hey christo,
looking sharp
….mate just a quick question
….do you still play with flatter lie irons ?
….if so what degrees?
cheer steve?
Could someone please check out my swing and give me some points. Thanks?
I really enjoy all your videos, solid swing. Looks amazing, keep up the
good work.?
Helplessly delusional and silly you are not. Passionate and enthusiastic
about the best sport ever indeed. This is the exact reason why your videos
are so successful. Due to MSE, I started my own journey and am starting to
see big gains in my ball striking and consistency. You inspired me on my
own swing evolution….most importantly, I get excited about practice.?
Christo,
Just curious as to what your carry yardages are these days. Care to list
them by club for us all??
awesome swing man really fun watching your vids and seeing the improvement
and dedication you have to create your own hogan swing ?
Getting there, but need to create more secondary axis tilt in transition.
Look at Hogan’s spin tilt away from the target at address vs impact. It’s a
shallowing move which is a great thing. Bacon strip divots and not pork
chops. Lateral move of the lower body starts it as long as you keep your
head back. The added tilt helps to drop the club into its slot and
contributes to that “float load” look. It’s not all arms dropping. Good
luck!?
Watching you swing is like watching old, flickering 16mm footage of Hogan
at Riviera, circa 1950’s. Bravo! It’s a thing of beauty.?
good vid, really enjoyed this one?
Ive read 5 lessons cover to cover many times, i never read anything with
the term float load????
Good luck with your journey! I really enjoy your stories along the way.
btw looks like Kim Jong Un was practicing behind you. You should have cured
his very strong grip at least.?
Your float-load concept has gotten you to swing on a better tempo I find.
You have a slower transition to swing through the ball, and got your
backswing slightly longer. Great job dude!?
LMAO! So true. But to be honest, I think we’re all hopeful and delusional
at the same time. If there is one thing that I try to work on, it is impact
position, distance and dispersion. Everything else is what it is. I have
spent over 5 years trying all kinds of ideas, positions, feels and mental
thoughts. I have tried imitating Hogan, Snead, Trevino, Nicklaus, Tiger and
Cabrera in those 5 years. I have to tell you I had many AHA! moments but
still nothing was ever solid. Then I ran into Shawn Clement and have never
looked back and have not regretted what I have learned from him. I could go
on but that is where I’m at with my swing. Peace!?
As the boys on my golf team would say…”THAT’S DISGUSTING!!” And that is
their code for “Very very awesome.”?
Nice shoulder turn!?
Would love to be able to practice like that. There’s 4-5 inches of snow in
the south of Sweden today, so I’ll have to wait to test this. Looks great.
Good luck with the photo shoot :o)?
great i was on a 15 handicap now on 6 in just 4 weeks thanks to you christo
youre the man?
Christo, been a fan for a while now, but as I take my own journey, I’ve
dabbled in different swing theories. I have noticed, especially in set up
and takeaway, that your swing has some similarity to Stack and Tilt (weight
forward, minimal lateral movement, deep takeaway). Did you ever look at
S&T before this? Do you see the comparison? Am I delusional as well? :)?
“The joy I feel is immeasurable,” you say. Well, I feel the exact same way
about playing golf. I’m so very much enjoying watching your journey
because my journey has been kind of identical. I’m sure so many people who
are following you experience the same immeasurable joy in playing golf,
studying golf, and hitting pure shots. Keep up the good work. I played
golf with a guy who loved golf like us and we talked golf throughout our
entire round. I would love to play a round with you and I’m sure the same
thing would happen.?
Mr G, do you actually manually set your right wrist I’m the backswing from
the takeaway ?
?
It appears that you’ve dropped your “caddie drag” move away from the ball.?
Hi Christo,
your swing looks great as always, but a was watching some old MSE videos
and came across Hogan’s Elbows, and I really like your high finnish there.
Quite like Hogan and such great balance too. Now your finninsh looks much
lower and sometimes a bit detached I think. Any toughts??
finally you start listening to me – bravo ! 2 suggestions, since you’re
starting the lateral slide prior to impact you need to start positioning
the ball off the left heel to compensate. “Leave” the left knee “behind”
the left hip on the way down. both of these moves allow you to narrow your
possibilities closer to the center of the fairway. I see you decided to
aim to the right with your feet finally too. You’re looking even more
solid all around lately.?
Hey man, love the vids. One question, There’s a lot of instruction and I’ve
noticed this from watching tour pros too that your head should always be
behind the ball( or left ear behind the ball to be more precise) at address
and at impact. How do you feel about this because I noticed that you don’t
setup that way??
Hahaha yes I am the same, it is the greatest game on earth!!!!
?
Remember that even though Hogan spoke often about Hip Turn, in actuality he
had a HUGE lateral Hip Shift forward then (and only then) a turn. This is
truly the precursor to the modern swing.?
Hello again, now your cooking. Really stunning transition move. Also love
the lag buildup up top. The beginning of the lateral move before you
complete the backswing is vintage Hogan. I would just take it a bit
further. I think you’re a move away from the whole package. Would love to
see your upper body further behind the ball at impact. The lateral move
forward should be just with the lower body. Don’t be afraid to disconnect
the upper and lower body in the downswing. The lower lateral move can be
taken to its physical limit then the hip turn will happen naturally. With
the lateral shift at its limit the upper torso may feel as if it is hanging
back. With the hips far forward and the head stationary (or a bit further
back) the spine will have to tilt rearward into impact. Keep it up.?
lol that old asian guy was totally trying to scope some of your moves there
:)?
