hey Shawn been working on superspeed for 6 weeks and my swing speed went from 94 to 98 but not hitting the ball further as it seems my smash factor has dropped to 1.3. I think the super speed has me whipping hands quickly at the ball. Any tips for getting that smash factor back up. Also any good tasks or drills for staying behind the hit on the driver. With the forward ball position is very tempting to rush forward and sending the tee spinning isn’t helping as the tee is also very forward and wind up trying to hit that also. Thanks!
Hi Frank!
2 things:
“Blur of Club and ARC BLUR UNSTOPPABLE MOMENTUM SERIES” to make the ball the precise intersection on the way to the target. In the driver one, you will see the importance of KNOWING where the low point is so you catch the tip of tee at the right place. Pay attention to the logo on the top of the driver head as it it closer to the heel of the club!
grip! The grip is the compression chamber for ball speed production! Polish the heck out of it with Grip, grip part 2 and important grip update videos.
I finally made the jump to a strong grip, feels close to Savs but I’m sure it’s a little weaker and committed to playing a full round with it last week, the conditions were tough, 20-30 mph winds with really strong gusts on a links course here in the PNW upper 40° Fahrenheit.
I was noticeably longer, 30 yards about with my driver, even pointed out with my playing partner who we are normally fairly even when it comes to distance. And I didn’t exactly hit it short with a weaker grip.
I shot my best round in years post back injury after getting back into the game, I feel like besides the distance I had less “short circuits” and was able to stay on my task of throwing the club the whole round, basically every shot. Needless to say the strong grip is here to stay, can’t wait to get back out with it.
Hiya!
Would you say that momentum is the feeling of the club face catching up and releasing? Still making tiny steps forward 🙂
THANK You Shawn – Capless Wonder!
that would be the momentum of the club head catching up to the hands and snapping by them around the second pendulum. Did you see the 2 pendulum swing series yet?
Hi Shawn,
I’ve notice that my arms are collapsing in the backswing and you mentioned a video called Loaded arms. Is that still available or is does it have a different name now? It did not pop up when doing a search.
Thank you for your great word pictures and visuals!
The lightbulbs are starting to come on. A solid arm and hand “unit” that does not collapse at the top verses a floppy/sloppy hands, wrist, and arm manipulation that is inconsistent. Wow.
Wasn’t getting my left knee behind the ball; wasn’t deliberate enough in my takeaway and wasn’t getting sufficient levitation in my back swing. Details matter. Hitting much better shots now. Watching videos help enormously
Shawn, at what distance does short game begin and long game end for you? Is it 60 yards or closer to 100?
Would you do a video on judging distances from 80-120 yard shots showing spin numbers?
Hey Paul! See this video: https://wisdomingolfpremium.com/20-40-60-yard-shots-to-full-swing-mastery/
Use the blue print to match to the wedges you need to deliver the distances you want. Chip swing bleeds into pitch and that bleeds into full swing! 😀👍
Hey Shawn, i am finding with my longer clubs (woods and hybrids) at times I keep my weight on my back foot when making contact. Any tips for getting the weight forward more on the longer clubs at impact?
Hi John!
no, nothing of the sort, we want to stay of the cold hard task and I want you to see “contact mile markers” and feel where you need to be to accomplish the task in that video. Let me know about any questions or Ah Ha moments!
Hi Shawn,
I set up some Skis of my own and noticed that my front hip was very tight in the follow through. Thus, restricting arc through. Do you have any suggestions on how to loosen up that hip or should I just start doing some stretches on my own?
To get to a full finish, you will need to break out of the skis once the release occurs and let the release pull you up into a stacked finish. See “stick your finish despite the ball” series.
It’s actually fine, there have been some updates with apple if you are watching on the phone, the screen can come in off set and you need to move it until you see the bottom right corner. This is what I had to do with my Ipad and no problem, found the full screen button and good to go.
Hi Shawn, I emailed you regarding the same thing Mark Sobel commented on. There is an improvement. Still no fullscreen on my computer. The video now takes up more of the screen. But still no fullscreen icon. A picture-in-picture icon is usually where the fullscreen icon is.
