Hi Shaun
I have picked up most things well on this site, but the fall is still my stumbling block. I still stand up out of the shot, always have done. But it still makes good contact. Its like my brain goes into self preservation mode and says if you fall to 6 inches lower you will slam the club into the ground and break your wrist. Obviosly it does not but can you give me some reassurance as to how you can make similar cintact at differant heights from the ball please
Hi Ian! Make sure the beginning posture is dynamic; see “posture” videos and then see “kinetic chain facilitation series” and when you combine what you are doing to the task of delivering grass clippings of divot peels to the direction of flight, you will have way more consistent contact! Remember that trying to “make sure” of things simply does not work; you deliver the task and observe and then deliver again. Do that an hour a day for 2 weeks and you are 15% better!
I had the same issue for some time. Then I realized once I got into a solid dynamic posture that I probably needed shorter clubs. I’d sometimes have solid contact on shot, but I didn’t fully feel the kinetic pump of the legs. If I let gravity do the work on PMP for instance I would stick the club into the ground unless I manipulated it. Now I grip down about an inch from the butt end of all my clubs and feel the free to the let the arms fall unassisted without worry. I’m 5’8” and have “standard length” clubs
Nice! Thank you for chiming in Jason! Great feedback!
Shawn , as I let the arms fall from the ‘na na na ‘ moment sometimes I feel the club touch me on the back .. where I’m trying to soften things on the way down I think I’m collapsing ? Is it arm tone? I have plenty of hip turn
That would be my guess too David; you want to feel that the ACU is falling wide to deliver grass clippings into the direction you want to start the ball and into the finish. If your arms don’t have enough tone in the structure, they won’t make it out here.
Shawn,
Could you please do a Fall Fall video with all clubs through the bag? This video is one of your best for the viewer to actually feel what you are feeling. I think it could be super helpful for all. Thanks!
Hey Pat! I am making a note right now; will do!
Shawn
