Shawn,

In the audio clip of this video your description of Larry is virtually identical to my experience. The Orange Peel gave me the feeling of what is like to explode through to the other side with little effort. In watching this video you tell Larry to keep the yellow. What did you mean? Hopefully, I can incorporate this into my workouts. I did watch the tilt, turn and swing video. The position of your feet are the same as on the Orange Peel. If I can get in a bunker with a block of wood with specific spot as a target good things could possibly happen.

Hi Shawn, I just played the best 9 holes of my short golfing career this past Friday. I made solid contact with every iron shot that I had! I noticed that after I chose my intermediate point, I focused my eyes more in between the ball and the IP, instead of the blade of grass directly in front of the ball. This seemed to allow me to ensure that my club hit the ball first, and traveled over the IP. Is there any reason why you may or may not recommend this? I don’t want to form any bad habits and would like to change this if it’s not what you’d recommend. Thanks for your great teaching! I really enjoy every video that I watch.

Shawn,

This reminds me of my time at the clinic and is extremely helpful. Like the comment below I can relate better to this instruction as opposed to trying to duplicate what I see on the other video. This grass practice provides the immediate feedback I need. The divet tells me exactly what I did so when you are not there I can still learn quickly. Currently, I am doing tons of drills only to find that I am doing them correctly and having to try an undo the bad habits. I am lucky to have a huge grass facility. If I can combine the training from this session and the session with Larry my swing will finally evolve.

Shawn

Thank you. Thank you. Reviewed this video last night. Shot 73 today. Three better than my age. What a thrill at age of 76. You are a great teacher, without a doubt.

excellent video, your chipping technique is the best I’ve used in the 65 years I have played this game. But, most of the heavy rough chips and pitches are from uphill lies. Please do a video on uphill shots. Thank you

Love the respect and joy flowing through all of you, it’s so good to watch ❤️

Great vid too, lots of attention to detail. It really does help to watch others learn.

great presentation, really illustrates the conditions and the solutions. On up hill lies play same shots letting momentum going up the slope off your front foot?

Great video. I find is easy to “think” about swinging towards the target, but find it overwhelmingly difficult not to “hit” the ball. And keep defaulting to the ball.

That’s a great lesson! It really woke me up on weak parts of my setup on certain chips. And I’m a good chipper!!
Thanks!

Hi,

New to this instruction. I find it very informative but I am hearing things In videos that I have not learned yet like using the weight of the club. I have tried finding the order of videos but I can seem to find a good order. I understand everything your saying I have actually felt it in my swing when it is good but I have a very hard time giving up control and I actually try to make the club weightless which I think is the opposite of using the weight where is the best video of how to feel the weight of the club so I can feel the heave levetation and drop. My swing has been reallyh out to in as of late.

Thanks,

Daniel

That open face chip shot is something I need to add to my arsenal. Nice, something new for my next short game practice session 🙂

Thanks Shawn, good presentation, just need to pre- calibrate your go-Pro. ;>) Do “you” ever vary the position of the bottom of your arc to influence the roll out on the down hill chips when you can’t really use the fringe??

So no leg action from that distance?

Just a few comments. I have been following you for more than 10 years and been to 3 of your So Cal instructions. What I have learned ( in addition to a ton of correct golf ) is that you are a GREAT teacher, a WONDERFUL MENTOR, most importantly a WONDERFUL FATHER !! Keep up the good work and hope to see you in So Cal soon . God bless you, your family and every one that you touch !!

This left foot forward idea is huge. Because I find that , on a regular stance, when you hit the ball on the way up the club face also starts facing left and slightly away from the ball. than I have to correct by reaching out further and opening my club face. This sometimes resulting In a slice. Does that make sense to you?
