I am getting an error (403) when I try to download the music

Hi Shawn. I keep splitting the skin on my left thumb, just above the tip crease. What am I doing wrong? I’m guessing this should not happen.

I’m right handed.

“18 degree launch is solid for a 9 iron”, wait! what???
What kind of stupidly strong lofts those clubs have?

Loving this thought of a short quick shortstop throw for my wedges. It makes it so easy to deliver the club through the ball to the target. Thanks Shawn

Hi Shawn, I’ve heard you mention many times “do you feel at the top like you have access to the direction you want to start the ball…”…my question is, from “where” as in where on the body, am I feeling? Am I trying to determine if my lead arm can swing in the direction I want to start (as you did with the javeline?) Am I feeling it from my waiste? My trail hand?

Any insight would be helpful…thanks as always for everything! Every time I try something else, I always end up back with WIG because you just got it! and It’s clear you put in sooo much effort to help us understand! you are appreciated!

Great lesson right here

Every once in a while, these lessons send a chill down my spine – this was definitely one! Thank you guys!

To Munashe: dude, I am so impressed with where your golf swing is, in such a short amount of time – FANTASTIC job! You have the fortune of missing out on years of mentally and physically painful golf, like the rest of us who didn’t find Mr. Clemens earlier!

The best part of this video is the real discussion of what each of you experience in performing the drills. I have experienced the club rolling in my hands on the walking drill along with swinging at the ball. With these results it was easy just to stop the drill. Now, I understand my experience is normal and what feedback is being provided.
My volleyball arrived a couple a days ago and I am eager to get to a space where I can work with it. I anticipate that it will help me get through the shot. The impact reinforces swinging at the ball. The drill with the board should help with staying with the shot however I am not sure how it will work on grass. I do not have access to an indoor facility but my club does have all grass practice area.

Great video, my only complaint is when you do the slow motion and the music cuts in, it blasts you right out. It is much louder than the voice volume that you have on your mike’s. It would be just fine if the music was turned down half of what it is.

Shawn, at 12:55 and other examples throughout the video you show the complete release with full supination of the left hand at the horizontal left direction to the target with the club face almost fully turned over instead of having the toe upright in most other instruction. Will this work without causing the ball to pull or even hook? Can you explain. If I attempt to do this I generally get hooks. How does this work?

Loving these in-depth discussions!

i notice your head moves up on back swing and you go back down on down swing.
is that okay? i notice the pros head only goes down.

For me, the walking drill also encourages the coveted natural pause at the top. The brain is waiting for that lead foot to plant in the right spot before it releases everything into the downswing. I feel like the ACU is hovering forever. Terrific drill when you get ‘quick’ at the top. Now that I think about it, this should always be a part of warm up before playing. Take that sweet sensation out on the course.

Hi Shawn,
thanks for this content.
is the doorframe task can be used for a fade?

Hi Shawn,

I’m a 6 and a physician and having a dramatic improvement following your task/biomechanic philosophy.

I have a consistent error of getting steep through transition and then saving through impact. Exhausting way to to play!

I have recently adopted tucking the right elbow on the takeaway and creating a feeling of a “closed kinetic movement” with my arms. It feels like I can fire with my body and capture centrifugal force because my arms are just levers unloading the energy. Plus, I am confident getting back to ball because it feels like a closed kinetic movement with clubhead geared to return to starting position.

Finally the question: is there a downside to having right elbow “too tucked” or elbows too close together? Otherwise, I’m just gonna keep exploring this motion since it makes swing effortless.
