Hi Shawn … after our lesson and now just watching this video the revelation for me is that the 20 and 40 yard shots are the swings which are “on the way” to the 60 yard swing which has the full hinge. That is for the full swing the initial phase will look like the 20 yard shot, then the 40, and finally unto the 60 yard swing (with a bit of levitation up the ribcage as you put it — which will happen naturally for the longer clubs). For the 20 yard shot we are only engaging pendulum number 1. For the 60 yard both pendulums are fully engaged. Then after “riding up” to the 60 yard back swing there is tons of space and the club “in front” — because if not then you can’t let momentum take over and the club will not return to the path of the intermediate point. These “check points” are going to be key for me to getting my backswing on track (but of course not reverting these to being position checks and always using the legs and but swivel to heave the club back). Anyway I hope my thinking is sound but please correct me if I’ve missed a nuance. My routine in practice will now be the 6 6 6 with fade // draw and doing the 20 40 60 for each shot before executing the full swing. Hopefully that will help ingrain this!
and thanks for the video!!! it really make clear our lesson and what I’ve been missing.
Very good! 🔥👍👊👌
Hope the wedding was fun Coach! This video is so good! I’ve been doing a lot of backswing work. I realized I was lifting my arms IN the takeaway, not allowing the trail arm folding to get the club up
When I lift, pause, let it fall it basically goes out to in. No access to the right side of the IP
When I just rotate the body to start the backswing first, getting the ribs out of the way with conviction in the takeaway, I have access to the right side of the IP
Great mile markers!
The wedding was incredible! Thank you!
and great Ah Ha moment in this comment post; thank you for that! It will help many!!

I have been watching for a couple of months now and have been making improvements to my swing. I loved you story about the Dart throwing and after watching this one on the backswing I can honestly say the dispersion of my shots is getting tighter! however I lost some distance due to also putting a pause at the top of my swing which has forced me to slow down in my downswing and get to the ground before easier and not over rotate. I love the accuracy but need to now work on getting distance back. Suggestions?
Also my driver swing has gone off a bit and need to refine that to get rid of a slice that has come in along with a lower ball flight and sometimes hitting the ball at the very top of the club at times.

Hey Joe! Normal at first as you are controlling the action and this is like driving your car with the foot on the brakes and on the gas at the same time. See “driver tip of tee” video as well as “alignment reset” series, “blur of club” and “arc-blur unstoppable momentum series”
I just wanted to tell the WIG world that I had a 220 yard drive two days ago. My longest are 200. First drive of that day and nothing that distance since (lol) but encouraging.
Congrats on the new benchmark Krista! Now that the brain has it, it will continue to organize around getting it more for you. You got a good dose of dopamine on that one and that is the breadcrumb trail it will use to get it back; the key is stay with the process and don’t try hard or try to repeat! 😝
Thank you so much for everything, I hit a hard wall this morning with someone telling me about MY swing positions, so that was a fun psychological test…. it just solidified how grateful I am to the work you, Sav and Mu are doing. Peace and happy wedding vibes
Stick to your guns Krista! 😝👍💪👊
Don’t stray like i did Krista! I’ve enjoyed watching your progress through the comments and the forum. Great drive!
