That’s my go to swing thought too. However, sometimes I focus so much on slashing with the right side that I can feel my left arm not “getting out of the way.” I really like the swing about the head picture of how the momentum turns over the hands/arms together.
I shot 77 today in terribly cold and windy conditions.
1. Get behind ball and pick flight plan.
2. picture slash of heavy sword to cut through dandelion stem on a path toward target.
I mishit about 4 shots in the round. All fat…all caused by allowing strain to creep in an effort to try and hit the ball. . .relaxed cut through the stem with unstoppable momentum. That’s the picture.
Great video Shawn.
Great comment on some great awareness on what you left on the table!!👍😀🤛
I really liked this video on Unstoppable Momentum. My biggest issue is a bad habit of straining hard and swinging at the ball. In other words, I decelerate once my hands get down to the ball, which causes all sorts of bad shots, not to mention a big loss of distance. I’ve always known that my hands need to accelerate through the ball while chipping and pitching, but I had a real aha moment when I realized Unstoppable Momentum means accelerating through the ball and into the release on all my swings. My drives went from 220 yards to 260+. You should do a video on acceleration.
Great feedback man, great stuff! 👍😀
Gratz on the NBC Golf Channel Academy – You are an amazing teacher!
Thank you Jay!!👍😀
Hey Shawn! Couple questions. Does Sav raise her hands ala Nancy Lopez just before her backswing? Also, I cant seem to keep my left hand grip (I’m right handed) from sliding from the umbrella start to the palm of my left hand? I just did a half hour of half swings with no problem but cannot stop it from sliding on the full swing??
Love Nancy Lopez! Yes, she has the same engagement in the swing which is a kind of brace as she mini heaves the arm-club unit into her backswing; as for the grip; pretend the grip is a water hose and you are clamping down on it With the lead hand to stop the circulation or flow of water; literally crimping the shaft under the grip. Then do perpetual motion with it and hold it with the pressure required so that nothing comes apart.
I find that people get in trouble with the grip when they are trying to “place” the grip in a “perceived” part of the hand they saw from a demonstration of a painted glove. The main goal is to make the club a part of you and use the hand in a way that allows you to compress through the ball. Feels just like holding brass knuckles actually!
When you implement this teaching in combination with the Flow State series, magic happens. For me, my golf game has entered a zen-like state. Complete inner peace and a deep joy for the game that I have never experienced.
You just gave me a warm smile and somewhere, Moe just smiled too! 😀👍
Hi Shawn, I play fades. I have the target. I have the intermediate point. But my throw/unstoppable momentum is invariably slightly to the left and the ball flight kind of comes back to the line of the intermediate point. Rarely does it start over the intermediate point and then fade. If I play a draw, it starts from the intermediate point and NOT to the right of it.
Your side vision is still very much influencing you; do some goldie locks with ball position where you play the ball between center and the back foot-get behind it and feel like the ball is going to go 30 yards right of the Intermediate Point; SEND IT THERE WITH NICE MOMENTUM and see if it really goes there. Then let us know! 😀👍
Will work on it. And fades?
