Yeah, i have to continue working on my short game. can hit pretty well with my longer clubs but inconsistencies arise as they get shorter.


@remmy100 Afterthought. If you watch Mr. Nicklaus work his way through the bag, you’ll really notice that the base of his neck is in the same position in relation to the ball at impact. This is a key element in building “one basic swing”.


@remmy100 Had the same problem. Try making a real concious effort keeping the hands in front of the Left chest, and keeping your hip pockets slightly behind your heels and you back flatter and straighter throughout the swing.Along with a steady head, this will keep both ends of your spine angle intact . This becomes more critical as the clubs get shorter. One last thought, your ball position should be determined by the position of the base of your neck through impact . Good luck. Vic V.


if you ask me i think that he did not have the best golf swing in the world but he was absolutely amazing with his putter which is all you really need to be good at if you want to be a pro golfer i love this video though really instructional


@remmy100 dude u try to imitate nicklaus swing, but no one can copy the greatest swing in golf


i tried to imitate his swing yesterday, and so far i’m pleased with the results. only thing is that when i try to pitch with my 9 ir, i have to aim slightly left of target.


funny how easy he swing the driver here. watch him play in his youth and there was no such easy swings. he was crushing it


@durs6 another armchair critic. how many majors have you won dickhead? Get a life and leave the true legends of the game alone. asshole


@durs6 I’m sure you know what your talking about BUT, I think most would prefer to listen to a cripple who who has proven himself many times :)


the left foot lift is the most important part of his swing. it allows him to get slightly off balance but snap it back= more weight transfer. same as top tennis players. double tap your left heel to extend the reflex tendon action= more transference. try it, it will mess up your timing but increase 40 yds i would keep back straighter though as he had A BAD BACK FOR NEARLY HIS ENTIRE CAREER. SO YOU REALLY WANNA COPY A CRIPPLE? im a pro- so i know


It does. Jack was taught to keep his hips level throughout the swing. as the swing got longer with the longer clubs, he allowed his heel to be pulled off the ground. What’s most impressive about his footwork is how he begins his transition to the downswing by mashing that heel back into the ground as he shifts into his left side. I believe that Jack Nicklaus had the most ‘dynamic’ swing in the history of the game. Maybe not technically ‘perfect’ like Hogan’s, but more dynamic.


Good extension with every club, even at his age during production.


Man Jack really bowed his left wrist through impact. In my book he is the best long iron player ever, he could hit a one iron better than anyone who ever lived.


Notice how he keeps that left arm straight throughout the swing. That is the key to consistently hitting solid shots


Great video of Jack, would love to see it in hd.
Super swing !


Looks like when he gets to his 3W n Driver his left heel comes off the ground.


Awesome tune :)
