Shawn I have watched u, sav, and mo, swing the driver numerous times left handed on your utube video and I have noticed that u tell us to see the blur which I now see but u suggest allowing the club to swing freely where it wants to go then setting up there. However I have a couple questions the first being we have all been taught to setup about a fist and thumb away from our body to address the ball with the club. Yet u suggest letting a practice swing determine where we need to be as u say the arms will get pulled out further from our body on driver? So I am confused on where I start behind the ball and where my hands should be as we were also taught to taught the back elbow?
Sorry tuck the back elbow
Hi Clarence! Fist and thumb drill is one of the most ridiculous things that has been taught out here in this game; it has single handedly held back golfers from enjoying their long irons and woods and driver in the worst way. Sorry you had to go through that and just erase anything that resembles this. See โdistance to ballโ and the โgoldilocks seriesโ has a video completely dedicated to distance to ball with all clubs as well as the โthrowing seriesโ which deals with throwing clubs of all different lengths. Enjoy your new freedom!
Thanks for clarifying that for me so promptly Shawn! Is there any shot in WIG that the hands do not come through first? I remember prior to becoming a member of your site I stumbled on a feel on the range with my driver that when I sensed the butt of the club coming throgh toward the target on the downswing I hit the ball much better. Then I became a premium member and voila there is your battering ram video that is exactly the sensation I felt when I stumbled on it back in the day! I would appreciate if you would advise if there are any exceptions on specialty shots etc where battering ram does not apply? Thanks so much!
That would be chipping and puttingโฆ๐
see โshawnโs new favourite drillโ which is a jackknife-battering ram drill; I play often with this drill with every club and absolutely pummel it effortlessly!
Shawn, Can you confirm it is the sole of the driver that you picture sending the tip of the tee into your picture or the sweet spot clipping the tee tip. Thanks!
Sole of club tips the tee to have the ball hit the sweet spot!๐๐
Forgot to mention… In honor of the British Open next week, I remember the classic announcer Peter Alliss commented after a wayward shot…”What a cruel, cruel game..” lol!
You mean the open ๐๐๐
