Master the No Turn Cast with Monte Scheinblum | HackMotion Webinar

[@jaxortjackie05]

Finally! A golf instructor explains the relationship between ulnar deviation coupled with wrist extension. And as a bonus radial deviation with flexion, and WHEN they happen in the swing! And how to blend everything into an effective pivot. Brilliant! Thank you so much! This has put all the pieces together for me.

[@neckupfitness3274]

Mike Austin spoke of this and it is similar to what you are talking about. He would say "throw the hands!" His compound pivot is the second part. Great video and I believe you are doing the right thing by sharing this as well!

[@shofey]

Pivot bit even beeded,

[@Latebloomergolf]

Mike Austin said that if you use the right pivot and tempo you can cast from the top and smash the ball everytime. The Mike Austin method is all over in this!!!! Keep it simple and hit it with your hands man!!!! Everyone is searching for lag when the real secret is letting lag happen naturally!!! You cannot create lag artificially. When you do it's never consistent.

[@shofey]

Not bad.

And causes injury. Mike holds a long drive record at the age of 64 in competition.

I also saw a Duval clip that change my swing completely. I went from a 4 to a +2 handicap. Under extreme presure I bring up old habits of lunging my body. But the more I practice the less this happens. Maybe once or twice in a round. I like to "feel" like I am dumping my angles while my back is turned to the target. Also, for some reason having a "scooping" feeling works too. It forces me to get the club in front of my instead of having it "lag" behind me

[@gzman1]

Duval was great player and a thrower/head moving of the club, got a link or more tells of what you saw in him? tia I heard stories of him just repeatedly hitting the 100 yard flag on the range and pros just stopping to watch him

[@armike234]

Moe Norman "I'm the only one where my swing balances my body." The body reacts to the intention of wat you want your hands to do. Nobody moves body first then the hand in any movement. When you reach for an item your hand reaches first then your body reacts and balances

[@Vee-Hive]

Interesting observation. Thanks...

[@RajKumar-zm4ll]

Very good explanation. It would be beneficial if this action was shown with a golf club to make it more easier to understand.

[@jeffmartinez262]

Every good golf swing has a cast!!! I define casting like this: In a bad cast, the club will reach parallel to the ground in the downswing, with the butt end towards the target at around chest height, but in a good cast the club will meet those conditions around waist height or lower. Casting is only bad when it's done as an attempt to get the clubhead underneath the ball to scoop it into the air, using the club as a shovel. Other than that, casting should occur pretty naturally, so that the club can accelerate as clubhead extends away from the body. Trying to hold lag will only stifle that acceleration. Thanks Monte for giving validity to this notion, backed with data and results.

[@golfbulldog]

Joe Norwood, a famous old teacher, used to say that Harry Vardon did a drill where he practiced his transition by hitting a stake in the ground placed at 7.30 (rather than 8 o'clock)... over a hundred years have passed and it is all being rediscovered., or so it seems.

[@cubfan69kmz85]

This stuff is brilliant IMO. For average golfers to even golfers with not insane clubhead speed, these therories of Monte S. work for a lot of people. Some game changing stuff here.

[@steveng8727]

Wonderful info Monte, when we move back to SoCal from the Philippines w/ definitely take lessons.

[@flipdawhip2573]

Larry Chueng preaches this, good stuff Monte

[@MrSiegal80]

People assume no turn means you won't turn. You still turn, you just do it at the right time with the hands and club. I have always had a phantom "reach" at the top: my hands would reach an extra step beyond my turn and would create a bounce to a steep downswing. The no turn concept really just explains the idea of the arms and body working together in a way that I never felt before. It really keeps the body over the ball more which is something a steep -to - early extender like me struggles to feel. The arms do not float behind the body and that allows them to be brought down in front of the body rather than having to stand up to hit the ball from the inside/down the line.

[@johnbelknap8751]

This is brilliant in my opinion. Listen closely, take it to the range and you will see the rewards.

[@shofey]

yep. but at the range hit to a target for best results

[@shofey]

It definitely works. I tried it with a weight forward setup and "hit from the top" without a miss. Only problem was Driver must have a "hit up" setup with that club.

[@conureron3792]

Love hearing not to force lag. I sometimes try to do it (I call it my Sergio move) and it’s always a disastrous sky slice.

[@jeffkolbash]

This is a pretty cool way to get golfers to free up the swing and let the club do the work. There is definitely some refining body and hand work that needs to be done but this is a good starting point for releasing the club early and working towards a smooth and effortless golf swing...

[@shofey]

Just Do it.

[@paulbarrett2756]

Good stuff Monte Especially for us àverage golfers thanks 👍

[@jamess9728]

You referenced David Duval. He's indicated elsewhere that he throws the club but always down onto or above the shaft plane that he started on. Your method employing ulnar deviation appears to throw the club below the original shaft plane. Please elaborate. Thanks!

[@benjaminhogan3157]

I think viewing the Tom Tomasullo Lee Ditrick videos will clarify what Monte is communicating.

[@connorchristy1077]

Wow. Simple, amazing advice on how to start the downswing. Too bad there is not much Hackmotion data available to the general public for a small fee. I'm much more interested in seeing data from Monte's swing than what is currently available online (since most people are physically unable to replicate what DJ and Stenson can do with their joints)

[@shofey]

Data?? Just do it??

[@ranmangolf]

I have tried so many golf swings over the years, some better than others, but as I have gotten older and have less flexibility, my golf swing has slowed down between P6 and P7. I went back to trying your "emptying the angle" early (cast) and this has helped lots. In the past, I had been trying to swing the club in a manner of holding the angles for more shaft lean, but discovered that holding the angle slows the club head. It doesn't allow the natural centrifugal force of the club to work. Emptying the angles early gives more stability to the clubface at impact. What are your thoughts on just using extension and flexion and no radial ulnar deviation?

[@shofey]

This is it for us old guys. We can't swing out the lag. Forget lag. Cast or Throw Just Do it.

[@jpbouffard]

I cannot form a mental picture of what is meant by getting "the center of mass of the club behind you" or "behind the hands." What is behind? Behind in relation to what? In what plane? I understand the casting motion. I understand what ulnar deviation is. I found the videos of Alex Noren and Bryson practicing this. But I still don't see what is "behind." To me, behind means the club head is in a bad place, where you have to work harder to get it to catch up and hit the ball straight. HELP!

[@benjaminhogan3157]

Love you Monte!!!

[@werquantum]

Rob Cheney sent me. Great stuff. Similar to Mike Austin’s philosophy.

[@steven3747]

Jack Nicklaus never talked about lag - at least not to any degree. His theory was from the top, release the club - period. It seems like Monte (although I am sure their methods differ) and Mike Malaska are aligned in that forcing lag and using a lot of lower body rotation to shallow the club (Gankas) is just not a practical way to go for most golfers. For the teenage kids, sure. For us mere mortals, simpler is better. Although Monte's explanation got a bit long winded here, I am sensing his methods which focus on the hands, arms and shoulders will be much easier to execute. Just my 2 cents.

[@RollYourRock]

Steven, your .02¢ was well spent! 👍👍

[@kevinwagnair4482]

1st move from top point of your swing is from your feet. Doesn't matter who thaugt you how to play golf. Sure you can use your hands from the top, but this will force you to make a step. There's no Chance to hit a Ball straight when u try to use the ground with your hands.

[@steven3747]

@@kevinwagnair4482 I agree with you, Kevin. The old school method of replanting the left foot to start the downswing is proof of what you are saying. My only point is that (over) emphasizing lower body rotation into the hitting zone is a tough thing to learn in middle age especially if it ignores the hands connection to the club and a proper release.

[@rodrig13]

@@kevinwagnair4482 I don’t think anyone is saying that the downswing “starts with the hands.” I think that scientific data has proven that movement differentials between the start of the lower body and hands is so minutely small (less than .02 second) that they are essentially moving at the same time- at least in what can be sensed by us mere mortals. This coupled with the fact that most golfers have been over taught “start the swing with the lower body” that gap in movement is far wider than what is effective in most amateurs. So in listening to Monte talk about this concept extensively, he advocates an intent to start the swing with correct wrist and arm movement. This in theory shortens that gap in the movement differential. The truth is that this is simply an intent. The intent to start the swing in this manner forces the body to set itself up properly and use the ground more naturally.

[@hawkeyefishguy]

Who’s he talking about when he says Brian???

[@johnr2632]

This is golfing genius. Not only does it work very very well in terms of strike, it actually helps accuracy .. better launch direction and less slice/hook spin. As a side point , part of the better strike is using the bounce often club better when you do this.... far less chance of the leading edge digging in.

[@arisandrews5672]

Monte, like the ND US sr. Open shirt

[@bjornd.4405]

Vertical drop, horizontal tug.....greetings from Moe!

[@shofey]

re listen to Monte.

[@bjarnieinarsson3472]

I did see this many years ago and indeed I do swing like this sometimes, mostly when I have a "hip" or "back" injury.. Here is a link to older swinger, Peter Croker: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3bTeampZ9qiqc0

[@shofey]

W What???

[@golpher12]

Holding the angle, lag, casting are terms that the golf lesson industry invented so golfers will keep spending billions each year on lessons. The secret is out!!!!

[@SibleySteve]

Great stuff, asking if the old Faldo video here is nearly exactly what Monty is describing? You can see the cast in the first 2 seconds, as well as the down the line backswing and flat wrists at the top. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIbCoWppbMR0ldE

[@shofey]

Noooo.

[@vietrandy1]

??? Nope! No thanks...
