On the drill, do you brush the grass and catch the tee or just catch the tee. Thank you
Only tip of tee! So it has to be hight enough to not catch grass before coming back up to clip tee tip on the way up! 👍😀
Hi Shawn. Happy here with a second comment/question in one day!
Since the swing plane is on an incline, once the clubhead bottoms out, the clubhead should be moving back to the inside as well as up as it approaches the ball at impact. This *should* promote a fade ball flight since the path is slightly out to in.
I have watched all of your ball flight videos (fade and draw) many times, but am not sure how to account for this when I want to hit a draw, especially the high draw.
Is this what you meant when you referenced the diagonal stance?
Best regards,
Happy Roman
PS I am about to watch Part 2 so if you answer my question there, I will see it shortly.
Hey Happy!! See “great driver nugget” and the “diagonal series” where you will see fades and draws with driver to knock out all doubt! 😀👍
Thanks so much for the quick reply. Shawn. I will watch those ASAP.
It also occurred to me this morning that you always stress the use of an intermediate point and feel like you are sending the momentum in that direction, or just to the left or right of it.
Religiously! 👍😀
So, for someone who is starting out with the site, and is looking to increase the driver from 85 mph, where do I start?
Go straight to the senior series, which is a power producing series; then see all the release videos and the throwing series and throwing the club. Then see the predict contact and the goldie locks series. Then we go from there to “feet together back to feet apart” and “pumping up the volume” and “open up the machine on the golf course”
I hope the man, the myth, the legend who is Mr Shawn Clement is having a great day. Quick question for you. I got myself a grass whip over here in the UK, and when I swing with the grass whip and do the perpetual motion drill with my driver I have the most perfect on plane swing which feels great and not my horrible inside and off plane backswing…but as soon as I get behind the ball I’m back to my inside and off plane backswing and poor ball striking…could you please advise me on drills to change this…I’ve been swinging the whip a few minutes each day and also been doing the perpetual motion swings when I take a break from work but so far it has not stopped me from going back to that dreaded inside takeaway and the super flat backswing, almost a baseball swing, any help would be greatly appreciated?
Are you performing the grass whip through a tee with a ball on it and having the ball fall to the ground? Do this in the backyard with plastic golf balls and master this nicely and see what your swing does when performing this task.
I have not done that exact move but I am on it now, thank you good sir! 🙂
I’ve noticed that you and your students in the Driver training video’s have the Driver about 4-6″ behind the ball at address, is there a reason for this? Does it help you maintain your tilt. I usually hold my Driver just behind the ball at address. However, it does feel like I am reaching forward and I’m most likely not centered…
Actually, I just read some of the comments below and they had same question and you’ve already answered the question…
This is a huge staple in our teachings; see one of my oldest videos on youtube with over 700K hits called “great driver tip shawn clement” and then see our main driver videos here on premium “driver” “driver part 2” “driver part 3” and also “great driver nugget” for perfecting and polishing the stance with the driver depending on whether you fade or draw the ball off the tee. Enjoy!
