Shawn, do I need to brace the tilt when doing the perpetual motion drill practice?
Great question!
Not during the whole movement; you don’t want to feel like you are resisting the backswing’s kinetic chain.
As you get to the top of the backswing, they feel the pressure hit the left ankle, use this pressure to brace the head from moving forward and let the swing glide around that axis through to the high finish.
This vid is a masterpiece Shawn.
Thank you very much; so glad you are getting the gist! 😀👍
Shawn,
I am interested in this Center of Gravity, or the sternal notch. I was watching on Youtube one of your videos about spiral tilt and taking a divot. I am having problems taking a divot, but your videos helped me understand, I think and I am trying to verify with you.
If the sternal notch represents where your low point in the swing is, then aligning it just in front of the golf ball, this will allow you to drop the arms in the downswing (swinging freely) to hit the golf ball first, then the soil and allow you to take the divot consistently. Is that correct?
Then, when you want to hit a draw, you position the ball just back of center, your notch is now behind the ball and won’t this cause you to not take a divot? Help, I am confused!
Draw will still have sternal notch in front of ball; always want the low point of swing in front of ball on the target side for all golf balls off the grass; only with Driver would you have it on the way up!
Got it and thanks for getting back so quickly!
When you are keeping your centre of gravity between the arches of your feet should you be focusing on keeping the sternal notch (centre of swing ) in front of the ball so you get compression then divot after the ball ? Or mainly just focus on keeping your centre of gravity between the arches of your feet ?
You are using the ground to keep you centered so that you can stay on the task of cutting through the dandelion stem or compress through the door frame with ease and nice velocity.
All for the task!😀👍
Would “stop topping and take better divots “ be a good video to reference this subject or is there an updated version that would be better ?
I prefer the “predict contact” videos on premium; also see “downhill shots” and “uphill shots” as well as the “wood planing video”. Find a task that will do the job without thinking and over trying;
Shawn
What a great video. Thanks Shawn,
Thank you Foose!
