Would you agree that the low point of the swing, on both up hill and down hill shots would naturally be towards the high foot? Ie: right hand golfer hitting down hill shot, the low point would be closer to the right foot ( the high foot)?
One would think this is logical but no; same exact ball position as on flat land IN ALL SITUATIONS; the body naturally sets up with the slope as you ask it to perform the task of cutting grass along the slope. See all the 4 sloped lies videos called “uphill shot”, “downhill shot” ball above feet” “ball below feet” videos. Enjoy! This is BY FAR the best way it has ever been presented and the only correct way, bar none! Nobody comes close…
Hi Sean, so this drill promotes staying on your left leg throughout the swing, but in other videos you mention while in a normal stance you need to feel your weight on your right heel at the top of the backswing, then sink into your left side as you squat, obviously these are 2 very different feels for a full swing, so which is correct for a normal swing?
Haha! Very good question! The DOWNSWING feel is LIKE THE ONE LEG SWING. But the golf swing is a dual kinetic chain machine and the next videos you want to watch are the “weight shift with Savy”, “feet together back to feet apart”, and “the walking drill”. Then go to “the kinetic chain series” and the “Kinetic chain engagement series” which we are unveiling part 4 of today!
One of the best drills ever. I was hitting draws and fades further and more consistently on one leg than on two. I did the drill with my driver and my driver club head speed was faster. I gained 5mph swinging on one leg! Crazy!
Right on Greg! Just like we see with many! This is why we are including it in the off season training series 2 weeks from now! 😀👍
Shawn,
Yesterday, I used the Orange Peel training aid. It forced me to experience a full rotation. I observed greater club speed and a low effort high velocity swing. In addition, you can practice uphill, downhill, below the feet and above the feet shots. The device is large and not really portable so i begin to think of how I can accomplish the same feeling with what you teach. I thought of the feet together drill and one leg drill. In my experience, I get greater rotation and swing speed with the one leg drill. Is the Orange Peel a worthy investment?

It’s a solid product; the best product they have actually! 😀👍
Shawn,
I hit the 7 iron 50 yards further this morning with the one leg drill. It was amazing getting through the ball. I will add this drill for now . The orange peel will be a good add on to practice in different positions.
One leg power baby!! Ernest Jones would be proud!!
Question Shawn…does this make sense to error on the side of a narrow stance in general? I feel like times in an effort to be careful I widen my stance…this drill makes me think that that is about the worst thing I can do. The wider I get the less my pendulum works. As a general rule should I error on the side of narrow with all clubs?
You bet Charlie! See “width of stance and finish position video and this will confirm that a stance that is too wide will backfire with your natural kinetic chain! While you are at it, a nice series to watch is the kinetic chain series! 👍
