Hi Shawn – a couple questions on your putting setup. Do you try to keep your eyes directly over the back of the ball (to help with alignment/parallax)? And, your grip seems to halfway down the grip. I have been gripping at the bottom of the club (like all other clubs)… but just noticed that I am bending my elbow and standing a bit away from the ball, not over it. I am 6’4” tall. Maybe I need some adjustments (shrug). I am doing way too much three putting. Thoughts?
Eyes over the ball is not a priority at all! Balanced posture and balanced arm-putter unit below the shoulders. Use momentum to roll the ball in the direction you want to start the ball. So many try to put eyes over the ball At the expense of balance! Swing a sledge hammer back and through with your putting stroke, no way you can steer that sucker!
Thanks. So…. I think I get It…. balance and momentum are king when putting. So adjusting the point where one grips the club is the result of those two elements (balance and momentum, without manipulation)?
Very good!😀👍
How a beginner will view series in step by step way ? Any path here ?
Yes!!
Start with Wisdom in Golf 1.0; it is a nice 5 hour series from the beginning!
Then go chronologically from bottom to top of the list;
Have a blast!
Shawn
I have just ordered mine!
Anyway, just a question here Shawn if I may about the grip covered in one of your videos about weak/strong and how it works. Extremely helpful video which clarified a number of issues. Can’t wait to try adjusting my grip either!
My question is “ Is the grip for the driver equally strong as the one you demonstrate is applicable to the irons?”
Many thanks again for all your sterling work. It is a delight to pay for it-and I am a Scotsman!
Best regards Ian
Thank you for the very kind words Ian!
Some drivers are more draw biased and you won’t need to close as much; some drivers you will need to close more and some about the same.
The key here is when you let the club release in the direction you want to start the ball, how is the ball flying?

HI Shawn,
I would love to see a video of your swing, FO and DTL in split screen while you are talking over that speaking about what you are feeling in the swing and what you are doing. I think it could be helpful! Cheers
Tomorrow we are posting a terrific video on mile markers for tilt; which has some cool sensations in it;
Will also have some more audio files coming for that as well;
Thank you for the suggestion, will digest this some more!
Shawn
I’m not sure where to leave this comment…so I’ll just drop it here. Shawn, I have watched countless videos you have made on YouTube. I love your instructions and analogies. With that being said, I decided to buy a premium membership at eagle level and thought I could not be happier…until I bought a grass whip. I am absolutely smashing the ball with a wonderful release towards the target after just 5 minutes swinging my grass whip. I know I took the long way, but here is my point, if you like Shawn’s method, and want really feel what he is talking about, I suggest you order a grass whip. I found mine on Amazon. Thank you, Shawn, for all of the great lessons, you have a member for life. Sincerely, Travis Palmer(no relation to the King)
Right on Travis! THANK YOU for taking the time to write; anywhere is great! Glad you finally took the plunge and got the whip! So many times I get on the road and see our wonderful Wisdom in Golf Students and immediately I see what they need in their swing and ask them: have you thrown some clubs or slashed some swords or whipped some grass? And so many say: well, I watched the video and it makes sense! 😝 Now, Travis gets it! You need to DO THE DRILLS!😀👍
