This I see sometimes! If you are NOT STRUGGLING with the 5 wood, then you have the wrong Hybrid!! Go try other ones at your local shop and get “tour preferred hybrids that don’t have any “anti slice technology!”

Yes, you will see this in the “how to start the swing” video in the middle of the list of videos on premium; enjoy! 👍

When staying so nice and centred in the backswing; there is NO NEED TO SHIFT FORWARD!! YOU SIMPLY DOWNSHIFT!! 💪🤛🤛🏾👍😀🔥💥
You are already above the lead side and when you are still in “I am going to let the UNSTOPPABLE MOMENTUM release me in that direction INEVITABLY, the downshift happens like magic.
You are getting there, I can feel it in your words! 😀👍

Thanks, Shawn. Can you expound a bit more on the concept of “downshift” in your response? Do you mean the action of going down to grab the ground at the point of levitation? Just want to make sure I get this right.

Haha, yes, you are still getting your head around some concepts; very important question! Please see “pumping up the swing” and “feet together back to feet apart” which was a huge aha Moment!

And a sweet mantra it is! I tell you Marc, when demonstrating the swing to my students now, it is such an awesome meditation out loud! I am so locked into my task now and the shots keep amazing me to this day; NEVER GETS OLD. We are so lucky to experience the world around us through golf; truly a blessing!!

And truly we could let Sav see the old videos and even the old training manual that came with Skully’s first appearances – Truly HISTORIC!!!

😀👍❤️

Sean,

I’ve heard you all talking about the TWO TEE DRILL!! Where would I find it or could you please show us how to do it??

thanks,

John

Hey John!
It all started way back on youtube with the “fishing and golf shawn clement” and then we did “early extension shawn clement”. My bad, because I know it is in a couple videos here on premium, like “walk cut strike” and “grass whip training” but I don’t have a dedicated video title to it. Enjoy those videos though! 😀👍

Sorry I missed this one! You guys can email me directly to let me know about a comment that you posted at [email protected]
Answer: The key is to feel that you can easily whip the club with a nice dose of momentum; the hinge will deepen on the downswing when headed to the target and will shorten when trying to hit the ball; see the release videos; especially the “lead hand release backswing assurances” and the “important release update” we also have the first 3 videos in the “off season training series 2020-21” which deal with the fine art of hinge and release!

Hey John!
Yes, start with the chipping and see where the club wants to bottom out and place the ball back of that; let the weight of both arms swing through the stem of the dandelion and feel what that contact is like; there should be no topping there if you cut through the grass right?
Then pitch then back to irons; and feel what is happening between those shots that is different than with the regular full swing and get back to me.

It has been working much better. However I would suddenly revert to my old swing. I am not certain if it was from my stroke ( 10 Years ago ) or my previous 40+ years of bad swings. I started playing with my grip presser and improver a lot. I have a grip strength of 4/10 with my left hand and a 1 with my right – it stopped me from blading the ball and had a MUCH better release. I can feel my right hand instinctively firm up my grip. Best contact I have had – maybe ever. THANKS !!

Hi Scott! What is the main task that you are using?
Shawn

Great question. I guess with all the thoughts going on I don’t have one.

Boom!! There it is!
Please go to “grass whip training” video and dig into that one; pardon the pun! 😝
When you are clear on how you are delivering the task through the stem of the dandelion towards the target, and you stay with it for the duration of the swing, you will get better very fast. And if your full time job was to whip through grass with a nice bladed instrument for 8 hours a day, then you would NEVER RUSH and SWING HARSHLY and you would use the weight of the instrument to do your work!
Also See “top 3 tasks” and “task trumps everything” videos as well as “how to use the weight in your swing-axe drill with Savy”

Hey dbgiles! Welcome to the club!
This is a very common issue when you first start doing the PMD; it means you are still in control of the movements instead of letting gravity place you. See “lead hand release” and “trail hand release” and “release fine tuning” to really start letting the weight of the club release your anatomy. Then see a very key video called “grass whip training” which put it all together in a task for you. Enjoy!

Great stuff! Feels good! 😀👍

Hey John!
4 things to confirm in your prediction process before you swing!
See “predict contact” and “the goldie locks series”
If you are standing over the ball, and you feel something is not quite right, you can’t swing through the ball anymore, you are forced to swing AT THE BALL, and shanks come very easily when you do this!
Shawn

👍😀

You must chip to where you want to LAND THE BALL. Do not think about the pin, ever.
See the chipping And short game strategy videos for that;

Sounds like a winner to me! 😀👍
