Since I joined on with you, I have finally learned what it feels like to let the momentum of the club do the work! I still need to be extremely diligent on that aspect of things as it was NOT what I did prior. However, it works when I allow it! I have been using the technique in this video on chips also, but I find myself struggling on the shorter pitches/chips with longer rough because of the wider swing. In my old life I would have picked the club up quicker and let it come down steeper to get through the rough better. Any suggestions on ways to deal with longer rough? Also, I cannot find a place to get the practice manuals. Can you describe where to find them?

I’m just watching this for the 1st time and it’s such a great comprehensive video series Shawn! Never hurts to revisit the basics. Have to keep the foundation of your house in tact before you worry about adding rooms!

Shawn, where have you been all my life? I recently subscribed and worked through the Wisdom 2.0 series. As a marker to gauge future progress, I then hit 10 shots with my 8 hybrid, not a great deal further (not quite out of the middle) but carry within 8 yards of each other. You really have something here and I’m really looking forward to going further down the rabbit hole!

Shawn, cutting the bamboo with both hands on the club is a great nugget, it helped so much with the hands working together’

Where are the ebooks Savannah spoke of?

Weight 60/40 favouring the front foot for the entire swing? You mentioned staying wide and cutting grass, do you not have a task for the motion like cutting carrot peels or the dandelion stem?

Short game gold!!!
Thank you for this!!

Hey Shawn ,
I’m still fighting a bit of a hook . I get to the ball and naturally just close the face before taking it back . It creates a low flight too . Any tips to get me hitting it higher and not fighting the left so much ? Thanks again man!!

Quick question: When i’m doing feet together — should i feel the weight on the inside of my right and left foot? Maybe that’s too extreme? thank you Shawn!

Hey Shawn! So I recently have been getting left wrist pain at the base of my thumb (with a right handed swing). I think I have watched your videos enough to have a pretty solid grip, but I think I’m bowing my left wrist a bunch and actually putting too much pressure on that thumb at the top of my backswing. Just looking for some direction in what might be breaking down. Thanks!

shawn , I ve got my driver down to fade now instead the slice of pizza!!! thx .
but wondering about my finish which is about chest hi. do u think I am hitting at the ball ; releasing to soon??
. thx mark

shawn: at 72yrs old between the training u serve up ,i.e. one leg drill ,diagonal stance hammer into doorframe, strong grip swing caddie and recently rypstick training
.my ball speed was 130 ,swing speed 90. to ball speed 133.6 and swing speed 92.8. also hitting 50 % of my fairways. so th all this came from ur teaching and the rypstick speed training for about three weeks so far.
thx , shawn

Hi Shawn. I really enjoy these videos. I haven’t been on much lately, to prevent overloading myself while going through this journey. In the few months I’ve been subscribing, I feel like I’ve made some great strides thanks to these videos and your guidance towards the correct videos to help with my struggles. Right now, I have two struggles. One is that I need to readjust my distances with my wedges. Everything in the bag is going farther and with the use of Arccos, I have a pretty good sense on most of my clubs, but due to the varying distances I use my wedges, the app isn’t very helpful (good problem to have and can be figured out with some range time, I just wanted to thank you for your teams good work). The other issue is dispersion on shots 70-120yards when I need to hold back some swing speed. This distance is my biggest problem in strokes gained. My three misses are left, right, and over shooting the green. The full shots with everything above the wedges aren’t perfect but I have improved dramatically and feel confident that it should continue to trend that way. I just don’t like taking full shots with wedges. Thoughts?
To answer your question in the video; Yes. I have learned how much is gained with a “light layup” swing. Nothing like aiming a 7w at a green from 220 (stock distance) only to have it fly over the green by 25 yards. Did I mention that I want to thank you? 😊

New member – one word – “Wow” – The premium videos are very clear and extremely effective. Working my.way slowly through the content.

Such a good lesson. I really appreciate the fact that you always point me in the right direction. I confess that I haven’t taken this to the range yet, but I have been trying this out on the course with great success from 50-100 yards. One thing I noticed when doing this, was the stopping power on the green. WOW!
