My questions to you are as I have been watching the videos and your setup for a draw and fade has me a bit confused. Sometimes it seems that your alignment is parallel to your target and you are opening or closing the clubface for the fade or draw. Then sometimes it looks like your alignment is open for a fade and closed for the draw. Then on a couple of videos, it looks like your alignment is parallel to the target with an open face for the fade. and closed stance for a draw. Is it situational, or is it just the camera angle? And you are always parallel to target and the clubface is the only thing you have changed? Hope these questions make sense.
This has evolved a bit in our teachings in the last 3 years; see our original “working the ball” video and then see the “diagonal stance series” where we talk about fades and draws with this stance and see all the “arc-blur” videos. It is all about the arc of the swing and the ball position and club face angle at impact along this arc.
Just finished Wisdom1.0. I so wish I had found you a few years ago. I am working diligently to change from ball-oriented to target-oriented. I have seen (when I do it correctly)amazing shots. I am hoping that your philosophy will help me ( I am sure that it will) shoot in the ’70s more consistently. Right now I shoot in the ’70s just often enough ( as I like to say ) to screw up my handicap and make me look (on paper) better than I am. A work in progress. But thanks for your insights.
Right on Arthur!
next, for a player of your caliber, you want to see “the throwing series”, the “arc-blur” and “unstoppable momentum” videos, the “target confirmation series” and the “pre-motor cortex series”
Hello Shawn, loved watching Wisdom 1.0 and the step by step introduction. Now wisdom 2.0 and 3.0 are sorted in the categories, so it’s difficult to find the further wisdom 2.0 and 3.0 content out of this and get a step by step introduction. Do you have a sorted list of this wisdom 2.0 and 3.0 videos for premium members to find and watch them in the right order?
The evolutionary order is in the “list of videos by date” from the bottom up; but through a few updates we noticed through the last couple years that the order did get messed up a bit without us knowing. HOWEVER, we have an amazing solution coming that will blow everyone’s socks off and there will be an official announcement in the next 2 weeks that will make things super fast to find and super organised.
stay tuned!!
Great! I stay tuned!
Shawn, your comments about finding a good teacher ring so true. My teacher that I had before lockdown insists on everyone always trying to play a draw and the way he gets you there is to look on trackman, show you that your path needs to be more to the right and then gets you to shorten your backswing and then manipulate your swing plane (using the Jim Furyk drill) so that you are artificially shallowing the club. He’s done this with me and I’ve overheard him doing this with many other students when practising on the range. I guess it does eliminate a slice…
I went to see him today because I had one more lesson in my pack and I was curious to see what he would say about my swing now I’ve been practising your stuff for a few range sessions. His Trackman said my 7 iron had a club head speed of between 91- 93 mph (!) and I was playing a nice fade (intentionally). He immediately said, let’s get you playing a draw and had me doing the same shallowing drills as I’d done before. Sure I was playing a draw pretty quickly, but my club head was down to 79-81 mph and I was often hitting the ground before the ball. He was really happy with the results 😂 – I kinda knew this would happen but wanted to go find out.
I was wondering, do you know any teachers in London (UK) or near to London that you would recommend/endorse?
Hi Christian! Near London no but I do have one a couple hours south; would need to get his coordinates out; we were posting our teachers in the description of our videos last year and it was taking up some room and I need to get them all up on the website soon;
Your teaching pro story sounds all too familiar…😝
I’d be very interested in seeing the pro a couple of hours south of London. Could you send me his details? I can send you a direct email about this if it’s easier.
What a revelation this Wisdom 1.0 series has been. I’m in my mid thirties and have played golf for a number of years getting to a 12 handicap. I’ve always felt Ive had the athletic ability to hit a ball far and well however it just never happened and have always been on the shorter side of shots against my peers.
After just 2 short sessions at the practice range following a couple of swing thoughts in this course I am seeing a ball flight that I have never had before.. and in a good way. More accurate, consistent and penetrating compared to my usual hopeful, inconsistent, and floaty fades.
Thanks a million. Now to remember to throw the club at a target on the course, and not look to hit the ball.
Awesome feedback there Andy, So glad you are enjoying the content! And this is just the beginning! 👍😀
