Out Of Control
Swing First Lyrics

Broke out of the shell
Nowhere to hide
It's who i am
There's no fighting
What i feel inside
Call it crazy now, think I'm shady how is it wrong that I'm nothing like you
Bound to nothing
Over and out fuck your doubt I'll be something
Take some time to listen
Then you'll find out

Who i really am and what I'm all about
Can't stop me
It's no use
Because I'm
I'M OUT OF CONTROL

I make this comment after playing golf for fourty years and never improving from a high handicapper . I’ve always played with opposing palms , whether having a weak, neutral or strong grip. I thought this was the right approach. I’ve used the chopping method of releasing the wrists with both hands , having to square up the club face either by forehand rotation or body rotation . Worked okay if my timing was spot on but more times than not it wasn’t and the result was a shot that went anywhere. I just accepted that I was never to improve and my whole game depended on forearm or body rotation to square up the club face until I saw this video. I had never seen this approach to the direction palms face when gripping the club . Anyway , I must have been doing many of other things right in my swing because when I implemented Mikes advice it was truly a Eureka moment and I wish I had come across it 40 years ago . Instantly , direction and power improved immensely. Fat and thin shots disappeared . I have strong hands and forearms from the work I do . All of a sudden I started chipping my 9 iron 80 to 90 metres just using my arms and wrists. I’ve had lessons and watched endless tutorials on YouTube and never come across anyone else giving this advice . Maybe it’s a well held secret .
Thanks Mike and keep up the great videos .

I saw another video of you mentioning this grip position. I took it to the course, and while I didn't score very well, mainly because of my putting and short game, I hit the ball much farther and had much better compression with my irons. This is the way I used to grip the club when I was younger. I always thought I should be palm to palm, like with a putter. So, I ended up ruining my golf swing by trying to rotate my hands. Thank you so much for getting me back on track. My playing buddies can't believe the difference!

@brettzimmerman4566

This is amazing, so true, I think of the back of the left hand as the club head so at the take away it has to be down the line like Mike is showing. Totally changed my game.

@tommyruff1286

So basically a very strong grip with the left hand , exposing all four knuckles and the right hand with a relatively neutral grip . Use minimal forearm rotation, otherwise I could see pulls and hook shots resulting with this approach. Remember , chop with the left wrist and push, throw with the right wrist. A great explanation from Mike . Thanks .

That's the best I've heard him describe the reasons for the grip he advocates.

This accomplishes so many things for the swing. 1. from the top, you are less apt to cast the club outward excessively and makes the "arrow out of a quiver/rope handle" start down easier 2. helps keep the left wrist from breaking down through the impact interval 3. It keeps the hand path on plane. 4. because the hand path is lower and around, it helps the body naturally rotate through the swing. 5. helps keep the head back 6. helps promote proper pivot motion and pressure transfer, especially from the top. 7. virtually eliminates excessive club face rotation..on and on.

Pay attention to your hands; monitor your hands. It's a very stable way to have the grip on the club. It's not a cure all but it's close.

@rexxengineering8333

20w↑18

Listen to what Mike is saying, people. If we don’t get this hand action right, NOTHING we do with our body or our pivot will make up for it. If the hands work correctly, it’s possible to hit good shots with lots of different body positions. The body will actually react to the hand action if you let it. Most people teach the other way. They tell students to focus on the body and the hands will react to that. But the hands are pesky. They will do the wrong thing if you don’t train them. The body is more willing to follow the hand action than the other way around. Monte Scheinblum has a drill where he tells golfers to not turn at all and intentionally cast the club from the top. It gets the hands working and, lo and behold, the body reacts and the golfers reach a good impact position.

@charlenemalaska8817

Rex. Yes, the tour players are so good with their hands that they can do whatever they want to do with their bodies. Their hands will make the accommodations to get the face on the ball. The assumption that the body controls the hands is ridiculous. The better they get and the better your swing gets the less you feel your hands. Because they know what to do to get the club in the correct arch to hit the ball. Then the forces just take over. Hands are the game much more than the core. The core is important but at what point does it become a top priority. And what is its priority?

@lookmil107

@@charlenemalaska8817 ….You write: “The assumption that the body controls the hands is ridiculous. The better they get and the better your swing gets the less you feel your hands.”

With all due respect I DO NOT agree. Moe Norman always spoke of his “passive hands” through impact. Ben Hogan famously wrote that he wished he had “3 right hands” through impact. Obviously, two great ball strikers feeling something very different with their hands through impact. Why? Because Moe Norman was undoubtedly as pure “swinger’ of the club, while Hogan was the quintessential “hitter.” Both could ACCELERATE through impact, but it was Hogan who also used his unhinging hand action to increase his acceleration.

Ben Hogan said the first move in the downswing was to move the hips. By moving them first and correctly, Hogan said that alone practically made his swing….and I could not agree more with Hogan. The body swings the weight of the club head….100%. Think of the Olympic hammer throwing event which is essentially the throwing of a very heavy ball attached to a chain. The guy spins around and around as he increases his speed. This is all being done with the body, not the hands. The golf swing is the exact same.

Mike , I believe educating your hands is so overlooked. I was taught via ex Ryder Cup player who had been an assistant to the great ' hands ' exponent Henry Cotton to train/educate my hands firstly. I was taught to manipulate the clubface so I could hit high and low draws and fades. Hitting shots with feet together, hit and stops, hitting a line of half a dozen balls without stopping, hitting balls without regripping etc etc. I went from beginner to a good 4 handicap at a good course in about two and a half years. Problem is most teachers don't teach this. Hogan said he wished he had three right hands ?

One question if i may, would you be able to do a video on shaft angle/lean at address using the Malaska cam? Reason being there are clear contradictions on youtube and even with coaches with face to face, some stating the shaft should be vertical and perpendicular to the ground, other say it should lean forward at address and run inline with the lead arm.

Think, wrists hinge, that a bad move would be to turn the left wrist down, therefore no hinge. It hinges, pure and simple. Mike touches on the force of the upper arm bones that sling the golf club head and then the wrist hinge makes the golf swing work like a trebuchet. Energy in the system is transferred through the wrist hinge to club head speed.

I am sure that it does. Line of compression and functional joint alignments are the same regardless of what you are doing. Joints want to line up in certain ways to create force and protect the joint. I understand what that is. Sometimes you can get data that is also misleading. It is dependent on the parameters set up by the Tests. In my world usually, instinct is a good place to start. Then figure out why that is the way it is done in most all ball bat or racket sports. The body does not know what sport you are playing it only knows patterns. It is a pattern machine. Then it uses those patterns in different planes with different objects called multiple sports.

@geekone6621

20w↑1

I think one useful point to make that is often missed as far as the hands, is if you agree the club face is on a circle and the right wrist is bent back, causing the moving of the club face back from the ball 3-5”, then to get the club face back to the ball on a circle without flipping, the hands must be starting up on the left inside part of the circle as club face compresses the ball. Many people swing the hands down the target line, when they should actually be more inside left throwing the club face down the target line. If you don’t flip the wrists, bow the left wrist down, or cast early, there is no other way to close the face at contact if the hands are not on left upside of the circle already moving to the left of the target line. I hope that makes sense …

@geoffw8565

No, that does't really make much sense !

@geekone6621

20w↑1

@@geoffw8565 Well, if you make circles of club face and hands, accepting the hands are always inside of the club face. If you are compressing the ball with the right wrist/hand bent back, then the hands must be forward. So, if the club face is at the bottom of the circle (or very close to it) at contact, then the hands on their circle must be left and rising away from the target line at impact… With the right wrist/hand bent back, the hands cannot also be at the bottom of their arc when the club face is … so, if you are trying to swing your hands straight down the target line you are throwing the club out of alignment. The hands must be going up and to the left at impact…the up motion of the handle throws the club down and the left action close the face as the club swings out to the right from the inside.

In my experience (and I'm no expert!) when I move my arms and the club (in the back swing) with only upper body turn (shoulders and chest) I get the club in the best position and hit the ball MUCH better. I keep my hands neutral. The momentum created by this turn causes the wrists to set at the top and I can wait in my transition to start the down swing. Key is to keep the shoulders, arms and wrists soft as much as possible.

Changed my game overnight and I can count on one hand how many shots I’ve hit more that 15-20 yds offline. In other words, no penalty strokes for a tee ball OB to blow a round. From 8-9 handicap to scratch almost overnight. Anyone teaching folks to let the club fall behind them on the downswing should be in prison for stealing years of great golf from their students!

Johnny, The club actually comes down on a lower plane than it went back on. But most of that happens automatically. It is what the club wants to do if you change directions correctly. In fact, you have to feel as though you tip the club towards the target line out of the top. It is what Mr. Nicklaus meant by saying you can not release the club too soon from the top. The question is what is release.

@lookmil107

19w

Mike, Well done, Thank You. This video will actually help armature golfers. I would also add that by having a relatively strong lead (left) hand grip that also puts the left thumb in a very strong position beginning at approximately hip high and as the club is reaching impact.
Having the right hand essentially “square” to the line of flight through impact has more benefits than most understand. As you know, as a player progresses with this grip, that right hand position through impact will lead to an increased “feel” in face control that will become very meaningful.

If I could suggest a lesson for a future video, why not attempt to help those who struggle with “losing” or “opening” their (trail) right hand as the backswing approaches transition. Certainly those golfers will need to do a right hand “re-grip” just as transition begins. I struggled with this for years but was finally able to sole it.

Thanks again Mike, you are a breath of fresh air.

Missed opportunity to include FLOAT LOAD in this video. YOU say it LEVERS back and LEVERS through. Since this comes naturally to YOU and 100% of PGA Tour Players and most great golfers your missing an opportunity to teach the rest of us about FLOAT LOAD. All of your teaching pro's (and I love you Mike) tend to miss this key element to teach and show in terms that the people watching need to see and feel and execute. So all of that said you say lever it back problem is the lever it back really needs to happen for most of us when we are coming down lie between P4 and P5 this is when we need to FLOAT LOAD it to make sure we are not casting from the top which is exactly what 90% of golfers do. They lever it too early and then start unloading from the top. Look at Scotty at the top - he is still compared to most still not even levered (wrist hinged) at P$ and then his wrist hinge (LAG) or what it really is is call FLOAT LOADING or the act of increasing the wrist cock (lag) going to P5. So then by the time 100% of the PGA Tour players hit P6 they have a 90% wrist angle and the club in parellel with the floor and then hey do you hand motions from there. But people watch this teaching and can't do it because they loaded to fast and start unloading to soon - so the cast from the top, shoulders turn comes out and the hump the downswing. BECAUSE TEACHERS LIKE YOU ARE NOT SHOWING THEM HOW TO PROPERLY FLOAT LOAD AND HOW TO TIME IT AND WHEN TO DO IT OR EVEN WHAT IT IS. Do a series on proper Float Loading, Show what it is, Show drills with simple chipping up to full swing, show timing it and all the options to do it. It is really easy once you can understand it and do some simple drills. Some say effortless power - IT'S PROPER FLOAT LOADING and a game changer - especially for OG's. I have a great swing and accomplished player but was not float loading . I could hit 80 mph with a 90 degree shoulder turn at top (w 7 iron and a 1.36 SMASH). Now I can hit 80 mph with a 70% shoulder turn FLOAT LOADING and have smash factores around 1.4 with a 7 iron. Same club speed. More distance because better smash cause I was killing myself to get rotation.
