Speechless! Your clarity is as always brilliant – it just gets better and better!
Given Covid (we are still locked down in the Colonies) could I suggest that you stick with the WIG plan, TripIt, Feel the weight and allow the ball to get in the way of the club – BOOM!
If you are new – this plan works – we get to use our bodies and brain to play golf – no matter how old we are!

I have never seen a series like this one – the Favourites are fantastic – and – this is real time tuition – “warts and all” stuff – so real, so good! Mu – bad news, soon you will be limited to a 6 iron!!! 320 yards is a good benchmark for a 6!!

Hi Shawn, my fellow players tell me that my putting stroke is not straight and I pull my putting stroke from outside to inside. I guess I just have to let my putter make the arc based on gravity, and stop trying to control the direction. Is that the right mental model?

Shawn you did this to me a long time ago at RHGC. I thought WHAT THE! Well I found that the crazy closed setup was accepted by my brain and eyes when I was able to comprehend and use the feeling of the kinetic chain and the weight of the ACU creating the DYNAMIC result at the dandelion stem. Crazy closed static= partial closed dynamic= nice draw. Squarish static at address = dynamic fade still with some compression.
Watching Pros on tv they all seem square at setup. If I do, I screw up the dynamic strike and lose the intermediate point because my problems are right under my nose= pull hook to prevent slice or swipe across the ball dynamic open face=big slice.
Great stuff.. Thanks.

Hi Shawn …really great stuff ! Regarding longer clubs (3 wood-Long Hybrids) would I still Shut the Face same as irons ?

Hi Shawn. I think this is a great video as it really helps one get the feel of how the chain works. My question is: if the speed of the hips unwind faster when we come out of the squat as the club is thrown, will this give us faster swing speed?

Shawn, this is by far the best explanation on how to swing a golf club. I used this video and the axe drill, plus swinging a sledge hammer (they definitely help emphasize the weight of the arm-club unit) and the results have been excellent.! I have added about a club and a half distance to my iron and wood shots. I’ve gone from only hitting fade/small slice to being able to work a draw and a fade on command. My 6 iron is now my 180y club where it used to be my 160y club before watching your videos. Keep up the great content!

Hey Shawn , as We swing the motion is still battering ram ?

Hi Shawn, When the video shifted to Mu and he was hitting the 8 iron flop shot, you asked if it felt he was hitting the in the center or on the toe. He said center.
For flop shots in general, should we cut the stem and feel the ball off the toe?

Hi Shawn. I hope there’s a bit of gold in this video but I’m not quite clear on something….at about 17 minutes or so you were talking about a sawing motion with an ‘in to out’ path I think. Can you elaborate? It is confusing to me what you mean.

I understand it better for an out to in swing with the face open as the heel comes in first and saws across the ball. I wasn’t 100% clear what you were doing during this part of the video. Were you trying to show the toe approaching first with the in to out? Whatever it was it worked brilliantly I just want to make sure I get the right picture in my mind.

Love this drill Shawn! I have always come over the top and this actually explains how to get after it from the inside and on the arc. I can actually get my right shoulder to come under. Also, it really has a good feel coupled with the “diagonal stance”. You have the best instructional information on the interwebs!

Shawn:
This works, I had been struggling with consistency hitting my 2 hybrid closed the face more today and hit a draw 220 yds to reach a par 5 in 2 which is something I never do. Struggled with chipping last rd re-watched the chipping video got up and down 4 times today on my way to the best rd I have shot in several years 44/36 80.

Hi Shawn,

Good video.

I’m struggling with how closed the face is. If I close it as much as your suggesting I’ll pull it to the left. The divot is also angling left. Doe this mean that I need to change my swing path. In my mind this is a out to in path. I’ve also tried to aim to the right (but feels very unnatural as I’m aiming a long way left… appreciate your thoughts.

Cheers
Bruce

Please explain swing differences (If any) between irons and hybrids. I have a complete set of hybrids which I love but don’t seem to get the distance I want.

Back working on grip. I get the need for firm pressure with the lead hand. What about the trail hand pressure, I’m wondering if there should be less pressure on the trail hand so you don’t throw the club over the top.
Really like being about to find the fundamentals when I need them.
