Shawn, just adding to my previous comment on the video not expanding. It’s not just this one, it all the previous ones as well.

Hi,
Pardon me for this, but it’s nice to see somebody miss some shots and learning by errors. It seems so easy for you Shawn when you swing !

Shawn
Diagonal driver swing
Does takeaway go along target line (as if set up square )/??
Or along toe line which feels like bringing club too far inside ?
Trying to think about ball not being target ……..target is target
Thanks

Hi Shawn
On the chip shots is there still a head turn of 20 degrees after the initial setup? I seem to remember that this is the case from a previous video

Great video again… working through these PMD videos. It really improves contact and consistency. I noticed that Mu’s ball position is more forward in the stance for a 40-50 yard pitch. Is this for ball height? I would usually play this shot in the center or back of center. Thoughts?

Hey Shawn, At address for the chip shot what is the weight distribution of my feet. What percentage of weight do I want on my front foot to start my swing?

As usual the team did a great job . Shawn you have really done a great job with Mo. Please let him know that it is so nice to see a student work hard a get so much better. Way to go MO !!!!!!

Shawn could not enlarge video no symbol to enlarge

Really eye opening video for me to start working on the top of my finish and using that momentum to hitting through the grass behind the ball into the backswing. Will start working on it with the grass whip. Thanks Shawn

I watched through this video multiple times and worked on the concepts in the practice range. Wow…. it takes time, but just now feeling like things are kicking in. I have been playing golf for many years, using all kinds of techniques…. but as Shawn call them…. “paint-by-number” techniques. Shawn’s way…. just feels right. My thing now is to stay with this flow…. keep the flow to the target…. and don’t ever return to painting by numbers with swinging at the ball as hard as I can. Thanks for all you do here, Shawn. Loving this series.

Hello Shawn,

I was trying to find the right video to ask about my over swing (think John Daly across the plane). I can see my club sometimes out of the corner of my eye for not only driver but longer irons. My left wrist is definitely cupping. With the over swing, on the down swing I come in steep and over the top sometimes. Any videos to help with the overswing specifically?

Thanks,

Tom

Being left handed it’s fun watching mo and sav
The move ,kicking left knee to begin back swing
I assume that should thru all full shots up to Driver
Would love to know if you ever come to the Phila area
Hopefully starting to click

I had my son video my swing yesterday and I am definitely not fully completing my backswing which leads me to start manipulating from the top and my lead arm is not fully rotating or releasing me into the finish. I have sent you video and had Skype lessons and you recommended that I watch this video, get some backswing levitation, practice hitting drivers 175 yds, ping pong release along with watching best downswing weight shift and weight shift walking. I have been in a funk b/c I have been using my “40 bits of information “ and sabotaging my swing thinking about all of this. I have played better the past week just thinking about cutting grass and I had planned on coming to Montreal for inperson lessons before COVID-19. I feel that I understand all of this and I often throw clubs often what would you recommend I work on to improve this. I will send a video. Thank you for your reply.

Great video, but I’m confused on closing the face. Do I take my normal grip (I use the grip you teach) then close the face or close the face then take my normal grip?

I have been focusing on the levitation and rhythm at the top of the backswing, while making sure I have a full shoulder turn. My question here is with the trailing leg. Is it ok to allow it to straighten. Sav appears to be straight at the top. Also, is the lead leg/foot engaged in helping the backswing and getting to the top of the backswing?

I feel like I can use this drill to help improve my backswing footwork. I often find that when I pull the rope back most of my weight is on the back foot, then I have to go get the ground. I feel it should be more like it goes from the back foot to settling to the left and then increasing the pressure in the left(going to get the ground) and then throw to the target. I know not to think about this on the course, just stick with a task, but, it is obvious that I have not mastered this footwork.there was a video of Albert Bell where before he stepped into the pitch he levitated his hands and I could never understand how to do this ,but , it is because my weight is still on my back foot. I would appreciate your thoughts and a possible video update to best downswing weight shift as I think a lot of us struggle with this. Happy Fathers Day, I really appreciate all that you do and you really make a difference in many of our lives, especially in this pandemic
