Great videos…. didn’t know where to post this question, but are there videos somewhere that goes through the bump and run shot and setting up a preshot routine with various clubs?
Regards,
Dave
Oohh yes! Any chip shot we talk about is a bump and run 90% of the time unless it is an open faced chip;
Pre-shot routine is huge and is present on all shots on course; all working the ball videos;
1-flight plan
2-intermediate point
3-predict contact based on your action to target (see predict contact video and goldie locks series)
4-what was that feel again? (see pre-motor cortex series)
5-deliver your task, stay with it, and see what happens (target confirmation series)
Excellent! Thanks much, Shawn!
If I do a bump and run with a 6 iron using a chip technique, would it be best to keep the club face flush with the target, or slightly open?
This is gold! These videos are very helpful.
So glad you are enjoying the process! You can also be so comforted by the fact that we are a solid decade ahead of the industry! 😀👍 Just saw the latest instruction from Mark Blackburn talking about getting lighter in the backswing which I was doing videos on over 10 years ago!!
This is great stuff Shawn, thank you again for all of the awesome content. I recently ran across a video where you mentioned the need to attempt to keep the right foot down through extension. I know this is not process or task oriented thinking, but I have noticed when I see videos others have taken of my swing, my right heel is immediately off the ground when I start my downswing. Therefore, even if I stay behind the ball via thinking about my target, my right hip ends up being in the way of a “proper path.” However, if I try to focus on keeping my heel down, I end up not shifting weight and/or losing sight of my target. Any suggestions? I apologize but I couldn’t find that video.
See “bolted and centred” on premium;
You stay with your task of throwing, but you throw with the feet bolted; the weight will shift; just more centred than what you are used to and contained inside the feet.

Shawn – Great series! I have a good news bad news situation – Good news is that I have been able to develop a rhythm that includes the hinge and the throwing of the club – what a difference in ball flight!!! However, I since adding the hinge and release to my swing I am starting to feel what is golfers elbow 🙁 – Do you have any ideas as to what I may be doing that would cause this since it has only started since the new swing. I do most of my hitting at the range where they use mats on top of concrete and have seen articles that state this can also be damaging. Any advice here would be appreciated as the thought of putting the clubs down at this point would be very disheartening. Thanks!!!
Hit shots on the rubber tees; hit air divots when going to the range; see my oldie but goodie “how to stop topping and take better divots” video on youtube
As an ex rugby player who lifted a lot of weights in my time it was the bain of my life, Still i have trouble intermittently trouble with tennis elbow. Theraband flex bar works a treat. whenever i get a twinge i do a few twists on the bar, almost instant relief
Very good! Do you have a website or a youtube video link with the exercise?
Shawn
Shawn in the driver session the t is in line with your big toe .
Should I be moving the t more foreword from my left heel position to set up for the fade? I’m trying to contact the ball higher on the face. Now using Ping G400 with 10.5 loft.
Thanks.
Hi Jeremy!
Not necessarily; the key here is the direction and the height you want to start the ball on; then matching the “ball on a string” arc to this picture. Practice clipping tees with your arc and pay attention to the BOTTOM OF THE ARC when you are looking at your blur.
So in a practice swing, you would give the arm-club unit to gravity and see where the blur occurs and where the bottom of the blur is; you then adjust the tilt of the axis and create a blur that fits the intended picture. Then you bring the machine into where the tee is and match it to the top of the tee. THEN IT IS ABOUT MAKING THE BEST BALL ON A STRING YOU CAN, LA-DE-DA, THAT CONTINUES TO MATCH THE DIRECTION AND HEIGHT OF THIS PICTURE AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
Let me know if this is clear;
Shawn
