Shawn- one of your old videos talked about the left vs right hand action through the swing…it’s more of a pulling through with the left than a push with the right. I noticed that it’s rarely discussed in your videos, but I was hoping you could address it in New ones. I still struggle with a dominant right hand and push the club. My best rounds (low 70’s) is when pull through more with left hand. Hoping you can come up with more drills or thoughts on this in your videos. Thanks again

Hi Shawn. I saw your video on youtube about lifting the right heal after hitting the ball. Could lifting it before, be causing me to shank?

Also is practicing with a weighted club a good idea?

Thanks. Ralph G.

Shawn, earlier you asked for suggestions on videos. How about having one on creating more speed with the club? It could be about the proper way to do it with some examples and also some examples on the incorrect way to do it.

Thanks. What about the weighted club idea?

Shawn,
I have a comment and a question please.

My comment is regarding the lighting on videos done in the covered range in Montreal…they are too dark to see all we need to see…like your face! 😉

My question comes from comments yesterday on the Senior US Open broadcast. Zinger and Faxson made a point of showing the “low” hands of the leaders and how that could be why they drove the ball so we’ll compared to amateurs who have a less acute angle between the shaft and forearms at address. It seems like the important thing is the relationship between the shaft and forearms at impact. Thoughts?

Thanks for all you do!

Thank you for sharing!

Shawn I’m still not sure about driver ?
1 in relationship to body (away ) got it
2 in relation to the arc of path slightly in front i don’t get this one ???? because the ball is in front i’m not clear so I hit hooks and draws when I should be hitting Fades and cuts. I do live in Colorado. altitude thing. I seem to hit draws when trying to hit draws.
I have watched all your videos on driver, draws and fades a couple times. I even draw the arc using flour to mark the grass.I use the range as you recommended left side I try and hit fades, right side I try and hit draws

Shawn do you find trail hand dominant players release the strong grip easier (quicker) or later in the swing??

Good stuff

At the top of the back swing, should I allow the arms to fall or do I allow the body to swing the arms through without manipulation, as in the Battering Ram drill?

Hey Shawn around 1:40 mark you describe how the index fingers of each hand apply pressure to the grip in opposing directions. Have I understood you correctly? Could you kindly expand upon this in more detail

Also, you talk about the how pads of the trail hand fingers wrap around the grip. Is this true for the lead hand as well?

TIA
Gordon

Great tip… starting to have the “lights come on” Wondering if you could go into more detail into the “release the club high concept related to this arm motion review and insight. Seems like the 2 issues are tied together and hoping my ideas match you teaching…

Hi Shawn. Should i keep a flat wrist throughout the backswing? Seems to restrict my wrist cock but it’s flat at the top. Thanks. Ralph G

I bat about .500 from the bunker. 50% stay in the bunker and the other 50% are home runs out of the park.

I’m scared to death. Is there anything I can do to avoid this? It seems my club deflects of the ground into the middle of the golf ball.

If we video taped ourselves throwing the club then throwing to a target above the ball then throwing to a target while the golf ball is in the way should the all look the same on video ?
