I’m getting an error message: “Player error. The player is having trouble. We’ll have it back up and running as soon as possible.” Anyone else get this?

Wow! LOVE that football drill which involves pulling the elbow towards the chest to initiate the backswing. The downswing sensation gave me the feel of letting the weight fall, and the club released so nicely. Thanks!

This is genius…That is all

Great videos Shawn, and my game is improving nicely since finding you.

I feel my major deficiency has always been flipping. For years, I have been trying to correct this by concentrating on Forward Shaft Lean and Bowed Lead Wrist videos, instruction, etc. and guess what? I still flip my lead hand. The trail hand rarely feels activated. (BTW, I play like your daughter, swing left, but right hand dominant). I started throwing clubs as you suggest and I believe I still flip on the release when I let go. I think I am also flipping while doing perpetual motion drills too? I watched this video and my question is…

Do I need to learn to roll the lead wrist under and trail wrist over, however, do it without “manipulation?” In other words, I may have to try and manipulate the wrists rather than just “feel the weight of the club?” Hopefully you understand my quandary? I just started these drills using weighted objects , but again seems like aimed activation. I willing to keep at it, love the game, but want to make sure I am on the right path.

Hi Shawn: how much is your hip bumped towards the target at address, is it all the way? From the top, do you give it a huge leg drive on the downswing? I did try copying what I think you are doing at the range today and I did pick up a little speed and distance; but not 280 carry yet, best was 265. Still working on the club-throw release. Thanks, T.

You’ve got my support Shawn, this is the evolution of the game and tuition and we’re seeing it happen. Glad that you’re wise enough (!) to to get in.

Q

Another great concept Shawn. Should the arms hang and almost feel like they are ‘dead weight’ and just there for the ride? Ive always struggled getting my arms higher but clearing the body should help this alot!

Shawn, does the same principle of swing apply to the driver and hybrids? I have benefitted from the concept of ‘being a witness to the club releasing me’ in my irons. It makes the swing automatic and I am able to engage my unconscious mind. Great video.

Hey Shawn, in order to increase the hip turn I tried the heel coming off the left foot on the back swing- although this has helped me hitting better shots when it comes to driver and fairway woods, but I am having trouble with the shorter irons and losing accuracy. Do you think this should be avoided for shorter irons ?

Thanks for sharing your wisdom! Does the face of the hammer represent the face of the club or the sole?

I have played for thirty years and tried every method just get to mediocre golf. I watched your videos thoroughly and said why not. First day on the range so so. I was getting the dandelion, I was going after three inches of grass after the dandelion. The second day on the range it clicked. The dandelion and grass was just on the way to the finish. Then it got even better I tried not swinging so hard to try make sure I swung out to the target and the ball started flying further then even my hardest swing. Light bulbs were going off all over the place. I had to hit another bucket so I could play with all the possibilities. The very next game I took ten strokes off. It would have been more but my distances are off now. If you ever come to Calgary I would take a lesson just to shake your hand.

A video on full shot sidehill lies would be great. It might be out there but I could not find it. I am guessing it would be very similar to the chipping setup.

The problem I have to trying to ‘quiet the mind’ I have the task in mind then all of a sudden I’m focused on hinge at the top of backswing or letting the handle lead. I think I’m also physically moving my arms in downswing instead of allowing gravity to move them. Should I only be thinking about throwing my club at the picture in my mind???

Shawn, how does your technique compare to the Stan Utley? Seems the big difference is that Stan promotes a risk cock. Seems your technique is more foolproof / simpler.
