Best ever Cowen transition explanation! THANKS!

[@NoVaCharlie]

Andy had talked about these types of Pete drills before, and if they don’t work for you like they didn’t for me, hit up Andy on skillest. He saw something in my swing that we fixed first that then made the Pete stuff work. The more personalized zoom on skillest worked well for me.

Thank you for breaking down and explaining what you are trying to do with this drill. It is often what’s missing from KZbin videos.

[@andycartergolf]

I'm always trying to do that, so im glad it helps

@@andycartergolf You’re next mission, should you choose to accept it, is to go through the Cowan towel twist drill. (This message will self destruct in 10-9-8…seconds)

[@robsmits9135]

Thanks Andy, for the good explanation. After years, finally starting to understand it 😅

[@natheward_]

Quality video as always Andy. I’ve got into the habit of feeling my lower body start the backswing, but these drills make a lot of sense. Will definitely try them out!

[@dutypaidrock]

It might just be me and my simple chimp brain, but I must have watched dozens of Pete Cowen videos and I can never understand what he means by what he says. He talks about 'loading the shoulders' and 'natural forces' and 'downward pressure with the hands', but he might as well say 'smell the colour purple' or 'feel what square sounds like'. I always better understand watching other people explain his ideas. I guess it's at least partially deliberate or else why would anyone pay for a lesson with him when it's all on KZbin? Must have watched James Robinson's lesson a hundred times and still none the wiser what is meant by 'load the shoulders for a fade/draw'...

[@mikebarnard2689]

From a fellow chimp, yes, loading is an unfortunate word, I guess it’s got to mean a feeling of pressure or strain. Imagine saying to Pete… “ hey Pete , could you actually quit all this confusing pyramid, spiral staircase, axe, loading chat and speak normally” How scary would that be 😀😱

[@stephenbrown8018]

He can’t make you feel what you need to feel it’s a progressive change that helps you to get the feel over time and practise. I’m battling with spinning the forearm down and keeping the wrist angle. So hard….

[@ReSourceEnergetics]

@@stephenbrown8018spinning is an unfortunate word. He just means pivoting it down. At shoulder height, the trail hand points away from target. When you pivot down, the fore arm doesn’t rotate it just straightens (palm is still away from target). Then your body pivot moves the bottom forward so you can apply pressure. So in essence it spins down without rotating towards target. Tricky terminology. I had to watch ten different videos to figure that out…. But once you understand it, watch out!

[@stephenbrown8018]

Thanks for helping me understand, much appreciated. I’ve started working with another coach and he’s working on getting me a better full face compression. Going to revisit this again, everyone teaches in a slightly different way, such a rich variety of methods among coaches, Pete has to be one of, if not the best in the business.

[@stephenbrown8018]

Actually sometimes wonder if the purpose of this drill is to get a bit more width in the downswing…

[@robsmits9135]

Thanks Andy, for the clear explanation of the golfswing

[@andycartergolf]

My pleasure Rob. Glad you understood it

[@joeperez3520]

This is interesting. All the instruction I have seen for a good number of years is based on the lower body starting the down swing which drags the arms down as the upper body follows the lower.

[@andycartergolf]

Its a great way to control the swing path.

[@haroldburch6751]

Hi Andy, I really enjoyed this video. It definitely works, thanks.

What a great video! I love Cowen but find him confusing.

[@thomasdayberry]

Nice explanation on getting the arms down, then rotating. This should help with my recurring slice. Never know when it will show up.

[@andycartergolf]

Remember the slice is often rotate then arms down! Practice ARMS DOWN 1st

[@jeffc1736]

@@andycartergolf Does this apply for drivers too, or just irons?

[@TKGP67]

Excellent break down! Thanks.

[@roeydaz]

The golf swing is indeed a complex move wherein you are always trying to coordinate body turn and arm movement to synchronise and produce that square, open or closed club face….relative to the shot you want to hit (as Peter Cowen would say!)…nice video…thanks Andy.

[@davidhorner879]

Struggle with flipping, going to use that split hand drill! Thanks. Lost so many balls left last weekend, hopefully that will help!!

[@andycartergolf]

Its a great but a bloody frustrating drill ha! Enjoy

[@rogernewton7831]

It's a good drill but it probably won't necessarily stop you from flipping unless you get your pivot right.

[@jacobseymour7221]

WOW! lower then turn. And amateurs turn then lower. SO TRUE! I just discovered how I was making this mistake. I was hitting weak irons with slices, lots of fat shots. Now I think at the top of the backswing drop your arms instead of lashing out at the ball by turning my shoulders at it. HUGE DIFFERENCE!

[@mmoloni3221]

Will try for next few months, thanks

[@diencai1812]

Absolutely gold; thank you

[@nicklasblomqvist1122]

Thanks, will try this! Pete tells Matsuyama that he can only practice it in the gym. Would be interesting to see a video showing the drills there.

[@gazpic4785]

That “turn first” is killing my driver, occurs usually when I try to put a bit more into it & get a booming slice… this vid makes so much sense & I guess repetitive drills are going to be the main way to cure… any other tips for stopping it?!

[@olleedsbacker3015]

Thanks! This is good quality content. Rgds Olle

[@Ken-jf1cm]

We've got .08 of a second from club parallel to impact, so we obviously can't consciously 'wait' till then to turn. I can do Rory's drill all day and get the 'feel', but when I go to hit the ball I'm back with my old 'patterns' (as Tiger would say!) How do you translate the feel of the Rory drill into the proper swing...deliberately hold the hips back from turning?

[@golfnut69]

Great point Ken! I prefer to squat in transition, this load the glutes and the club automatically drops into place. So squat, then rotate with the lower body in that sequence. Works for me.

[@chadspry2505]

Looking forward to trying this one.

[@andycartergolf]

It works!

[@johnpeng6335]

Great video! Just wondering if this method will slow down the swing speed or if there is way to see how the swing speed won’t be decreased?

[@grahamjones7371]

ive done split hands drill a lot in past (nicked it out of an old leadbetter book) without knowing why! for me it helped body rotation and a right side release. my advice for ordinary golfers like me is to drills off a tee to start with to give u confidence! or like me sponge balls in garage where you cant see where they go!

[@andycartergolf]

Perfect advise 🙌🏽

[@grumpyoldgit8254]

From what i have seen of PC, this move is inititiated by the left shoulder muscle dropping, not by pulling the hands down. (imho) Its the depth and and direction of the left shoulder (downswing) that is used to shape the ball. least that's how i understood it. there is also another video out there of PC giving another youtuber a lesson on the exact same thing

[@andycartergolf]

He talks about loading the shoulders and using this the initiate the downswing. But pulling the hands down also releases the loading of the shoulders down. I deliver the lessons in a way for amateur golfers to understand.

[@grumpyoldgit8254]

@@andycartergolf spose its all down to an individuals feels, if my hands are the feel i tend not to unload the shoulders, and start pulling accross the path.👍

[@19battlehill]

Called dropping it into the slot -- the way you arm drops in front of your right hip -- when you throw a ball from third base or short stop to to first base. YOU DROP INTO THE SLOT and then turn.

[@DanB-]

Great video and explanation on whats going on! Are you doing any in person lessons while your back in Manchester?

[@andycartergolf]

I’m not sure exactly when I’m back in Manchester yet to be honest. I will be doing but it may be September

[@jimgallagher5785]

Andy, thanks for "showing" me how to stop coming over the top.

[@adamprice9231]

Would that early extension fault potentially cause the dreaded shanks? I’ve been playing really nicely recently, however had a case of the shanks at the range today. This drill sorted me right out and actually ended up hitting driver the best I’ve ever hit it! Like absolutely smoking it off the end of the range 😂 thanks for the great videos but this one in particular saved the day!

Early extension can cause the shanks yes… but it seems this vid has helped you fix an issue so happy days. No more shanks, kick on and keel improving bud

[@lenardtan7169]

Can this transition be apply on the driver too..

[@andycartergolf]

Yes absolutely. There’s a video all about driver transition that I released this week. Give that a watch

[@0792matt]

So the spiral staircase drill. Start with left ankle right shin etc then opposite on way down right ankle left shin. But your saying start with hands pulling. Get so confused 🙈

[@andycartergolf]

Á transition ‘feel’ is dependent on the players fault in the first place. From experience the majority of ams start the transitions from the shoulders and hips causing an out to in path.

[@wenbray6396]

Andy, great vid. Does the right arm straighten when coming down or does it remain bent then straighten after impact.

[@andycartergolf]

It remains bent and straightens through the release point of the follow through. However as a drill its good to feel the right arm extend down whilst maintaining wrist hinge as if helps you feel the club in front of your body

[@saijinkai]

Andy, imho an explanation about how the right forearm/hand/elbow moves would help ppl. I’m guessing if you tell ppl to pull down, most ppl would pull down vertically like a hand chop which would propel the club head in front of the hands

[@andycartergolf]

Not necessarily, but it depends on the player. Its hard to make a generic golf tip personalised to all possible outcomes

[@saijinkai]

@@andycartergolf that’s a fair point.

[@simmo5071]

Pete Cowen knows so much about golf… it’s a shame he uses words that don’t translate so easily into swing lessons to many of us. You used the phrase turn the hips and I’ve heard so many state the hips DON’T turn but rather move backward and foward. When watching your tip of getting the arm back down before turning I wonder if you want us to get the weight back on to the lead foot first. You are lucky enough to be talented in golf like Rory you dress alike and probably hit the same kind of ball. Damn you might just be the non Irish Rory in disguise. Liked your video in general. The Pete Cowen comment was a bit tongue in cheek!

[@HBHS16]

Pulling the club? Don’t think so.

[@andycartergolf]

If its not your feel that’s ok. For me it is mine & for other too

[@HBHS16]

It’s my feel but not by 1st lowering the arm or pulling with the arms or hands. Once you’re set into your forward pivotal axis the the core and hips start the downswing and the arms go along for the ride. Otherwise you will impart an external force that will require some sort of compensation. I think you are doing that but the explanation needs some fine tuning. Good stuff though. I’ve been teaching for over 20 yrs and competed at the mini tour level back in the 90’s.

[@andycartergolf]

Amateur golfers need a feel. Setting hips into a “forward pivotal axis” means absolutely nothing to 9/10 ams! Most golfers start the swing with a rotation of their hips which causes major issues. I coach in a language amateurs understand.

[@eddieyao4096]

You talked too much!

[@andycartergolf]
