I’ve watched so many of your videos that I can’t remember where precisely you talked about visualizing driving the battering ram (but of the club) through the door as a way to get more of a delayed release. My symptom/problem is that I am losing lag too early on the downswing even when I try to fell I am throwing the club to my distant target; so I tried doing this battering ram thing but doing that the ball goes anywhere but where I want it to. How do your students implement the battering ram concept & how long does it them to adapt? Is there an alternative way to get the right release?
You need to match the battering ram to the direction you want to start the ball-your intermediate point;
Use the weight of the ram. Let the momentum of the ram release itself in that direction. See “Lumberjacks are the best golfers shawn clement” on youtube.
Shawn,
I’ve been hitting the ball to high as well which decreases distance in comparison to my fellow routine playing partners. Any thoughts on how to improve shot trajetory to gain distance/roll out?
First you need to choose the height you want to hit the shot on! Second, to get all the way through the shot, you need a grip club relationship that is CLOSED ENOUGH at address to allow you to get through to the target!! Please see “through the ball vs atbthe ball shawn clement” on youtube and then back here for many videos that are CORE to getting all the way through the ball, like the first video of the “consistency series training”
Sounds good Shawn. Thanks for the quick response!
Hi Shawn,
at address position you place the head of the driver about 3-4″ behind the tee but the handle stays on the medial side of your femur. Is it just a part of the prediction or for a specific reason?
Thanks a lot

The way we achieve this: THE TASK IS: I am getting ready to use my ball on a string to deliver the arc of the swing through the tip of the tee in the direction you want to strat the ball. So I am placing my ARM_CLUB unit in action on the arc and I am in a dynamic state of mind ready to deliver my task.
The result? You seeing what you see. However, if you try to copy my set up and use your PERCEPTION TO DO SO, you may be getting yourself into a bit of …trouble! 🙂
Ah got you.
But in your video with Savannah Meyer-Clement (unboxing the new Driver ) you “correct” her address position a little in the face on view though just she may know her dynamic state of mind to be ready to deliver her task.
I just want to follow a few rules that help me out with my Driver troubles😉: hitting a little more down than up on the ball and more toewards than in the middle of the clubhead…..
Pretty frustrating since years though I tried a lot.
By the way: when do you start over with videos in Quebec?
Also, starting in Quebec on May 11th!
Down and across will lead to toe shots for sure; that has a lot to do with loosing focus before or during the swing! You must stay all the way through the tip of tee into the direction you want to start the ball; have a full preview of the shot ready before you begin! (see the blur of the clubhead passing through the tip of tee and see the low point of the blur in the right place!

How do you hit your fairway woods? Do like my latest set up for accurate drives; and tee the ball about a half inch high, and then focus on the sole of the club staying along the ground into the backswing and then well past the ball through impact; eyes on the grass between club and ball because you will no longer see the tee anymore; just like hitting a driver off the deck on a perfect lie!

Hi Shawn,
I’ve been hitting the driver well but the height is just far to high if I want to play a fade. I’m hitting everything solid slightly on the way up to an even level of attack, but the thing is going into the stratosphere. I want to hit it lower without hitting down on it sharply.
I’ve got 8.5 degrees of loft and an xstiff 70g shaft. I can’t get the loft any lower. Would I just need a heavier shaft with lower loft to bring the flight down?
