  • I stop video clicking about thousand time to get all coach set-up positions, Amazing details and step by step to nail it, I called "Golf GOD set-up" this picture and imagination will play before every of my iron shot, Thank you so much you just mastered me to next levels

    This is video is the best I have seen in how to improve ball striking.......and is exactly what I need. As soon as the rain stops today, I will create the "narrow track station" and implement the drills you have explained. I played golf yesterday, shot an 83, but only hit 4 greens in regulation. Regardless of club, I was consistently 2 feet to 2 yards short of the greens. It was so frustrating! I look forward to working on your drills and improve my strike!

    Thank you so much Cameron!!! Thank you!!

    Amazing Lesson! These are some of the best drills to help so many people understand how to hit irons well at the fundamental level. I do all of these and even have the same foot spray haha! I used tape instead of towels but I will definitely try the divot towel. A great follow up video would be at what point does delofting stop making sense? Like you can’t deloft a 3iron very much right? Is 12 degrees about the sweet spot for wedges and then progressively less as you go up the bag? ? Only an expert like you could really say as you work with pros! Thanks!!
  • Last drill gives me the shanks 😂 I'll try the first to see if it improves my high dynamic loft. Thank you 😊
  • @DosLobos
    Wow that first drill was amazing for getting my pressure shift forward. Cheers
  • @iswhatits
    love the drills! going to try these today

    Incredible channel. Glad to have come across your content. Instant subscriber. Concept of moving mass to the left has finally got me compressing the ball. Interestingly, swing speed is up about 4mph in addition to ball speed gains. However, I’m noticing my spin rate is probably about 1500-2000 less than desirable for that club. For instance, 9 iron (strong at 39 - Titleist T200) chs 85, bs 108, vla 21, aoa -5, spin 6250. I would assume loss of spin is somewhat expected with decrease in dynamic loft. Does this now become an equipment issue at a given swing speed? How can I produce 21 degrees vertical launch with 8000 rpm spin at 85mph chs? Even more negative AoA?

    Hi Cameron great video love the in-depth instruction.. I was wondering if you could tell me where you bought the bar stool in the background.. kindest regards John.
  • @wenbray6396
    Cameron, are you also turning the the club head down some for that lower dynamic loft.Another words using the motorcycle method with hands and wrists. If so can you do a video, if you haven’t how this is done properly to get that lower loft.
  • Thanks for this video. After I practiced these drills on my home mat for a few days, I went to the range and definitely saw an improvement in my ability to strike cleanly from various lies. However, I seemed to pop up my driver at first. I was able to adjust, but it made me curious. Is there a similar set of drills to help coordinate the release of the driver for optimal face contact, since we need to hit up, not down? Thanks for any help or suggestions.

    Careful. You can damage the movement in that submariner hitting shots with it on! Great video!
