Description

Sometimes well intended projects have ill effects. I'd put Youtube Golf Videos into this category.

I honestly believe that people go onto YouTube with the intention of helping golfers get better. In reality, I don't think there is a coach in any sport with the intention of making any one worse at a sport, most coaches have a genuine desire to help people.

However, I think that in general the Youtube format is not well suited to help people improve.

I'll give you a quick 5 reasons why I am making this bold claim:

  1. Your Grip and Hands do EVERYTHING in the golf swing
  2. The Golf swing works in 3D, which means if you change one thing, you have to change 2 other corresponding things for it to work and keep working
  3. The Golf swing is subject to the direction of momentum, and often times you cannot see on video how this momentum is affecting your swing
  4. Feel is Never real
  5. Small things make big differences in Golf
