#golflesson #golfswing #effortlesspower START WITH 5 FREE LESSONS at https://www.facefirstgolf.com In this lesson, Craig Jones shows you how to unlock effortless power in your swing by using the golf club the way it was designed — as a tool. You’ll learn why most players are releasing when they should be holding (and holding when they should be releasing), and how to flip that pattern for more distance with less strain. Craig breaks down the “inverted chicken wing” method, keeping the elbows close and pointed down throughout the swing to prevent the over-the-top move. With a towel-under-arms drill, a strong grip setup, and a closed stance adjustment, you’ll see how to create a natural inside-out path that sets up the forearm rollover release for true speed and compression. You’ll also see the swing in slow motion, with a clear look at the lag, inside path, and rapid clubface rotation that make effortless power possible — even with a shorter swing. ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 – Why effortless power matters for distance and scoring 0:25 – The golf club as a tool: efficiency vs. wasted motion 1:12 – What most golfers do wrong with release 1:40 – How to build effortless power in your driver swing 2:05 – The “inverted chicken wing” elbows-down concept 3:03 – Why over-the-top players struggle with release 4:25 – Using a closed stance to promote inside path 5:08 – Iron + towel drill for elbows together 7:05 – Strong grip and stance adjustments for driver setup 9:06 – Adding the hip bump to set up spine angle 9:32 – Short swing, big drive demonstration 10:06 – Key checkpoints: depth, elbow down, inside path 11:04 – Slow-mo look at the forearm rollover release 12:14 – Elbows down and synchronized hands/arms/body 13:10 – Final thoughts: effortless power is real and learnable What You’ll Learn: Why effortless power is about efficiency, not strength The “inverted chicken wing” method to keep elbows down How a strong grip and closed stance promote the inside path A simple towel drill for training release at home What a proper forearm rollover release looks like in slow motion How to sync up your hands, arms, and body for max speed #golflesson #golfswing #effortlesspower #chickenwing #golfdrills #driverdistance #facefirstgolf #golftips #golfinstruction #compressyourirons #hititlonger
