Shawn irons are great. Fairway woods and driver fifty percent great. When the big hook comes it feels like my fight hand is is doing a fast release at the ball but that my club arm unit is still going to the target. The ball goes straight out and then exits stage left. I believe because they are woods I am trying too hard sometimes. Is there something I can concentrate on in the task to slow the swing and delay the release?
I got something coming for draw driver on premium that will really help!
In the meantime, have you worked on a power fade with Driver?
If your stance is square, it is much better suited (as for the vast majority on tour) for the fade and this is the break and butter shot for all the top guys with driver and woods especially
Shawn
Thanks Shawn. I have avoided the fade swing since your teachings fixed my swing. For thirty years I was an expert fader, I mean slicer. I never wanted to go back to that, so I have been hesitant to try or work on a fade. Even in a right to left wind I will setup for a draw if I have enough room. I will try to add it to the next practice session.
Shawn, I came across this video today. It is highly representative of your teachings…just a different approach. I’d be interested to hear your comments on it (about the instructor and his methods, not necessarily about the author of the video per se).
Thanks as always!

Oops, here’s the link!
Hey JK! Just noticed the link! Sorry about the delay;
Interesting chap for sure but you can tell his experience is very limited and I would not be surprised if he had watched a few of my videos! 😝😝
Some good nuggets for sure but structure is lacking…
Shawn
Thanks Shawn!
By the way, if I don’t answer withing 48 hours, there was definitely something I missed so please email me directly to let me know; don’t be shy!

Have a great day!

Hi Shawn
I love your tempo and your ease. It’s a great example for me !
But I’m embarrassed with the head club. When you throwing the club, we can see, in slow motion, that the head club is 15cm upward the ground and I cannot understand that without manipulating.
?????

Hi Poldi! This is where the “prediction to contact” is massively important!
1-You have an action to target such as Throwing
2-what do you want in the way of this throw?
3-get into a position at address that will allow the sole of club to cut the grass IF YOU THROW TO TARGET.
See the “predict contact” video in premium.
Shawn,
Good morning.
I am having some difficulty with the driver. The trajectory is too high. However, I am NOT crowning the ball just going too high. I use a 10 degree loft driver and my distance is still about 230-240 even with the high trajectory. I am making solid contact too. I have not taken a video of my swing to submit, which I plan on doing next week. Until then do you have any suggestions – I have watched the Driver series a few times but still in need of your expertise for sure.
Thanks in advance,
TP
Hey Thomas!
Is your driver adjustable? Take some loft off of it! If you are hitting it solid, and you are catching it on the way up, then a fitting for a driver may be in the cards; do you know what your club speed is?
Shawn
BTW – it is a 10.5 degree driver – not adjustable – it is an old Cobra. My wife my not like the fitting suggestion but you need to do what you need to do 🙂 – you cant believe how you have transformed my game. Playing only for 2 years and since seeing your first video – “Throwing the clubs” which I found by accident looking at comical videos about on course temper tantrums. In that time my 56 degree went from my 50 yard club to my 100 yard club, my 7 iron is now at almost 160 yards and my 3 hybrid is a solid 175-180! It appears that I have a natural fade and now with the infamous “intermediate point” I am practicing how to use it effectively!
Cant thank you enough!!!
Right on Thomas!
Club Champion does a good job in the US and up here in Canada, it is TXG all the way; see their videos at http://www.txg.ca
When lining up your target in the distance through your intermediate point do you find it easier/more accurate to focus on throwing over the right edge of the intermediate point (for a draw) or the target in the distance (let’s say a tree that’s behind the middle of the green drawing it back to a left pin ). I ask because of our faulty side vision and curious if that effects our ability of throwing accurately when we set up for a shot focused out in the distance .
Exactly! Always throw over the spot on the ground where you want to start the ball! That spot needs to be no more than 12 inches in front or in your immediate peripheral vision. Because the side vision will always mess you up and you cannot let it creep in and confirm anything; this has been one of our greatest discoveries through our teachings and research! Shawn
Shawn,
I’m struggling between the analogies of the football throw and pin the ball against the door frame when it comes to anti-manipulation. How are these two drills accomplished without a form of manipulation.
Thanks in advance,
Bull
Perfect! Use the football drill TO PIN THE BALL AGAINST THE DOOR FRAME with the weight of the arm-club unit! I am going to try this tomorrow!!
