“I finally believe I understand what 'shallowing' the club really means and how to achieve it!"

“The explanations and demonstrations are very helpful in understanding how everything works together to get the hands leading the club head at impact... I have never understood how I could get a fade while shallowing the club, now I do."

“Went to the range yesterday... 7i and up through driver was able to feel and see a huge difference. Today, played eighteen... it seemed to 'click' and was able to carry to the course... sorry about not commenting about any negatives, but this just works well."

"I have played 2 rounds since watching this video and the improvement is huge. 50-70-90 yard shots go high and land soft. Just amazes me that by using this method how I just feel the swing."

"These are awesome drills, hitting the pitch shots way more flush and accurate while eliminating any chunked shots."

"I’ve struggled with short chips. Played yesterday after reviewing your chipping videos. Sank two short ones the first time out, so thanks for the technique. It makes a lot of sense to me."

"Absolutely the best instruction videos I have seen, I have been watching golf videos for years by different instructors only to be confused by all the different ways of doing the same thing. Clay and TopSpeed Golf puts it all together and tries to make sure the student knows how and why to hit every shot."

"Top Speed just gets better. Wedges especially around the green used to drive me nuts, one fat, one thin, one scoop, one shank. I... never knew a method to deliver a reliable shot. Definitely bad for the nerves until NOW. Thank you a bunch! It’s great to know you are not going to duff a shot like that so close to the green. Another secret I will keep for a while."

"This has been a great series to enhance my wedges, which have always been my strength. These are 'money maker' lessons that I will continue to watch over and over again. Thanks for the great work!"

"Awesome drill, hitting the pitch shots way more flush and accurate while eliminating any chunked shots."

"I wanted to get better fast and so I moved directly to my irons and my wedges. The absolute worst part of my game... I practiced and practiced and still couldn't hit my wedges worth a crap. Chunked them, bladed them, even when I did hit it well I had little distance control. It was killing my game.

I can now hit chips! I can now hit pitch shots! I can even brush the ground almost perfect on every swing. After only two rounds and a couple of practice days I am consistently breaking 90 and even shot an 84. I have a short game now and couldn't tell you thank you enough."

"This has been huge for me. I’ve been struggling with my short chips but this gave me many great ideas. The follow through has been crucial and something I've been missing."

"This is another great instruction video! With open club face and address, I was able to hit some crisp shots that bite."

"I went out to play the other day and I kept track of my putting strokes. I am embarrassed to say that I had 45 putts, (10 three putts). So I decided to view your putting videos again. I realized that my grip was way off. Your technique using the “life line” really gives me more control without gripping too tightly. My old grip was NOT consistent at all. Using your advice is a lot more comfortable as well."

"Clay this works great! I was amazed at the improvement. I was hitting a group of 5 golf balls from 8 feet and I think the worst I did was holing 2 from 5 balls each time. My misses were all pretty close. I’m sold, it works!!!!!"

“Clay, thank you so much for this series on pull hooking. I am a lifelong serial offender but for the first time after 30+ years of golf I think I am getting somewhere. Best money I’ve ever spent ???? You know I tried all that stuff with the box etc to stop coming over the top but to no avail. It wasn’t until I watched your focus on the tilt to the right at address (and stay tilted) that I started to find a cure. Thanks for all that you do. You really have a passion for this."

“Clay, absolutely awesome!!! My mis hits are a pull draw yet I refused to believe my path was out to in because I felt like I was swinging towards first base. Just goes to reiterate the saying of what you feel like you’re doing isn’t always what you are doing. You finally got it through this thick skull that it is my path. Now I know if I look up and see the ball going left to left, exactly what caused it and how to correct it. Keep up the great work."

“Just marked this video, not only as a favorite, but my “all time” favorite. First off, I don’t snap-hook the ball. So why is it so important to me? I think in this video you managed to address at least 6 things that I do in my swing that have kept me from making a good solid pass at the ball. It seems very clear to me that incorporating all these moves to hit a “baby fade” will help my game enormously. I think in this video you’ve hit on a whole new approach to playing great golf."

"Clay–this series of videos resulted in remarkable improvement in my impact, distance, trajectory. Really an improvement."

"Wow. That explanation regarding how feel shifts fits me perfectly. A real OMG moment."

"Love this drill, I was able to hit a draw at the range today. Thank you"

"Drill seemed quite easy, helped me quickly correct some OTT that crept back into my swing (getting kind aggressive on long sticks, mainly). An interesting thing I noticed was if I didn’t get enough tilt in my spine, primary and secondary, I would end up still spinning out a bit, and not getting it solid or compressed. Together, it was absolutely money! I’ll be continuing this swing drill even in my warm ups at the course."

"Played in a charity tournament yesterday and our foursome had a side bet. Came down to the last hole I hit a fairly good drive, but it came to rest in very tall grass to the right of the fairway. A huge tree was standing over me like an ogre. It’s branches hung out over the fairway blocking a straight shot to the green. From a horrible lie, I couldn’t use a normal 9 or 8 iron to gauge it out of the mess. If I could only run a shot low, with a lot of spin, up a steep hill with bunkers left and right. I said 'hell, I just learned a shot that’ll work here.' I pulled out my 2 hybrid, set up with the ball back in my stance, turned the face about 30 degrees closed and turned my shoulders to the right. I swung away, the ball exploded out of the junk, scampered up the hill, onto the green, 8 feet from the pin. Lipped out, but made par and won our match... The ball ended up EXACTLY where I hoped it would. So thanks for this 'cheat.'"

"Thanks for that lesson, it’s made me a very happy golfer. From chunking my irons I’ve now gained yards! It’s made me realise how easy it is to slip into bad habits, you think you’re playing reasonably well, and then the problems occur. When I reviewed my swing I noticed almost a complete absence of weight shift which led to the fat shots. Simple remedy, practise the drill and boy did it work."

"Hi. Great video. I’m a new, single handicap member and thoroughly enjoying the membership. The 5 steps taught has helped my ball striking capabilities immensely."

"Clay, thanks for these suggestions. Today I keep my eyes on the back of the golf ball. I made much improved contact! Hit the ball much better than I have in years."

"My first instructor never even mentioned compression or hands in front of the ball at impact. He had me breaking 100 in a matter of months, but I never got any better than a 24 handicap. I was in my early 40s and fit as a fiddle. Now, I am 63 and feel like I can lower my handicap despite my diminished flexibility."

"I am enjoying the videos and have been a member for only a couple of days… went to the driving range and noticed improvement."

"Appreciate the 50+ series, I am 50+ myself and I recognize the issues you mention."

"Clay, this video along with the hip turn, I have gained about 20 yards on my drive and my irons are solid and crisp."

"These are another great series of videos to save extra time for improving my golf through practice in a very scientific way. I myself have wasted a lot of time by setting chaotic goals with unreasonably difficult shots for my level. Now I’ll work on practicing with specific and increasingly tough ones to make these shots move to the Comfortable zone."

"I love practice almost as much as playing, and over the years I have been fortunate with learning from watching other players practice. What struck me very early is that most players use the range incorrectly, in that there is no real purpose to their time there other than to just swing away. Preparing for the range to me is more important than preparing to play. Your awesome videos help me to determine what a more precise use of my time on the range. Thank you."

"I love this series, Clay. This is great info!! I am always wondering if I am practicing correctly and am very happy you are covering this area."

"Best video and drill on the site, really helps you crush, compress and melt the golf ball staying in your posture and feeling that straight line extension and not sliding the hips at impact."

"Great video... I have been struggling with pulls, shanks, and topping. I started working on this video last night. I played golf this morning and had my best round this year (bogie). I hit the ball straighter than ever... It's funny how one bad habit can effect everything else."

"This video graphically and dramatically demonstrated that the right shoulder has to maintain itself in good posture and drive through the hitting area in sync with the arms and wrists. I now see that I certainly have early extension and certainly have a flipping move with my arms and wrists... real eye-opener. Thanks guys. You do a great job explaining things, that's why you're in the best in the business."

"Best video and drill on the site, really helps you crush, compress and melt the golf ball staying in your posture and feeling that straight line extension and not sliding the hips at impact."

"These videos have helped me get forward shaft lean and stay in my posture. Also helped me stop early extension and early release. My ball striking has vastly improved."

"I watched this video twice and found the reason why I have been coming out of the shot that has been plaguing me for years. I had always been told to drive my right knee to the ball in the downswing which caused my right hip to stand me up. Today I played using your advice to stand tall, move my left hip properly, turn my shoulders correctly. Fantastic results! Piercing irons and drives that had me stunned. Most helpful video ever."

"My bad back has disappeared and my fluid spine and turn has improved significantly. More stability and club head speed. This stuff is vital to improvement, so good on you for comprehensively covering the field. Thanks."

"Thanks so much for the flexibility exercises and all the great info and facts you provide.. you’re the best!!!! I’m an older golfer and need to stay flexible into my 80s and 90s…"

"This is an excellent stretching exercise! I saw immediate improvement, I will try this frequently, especially before a round."

"After almost 6 months recovering from a shoulder injury, these exercises are really what I needed... those two-minute durations are a big change from what I used to do and they are really helping me."

"FINALLY! I had asked about mental game videos for a while. They are hard to find on instructional sites, which tend to focus solely on swing mechanics. But actually there is an argument that can be made that mental instruction should be one of the first things taught, since it may apply (depending on what the mental lesson is about) to how you are going to work on any of the fundamentals of the Top Speed Golf System, or any other instruction."

"Dr. Thad and Clay, thank you very much! I believe this is such a huge part of the game yet no one really ever teaches us or discusses what we need to be working on as far as mental goes. I learned this “6 threes” years ago but have gotten away from it. Thanks for the 5 resets, that is great stuff and I loved your last line “have fun and enjoy the game” actually a goal of mine this year is to enjoy it a lot more and not get as caught up in the score and what I need to be doing."

"Another great aspect of an already great golf system, most of us don't appreciate how much the gremlin in our skull can affect or game/life."

"Just wanted to say that I took the 6x3's idea out on the course today for the first time and it was a great success for me. Definitely something I will use every time from now on. THANKS Thad!"

"It’s winter here so I can’t really go out to a range but I have a net in my garage and a radar. I started the indoor winter series which I find very useful."

"Then I found Office Hours and this guy Q would answer my questions directly and clearly without stealing my wallet. It just kept getting better."

"Clay Ballard is a great teacher. TSG is a great resource. Q and the Office Hour videos are super. The price is excellent, affordable, worth it. The teaching style and content can’t be beat."

"You seem to have a video that always answers my current question. If not, I find time to use Office Hours. I have never felt any of my questions have been left unanswered."
