What Paige Spiranac Teaches
The Basics of Golf by Paige Spiranac
Her flagship lesson covers the entire swing from start to finish—from the grip to the held finish—with a simple reference point at each stage. She emphasizes address posture, ball position, and a specific weight distribution from address through the finish—a true roadmap for beginners as well as those who want to brush up on their fundamentals. A Reminder of Some Golf Basics by Paige Spiranac.
A Lesson Built Step by Step
What makes this video so effective is its structure. Rather than piling on tips, Paige Spiranac follows the order of the swing: club grip, stance, ball position, backswing, downswing, and then a held finish. At each stage, she provides a single tip that’s easy to remember on the driving range. The section on weight distribution is particularly helpful: by quantifying the weight distribution from the address to the finish, she gives beginners a concrete way to check that they’re properly shifting their weight toward the target instead of staying on their back foot.
It's a good starting point before moving on to more technical lessons, such as those on swing plane or the Body Rotation.
Grip and Posture
In this same lesson, she starts with grip and posture—the two points that beginners most often overlook. To learn more, see the lessons Grip and Address Posture and Position.
