Really interesting.
Just had a few swings thinking about the sole of the club instead of the leading edge.
It makes staying behind the ball at impact seem natural instead of getting ahead of the ball with the upper body (my common fault).
Brain seems to just say “stay back behind the ball”. Makes sense I suppose because with the club head coming down you’d have to really flip the hands, and very unnaturally so, to offer the sole to the ground if the upper body is ahead.
Excellent realization! Well done!
You are on the right track;

I’m still on the grass whip. I gave the concept a try in thick rough swinging a wedge. However, I changed the task from hitting a ball to just cutting grass and varied the focus on depth. (half cut or along the ground) I also tasked myself to cut a large area thereby creating an ‘all day’ mindset. The first set of swings seemed to cut okay but required more effort than I thought it would. After many more swings, I noticed on the back swing that my left hand started to push down on the handle while using my right hand as a fulcrum. It felt like I was making the club weightless and giving it into a toss. Once weightless and the back swing momentum slowed, the whole unit just wanted to fall through the cut. This entire ‘weightless’ maneuver was not contrived, it happened naturally. Kind of like the body saying “Hey clown, if you are going to do this all day, we need a better way.” A self preservation thing. I just want to make sure that I am on the right path before I try to ingrain this move into my swing. Your help is always appreciated.
Very cool feedback here Jon; you could have written a chapter in our book with this one!👍😀👊
Do you feel that you are getting more velocity in the whip with less effort?
I received my grass whip. I have no problem cutting the grass, cutting through tees and under balls . Appears to my eye that the toe is touching the ground and not the entire whip.
You can place the hosel of the whip in a vice and it bends quite easily to adjust the lie to your swing;
Just use work gloves when manipulating the blade though!

Ok.Does it need to be more upright bring in the toe up.Or I have a friend who is a club builder and he could adjust it
Yes, at address the toe should be up off the ground as it has a good amount of toe droop during the swing; Shawn
Thanks.🙃
As I was quite alone at the golf course this evening, I played a 9 hole round where I did one or two swings with the grass whip prior to each full shot. I will do it again for sure! When I managed to feel the same weight shift with the golf club as I did with the grass whip, I hit excellent shots with heavy momentum! Oh yeah! For some reason I keep my balance much better with the grass whip, that with the golf clubs.. Maybe because there is no ball to hit? lol 🙂

Exactly! Have you noticed the difference with your focus when you are over the ball? Does the ball interrupt your focus of cutting through?
Well yes the ball interrupts my focus very often. Will try to ingrain that grass cutting feel/focus more.
