Shawn, I am a 76 year old golfer and new to your premium channel. I have been watching your senior series of instructional videos (as well as others) and paid special attention to your focus on throwing clubs down range with -0- manipulation. I went out to the back yard today and was able to successfully toss clubs on a medium trajectory and toward my target. I just returned from the range and wow I am impressed with the results. Crisp ball contact with compression and when I swing to the right of an intermediate target it gets me spot on the flag. Thank you. I can’t wait to get out on the course.

Shawn, on one of your videos (which I can’t remember the specific one) you made some suggestions about the best type of grind to have on the sand wedge and on best degrees of bounce for different sand conditions and for sand wedge usage off the fairway. Could you summarize your suggestions about best wedge bounce degrees and type of grind for specific types of sand conditions and for usage off the fairway. Thanks

Hi Shawn
Looks like a great series of drills – where can one get these table top spinners – not somehing I have come across in the UK

how do i access pro shop …looking to purchase swing caddy thx

Hi Shawn. I was able to go from averaging 85mph with a 7i to 95mph even after a long layoff as long as I can keep my elbow free and in front of my body. I love the speed gains, however, I’m still struggling with releasing the club too early. It seems that no matter how far right of my intermediate point that I swing, trackman still shows my club face as closed and obviously way closed relative to the path. I tried searching for “early release” to no avail. What video would you recommend?

Hey Shawn I need some help I’m hitting fat!!!

Hi Shawn,Can we do this with swing caddy?

Hi Shawn. I told my golf coach that my grip was a problem but he always said it looked fine. However at impact the force of the club hitting the ball causes the club fly around in my hand or my trail hand index and thumb would fall right off the club. The place where I practice has launch monitors and impact cameras and I can see the club face fly violently open or closed at impact. He told me light pressure but you recommend more pressure. I’ve noticed that I start to get pain and muscle fatigue in my lead and trail hand after a few perpetual motion swings with more grip pressure. But I don’t have the issue with the grip moving in my hand anymore. I don’t feel this fatigue when I’m playing or at the range. Just when I’m doing perpetual motion with no break between swings.

On a separate note, the video about the supporting the club with the index solved a lot of problems for me. I’d get really painful calluses on my trail hand thumb before

It’s crazy. What you teach is almost the exact opposite of what my coach has been teaching me for the past 2 years. However, with your approach I’m swinging the club so much faster and not getting injured like I was trying to swing the way my coach wanted. But I spent about $10K on lessons and have 10 or so left and I don’t want to go back!
I still really struggle with getting that trail elbow into position without my swing getting armsy. I can do the Sergio drill and football drill. But when I get two hands on the club, you’d think I never tried the drills at all. It all goes to crap

Nice chipping review Shawn. On a Sim yesterday and must admit got a bit lost re task and arm-club unit connection. Back on track now. Thanks.

Hey Shawn, what do I do about my club catching grass in the takeaway when dealing with rough. A steeper takeaway ?

Doing the hammer drill with the left/lead hand helps me be feel and be more aware of the performance of the left side of the body and the left arm in the swing. The feeling of the swinging the weight of the arm/hammer unit with my left hand really turbocharges my release and promotes rotating into a full follow thru position with my chest facing the target and up onto the toes of my right foot. First tested it yesterday at the range and my clubhead speed and distance has really increased with more snap in my release and completing my swing follow thru. Pleasant surprise for a senior golfer like myself.

My legs are like statues after so many years of being told to restrict my lower body. Where should we feel the pressure in our feet? I end up getting stuck on my right side and end up pushing off, which I heard you say in another video that your student had the same pushing off problem (though I can’t remember the video).

Very good, can’t wait until the snow goes to try it out… Also wanted to let you know that for some reason over the last several weeks I haven’t been getting your notices sent to my e-mail box of the next training video, I have to come to the website and check out the latest list to see what’s new if any. Thanks again Hope this can be fixed..

I’ve always kind of wondered what to do with my trailing hand thumb. In this video, it’s kind off of to the (in)side. Any problem with that trailing thumb to be on top? Kind of similar to the lead hand thumb? Also, I liked your description of keeping the trail index finger supporting the club at the top and end of the swing. I don’t think I have been doing this and it seems to help during my brief swing practice so far.
