Shawn, is there an alternative training aid that I can use other than pulling the bull rope that will help to activate the lower body and right leg to get the body out of the way and make a complete backswing? Or is there one of your training videos focused on the same subject? Thanks
Hey Dan! Yes! Get the “swing caddy” from our main website at https://www.wisdomingolf.com and see the pro-shop page; get the standard one at 110 MPH with no light.
Before upgrading to premium i have to tell you, that this video (even i‘ve not finished the whole video) is the one where it made click in my head! Especially the drill with the heavy rope showed me and made me understand that you have to handle arms and club as if they were really really heavy, and all over sudden i got loaded, i felt that there is energy in my arms, legs and body and that it enables me to throw the club i direction to the target without even thinking about the ball!
Fantastic Thomas! Thank you for the feedback and keep going! 😀👍
There’s so many good nuggets here Shawn. The beginning part about clearing the body so the arms don’t fold when chipping has been so helpful for my chipping and my full swing. I also have the problem of feeling the weight of the ACU and using my legs to clear and start the backswing when at address.
Best one for this is the axe drill! See the latest one I did with Savy called “using the weight in the swing-axe drill with Savy” which is near the top of the chronological list of videos. “Anti-Manipulation” is also another nice one! Shawn
Great Video Shawn. This was probably one of the most helpful so far. (as I work my way up the list) Was amazing to see the difference between swings when Venky would concentrate on “throwing” the club vs “hitting” the ball. The bunker lesson was good also. What degree wedge are you using for bunkers, does it matter? I know you mentioned the grind and the bounce. Would you use different degrees at any times or same wedge? Even the flop shot, same or different for distance, or just use more momentum. I have been using my sand wedge (54) for all, taking different backswing lengths or opening the face more. Your swing seems much easier, lot less thinking. 🙂 Let gravity do the work. Throw the sand for bunkers, what about chip shots, what are your thoughts, Goldilocks, or could you think, cut and throw the dandelion to target?
The wedge is a 60 degree with 8 degrees bounce with the “C” grind on the sole. At Ping, this is the TS wedge in the Glide 2.0 stealth with 6 degrees bounce (black finish) and Callaway it is ghe C grind, 8 degree bounce
Stick to exactly what we talk about in the chipping video on premium; that is the most complete one yet!

Hi Shawn. I’ve been using your methods to increasingly greater success striking irons but have struggled undoing my “old” way of thinking with regard to woods, especially driver. My rhythm and backswing felt off and I would often misfit or lack power. After visualizing the rope drill you did with Venky my driver swing suddenly feels freed up, with tons more power and ease. I can now release to the target and I’m pounding it! Thanks
Nothing quite as special as pounding a driver; very satisfying indeed! 😀😎🤛
