Hi, Shawn. The slo-mos made me notice the trail foot heel stamp to initiate. I’ve been trying it out. Helpful.
My question: help in understanding low point for fairway wood / hybrids. With those, at setup, center of clubhead mass is centre of stance (in line with sternal notch), a position which I associate with low point of swing (all of those videos where you start with single arm shoulder swing then move to sternal notch). Yet the “thump” you mention with fairway wood / hybrid swing comes just after (target-side) of ball, which to me also says “low point”. Not sure how to put those together. Thank you.
Hey Donald! Sorry I missed this one! I got the perfect view for you! Go to the “kinetic chain facilitation series” and see the “sending the divot peels into the bush while walking” drill which I do with the irons AND fairway woods. You will see that the SHAVING OF GRASS BEGINS FROM CENTRE AND MOVES FORWARD ALONG THE GROUND FROM THERE. Because the centre of mass of the woods are behind the shaft, the face is more shallow as well, we need to play the ball a tad more forward that with the irons and we have a better buffer zone of success from there; but you always want to MATCH THE BALL POSITION WITH THE DIRECTION YOU ARE GOING TO DELIVER YOUR RELEASE INTO. So make sure you take the time to practice simple “goldie locks” at address to feel what is too forward, then too back then just right for that particular shot.
Once again excellent stuff Shawn ! Hey your ball position looks way forward ? Camera angle ?
Yes, I was aiming left of the IP, which makes the ball position look forward in the stance; the best way to see this and feel this for yourself is with a door frame and goldie locks! See the goldie locks series ball position video!
Are you going back to talkies anytime soon or just sticking with silent movies for a while longer? All in all your instruction has helped my game. Thanks
Just one more week of slow motions! Then back to some sweet talkies!!! I have some great stuff to unveil!!
Thank you Shawn, really enjoying breaking down the swing.
