I get the perpetual motion as a drill with the driver and have no issues doing it correctly and getting super results When I am on the tee actually playing where you can’t practice the swing by hitting the tee. Should my practice swing focus on where the club bottoms out or where it passes the ball. With my irons I have no issues doing a perpetual motion and then hitting the shot which by the way is rock solid now.
I also notice that your club is started on the ground back some distance from the ball. In the past I have hovered the club at the ball but am more comfortable with the club starting on the ground. I assume there is no right answer to that one. Another great video.
On the ground at the centre of the stance is good! As long as you know where the arc is passing and where the low point of the arc is located. This way, you can easily place the tee in the way of the swing and simply be a witness to the ball getting swept away by the arc towards the direction you want to start the ball.
So Rory McIIroy uses 3 deg and 7 deg loft?
No, he hits up 3 degrees on drives he needs accuracy with and up to 7 degrees up when he is looking for that extra distance gear.
Big Big tip from the top. Very helpful cant wait to get to the range. will watch again then head straight there to get the feel and visual will bring the phone for refresher . Thanks
Good stuff! Let us know how you did!
This video beautifully shows the different task when using the driver. I also find when I maintain the tilt using my cap as a guide, it is impossible to rush the through swing,
Nice! 👍👍
Do you come to Florida and if you do, when
This year will be different for sure; borders are not open yet and we don’t know when and insurance companies are getting twitchy…looks like many of our members will not be coming down for the winter and we are making plans to expand the winter program. We have a great teacher in Naples, John Carroll, and another in Stuart by the name of Frank McChrystal. Send me an email at shawnclement@me.com if you want their coordinates.
I am having trouble hitting my 4 iron flush. I try follow all the steps but still not successful
Thin? Fat? Toe or heel?
How is the quality of the whip?
How is the effort on a scale of 1-10? (10 being way too much effort?)
I hit it fat and on the toe
I using about a 7 in effort. Sometimes I hit it fat and sometimes on the toe.
Ok, now things are getting clearer.
First see “blur of club” video so you can really identify your arc and distance you should have to the ball with that club.
Second, the effort level should be a 3 of 10 to get a 7 of ten speed and velocity in the whip; in other words, it should feel very easy to whip the snot out of your clubs.
Finally, see the “throwing series” and the “football drill” series to get your proper feel of delivery and support with all your clubs.

I don’t know what I am doing wrong. Everything seems to be chug. It gets frustrating.
Time for a swing analysis or a skype session! Let’s see what the heck is going on!
I will send a video. I can FaceTime also.
Send a face on and a down the line of a 6 iron; tell me what the target is, the flight plan used, the intermediate point used and the last thing that went through your mind before you swung.
Great video but the platinum nugget is at 6:30 about the cap. (Worked better than the water in the ear idea.) I would love to see a side by side before and after the cap tip because to my naked eye, it looked like he stayed back a bit longer probably allowing him to keep focus on target line to stay with his shot or something???
Both my daughter and I tried this tonight and it straightened out both our drivers significantly. Hoping it works on other clubs as well. We both tend to pull the ball and this seemed to cure that at least for the driver. Thanks.
Right on! Yes, the brain has a “reset upright” feature so you don’t walk around like Quasi Modo. 😝
So having a “visual” monitoring system for the tilt to make your brain aware of what it feels like to stay with the task for many is important. Match this with “target confirmation series”
I use only my irons when i play. I have come to the realize that My brain malfunctions when I get a driver in my hand. After seeing this video I can visualize the arc is part of a full circle. if that makes any sense but i will give it a shot.
Yes! Exactly! See our “throwing series hammer throw driver” in the new driver section of the video list too!
Nice camera work 👌
Hmmm…. Any idea why I may be breaking tees? It doesn’t seem like you are even pulling the tees from the ground. Mine appear to end up in the next zip code. Shrug. Thoughts on what the issue may be?
We use those plastic unbreakable tees; and you can set up a tee station like in the “throwing the club series” with the Driver Hammer Throw but put the tee in front of the ball at the same height about 6 inches away. If you clip the tee past the ball, you are not hitting up on it and therefore are likely to break your tees.
love this! hit my driver over 250 carry on simulator. before i was lucky over 200 carry . So I cant tell my golf buddies about you because its my secret!😉
Eventually you will have to spill the beans! 😝😝
after the next round ill tell them about you!
Holey moley Sensei – that was a fine shot to finish the show!!
It was sooo swweeettt! Could mot have placed there any better!!!👍😀👌
Great video! I was just working on this piece with the driver in the backyard. Question on the heel coming off the ground. I noticed that it helps to get the weight shift forward when I pull with the front part of the lead foot, while pushing with the ground on the trailing foot. Does this sound right? Also… It appears that you are saying to either lift the lead heal, or use the squat. Is there any reason why you wouldn’t do both and use the lead foot to help the weight shift?
Both!! 👍😀
Don’t worry about what part of the foot; just throw into a nice release in the direction you want to start the ball; let the footwork evolve around that.
So, is it always necessary to think about the task, rather than which muscles are required to complete that task?
Correct! The good lord gave you your own perfect Pinocchio WITHOUT STRINGS ATTACHED. What do you want to do with it now? Play body part positioning and drive yourself back into pre-stone age? Task-whip through a dandelion stem-Task-squeeze through a door frame-Task-whip a carrot peel towards the target-Throw a club into a specific height and direction…TASK IS THE “WHAT”
Golfers loose their swings because they think they are broken and need to be fixed by a “HOW”
Got it. Thanks for keeping me on the path. Old habits die hard, I guess. 🤔
I am having trouble slightly hooking the driven even when I am throwing to the target. Any suggestions. Thanks. Molly
There you go! If you are getting through to the target side of the ball and it is hooking; club face is too closed to begin! 😀👍
Good morning Shawn I’ll be 75 this week 11 hcp low 80s driver swing speed. I’m a bit lost in a sea of video instruction Could you please suggest a sequence of 4-6 of your videos. In addition do u review a videotape of my swing with subsequent suggestions? If so where would I send. Thanks Karl
Happy Birthday!
You can use the section in the Eagle membership side and if you have issues, send the 3 second clips to my personal email at shawnclement@me.com
