Thanks Tommy. Glad you enjoyed it! one will go up every week from now.

At 09:00 into this video Andy states “the club face angle determines the starting direction of the ball” or something like that. I thought (according to school physics for motions of bodies) that the line of the swing at impact determines the starting direction of the ball and that the club face angle, relative to this line, determines the spin on the ball and thus the curve of the ball flight. This is the fundamental of the face, square to target at impact, producing a fade for an out to in swing line, and a draw for an in to out swing line. So is Andy’s new version of physics correct?
Hi Ian. Thanks for the comment. Yes that is old school what golfers use to think happened including ourselves at some stage. Take a look at the ball flight laws. The face angle is responsible for up t…
Hi Ian. Thanks for the comment. Yes that is old school what golfers use to think happened including ourselves at some stage. Take a look at the ball flight laws. The face angle is responsible for up to 80% of starting direction. There is a common term in the golf world now. “The face sends it and the path bends it”. Hope that helps.
Much obliged for this clarification. I took your phrase “ball flight laws” and found this article from 2010 by Jeff Mann: http://perfectgolfswingreview.net/ballflight.htm

This article read in conjunction with your fairway video explains a lot about my inconsistencies. The Mann article is quite long and needs a lot of concentration. With this detail applied to your video I now have a program of action that matches my real problems and not perceived problems derived from the incorrectly applied old ball flight concepts.
I think a lot of your customers may have to practice on mats and so they will have some difficulty using tips and tools from your videos. More mat videos please?
Hi Ian. Glad you found it. We will take your message on board and think more about Matt videos. Thanks.

Here’s a navigation tip for Me and My Golf users. When you login to the dashboard the latest video is shown with a play button. If you press the play button and watch the video you cannot respond to suggestions from Andy or Piers to “leave a comment below”. If you think you might want to comment you need to start the video from the right hand column of “latest videos”. Click on the video from this column and you’ll have the comment option below the video. I know this is not relevant to the fairways video, but I cannot find the general comment screen so I’ll let you guys work out how to help your users better.

Hi guys, awesome stuff to help me with my over the top caused by lack of disassociation of my upper and lower body which im working on. What length away from the ball should the alignment stick be at 25 degrees?
Hi Chris. Fairly close the the golf ball. We would say half a grip length away.
Great instruction – I’m looking forward to the rest of the series. I’m wondering if my weight distribution – left foot vs right foot – influences whether and how I hit the ball on the heal, center or …
Great instruction – I’m looking forward to the rest of the series. I’m wondering if my weight distribution – left foot vs right foot – influences whether and how I hit the ball on the heal, center or toe. And, is their a video you’ve done that focuses on and analyses weight distribution impact overall? I’m looking for a way to understand and apply weight distribution on the tee box, fairway and green.
Hi guys,
I was wondering why the weights in Piers’s driver were set up the way they are? I.e. What effect it has on ball fright with both weights set to high spin. Love your videos, the “strike you…
Hi guys,
I was wondering why the weights in Piers’s driver were set up the way they are? I.e. What effect it has on ball fright with both weights set to high spin. Love your videos, the “strike your irons pure” has me swinging more confident. Thanks!
Hi William. With the weights set to high spin it does exactly that. Piers spins the ball low with his driver so having a slightly higher spin rate helps to control his ball flight a little better for …
Thank you Andy! I swing fast, 120+ but have low spin. I believe I will give that a go as I have seen a few people with that setup.
Great video guys! Really enjoyed all of it and I have watched it several times. During the “over the top” drill, you have the alignment stick set up on the target line with it about 25 degrees off the…
Great video guys! Really enjoyed all of it and I have watched it several times. During the “over the top” drill, you have the alignment stick set up on the target line with it about 25 degrees off the ground. My normal practice facility is a grass mat only facility. Do you have any recommendations for setting the sticks up properly on this type of foundation?
Hi Anthony. One option would be to use a basket to put the alignment stick through. this can work also but make sure it is safe when you set it up.
Nice video guys. I noticed that Andy is holding the driver with his left hand very close to the top of the club (the pinky finger is mere millimeters from the top of the club [easy to see at 3.29 in …
Nice video guys. I noticed that Andy is holding the driver with his left hand very close to the top of the club (the pinky finger is mere millimeters from the top of the club [easy to see at 3.29 in the video]). I have a counter-balanced woods [Yonex Ezone XP driver, 3-wood, 3-hybrid] and find that my pinky is 2 inches from the top of the shaft. I’m wondering if my clubs are too long, or I’m holding it too far down the shaft, and what bad things are due to me having 2-inches showing at the top of the shaft?
Hi Andy.
This is just where it feels comfortable for me. If you are slightly lower down the grip that is fine, it will more than likely be a comfort thing too and it shouldn’t make any difference at …

I love this series. I tend to push the ball right because I am not completing the turn. Do you have you have any drills for completing the swing and follow through. I am a new subscriber and will search your library.
Hi Carol. Thanks for signing up! We hope we can help. Take a look in our “back swing” vault. There are videos in there that will help.

loving the new series guys đź‘Ť I can get a little wild with the driver at times and when I videoed my swing I noticed I was cupping my wrist and the top of my swing and would come down ever so slightly over plane, been working on turning my knuckles down and it works so well, find that it also slows my transition down slightly and helps me get on plane, thanks guys
