he only has 100k followers is beyond me. He takes the game from 0-100 in so few lessons it's scary. Thanks for the answer. Ideas are good dogmas is so wrong for the game of golf. And you bring ideas to the game. Thank you for that Sir.@@GoodGolfCoaching

Wait... So Cowen is one of the world's top coaches, with tour winners under his belt, but his teaching is Rubbish? Maybe it's just that his teaching isn't for everyone. As someone who takes in a lot of golf content, I'd say the issue is we aren't acknowledging that simple fact. That being that every instructor is not for everyone. And that's ok.

You know what I've been playing for years. A lot of content you see on you tube is way out of reach of the weekend golfer. We would be trying for years to adapt ourselves to some of these moves. We need simple and something that works. I think in Stuart we've found it. You can see the evidence in front of your very eyes. Either listen and adapt. Or move on

I think the problem/opportunity in golf is that everyone fights different battles in a game that is already really difficult. There's also a lot of different ways to explain it which responds to different ppl.

Cant you lessons guys get together and come up with the ideal swing vs tuck in one says don’t tuck in another says. If your not certified or PGA tour get off the channel.

You obviously didn’t watch the whole video that Cowen and Maude made. He wasn’t saying tuck the elbow in , he was simply showing how to twist right forearm down while keeping wrist bent back to compress and lower ball flight. Do better
