This one goes out to my brother-in-law, and Jonathan Yarwood’s example of a chilli dip is pretty much exactly how he chips. And the best part about this lesson, it only takes 45 seconds.

Hitting the shot that backspins, that’s what all of the amateurs want, and the guys at MeAndMyGolf show how to do it.

I found this on my suggested videos.  It’s given by Justin Thompson who affiliated with http://swing-simply.com. He discusses the “Position” that all of the pros get into at and through impact, how they get there, and why it helps them hit it so straight and far.

This very much reminds me of Hogan’s Five Lessons, but is told in a different and maybe more simple way.

Something to work on while social distancing.

The Golf Channel School of Golf‘s Martin Hall and Blair O’Neal teach a one-arm downswing drill beneficial for golfers of all ages.

I was going through my e-mails today and found this one from Golf Channel.

Golf Channel Academy lead coach Kenny Nairn explains how to grip down on your wedges to improve distance control.

I only carry a standard pitching wedge (48 degrees) and a 56 degree sandwedge, so I have to do this all of the time.

Martin Hall gives a great tip of how to ensure you’re turning through the ball, and not throwing the club towards the ball.

As you can see from the above image, just grip partway down the shaft you should be able to swing without the shaft touching your body until well into the follow through.

If you can do this, you’ll be hitting it longer and straighter.

You can watch the whole video HERE.

Martin Hall and Blair O’Neal of Golf Channel’s School of Golf go over and demonstrate three of Byron Nelson’s keys to a good golf swing.

The keys are :

1. One piece takeaway
2. Left knee movement to start the downswing
3. Swing down the line

This one from the School of Golf showed up in my inbox today.  In it Martin Hall and Blair O’Neal share a drill to help turn your lead shoulder through the swing to help hit better long irons and hybrids.
