Shawn, I have only been a member for a week. I have been taking lessons for the last 8 months on-line through top speed golf. I have made a lot of progress, but found your sight and I was drawn to how you teach the chip and build it into the full swing. I also really admire your teaching style, I coach golf and watching your lessons are going to make me much better at helping my players develop their games. I really enjoy how you interact with your students as well. Big fan!!
I live in central Ohio, so I am beating balls into a net with face tape. Can’t wait to see some ball flight with my improved grip and closed club face!
The double overlap has made a world of difference to my set-up, and putting stroke. The putter rests so flat and it is much easier for me to hover the blade pre-impact. I’m short so even a 35 inch putter, I have always felt as if I need to choke down. With the double overlap, the putter fits better and I don’t feel like it is in my gut. I feel way more comfortable and consistent. BOOYAH!!

GREAT LESSON! I just need some clarification on the set-up. Should the chip shot start from an impact (or modified impact) position, with front side slightly open? It appears on video that you are slightly open but not much. When I was chipping, I made better contact with my front side open, which also helped me get my head behind the ball.

I find that my drives are starting to gain some length. My irons lack distance and Ifeel this video provides the very thing I need to work on. Would it also be the same release for the woods but on the way?

When setting up to the ball do you try to match the lie of the club head to the slope so the heel is less likely to catch the turf?

Not a priority; the dynamic aspect of the shaft does affect the lie of the club and the grass length and ground do provide a buffer zone to allow the club to get through without too many issues. Priorities are balanced set up that will allow you to stay balanced through the shot as you deliver into the direction you want to start the ball with ease. Shawn

Should the perpetual motion pratice drill be performed in a proper setup position? Just as for real you were setting up to drive the ball to the target. Thanks

Hi Shawn. I have been loving W.I.G. for a couple of seasons now. My ballstriking, especially with irons is the best of my life. I went from hitting 5 irons 170 to 195+! I can really relate to the cutting grass and dandelion stem task imagery.
Where I still seem to be lagging behind is with my driver. My swing speed is maxing out around 95 and I’m “only” hitting it around 230 to 240. I’m 52, almost 6′ and pretty strong and given the distance I’m hitting my irons (7 iron 165) I feel like I should be hitting my driver further.
I’ve been trying the “tip of the tee”, and ball on a string task imagery but haven’t gotten more speed. Am I being too careful or something? Thanks for any advice and for all the great work you do!

Hi Shawn — Long time follower of your youtube channel and new Eagle member. Love your stuff! I’d like to book a 1-on-1 either in Quebec or your march 3-5 Palm Springs visit. What is the best way to go about booking a lesson?

IM heading to “pump up the swing” video. IM trying to figure out why my practice exercises don’t translate into the real “McCoy” when the money is on the line!

Thanks, Duffer Dave

Wow, I am just now starting to watch these after being a member for a while. I remember seeing the tilt and head turn previously and I would always strike the ball well when I payed attention to it, but watching these and really focusing on the presetting the head turn has me hitting the ball more consistent than I ever have. It’s resonating all the way up through the driver which I have a nasty habit of coming forward on and completely destroying my driver swing. Really just lets me feel the rotation of the body through the swing.

Shawn,

J’aime beaucoup ta série ”Video Flow”. Je suis en Guadeloupe dans le moment, je vis de très bons swings au Club International St-François, grâce à ces flow series. J’ai à utiliser DAVANTAGE les jambes comme moteur pour propulser mon élan. C’est mon prochain objectif.

Ah oui Shawn, j’aimerais te donner à mon tour un cadeau reçu il y a environ 3-4 ans en Floride. Un instructeur de putting avait utilisé un concept qui m’est toujours resté et qui est en harmonie avec ta série.

Le concept est ”QUIET EYES” et effectivement lorsque nos yeux sont calmes, nous sommes dans une zone qui est créatrice, en attente, sans inquiétude des résultats. Prêt à assumer toutes nos décisions et actions, sans peur et sans orgueil…

Je crois que j’ai toujours excellé dans mes sports lorsque j’avais mes ”QUIET EYES”.

À BON ENTENDEUR…

309!! Congrats. Love the slo mo, keep it coming.
Your leg action was never more clear than in this video. I can’t believe you’re getting such a big hip turn but I am working on it!

Hi Shawn. Really enjoy the split screen slo mo with commentary. Recently heeling the driver but felt I was allowing the kinetic chain to flow to the target ‘ out there’. Tried to stand further away…closer..no joy ( not surprised). the fix was #1.. see the blurr for distance to ball….#2 ..use the ground a la stone skipping letting the elbow flow in the football throw motion. Result was almost dead center contact and effortless distance. Waiting for the new GC setup and foresight to fix connection issues to verify the results. WIG…I have to tell you…you make golf more natural and way more fun. Thanks. 👍👍

Hey Shawn, check out 830-843 and butt relationship to the bench. R frame Practice swing shows a more marked ‘squat’ on the bench vs the L frame hitting the ball where the lower body squats very little. What is the natural process difference? Just a tighter kinetic chain? Thanks.

How do you choose the right size grip? Is this just personal preference?
