If you're wondering how to hit your irons pure, I have a simple drill for you. Literally, within 10 minutes of doing this drill you'll be striking your irons more solidly and consistently than ever.
Please visit the link below and I will send you free samples from my Body Swing book and video series: bodyswing.com/freesamples/
So many people struggle when hitting irons which is costing them a ton of shots. This drill is not about hitting down on the ball. It is not about forward shaft lean through impact. It's not about changing your grip or anything else. You may have tired those things in the past and they don't work because they have you hitting the ball with your arms.
If you want to hit your irons pure you need to stop doing all of those things. This best drill for irons and it's totally different to anything you have ever tried in the past.
The next time you're at the range give this a try. I need you to tee up your ball. Take out a mid iron and hit a whole bucket of balls doing this drill. Then adjust as I explain in the tip as you get better at it.
Correction: 6:48
Here I said squeeze against the ground. Should be squeeze against the clubface.

• HOW TO HIT YOUR IRONS ...
One of the best drills I've experienced. I purchased your Body Swing series a couple months back and have seen major improvement. Forgetting the strong grip and transitioning to a neutral grip was probably the hardest habit to break at 58 years old, however, I'm seeing more consistency with my shots. Still working on the loose wrist and hitting my irons pure. Thanks for all your help!
Thanks for the support. Glad you are starting to get it. Glad you are doing the neutral grip now. This is a game changer for sure but it does take work. Stay focused and try to perfect each lesson. Just do this daily at home. This is one of the biggest issues people have. They don't do swings daily.
@@paulwilsongolf very nice drill! Thank you
Paul I have a question. Does this work on driver and three woods also?
Some people have tried it and were successful. Give it a try too.
So do this drill choked down on the club and this will translate to full swing normal grip on the course ? Is it just a feel drill to get you in sync with your irons ?
I've never responded to anything on KZhead. I'm 56 years old and have hit a ton of balls in my life and tried most every tip. This tip has helped me more than anything I've ever tried. It has made golf fun again. Thank you!
That's great. Sometimes it just takes that one thing. Seems you found it.
That’s awesome!
I agree...unfortunately I saw this video at the end of last season so I was only able to do this a couple times, but what unbelievable results!!! I can't wait to do this now that the new golf season is just beginning again up here in NY!
I'm 42 just getting in to golf well bout a year now Paul Wilson you have helped out tremendously on my irons and grip and swing techniques thank you!👍👍💯
I watched this and went golfing on vacation the next day. I went from double bogey golf to putting for birdie on 4-5 holes per 9 holes. Amazing! Thank you!!
Paul - last month I shot a 63 in my weekly 9-hole league. I could not hit my irons AT ALL. I was embarrassed and ready to quit. I watched this video, and went to the driving range. I tried your choke up, hinge technique and hit EVERY SINGLE ball in the bucket solid and straight! Today I shot a 41 in my league, including inches fro a hole in one. This is ALL from watching your videos! Thank you so much for completely changing my game! For anyone reading this - watch Paul's videos, the ONLY training that works! Thank you so much Paul!
Wow, that's great. So glad you tried it and saw results. This loosens up the wrists which is a huge key. Stay focused and you can always go back to this drill if you are just not quite hitting it great one day. Thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it.

I seriously think you’re one of the very few pros in the world who actually understand and are able to teach how to hit a golf ball. So many pros are obsessed with body angles and positions, they forget all about what the club head is supposed to do at impact. Thank you!!! Soft wrists and hands are absolute key. I think so many pros and good golfers have no idea why they’re able to hit a golf ball. But for those of us who aren’t naturals, your advice is the missing link of golf instruction!
Thanks for seeing how I go about teaching. Years ago I used to make it complicated. This got me nowhere. They day I made it simple I got my swing back after 10 years or trying everything. They can keep doing what they do and I will keep doing what I do. Seems like a lot of people like the simple approach.
Mr. Wilson, you taught me to play golf through your videos years ago. I'm back playing after a four year hiatus and been struggling to get my swing back. I gotta say, coming back to your videos after all this time has helped me immensely. The Body-Swing is the key. Thank you for all the great videos!
Glad you're back. Glad you are doing well. Just work on each piece and you will have it in no time. The Body Swing is the key for sure.
I can't wait to go practice this drill! THANK YOU!
You're so welcome!
5:35 - At the range I did one swing strictly hinge/rehinge with very little lower body action, just to see what would happen. The ball went about 83% of my normal distance with a little pull fade. Absolutely amazing. For those people who top it, fat it, don't make contact, or can't get it down the fairway, this one change would immediately lower their handicap by 10 strokes, maybe more!
Like I said, it will go almost as far if not farther. You did that with minimal body. If you use your body you will be just as far. Nice. Everyone need to try it for sure.
Agree with previous post, senior golfer, loosing distance, this one tip, has helped me the most, of any video, flushing it Thanks from Canada !
Thank you Sir. I was at the point of total frustration .
Glad it helped. Now you know you can do it. Get the wrists loosened up and you will be having fun again.
Great tip. I do this when warming up before a round. It gets my wrists working ready for a game. My handicap 7. Great vid. Cheers.
Good stuff. This is a constant reminder of the feeling.
Paul, I think you are one of the best KZhead coaches. A sincere thank you very much for improving my game, and giving me the tools to self diagnose and correct my swing. Best regards, Will 👍
Thanks so much. I appreciate the support. Keep at it.
I concur with you Will....this man is good
Not one of the best...purely the best... simple strait facts in his videos.
Man, you just don't know how lucky I am to have found your videos. You're a lifesaver. You make more sense to me and practical compared to God knows how many other videos I've watched to little or No help at all.
Great to hear! Simple is the key. You need to understand it so you will actually try it. Once you do and hit some good ones hopefully you will keep doing it. Stay focused and try to not work on too many things at once.
I watched Paul’s video last night and went to the driving range this morning. I was absolutely amazed at how effortless my swing was and how far and high the ball went. I had never heard the importance of loose wrists in golf before. Thank you so much, Paul! I’m working my way through the rest of your videos now.
Amazing! I love hearing it.
I went to the range today to check this out, and never hit a more pure shot...and you're right about almost achieving the same distance. I hit solid, straight shots, that went about 10yds short of normal. Thank you Paul, I will definitely be using this drill more often to improve ball striking, and tempo.
Glad you tried it. This tip has literally helped thousands of people. It gets the wrists unlocked. Keep doing this and as you get better slowly grip back up. We all get tight. If you have this in your back pocket then you can get back on track asap.
Thanks for this drill Paul. I have applied this tip to my practice routine and have lowered my handicap from 12 to 6 in the past 2 months. Consistently hitting my irons flush has always been an issue for me. No more! Keep up the good work.
That's great. Simple drill which does wonders for your swing. You are proof. Let's get you down to a 2 hdcp.
Amazing effort I,m hoping too get under a 100 within the month
For real?
You are the first person that I received the golf lesson by KZhead. Thank you for all those years teaching us with out any interruption for 15 years. I really appreciate it.
Glad to help. Tons of people out there need help. Thanks for the support.
It works! Hold it till the end of the grip, felt somewhat more secure and ease of those tensed muscles. What a major difference, not just the compact sound but also getting more control of the shots now. Great video. Keep it up. Thank you
Great to hear!
Thanks Paul. Watched this video after four horrific rounds in a row, irons being the main issue. Thought it couldn't possibly be this simple. It was! Good to be back!
Very good. All of this stuff is simple. Just go to see it. Keep watching my other tips for even more help.
Your video's rock. You have helped my game a great deal. Im sad i found your content this fall. Seeing that winter is right around the corner. But i wanted to thank you for your teaching style it works if you really listen and take it in small chunks and honestly work on them. Im excited about spring. Cheers my friend.
Thanks. Not sure why everyone thinks they have to hang up the clubs. Doing practice swings at home is the best way to work on your swing. No ball means no distraction of you trying to hit it. If there is no distraction you can make the changes over the winter then play great golf next season as opposed to not practicing then working on it next season when you should be playing great golf. I have literally taught this for years. It's just getting everyone to do it. Just take out a 7 iron and having sitting there. Do daily practice swings doing some of the stuff in my tips and it will be mastered by next season.
Finally, a sound explanation of what hitting down on the ball means. I've always had this tip in the back of my mind (with my arm swing) with the end result usually being a turf-size divot I could roll out on my own lawn. Now that I have been practicing this drill, coiling-recoiling with a body swing, I can feel the club 'getting into correct position' (aka hitting down) immediately before ball strike.
Glad it was helpful! You need to watch this one too: kzhead.info/sun/eKilp8qplox4qX0/bejne.html Great feeling when you make great contact.
Looking forward to giving this a try over the weekend 👍
That's why I posted it today. Thought others would be out there this weekend. Let us know how you did.
Paul Wilson Golf me too, but Phoenix this weekend will be at least 115 degrees, and 90 at daybreak
You explain things so nicely and simple. Great Video!
Thanks so much!
Brilliant! I'm heading to the range 😁
Good luck!
I love this lesson and I have tried this before and noticed exactly what you are saying . Lately I have been flipping the club and not getting the distance with my irons, so a local pro had me hitting down, exactly the opposite of what you are teaching, with the results not being what I want , and a sore wrist. After watching your lesson , I will be going back to the range and practice like you said with gripping down for an entire bucket with various irons !!!
Glad it was helpful! That hitting down never works.
Are you kidding me?! After 50 years of playing Golf on and off I found this gem of golf instruction and it cured my thin irons with this drill with 20 range balls. After I understood the importants of just doing nothing with the arms and wrists I hit the best 5 iron of my whole life! Super effortless, dead straight with a great contact. But it only works when you do one thing. And this thing is DO NOTHING! LET IT HAPPEN AND IT WILL BE PERFECT. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Glad you liked it. Thanks. This is the key. Too many people out there just whacking away as hard as they can. This tightens the wrists and can get you manipulating the face. Just need to let it go. This loosens the wrists so you get way more clubhead speed with no effort. This clubhead speed is for life because you don't have to be strong to be loose. Plus, if you aren't hitting you allow the forces to act on the mass almost eliminating any face twisting. Might want to watch this one too. It's an old one but still relevant: kzhead.info/sun/l9txnbGAbnWoZ4k/bejne.html
Haha, everyone is heading to the range tomorrow...including me :-) Can't wait to try.....thanks!
Have fun!
Thanks for sharing Paul.... just played best two rounds this weekend after watching this. Hit several shots I was literally laughing after applying this technique. Good stuff. like most of your nuggest are. Tip of the hat. And I have to say - I kinda like this new persona in method you are presenting - very refreshing. Keep em coming. And again - huge thanks.
Very good. I love hearing it. Who would have thought doing the opposite of what everyone tells you to do was going to work .... hmmm ... oh yeah ... I did. Just got to loosen everyone up.
I've played golf 3 times a week for 40 years and going to play tomorrow. looking forward to choking up as my baseball coach yelled at me from first base when I was 9.
Has anyone tried this out wit 3 wood or driver if so did it work have not tried it yet just curious
This is the best and most simplest training tip I gave ever seen. I suffer from a really tight grip but now I xan see the light. Keep the faith with this tip it really does work.
Very good. Simple but powerful drill.
Hi Paul! I love the video and how you step down to the students level and consider the students mindset and how the mindset is critical to continue to push forward through the progression of the learning experience. Thank you and success always! Dr D
Well, I have always thought about this. For well over the first 10 years of teaching I would analyze the students reaction to what I was saying. I was thinking what are they hearing as I say it. If it didn't register I would discard it. This is why I say things the way I say them. Everything has been tested with thousands of students. The main thing holding people back that no one even talks about is human nature. I talk about it here: kzhead.info/sun/mdmIetyulmRoe6M/bejne.html It affects everything you do in a golf swing. Need to go against it. Until then, you will never get it.
You are awesome Paul! Thanks!
My pleasure!
Wow!!! This is the first video that has actually worked for m. And with almost no effort. I'm a 12 handicap and I can see cutting it in half with this drill. Iron's are the worst part of my game. I just played a par 3 and had 5 pars and 1 birdie. I even hit the pin once. I've never been able to hit my irons straight and consistent but this seems to have done the trick. Thank you very much!
Very good. Sometimes it just takes that one thing to get your game to a whole new level. This is a great one for getting the wrist hinge which is a vital part of power and consistency. Keep at it.
No offense but how can u be a 12 hc without being able to even hit irons. Something is wrong here
@@realdanielpeach you can still score without being a good ball striker
Thank you Paul ,This tip worked as promised. I cant believe how easy it made striking irons.
Fantastic! Just got to do different stuff.
Just tried this. You are 100% correct. Love this! Hitting the ball as far, if not further and with more character with a third of the effort. Great drill, and thank you!
Nice work! It is different but sometimes you need to think outside the box.
This is absolutely one of the best tips I've ever seen ( 9 handicap ). Once you become comfortable with it ( which doesn't take long ) you will be amazed!! It also transferred to the course for me and made an immediate impact . 2 birdies ( because of my iron shots ) , shot an 80. I now incorporate this into my practice....I hit my wedge, 9, 8, 7, 6 irons twice through with this drill before I start my 'normal' routine. Great drill!!
Glad you like it. It does work great for sure. I like you incorporating it into practice. This will be a constant reminder to loosen the wrists.
Thank you again Paul! That was the perfect drill to feel loose wrists in the golf swing! Keep em coming! 👏😍
Glad you enjoyed it. This tips has literally helped thousands of people. I just posted a slight variation of it. Give this one a watch too: kzhead.info/sun/gK2eZaiie2t5npE/bejne.html
Great tip and enthusiasm, can't wait to try this to get trust again in the irons. Thanks for making this video.
Thanks. Give it a try for sure. Tons of comments from those who have tried and and hit the ball amazingly well.
"This is new and different and you're not good at it!" - This is exactly what I need to hear! Always learning as a golfer.
Exactly. Got to do something different. Keep doing your old swing when do you take it to a new level? Especially if you've been doing that swing for 20 years.
Paul Wilson Golf - i went to the range and hit a bucket of balls. Your “string around the axis” analogy helped me hit my clubs better than ever before - even my 5W, 3W and driver! The idea of choking down helped me loosen up my wrists and imagining the face 2 feet ahead of the ball with straight arms, stretched out, helped me hit straighter, more consistent shots. It’s going to take lots more practice, but the seed is planted and I can’t wait to get back out and run those drills again. Thank you!
Very good. Keep at it.
@@paulwilsongolf hey bub Hogan said you gotta Digg the ball outta the dirt with those bladed irons.
Thanks Paul. Watched this video about 6 weeks ago. It has been a game changer for me. Ball goes straighter and further. Have dropped 2 strokes on my handicap. I even use it with my driver. Most importantly I now play golf with a lot more confidence and enjoyment.
Yes, this is a great drill that is helping tons of people. It loosens the wrists which is what I teach. Glad your handicap is dropping. Great feeling when you are heading in the right direction. Keep up the good work.
Brooke Henderson does it and Anthony Kim did it. Tommy Fleetwood chokes down 1" on his driver and is pretty good.
For sure. You can certainly do that if you like. Moe Norman did it too.
Can’t wait to try this. Been trying for years to do this. Even had lessons where the teacher to me that “getting over the ball’ might not be something I would be able to do. Thanks for the tip!
This will get you there. You will finally feel the hinge/rehinge which is what you need to pure irons.
@@paulwilsongolf pretty amazing. I’ve gone from sweeping the ball to see the club Impact after the ball. Also very easy to commit to muscle memory! I purchased some ‘game improvement irons’ prior to watching this video hoping to get more distance. I’m consistently hitting my 7, 175 to 180 yards. Great lesson. Thanks again
Hey Paul, just wanted to come on here and say, I had really been struggling with my irons lately. I watched probably 50 of your videos in a couple day span. My next round was my best ever. I shot a 78, and I just wanted to say thanks. Loose arms , correct hinge, effortless swing
Nice one! So glad you found me and tried it. Now you see it works stay focused and stay loose!!!
Great video! A gift to the game!
Thanks. I appreciate it.
Paul. I tried this drill today, and all I can say is thank you, it is genius. Amazing contact with every club effortlessly. I will make it my job to recommend you to all the guys at the course.
Fantastic! Great drill that is helping a lot of people. Glad you got it too.
I just started playing golf a month or so ago, and I have really struggled with pure iron shots. I can’t wait to go to the range/course this week to test it out. From other comments, this “trick” has seemed to work wonders, so thank you!
Yes, this is helping a ton of people. Just follow it then start to grip up once you are seeing results.
The concept is fantastic. Just tried it at the range. I was pulling the ball prior to this drill. Hit 80% straight today. Felt much more control of the club. Swinging easier is so much better. Can’t wait to try it on the course tomorrow. 🤠⛳️
Glad you liked it. This drill has literally helped thousands of people. Go back to it if you have problems into the future.
Brilliant lesson everything is explained in simple terms. I was having trouble hitting my irons after listening to Paul explain this I went to the practice range and after about 6 shots the strike was pure and straight. I haven't hit the ball as well with so little effort.
Thanks so much. Simple is the key for sure. So glad you are seeing results. Great feeling and it tells you that you are on track. It is about the looseness not about how strong you are or how hard you hit.
Just from lowering your grip?
I never do this but had to come back to this vid and say thank you! Been struggling for months with irons and after practicing this for a couple days I’m striking my irons pure af. Just working on the consistent accuracy now!
Glad it helped! Thanks. This is a good one. It really loosens up the wrists.
You are probably the best instructor on the web, I’m 72 spent 22 days in the ICU with Covid last summer trying to get back in golf I golfed 3 holes than 4 and so on it was a difficult recovery and lost all my distance but I discovered you now I’m back hitting my driver 240 yards average. I was so lost and frustrated, I just want to thank you for making golf fun again
Glad you recovered. Scary stuff. Glad you are getting your swing back too. Keep up the good work.
I think this is the best drill I ever received. I have never hit my irons so solid, and I am actually getting more distance even after chocking down 21/2”. I am not taking divots yet but I am hitting center of the face, and hitting my targets. Thanks so much.
Great to hear! This one is really helping a lot of people. Once you unlock those wrists the power is incredible. Watch this one: kzhead.info/sun/ks6ij96xooyijHA/bejne.html
Thanks Paul for this great content. I took some lessons from a high priced pro, taught me a lot, but then applying that with this has been huge. I've always been able to pop drives out there straight but the second shot has plagued me and my fun. This is giving me a lot of hope.
Sometimes you just need a few things or hear things a different way to latch onto it or fix a thing you've been trying to fix. Glad this one filled in the piece you were missing. A lot of people have benefitting from this drill. Glad you did too.
Thank you so much this video took me from the yips / shanks to puring my irons just like you said! I'm now choked half way down the grip and just may stay there I'm getting a ton of distance and accuracy. Only miss is a bomb hook and I'll take that any day of the week! Thank you Paul!!
Very good. It's great when you see progress instead of frustration. For the hook make sure you grip isn't too strong.
Most definitely won’t cure the shanks but great advice
Why would it cure shanks? That's what this tip is for: kzhead.info/sun/oJ2kmpRta2qojK8/bejne.html Read the comments. I have fixed hundreds.
I could not believe the effect this had on my irons. INCREDIBLE improvement; thanks so much!
So glad you tried it. It's a great tip that unlocks the person's wrists. Good job.
Took up your challenge at the driving range today. Amazing results. Everything you mention in your video is correct. Thank you...
Great job! Glad you kept doing it. Most people quit too early so that's why I came up with the challenge. Now you see the effect keep at it.
After watching a bunch of Paul’s videos, I’ve come to the conclusion that most if not all of swing problems have to do with “trying” to hit the ball. When you try to hit the ball, you are using your arms, and that leads to widely inconsistent shots. The most helpful swing thought for me is the “hinge-unhinge”. This forces you to use your body and leads to an effortless swing. Thanks Paul
You got it. This is so true. Now who wants to hit with arms? Almost everyone. This is why almost everyone needs help with their swing. Pros don't hit solely with the arms. Pros learned as kids when they had minimal arm strength. See it now? Hinge - rehinge is a huge part of it. You get that working then connected to coil - uncoil. Simple.
Wow!! Thanks a lot Paul, that's an excellent lesson. I've tried some swings and You can really feel the hinge more when you shorten the club. Looking forward to hit some range balls with this awesome drill. Keep up the great work... I'll be sharing this with others👍
Glad you like this one. It's really helping people get the hinge as you see. Thanks for spreading the word. One day we will get everyone to stop trying to hit it with their arms.
I lost my swing about 5 years ago, shanking, blocking, slicing......you name it. Stumbled across your site a couple weeks back. Practiced your tips in my garage for 5 minutes a day for a few days, went out and hit my irons pure! No more unmentionables and no longer embarrassed to play with others. You’ve made golf fun again. Look forward to thanking you in person next time I play Bear’s Best. Thanks Paul.
Welcome aboard! So glad you are getting it. Those shots are easy to fix. People get freaked out when they see them. Just a few changes. Glad you are getting the hinging and rehinging with this drill. Also, stand taller with shorter clubs. That will help you stop shanking it. Keep at it. Fun times ahead for you.
I love your channel! You are the best by far when it’s comes to helping other golfers! Thanks so much for everything!
I appreciate that! Thanks for your support.
Paul... this tip so interesting! I cannot wait to try this out on the range tomorrow. Thank you for sharing.
Very welcome. It works great. Just keep at it.
3:11 - That is so good. I'm just now formulating in my mind, that we are swinging the club between hinged at the top, and unhinged 2 feet past the ball. There is no point in between that should get special attention. Whatever lies along that path, between those 2 points, is on a collision course with the club-face. It really is a different way of thinking about the golf swing!
Very good. I keep saying I am not hitting anything.
@@paulwilsongolf I like that. I'm going to repeat that over and over at the range this weekend, "I'm not hitting anything!"
That's it. You've got it right there! It's nice when you have those golf epiphanies isn't it? I love that.
Light bulb moment. I have had many myself.
K iou
This is a great tip. I inadvertently discovered this a few weeks ago after noticing a few pros gripping down. I thought, “huh, maybe I should try that” I’ve always had problems compressing consistently and taking a divot. The shortened grip works for getting the wrists supple and releasing as you say. Thank you!
Glad you liked it. Works great to loosen the wrists. Once you loosen then slowly grip back up.
Paul. I've been playing since I was 2 years old... low single digit handicap for 20+ years... and this is singularly THE BEST drill I've found to improve my impact and get my swing back in rhythm. Thank you!
Thanks so much. So glad you found this one. It has helped countless people and it's simple. Within a few balls you start feeling it. Keep up the good work.
You, sir have helped me hit the best balls of my life. Thank you! Can’t wait to come to Vegas it get a lesson in person.
Any time!
I watched your grip video and it has made me such a better golfer already love the videos
Very good. It all starts with the grip.
Amazing!, Thank you Paul, shared it to my buddies
Thank you so much. I truly appreciate the promo.
I’m 46 and been playing for a long time, yesterday I came back from the range so frustrated feeling the stiffness of trying to hit ball and really tired of that, I’ve tried this but never seriously sticking to it, today is the day I’m changing it, thank you so much!
Yes, there are hundreds of commenters below this tip that it has helped. This unlocks the wrists. Get that and your whole game will change.
Paul, love your videos and found this one especially helpful. Tried it on the range yesterday and it was just like you said. Loose wrists resulted in a nice ball flight. Might try this during today’s round on a couple shots at our club that are always tough for me. Still not sure, even after watching a few times, exactly why this drill works. Is it simply having a little of the club weight above your hands enough to feel different? Thanks again and keep up the good work.
Great to hear! It changes the balance point of the club so you can feel it hinging and rehinging. You do this and you loosen the wrists which is exactly what I am after. Hopefully, you saw the end of the tip where I said once you get it gripping all the way down then start to move up a little then a little more. So today why not grip down an inch to try it?
Paul thank you for the easy to understand videos and explanations, I've watched about and I've finally found where I was making my errors and why I haven't been able to make progress. I've only been been playing gold for about 2 years now, a friend taught me a bit of the basics before he moved so I've been playing on my own with what he left me and from watching others and after my fourth time on the course I decided I won't play on a course until I'm satisfied with my swing at the driving range, unfortunately life keeps you busy at times and couldn't go hit the balls as much as I'd like to and I was advised against watching 'how to' videos because everyone is different and would just confuse a beginner because of all the steps and I agree... Luckily I realised a while back that golf isn't about how hard you hit the ball but I couldn't figure out why my club/driver face kept opening and now I know, I don't hinge I tense up instead as well as not using my hips and legs and following through and a few other things thats wrong with my foundation that I'm looking forward to improving so thank you and I look forward to watching your other videos and putting them into practice... Apologies for the essay
You're welcome. Simple is the way. If you get it you will do it. Just remember, you hit it with your legs and hips not your hands and arms. That alone should make you great.
@@paulwilsongolf agreed simple is best. I just finished watching your video on the neutral grip and I learnt that my grip was completely wrong. Which explains one of the causes to my slicing problem and wrist pain, I believe that the other is not using my hips and legs correctly, I'm very thankful for your videos it's really awesome what you're doing and you explain in a way that anybody can understand and adapt
I'm my 30 years of part time golfing no one has ever told me anything that helped my swing until now. Loosening my wrist has helped my swing tremendously! Thanks!
Very good. Glad you finally help you. Too many people are teaching to hit that ball. In no way would I ever tell you to do that. Your wrists are a hinge. A hinge hinges and rehinges. A hinge is loose. The harder you hit, the tighter the hinge. Then connect it to your body coiling and uncoiling.
Great tip regarding loose wrists! Actually gained distance after gripping back up to normal length.
Good stuff! Now you have the wrists loosened up.
Paul- I did what you asked. It works! I wish I had seen this video before I spent $500 on hybrids! But it works for hybrids too! Nice pure contact, swoosh sound at impact, and ball flies like it’s shot out of a cannon! Thanks so much!!
That's great. So glad you tried it. It is really helping a lot of people. Get those wrists loosened up and it's a whole new game. Keep at it.
UK calling here Paul. I've taken to relaxing much more in my swing - dead arms. Results have been spectacular.
That's great. I love hearing it.
POW!! I stumbled into the sport about 4 weeks ago. Truly enjoying learning and wanted something beyond my own experimentation and learning process. This was the first video I found and watched last night. Tried it this afternoon and am totally hooked on the sport and Paul now. Hit 82 balls working down through my irons 9 to 2 and it was amazing. 98% spot on. An absolute delight to hit straight and pure time after time for two hours regardless of club. Thanks - looking forward to watching all the other videos, quitting my day job and striving for the senior tour! Cheers!
Glad you found me. I keep it super simple which is what you are going to need if you want to get it. Too much confusion out there.

Thank you for making your tips so simple to follow and fun to implement, I have seen great improvement in my golf since i was introduced to your channel.
You're welcome. So glad you are doing well.
Interesting idea to change where to grip (down). I'll try it. I've tried to hit down at times and it never worked. Hopefully this will help
So many people trying to hit and hit down. At some point you would think that didn't work. Well, it doesn't. Not hitting is different which takes a little getting used too. Once you do, you will never look back.
I’ve never felt so impure in my life until this lol! Great video tho
Thanks. Glad you liked it.
😂
Do you also feel uncompressed?
This was the most impressive lesson I've ever seen.......EVER!
Thank you Paul!!!!! Took the bucket challenge at my local range. You were spot on!!! Having issues with my 5 iron before, well not anymore. Thanks again Kevin
So glad you tried it and saw the results. Just takes more the 5 tries sometimes.
already did my first bucket combining low, medium, and normal grip and worked almost perfect!!!!
Nice work! Your wrists are loosening. Imagine what is going to happen in the future.
Paul, I’m playing a round with the boys on Saturday. Do you recommend I do this with a bucket of balls before hole 1 and then work my way up with the grip? Thanks! You are amazing!
Thanks. You can do this but I would be concerned about loosening up. I would be doing this drill at home in practice swings loosening up your wrists. Here is now to beat your friends. When you get to the course you hit only 25 balls. When you hit them DO NOT aim for a target. DO NOT care where the balls go. In fact just hit it and don't even watch it. Once you hit your 25 balls go putt and chip. Now you will step on the first tee with no expectations.
Also hover the club above the ball when gripped down and will force you to go down and take a divot
You can try it but not necessary.
Great, sensible advice that delivers results. Followed your instructions and am now hitting my irons much better without any loss of distance. Thank you, Paul.
So glad you tried it and are doing well. Amazing how it works. Keep at it.
Always go back to this drill at the beginning of the season. Well done!
Very good. This one gets the wrists unlocked which is critical when you have taken a break. Maybe you should be doing this drill in practice swings at home throughout the winter.
Love your videos ! I'm starting to work on the "effortless swing" as I am so guilty of hitting hard at THAT ball ! That said, I tried this drill on my mat today and I will take it to the range tomorrow. But, I found I still tend to just skim the ground thus topping..my major issue. Any suggestions on what I can do to swing effortless while making sure I make complete contact with the ball and ground ? Thank you !
Thanks. Hit the ball then look for it. Also you probably have a chicken wing. Need to work on that kzhead.info/sun/atNvZd6Xp5Zoa6s/bejne.html and here is a good one for you: kzhead.info/sun/mq2Ylr2FfHSGga8/bejne.html
Wish me luck, I just started learning golf😅
Try to keep it simple. Don't work on too much at once. Just remember you are hitting it with your body (legs and hips) not your hands and arms.

@@paulwilsongolf Yes Sir🙋 I'm putting my attention on the lower body👍😁 Thank you🙏💗

Hi Paul, thank you so much for this video simple amazing , I’m new to golf and plan to put this into my practice both at the range and on the course.
Glad it helped. This is a good one for sure.
Came across Paul's yotube videos on Saturday . I can't stop watching.
Very good. Don't work on too much at once.
I get some weird looks when I tee up my ball on the fairway.
Well, if that's what you have to do when you are learning then do it. You will get way worse looks if you are holding people up topping it 10 times down the fairway.
Great Video. Been stuck shooting 100 and above. Struggling with irons , watched this video on Sunday. Sunday afternoon, hit my irons so clean. my best score in years. i shot a 92 and got my first Birdie on a par 4. I also hit all the greens on the par 3's. Thank you
Very good. Simple drill that really gets you loosening up the wrists. Glad you found me.

I didn't have time to practice the drill @ the range before my round, but played the round at your advice to grip down and shaved 5 strokes off my round! And just as Paul said, I found myself hitting purer and just as far shots. I will be playing@ Bear's Best in October and can't wait!
Very good. This is a great drill that will unlock your wrists. Get that and your whole game changes. Keep at it. Look me up when you get here. If you see me teaching just come over and say hi.
You have a natural talent at golf instruction. You are a gift. I have never taken lessons but if I ever did, I would want an instructor like you.
Thanks so much. I appreciate it.
Your full of good ways of developing the correct fundamentals. have always enjoyed your training video's . Thank you Mr. Wilson.
Much appreciated
Something I would never would have thought like gripping all the way down on the club .......made such a drastic positive impact on my irons.
Yes, this is a good one to feel it.
“Yeah you will be hitting your irons pure” Paul I like how you simplify it! You are also so convincing it instills confidence. I’m also laughing because your examples and descriptions of our mistakes are spot on, almost as if we played a round together. If you ever do a clinic on Oahu I’m there. 🤙🏾
Exactly. It is truly mind boggling what people do and don't do. I have a few students from Hawaii. Never been there. It is on my list though.
I have been working with a coach here in Indiana - doing this very drill! It's amazing how it works. I have not been playing very long, about 1.5 years. You have helped me a lot Paul. The guy I'm working with now - has gotten me pretty close to having a nice swing. Thank you Paul
Fantastic! Glad you found someone that seems to be on the same page as I am. Keep at it.
I gave this a bucket yesterday, and I'm gonna give it another bucket this afternoon. Thanks Paul.
Great drill to get the wrists to loosen up. Get that and your whole game changes.
Gave this a try today after watching the video last night. I was amazed at how well this works one of the few tips that will actually make a difference.
This is a great one for sure. A lot of people haven benefitted from it.
Hi Paul, great tip thanks. I never get tired watching your fluid swing. You make it look way too easy.
Thanks so much. I am actually working on a few things right now so I'm a bit of a work in progress. Will smoothen it out more once I trust it. If it looks easy why complicate it?
For the past few months I have really struggled with making solid contact with my irons. I stumbled upon this video last night. Took this drill to the range before my round. BAM best round in months. It is so simple and easy. Did not lose much distance at all gripping down. But shots were much more pure. Also used this technique on my hybrids I actually hit them longer. So glad I found this video. I will not implement this drill into my forever practice routine. Thank you Paul
Very good. This tip has helped thousands of people. It unlocks the wrists which is a huge piece of the swing. So glad you tried it and get results. Yes, please remember it and keep doing it until mastered. Great job!
Thanks Paul, I took the one bucket challenge and I was blown away. Keep up with the great tips!
Very good. People quit too early. Glad you stuck with it.
The best lesson ever. My friends envy the crispy sound of my iron shots after his lesson of gripping down.
Glad you found this tip and worked on it. It really is incredible. Once you get it start to grip back up.
Wonderful tip, it really works. Paul knows what he’s doing
So glad you liked it. This drill has helped a tons of people hit their irons great.
Going to try it today ! Thanks Paul
Have fun!
