Absolutely great video. I love the idea of sending the momentum toward your intended line while working the ball left or right with the incorporated idea of the tree line.
The goldilocks approach to the set up has added much desired demensions to my ballstricking.
Shawn, just having a little reflection on why certain draws have a mind of their own, is it normally the result of not having a deep enough feeling in the release because of the lack of recruiting the complete body from the ground up or the feeling of becoming too static (upright) behind the ball??? Tough to put into words I guess.
#1 priority: can you confirm that your focus was on the feel of the effortless whip releasing in the direction you wanted to start the ball AND DID YOU STAY WITH IT?? Did you feel that snap release way past the ball with top speed way past the ball towards the direction you wanted to start it??
If no, then don’t waste any time wondering what went wrong when all you did was ABANDON YOUR POST. 😝
Hey Paul! Will be in Atlanta in April;
And no, for the mid irons and long irons, higher means more carry a lot of the time; as long as you whipped through it with ease and velocity!
About to plug Wisdom In Golf on my Facebook page! Don’t laugh but this year alone I’ve tried Stack n tilt, Rotary Swing, The A swing and Swing machine golf (Big Time Tinkerer)with marginal results. Hooked up with Shawn’s site and “WHOA!!!”…. 62 yrs old and always had decent swing speed( Driver 118mph) but could never find consistency till Now ! I even traded my Titleist AP2 ‘s for PINGS! Best clubs ever! Keep up the great teachings my main man!!!
I always focused on the ball. I would glance at the target,get aligned,then go over all these positions I was supposed to be in. Yep, Paralysis by Analysis! Some days were good but most were just frustrating. Now I pick out a target and burn it into my subconcious, heave the club in the backswing, get the ground on the downswing, then throw that sucker at the target! I have always struck the ball on the toe of the club with my irons! Not now baby! FLUSH CITY! I intend to be an EAGLE member until this body gives out! Kudos Brother. My golf buddy just joined Premium too! Its super cold in Indiana right now but I hooked up a skytrak to my heated barn and watch your videos Every Evening so I can be ready for Spring!
Shawn, This video is so important ! It not only shows the lead hand motion , it shows when & where it occurs post impact along with the way the whole left arm moves on the follow through and most importantly how the body then is pulled through up onto my left foot. At the 10:30 section in the video is where the light bulb lite up. Wow! Is this the sequence you prescribe?
Awesome Video!

Hey Shawn, I still can’t seem to get any heighth on my 19 deg hybrid or 15 deg 3 wood,. Really comes off face hot but not far from a worm burner? Feel like I’m throwing club at target?
I had bettert results right out of the gate with the pitch. I sculled many chips at the range. Can I think “squeeze ball through door frame” for chips, like I do in pitches and the full swing? p.s..—Since joining the Premium Channel, I am going to play on an 18-hole All Par 3 course tommorow. My FAVORITE video on the BASICS is the Battering Ram, leading with eblow. You also explained the release better than anyone with the hammer and other heavy objects!
The get in address position and then put your arms out and connect the hands, best drill. This is the only place I have seen it. (at 34:38) Totally get the right sensations.
If you did a video on this drill, I would be so excited.
Totally the best way for me to teach my daughter the turn and not look like the ugly arm monster like her dad.
SHAWN— I PLAYED TODAY, an ALL PAR 3 COURSE, AND HIT SOME GREENS with zero effort.
I NEED HELP IN THIS—
1. I need your best video on using the atomical snuff boxes and how to get the top of the backswing.
2. When I try to lead with my elbow, it tends towards manipulation and loss of distance. Help.
3. I need to learn about the “second pendulum” [the release], namely, when does this release begin with the weight of the club head that will bring me to the finish? I missed some greens to the right because the club was open at impact. Do you have a slo-mo on the second pendulum? Overall, happy, Paul B.
Hey Paul!
See “arm motion fine tuning” and “release fine tuning” on premium to address loading and unloading
Then see “through the ball” and “through the ball part 2” and finally “lead hand release” and “trail hand release”
Have a blast!!
Shawn
Sean, I have read Dr. Wulf’s book and taken lessons from you in Dallas and it has helped me immensely. I went to my local golftec to observe my progress on video(while placing a target on the net) and see that I get lazy w/ the turn of my hips both in the backswing and especially in my forward swing which leads to loss of posture and hand manipulation. I know from my time w/ you, studying your videos and her book I am not supposed to think about my hips, but, when I see it on video despite my best efforts to focus externally it is frustrating. I would appreciate your thoughts
Ok, good; this is where drills such as the “feet together drill” come in very handy; also, the videos on the kinetic chain series; have a look at both in the premium channel and then get the feel for the kinetic chain when THROWING SOME CLUBS. Throwing the club drill will really bring it alive!
You guys have some nice wide open spaces in Texas don’t you? 😝😀😎
This sand spraying has changed my hole bunker play. Before i didin’t like bunkers. Now it’s much more fun. Even if i miss i normally know what went wrong. Even bunker play practice is much more fun now! 👍☺
Check out these titles on premium:
“Grip and arm motion” and “arm motion fine tuning”
The student lesson with Venky is all about that too!! Lots to sink your teeth into!
