This drill was missing for me as. The edited comments are very helpful. This presentation is excellent.

Hi Shawn,
Two questions
– you say something like „dandyline“. I don‘t understand this phrase and I could not find it in the translator. What does it mean?
– Is there a detailed video about the intermediate point concept including fade and draw?
Thanks,
Knut

Good drill and have been wanting to see more on the turn. I have always noticed how much you turn on the backswing. I have been working on a larger turn this year and surprised at how much more power is generated. I’m at least one club longer. It also helps with over the top swings. 👍👍

When you make a solid turn and at the top of your backswing you are still balanced 50 /50 is there a weight transfer to the trail leg? If there is transfer when? it must not be there for very long until your weight needs to be transfered to the front side. You have a longer pause at the top so you have time to make the weight transfer back? My change at the top is not that long so sometimes I don’t seem to get transfered forward in time pushing my shots to the right? What am I missing?

Hi Shawn,

I’m a 62 and 300+ Lbs. I’ve been playing golf for about 3+ years. Until lately I’ve made a strong effort to improve my swing. Now I am trying to apply your Wisdom golf principles and find it very difficult to complete a full body turn. I am able to shift going back but I am unable to fully turn forward and clear my body. So when I try to complete a full body shift I end up with the chicken wing. for some reason I have a block completing clearing my body. What do you recommend that will help me clear my body going forward? I wish some of your golfers were overweight to see how the body is cleared.

Seems like a great video for recentering when you get out of balance because there is no need to sway or move laterally to do this drill. I have a question, what do you mean by the ‘arms in front of you’ phrase at about 3:30? Arms in front of what part of you? at 3:45 to 3:49 area you move the arms but they still seem still relatively in front of you especially the 2nd position but apparently it is not the right part of ‘in front’ of you so can you give me more a sense of what you mean?

During my practice swing, sometimes I’m not able to contact the ground so when I hit the ball, my strike is off. What could be the cause of this?

Will a sling blade work like the grass cutter tool?

What do you do for balls being hit off the toe?

Hey Shawn,
New to the site. I’ve always struggled with hooks and shallow backswing so the closed club face hands forward scare the crap out of me. Lol. I used to have a forward press and read that position can cause you to over rotate forearms on backswing causing this shallowing. Please talk me off the ledge. I’m willing to give it a try. Also working very hard on not being ball focused but “throwing” to target. I’ve even tried closing my eyes during whole swing and envisioning just the target. I’ve been surprised how descent I hit it. Does this seem like good idea to try?

nice drill, took 4-5 swings and really felt slightly more width in the backswing right away.

Hello Shawn, loved watching Wisdom 1.0 and the step by step introduction. Now wisdom 2.0 and 3.0 are sorted in the categories, so it’s difficult to find the further wisdom 2.0 and 3.0 content out of this and get a step by step introduction. Do you have a sorted list of this wisdom 2.0 and 3.0 videos for premium members to find and watch them in the right order?

Shawn, if the feeling of swinging a hammer allows for a better sense of gravity and proper release, then what is your thought on playing a higher swing weight?

The best driver day of my life was on vacation once using a buddies driver that had a ton of lead tape on it. Felt like an anvil, but I was hitting 30 yards longer than avg. When I got home, I tried to recreate the feel on my own club and could not control it well. Figured the higher swing weight and length were likely just coincidence and never tried it again. Your videos have me thinking it might be valid to try it again though.

Hello Shawn, I have bought a new driver after a fitting session. I have had no problems with a positive AoA in this session (230 meters total/mpH club speed). No I have problems to get a positive AoA even if I’m from inside to outside and the ball is in line of the heel of my left food (I am a righty) no more than 190 meters total. Whats wrong?

The battering ram concept saved my swing. My grass cutting got too cutting edge focused and it started catching up to the hands. The battering ram solved that and returned that effortless swing. The battering ram will get you down into position. The task will get the club to release. This helped so much I had to get back on premium to see if their was more. Thanks Again
