First of all Shawn you make it look so easy….
When i take the club back with my arms the downswing there should not be any force or
manipulation with my arms correct?
Exactly! See “using the weight in your swing-axe drill with Savy” in premium.
Will a sling blade work like the grass cutter tool?
Sling blades are great! But get the ones that look like a golf club and not a coat hanger on a shaft…
During my practice swing, sometimes I’m not able to contact the ground so when I hit the ball, my strike is off. What could be the cause of this?
See the top 3 tasks video and try the “divot peels” and whip divots at your target just like the latest video from last week called “kinetic chain engagement #6”
This video made a lot of sense to me. After watching, I went in the back yard to hit a few wiffle balls. It took a few swings to learn how to relax the arms but once I did, the shots starting going straighter and a little longer. Definitely need to practice more but I did see instant improvement.
Shawn,
I saw one of your videos, a driver training session with a rather tall gentleman, with your advice “set up like a power lifter”; that new position felt odd to him yet had great results.
My tall player goldilocks question: tradeoff hip bend versus knee bend:
trying less hip flexion with the body more upright, I feel it is easier to perform a balanced “throw”, but this requires extra knee bend, which feels a bit odd to me too.
Would you rather say,
‘let you arms hang freely (‘out of the way, out of the way‘), – that determines your hip flex -, and adjust down further as needed with knee bend’ ?
Or,
‘tall players have to use more hip flex because they generally use too much knee bend’.
