My Brain EXPLODED After Learning this Simple Hip Move to Fix Early Extension

So many name throwing in one coaching session .. does he even have a system or he just takes bits and pieces from players here and there and put them together? .. 😂😂😂

Haha... i think holding the finish is Jerome's kryptonite..

Tuesdays and Thursdays at navy course no Matt's

Can you break 80 yet?

Best teacher best show online. so much incredible content.

didn't hear early extension discussed at all

My brain just exploded reading another one of these titles

Exact Sam thumbnail as a previous video….

I can personally attest to the no mats portion. I bent my 8 iron getting too steep in the downswing. I didn't realize it until I went to hit it during a round. When I looked down at address it looked weird. Definitely hit the grass range. I can't speak to LA. I haven't lived there in almost 30 years. Great lesson. I grew up learning to play with persimmon woods and blade irons from the 30's. I didn't have a driver, so I exclusively hit a 3 wood. To this day my 3 wood is my favorite club to hit. So many different shots you can play with it.

80 going into 16 and ended with an 88? 8 strokes in 3 holes is amazing. One of us is confused.

Interesting lesson learned a lot. I’ve intuitively noticed when I flatten my turn with long clubs I hit them much better but when I get to wedges a steeper turn helps a lot

You said not a fan of hitting from the mats. What is the option for home simulators and practice if not from mats? Or another kind of safer mat?

Yooo when are you uploading game content

That’s funny, our local range is all mats. I very rarely hit my irons on them. I use my wedges and woods. I’ll bring 3 irons and rotate which 3 every time. But typically I’ll hit 3-5 balls with each and that’s it. Never thought about the fact the mat could be changing loft and lie though. Was more because I need the least practice with them, but it’s good to know

So does one use the downward and left upper body movement on all full shots ? Full irons? Driver?
Thank you!

Stop trying to squat and hit down on the downswing. You will naturally squat on the downswing but before impact you actually pull back and up which you don't.
You need to watch Christoph Bausek's first person POV and videos. You will get way more from him. Dana is milking the shit out of you and filling his pockets.

Did we figure out best no matter ranges in LA yet?

Was it Butch who said that 90% of golfers shouldn't play a 3wood, including pros.

WAIT! i have a lead arm issue too! it's painful when i outstretch it and cracks sometimes when i bend it. is that what you have jerome??

epic.....great video

Tl:dw..

Dude, your head posture is just weird. Pls tweak again.

What software is he using?

"We have special golf balls here that don't spin" lol. The Spa.

Do you really want to get better at golf or are you just gaining potential clients/customers for your tech app? I’ve dropped close to 12 strokes in the last 3 months, by simply playing more golf and a few lessons with a local coach.

Just hit the damn ball.

I personally want a safe space to learn/make mistakes related to golf. Not sure you provide that given your into mocking Charles Barkley. You need a redo.

It was pretty funny to hear you say you're hitting the ball too far, and over the green. 99% of golfers want to hit it further, plus 90% of golfers underclub and hit it too short. You'll learn your club distances by playing. I liked your video of playing a round. Play to learn. There's a whole world of golf you haven't discovered yet: weather, wind, bad lies, downhill, trees, other players, tough holes, pressure, etc. Range time can only teach you swing fundamentals. Golf is a complete mastery of all the elements.

Great stuff guys! Your swing has come a LONG way man and all of your hard work and dedication is paying off. I’ve learned so much as well watching all of these videos. Now, have a I implemented all of this into my swing? No! 😂 It has taught me more about what I need to picture or feel in my swing. I’m 51 and my best round is 74…That was about 1 years ago. Yesterday, I had an absolute blow out round- I threw 4 clubs beyond return. 😂 Two in the woods about 30yds deep and two in the water. Today was an expensive day at the PGA STORE. Golf will humble you real quick and you’ve gotta learn how to manage the game to succeed. Thanks for all you do and thanks to your coaches as well. Continued success and hopefully one day you’ll shoot a 72 or better. 🙏 🇺🇸 ⛳️

I wish I could get taught by a pro coach I’ve watched soooo many hours of videos and have practiced so much, but I’m still not very good at contact. I keep practicing but I wish I had a guide like this to show me how I can have a tour pro swing and play like them and be taught by them.

Awesome

Big piece of advice here from an ex-college player that had a homemade swing with no coaching. If you are going down the fundamental route like my teammate who is trying to qualify for high level amateur stuff now instead of playing 45+ holes a day hoping that gets you good enough like I did when I was younger, you are going to need a few items.

Get a set of 5-7 used clubs as range clubs and place trainer grips on them. Get something to place between your arms at address to keep your structure (Tour striker ball esque item). And lastly get a golf rope and do a bunch of step drills with it (Dr Kwon explains it well) to help your swing rhythm and weight transfer. You already film your swing so I won't get into that, but please stay away from diagnosing every single swing look at one every 10-20 otherwise overthinking will happen.

Then if you have to hit balls at the range, find a short tee and try to pick them even with irons and wedges this will help with low point control. Always pose after a swing even if it's bad contact to feel your weight distribution. And lastly go to every range session with a plan of specific clubs w/ trainer grips, yardages, and drill you are trying to get better at.

If you do this every day or two you should drastically get better, even more so than you are now which is saying something considering the progress you've made.

Dana is like a F1 driver of swing knowledge. Very interesting listening to him drive his incredibly powerful car of knowledge around a Gen Z street track with all kinds of obstacles and distractions. He really reigns it in and keeps it simple when he has to. Excellent coach, great content. 👌

Jerome Rufin, I think a handful sessions with Athletic Motion Golf would do more than a whole year of lessons. No offense to Coaches... it's just their philosophy is more geared differently toward teaching the best swing for success.

Contact apprehension
That's the struggle bus in golf right there.

was having problems with early extension for my irons, after training with my driver
then stumbled on this video, helped tons
always love Dana's explanations

A list of 8 things to remember in this one session. I think your brain is destroyed after all your brain explosions. No wonder you’re stuck at 16.5 handicap.

I can see why you have a lot of trouble.
You're thinking about contact, but the coach is addressing consistency. Contact can be learned later via ball positioning, grip style, and body tilt. You're simply thinking, oh that didn't work so I need to make adjustments.
Stop thinking about micro adjustments to get contact. You need to think differently.

💀 waiting for your next video...

SO thats what I lost in past year, the hip hinge. I always would see pros head dip and mine would dip also but never realized why. Its the hip hinge making them drop in height. I became too static because how many times you hear: "Keep the head still!" No no no the head is still once the that transition is done and then the body torques and rotates while the head is still looking at the ball until impact. I guess I got afraid of chunking it if I dip too deep but the chunk wont happen because the hands go more in front thus reducing the distance between the hands and the ground. Basically I became a flipper and lost yardage, got too much height and started thinning it. Golf... You might be doing something great and not knowing it but eventually you might lose it.

Adidas’s pants and Nike shoes 🙄

Dude… Dude! This makes so much sense! DUDE! This is an epiphany!

Preset the wrists.

88

Bro you should post your on course performance- it’s cool to see lessons but we gotta see how it translates to the course. What’s your handicap so far? Which tees?

LOL you will NEVER EVER learn to play golf with 100,000 things running thru your brain !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TURN YOUR BRAIN OFF AND HIT THE CLUB .....LIKE A 5 YR OLD
