Now that you know “carrying” lag is one of the keys to more distance, you need to know what your body position should be at impact. In this second training video you’ll see where your body should be and why. We’ll debunk the myth of “square” body at impact. Plus, I’ll show you that you already have a great lag position in your swing, and that the issue isn’t “how do you create more lag” on the downswing but “where are you losing it?” You’ll learn a lot from the leaning balance exercise in this video!

VIDEO #3: THE BALANCED SOLUTION DISTANCE
Balance is one of the absolute swing fundamentals that affects your distance, your consistency, and your accuracy. You MUST get this right before you start to tackle any other issues in your swing. I’ve got a neat exercise that will quickly and dramatically improve your athletic balance – which means you’ll almost immediately improve your distance and your consistency. You can learn it in just a few swings, and then integrate it into your pre-shot routine. I encourage you to learn the “Happy Toes” drill, then take it to the course as soon as possible.

VIDEO #4: THE 5 DISTANCE SWING KEYS
There are five fundamental aspects of the swing that affect your distance. The best way to learn them is through systematic training with specific drills. I learned the hard way, but you don’t have to. I’ll show you the five keys to distance and the training program I put together to help you learn, practice, and integrate the keys into your golf swing. I’m absolutely certain you can learn to hit the ball farther than you do right now if you put in the effort to master these fundamental concepts. CLICK HERE for VIDEO #4

does my hand stay flat and at 90 on all clubs. I want to play Sunday afternoon
Hi John – I think you are referring to your left wrist, and the answer is that it stays relatively flat, particularly at the top of the swing. Cupping will cause the club to cross the line and force you to manipulate it somehow on the downswing. Timing can be difficult. Best to keep the left wrist flat.
An excellent video, superbly presented in plain and simple terms that even a simpleton like
me can understand. I purchased your 5 keys to distance program which was great. This
is the icing on the cake. Thank you.
Regards Alan
Thanks Alan! Golf doesn’t have to be complicated, and knowledge is a powerful thing. Keep ‘em in the short grass!
Eric you are one of the best instructors around! Brilliant! Never really understood the concept of lag until now or how to implement it.- also would like to ask what a few others have already vis a vis do you apply this technique to the other clubs as well and irons?
Good Stuff…Very good stuff
Awesome, I have been told about lag and the whoosh drill in the past but never have I had it explained so simply.
Hi Eric, Thank you, after 20 years of playing Golf I’m now starting to see an overall improvement in my game, the most enjoyable part has been the much improved distance and accuracy from the tee. The whoosh drill makes sense to me and I believe this is the right path to improve my game even further, my handicap has now been reduced and looking forward to it coming down even more.
mmmm!!! interesting..cann’t wait to see the next one..all 4!!
Great stuff…I want to see more.
Wow! Can’t wait to try this whoosh drill
Outstanding video.
Hi .. just got your vidio and itlook’s good..
going to driving range tomorrow .. can’t wait
will tell you more
Eric- thank you for your explanation on the lag, you are the best!
it is simple yet very useful in increasing my golf ball distance.
@ 65 I’m now trying to develop your swing to my game. I no longer can turn as well as I could previously after 2 Hip replacements but at least I now can see what I must try. Thanks for the great tips.
Eric, Great explanation of how to hold lag! John
Hi Eric, I can see myself improving my distance, thank you, your magic.
Great advice, I’ve been losing distance by trying to “stay square” at impact.
Hey Eric, I want to upgrade to your gold membership and I could not find the add to cart…I have tried thru email with no response…Is there a phone number that I can call!! Thanks Rob…BTW You are a wonderful teacher!
I really love your golfing instructions. In fact, the best of all instructions i ever watched and learnt.
Resulted in increased my ball distance and accuracy. Please to report that I won my club monthly medal twice and runner up 4 times. My handicap has reduced by 10 to 8 despite I am 60+ now.
Thank you.
great lesson
I am 81 years old and struggling a bit to connect via the website. I want to come to the website and work from there if possible. Thanks for all the help you can give. I also bought another DVD to be sent to my son Eric Slater
Absolutely Great Video. Specific and highly logical. Occurs to me that carrying the lag forward through the strike zone also places the body in a position of greater strength. Take it from an old softball pitcher. I visualize staying down and coming under with the motion. All power and big muscles. Whipping the pitching arm through at the last second always produced a perfect rise ball. I’m almost eighty, and I’m hoping your following emails are only half as good as this first one. This is a cinch to put a minimum of 20 yards on my feeble 200yd drive.
I can’t wait to get to the driving range and try out this drill. I hit the ball good every once in a while and was always so puzzled that I could not hit the ball everytime. Well now I know why I was casting my driver way before the release point. This should really make a big difference in my game. Thank you so much and keep the video’s coming.
Tom Holmes
very helpful
Thank you that ‘s a little more clear to me now.
Probably the best description of developing “lag” I have ever seen, especially dispelling the myth of having the shoulders square at impact. Than you.
I have a 15-degree loft on my driver with a shaft that is 1″ shorter than standard. It is a Tour Edge JMAX Gold. Also it is an offset Driver. What effect will this have on the technique you are teaching? For example, can I still add 20 yards to my drives? I really need the extra distance. I only average 185 yds. with this driver. My drives are almost always in the middle of the fairway but I’d love to be able to get even more than 20 yds more.
Great video on holding lag. Pro’s, I believe, use to say hit with a braced left side or pull up on the left shoulder not around.
you truly are the best and easiest to understand-short & to the point.You are the only one who can communicate this difficult topic in simple terms so everyone gets it! I tried your first tip on happy feet-wow-pow the light went on for me-been playing for 30 years-still taking lessons always trying to improve on my 1 handicap.
does this also apply to senior golfers i am 70yrs old
I just submitted my order (Silver). How do I get started? Should I get an email with the instructions?
