Is your grip neutral on your chip shots? For example, not the usual strong grip

There was video with Mu where the analogy of tossing a sand bag was used. It’s what really got my chipping going.

Also, what you mentioned with your putting in the forum: I can really see this momentum in Sav’s putting stroke and I’ve been slowing integrating this into my putting.
It’s so easy and fun!!!!!

I have borrowed sledge hammers at supermarkets 😜 👍😊 To me it feels like heavy momentum is pulling club and collecting ball on the way to target.

My chipping is good thanks to this approach. I struggle in the sand where I tend to use a little force to spray sand. I am going to try this in sand with some almost golf balls.

Just finished watching lesson. You are the best teacher in golf, and I have been playing a long time. Thanks so much. Tell all your friends. Help them play so much better.

And in the green side bunker? Strain? Velocity?

Hi shawn ,
Question about the eyes . When you are cutting through the stem do my eyes remain on the stem until the body collects the head ? I seem to be a bit unsettled with my eyes

Hi Shawn,
After a long period of neglecting your advises and accumulating issues with my swing, which led to losing the enjoyment of playing golf, I’m back to the basic series, and I’m confident it will help me a lot.
I have one question: when you gripped the club at 8:30, it seems like you didn’t close it to 45 degrees—it appears to be straight instead. Is that an illusion, or is it because your body is already tilted?
Thanks a lot!

Shawn, please add a longer visual (longer alignment rod?)of your target, from the target out into the course, and an alignment rod showing alignment stance as it relates to downrange final ball position. It’s hard to see from our vantage point. Maybe a couple slow mow overhead views? And snapshots of your ball position for fade, draw, nuetral that we can compare on one visual. It’s hard to see when watching live shots, or place a ball representing all three at the same time? I am sure I have seen parts of this on several different videos, but to see it all at once, like a cheat sheet. Appreciate all your feedback. I understand this is no small production task. Thanks

For some reason when I try to watch I can no longer expand to full screen. It’s like the former controls are no longer available with the new formatting. Any way to add those back to add the full screen functionality?

Hi Shawn,
When I hit a forehand with a tennis racquet (right-handed), my right palm faces down during the backswing, and my elbow flares out. Applying this same motion to my golf backswing, I rotate my right palm to a closed position, which gives me a feeling of more leverage over the ball and better control toward the target. However, I’ve noticed my ball flight tends to draw to the right because the clubface is slightly closed at impact.
Do you have any thoughts on hand rotation during the backswing or any videos you’d recommend to help me improve this?
Thanks!

Hey Sensei! Followed your recommendation to cement weight shift and throwing the club to No Arms – it world a treat to remain focused on the task, using big muscles to heft the club and gravity to send it down the paddock! Makes life easy!

Hi Shawn – im 5foot7 and holding the grip from the end whilst keeping the club a palm width away from my belt makes the club shaft flatter than your position on address and the toe lifts a bit. What are your thoughts on holding down bit on the grip (Like Tommy Fleetwood) – is that a good adjustment to make?

Hi Shawn,
My backspin on drives is way up, around 2500-3000+. Any thoughts on what might be causing this? Great video series!
Thanks,

Hey Shawn
This is,as usual, AWESOME information and Golf Expertise.
I’ve been watching you for years and when you try to hit a fade with your Driver, 99% of the time,it does NOT fade.
In this Video you acknowledge that your Fade is a Straight Draw, and who doesn’t like Straight shots? Hahaha.
But, NEXT TIME YOU ARE TRYING TO TEACH FADE SHOTS with your Driver, can you try it by just opening the face just two degrees and let us see what happens.

So many of the Golf courses I play in Pennsylvania have trees on the right side of the fairway for a medium dogleg right shot.

I’m just curious if that very Modest opening of the c Driver club face will perform the way I think it should. Moreover then if you can show us the Ball position etc with your OPEN Club face, You might be able to help a lot of us reduce our scores on these Right to Left holes, because there are Trees on both sides, so that Straight Draw option has been causing me to be Out of Position on these moderate dog leg right holes.

Thanks and as usual Your Lessons you provide are truly beneficial !!
Thanks
