Why You Need This: Today, you'll discover "The Right Way To Have A Consistent Golf Swing"
If you want to be a really good golfer, you need consistency.
As complicated as the golf swing can be, there's one particular motion that guarantees you'll play consistent golf if you have it in your swing.
In today's lesson...
Discover what this motion is...
...and the step-by-step process to make sure it's in your swing!
Pay particularly close attention at the [3:50] mark of the video...
...because this is the piece that almost nobody understands and is typically what creates that "light bulb moment" for your golf game!
Your game will never be the same after this.

Video Transcription:
All right. I got something awesome to share with you. Lemme show you this. Now, to be consistent, you have to do this motion correctly. I'm gonna show you real slow here and then I'm gonna break this down later in this video. If you can do that motion I just showed you correctly, you're gonna be incredibly consistent.
Now, before I get into the details, lemme show you some of the results I can get. So I can do this motion with just my left arm only, and I'm gonna try to draw every single one of these shots. So one arm, I'm gonna hit the ball fairly clean and get the ball to turn. From right to left. There we go. Nice little draw.
Just one arm doesn't have to be the longest swing. I'm just showing that you can be very consistent. It's not my athletic ability. I'm changing arms. I'm changing hands. It's the technique. And these techniques are gonna be virtually identical with all these swings I switched to the right arm. Now let's try to do that same little draw.
There we go. Nice little draw again. Almost identical shot. And then if I add two arms on it, I can go ahead and obviously hit it much farther, but get that consistent draw every single time. There we go. Start a little bit to the right and drew back, Hey, I'm not gonna do a whole heck of a lot better than that.
So what is the technique that allows someone to do that, and why is it that if I don't do this technique right, it's basically gonna be impossible to play good golf? Well, there's a few pieces to it. The number one piece. What I call the lag or the lag set. So when I make my back swing here, you'll notice I didn't pick this club up right away.
I took it back a little bit wider, and it wasn't until my down swinging look at the angle between my right wrist and the club and the downswing. As I shifted my weight to the left, then this angle starts to sharpen up a little bit. So I have to increase this angle of lag and have that angle of lag laid in my downswing.
That's exactly how you do it. So you go back wide as you shift to the. Then you set your wrist. Now I can have Ford Shaline, I can compress the ball, I can come from the inside, all those great things. And that's actually piece number two. As you're doing that, if I imagine that there is a target line, so let's imagine that I'm setting up this golf ball down my target line.
Let's say I have a, a club on the ground, actually I'll use a different club here, and I have a club on my, on the ground parallel to my target line. I'm not worried about getting this perfect. Right. It's more the philosophy than getting this set up exactly right. For here, let's say that's pointed straight toward my target or two feet inside my target, however you want to, however specific you wanna get with it.
Whenever I do that little lag set, my club has to be inside of this to make this work. If I do that little lag set and I'm here and my club is outside of it, I'll never be able to play great. I have to get that inside of this angle. That way as I turn through, see, go ahead and test this out for me. Grab it with just your left arm only.
Get the club inside of this club on the ground when it's parallel and rotate through and notice how it's almost like the momentum of the club just swings out toward the golf ball. The momentum of the club face just turns on over. That happens as we're doing that. And then finally, so I, I'm gonna go ahead.
Wide takeaway. As I shift my weight to the left, I get a little lag set. I get the club to the inside and the final piece is here. I keep it to the inside and I rotate my body through the shot. So here I'm gonna have that club to the inside. It's my body rotating that slings this club forward. You see, if I took this shaft angle like this and I just kept my arm locked in here, if I kept my hips here and I swung my arm, it'd be going this direction way inside.
But when I rotate my hips open, now that's gonna be square with the target. See, that's the piece that most people never get, right? They think about hitting toward the target. Then as soon as the body opens up, we're swinging across it. We're getting steep. We're doing all these different things we don't want to do.
I just have to do that little lag set with it inside, and then open my body and let that club fling out to the right. So again, here, I'm gonna go ahead and go through the same. Little half backswing, I'm gonna lag set from the inside and let my body open. I'm not gonna hit it a whole heck of a lot better than that.
So that's the way that you can be consistent, you know? But there's still a second piece to this. So that was piece number one. Getting this club, basically that lag that from the inside that you see with all the pros. Piece number two is what to do with the wrist, and that's what I'm gonna teach you in the move section, the top speed golf.
You see good golfers. Basically, if you just boil it down, there's two types of golfers. There's golfers that come down a little bit steep and maybe slightly over the top or steep, and then kind of back out of it, standing up outta their posture. A variety of players that come down slightly steep. Then there's golfers that come down shallow from the inside and make golf look like it's just dag on easy, right?
But you can really classify it in those two people. People that struggle, that are steep people that think golf is easy, that are shallowing from the inside. I want you to be the second one. I want you to shallow that club out and I want you to learn the right way to use the wrist so that it makes it to where you can swing one arm, you can swing with two arms and it just feels easy to hit a golf ball.
I'm gonna show you that in the move section of the top speed golf system. So if you're a member, go ahead and click on the instruction tab, go to the the top speed golf system, go to the move section, and I'm gonna build on what we talked about here today. See what I didn't have time to get into here. Was how to use those wrists and square these up the right way so that when you get that little lag set from the inside, everything is perfectly lined up.
And ball after ball after ball is gonna be really consistent. So head on over there right now. I can't wait to see you in the first video. Let's go and get started.
