HOW TO CREATE A PAUSE IN YOUR SWING👌 FOR AWESOME TIMING👍TEMPO AND EFFORTLESS POWER💪GOLF WRX

To gain more insight and in-depth analysis of this crucial aspect of the golf swing, I recommend you check out our premium channel at www.wisdomingolfpremium.com
Nothing is more beautiful than a well-timed and coordinated action in any sports, especially golf! You can always tell when someone is fighting their swing or desperately trying to control their actions which always leads to sabotage of fluid motion. Even more, there is no way to get to a state of flow where time slows down and confidence soars when you are micromanaging a herd of body parts; you focus on one, the other falls apart, and you keep chasing your tail trying to put all those fires out! This video is another fantastic stepping stone from the hornet’s nest back to the calm meadow.

I went from 120 average just a month ago and now I’m in the 90’s cuz of your videos. You’re the man Shawn!

[@michaelmcteigue7118]

I REALLY enjoyed this. Some of the best imagery I’ve seen/heard to describe the sensations of the effortless golf swing. Bravo, Shawn!

[@steveludwig1065]

Your explanation provides a great example of swing tempo that I have never received in any lesson. You have provided me with an fundamental understanding that was missing from my swing. Thank you!

[@onesipwonder]

Love how you make it more simple,not having to worry about the descending blow, or hit down pass the ball.

[@looselyrelatedpodcast2512]

I’ve watched a lot of different golf instructors on KZbin, but you Sean are the Bob Ross of golf instruction. The only difference is Bob Ross makes painting look so easy but when you try it it’s not as easy as he makes it looks. However your instruction actually does make it so much easier to understand. I love you and your channel and recommend it to all my friends. Still trying to figure out how to get more distance on my shots as I have 58 years old and only average about 230 on my driver. I wish I had you as my instructor. Well I guess I kind of do. Thank you so much! Oh, my name is Joe. I will subscribe to you under my name as well.

[@golflessons]

Right on! Thank you for the kind words; throwing the club is the best but also the release of the arm-club unit and on the premium channel at www.wisdomingolfpremium.com you will see “lead hand release”, “trail hand release”, “release fine tuning”, “snap release polish” and then “turbo charge the lead hand release” and “turbo charge the trail hand release” and then the “throwing the club”, “club speed” and “the throwing series”, “the goldie locks series”, “predict contact” and then the cherry on the sundae is “target confirmation series” THIS IS FULL SPECTRUM POWER BABY!!💪👌👍😀

[@jrshields3]

This is a great key to the flow of your swing. I will definitely be putting this into action on the range. Thanks!

[@kcs05]

Your quickly becoming one of my favorites. I’ve notice my best shots are when I seem to be slower. Thanks for the reminder.

[@ongta1265]

This video of Shawn is right on. I am a 5-hdcp and this is one of the top two things I suffered a lot in my game. If I pause in my back swing, then the ball goes further and more accurate. Often, I have to count one-two pause in my head, then three down!

[@golflessons]

Make it 3 “THROUGH TO intermediate point WITH EASE”

[@chriskirby70]

For how many years have I been killing my swing with this obsession of hitting the golf ball. I have spent the last coupke of weeks trying to get this out of my swing. Last weekend shot 80, compared to 94 the week before. I still "run home to mama" but thats because i have played the wrong way for 30 years. Thanks Shawn and co. Keep the vids coming mate.

[@peterboehm5178]

I love the baseball player sample - it‘s so powerful

[@elisabethkruger8882]

Got it!!!!! yeah!!! Thankyou Shawn and Co.

[@bottlapivo]

This video has been absolutely transformational for the short game. Pausing has always been an issue, particularly with finesse shots (less than full swing). The "swing key" of pausing with a sledge hammer (even when using a wedge) allows the club to do the work, rather than trying to drag the club through. One of the best golf instruction videos on the net for this problem

[@golflessons]

So glad you are enjoying the content! Our bodies are such amazing machines and they react so well to external focus!

[@harleybluesbiker]

Shawn, I used the Orange Whip today with feet together. It serves to supply weight similar to the sledgehammer with the added ability to throw. It gave me a great sense of timing. I was immediately able to implement the heave and throw into my swing. I increased my drives and woods by 20 to 30 yards. The iron shots increased both in distance and height and landed like a butterfly with sore feet. I will upload a video tomorrow morning when I am at the range.

[@adrianwells769]

Wow, what a brilliant 20 mins, thank you

[@Chris_Traynor]

Oooo love the waiting for the ball toss analogy. Haven't heard that one from you before. Very cool. Great video!

[@pauldavid7221]

For me this also was a challenge until I began to start back swing and down swing from the ground up. The pause seems to happen naturally. Thanks Shawn.

[@dangemmell9124]

Absolutely nailed it Thanks shawn and co 👍

[@vvwalker7261]

You are producing some great videos at the moment

[@dementus420]

The slight pause is sooo important and the good ol perpetual motion drill taught me that. That drill I learned from you, shawn, is the 1 drill that has helped my game more than any other. You gotta let it get weightless at the top! Thanks so much!

[@golflessons]

Yeah man! Nanananananana! 😀👍🤛💥🔥👌🎶

[@bobmurphy3061]

Perfect explanation!

[@goldhunter06]

Thank you. I was trying to deliberately pausing my club at the top of the swing. Now I know that I should not be thinking about it and just let it happen. Swing the weight of my arms and club unit. Thank you again, awesome.

You are an excellent communicator ... thanks so much for the best explanation of the pause I’ve ever heard !

[@golflessons]

We are wired so well for this! 😀👍

[@juliek.1830]

All of your recent videos have been tying the pieces together. Closing the face at address, allowing the wrists to hinge naturally, and now "wait for the weight"!! I have been working hard at it and it is showing results. One thing I also realized was that in the "wait" at the top I was relaxing my left hand grip which was causing some issues (more related to the closed face I think). I have had to consciously work on it, which isn't ideal, but I now am getting how to keep a firm grip without manipulating my swing. Thanks for all the great insight Shawn, Sav, and Mu!!

[@golflessons]

Right on Jason! 😀😀👍👍

[@jamiesloan7259]

This is GOLD. I play my best golf, when I feel this. I always served better(tennis) too, when I felt that rhythmic pause.

[@golflessons]

yeah man, means you don’t fight with the instrument! in harmony with gravity (what we call a gravity genius!😝)

[@NM-oq4dn]

This tip is golden. Straighter and longer. It takes a second for the club and body to load and the momentum to shift. That pause while the momentum shifts from back to down is the secret to distance and timing. Let gravity and momentum do the work. If you don’t do this chances are you are early, losing power and pulling shots.

[@golflessons]

Booom!!! Someone just got a shot of sweet wisdom!!😀👍👌💪

[@johnatchley9754]

In addition to the sledgehammer you could also use the way a child on a swing has that slight pause or coming to rest before changing direction.

[@11Morphy]

Thanks Shawn. You're without a doubt one of the best teaching professionals in the industry. I've smoothed out my swing considerably and added effortless power. I'm currently hovering around a +3 handicap but I feel confident I can reach +4 hcp by the end of this year, granted I improve my putting via strokes gained putting. My bad shots are definitely not so bad anymore. Thanks a million!

[@golflessons]

Brilliant! You are very welcome! That is a very impressive handicap; do you compete?

[@1striperon]

Shawn, I started a pause in February. It really, really works for me. Haven’t been able to play for 2 months, had hip replacement surgery today. Six weeks of recovery, I will be on the course sooner than that. :-)

[@golflessons]

Yeah man! Then come out and threaten the British open like Tom Watson did 9 months after his! 😀👍

[@fourftr]

First comment Premium channel worth every penny. Second when you say let the arms fall is crucial because when you pull the arms it causing tension and it interrupts the flow and decreases club head speed IMO. Very hard for us men especially because we’re trying to rip the cover off the ball 😂

[@golflessons]

Exactly! 👌👍 Thank you for the great comment and vote of confidence! 🫶🫶

[@mslu62]

Great video guys and gal ! This would be an excellent video for Sir Charles . He makes me laugh uncontrollably. :)

[@michaelcavanaugh9525]

Another great video! Sad to think I had never heard of you until last week. I won my club championship because of you... the day before the start of championship I was hitting the ball inconsistently and had 4 different swing thoughts. I then saw your ‘throwing clubs’ into the net video. It was very instinctive to me as a former baseball player used to throwing things. My only swing thought for two days was heaving the club back and ‘throwing’ the club down range. I was two under thru 16 holes and carded a 74 after a mini-meltdown on 18 ....and hit some of the best shots I have ever hit to include a 225 yard 4 iron to 5 feet for birdie! Yesterday you changed my game further when I saw how to get weight back to the front foot ‘from behind.’ (Toss Fall Fall I believe it was called...). The lag I picked up from getting on my front foot from behind was a true game changer.... killing the ball. Thanks- hope to get an in person lesson from you someday soon.

[@raymondsarraf8600]

Thanks for the great video. It helped me tremendously with the start of my swing and in waiting for my hands to stop before starting the downswing. Throwing some horseshoes really helps drive home the point

[@tomcorrigan7472]

Shawn Clement pause backswing

[@orkayen]

Shawn, I have seen most of your videos. You heave the club in a very graceful manner. Neither of your students are able to demonstrate that. I am trying it for a year or two and not able to copy it. Not sure what it is but I am missing that smooth swing. It may be the swing speed or stance width. Though you give him the step-by-step process, when he swings, it appears that he follows normal swing does not follow "heave-influenced" swing. I think, It is unique and just for you.

[@golflessons]

Not at all! Everyone has their own timing as to the engagement of their kinetic chain; Rahm is faster, Justin Thomas and Bubba Watson are slower; Sam Snead Vs Ben Hogan. The key here is to feel like you can effortlessly throw the club in the direction you want ro start the ball; so see all our “throwing the club shawn clement” videos and see what comes naturally to you!

[@phaber28]

Very helpful to know that feeling. as one who swings like Sir Charles. Swinging a club immediately after has a drastically different feel. Just a heads up, get ready for some questions from the wife as you bring, in my case, an ax hammer to the basement.

[@KevinORourke25]

Bio mechanics that occur naturally, Innate Physics, Sledge Hammers, Carrot peelers, Medicine balls and Happy Gilmore! All simply explained and shining a very bright light on how to play better golf. Not a word about launch monitors that spew out data that is useless to the AVERAGE golfer. In my opinion, the tech is important for aspiring pros and for those really low handicappers, but useless and confusing for the majority of golfers. Shawn, you're the best in the business. Hands down, end of story. Kevin O'Rourke

[@golflessons]

👌💥👍😀😊

[@alasdairstuart3394]

Great video. I was experimenting on the range this week and discovered that a pause at the top made all the difference. It allowed me to synchronise the downswing. I would add that the pause is really only in the hands at the top - the lower half does continue to move and then leads the club through the downswing. Many thanks 😊

[@pedrooliveros3085]

Good explanation for "ball bound" or "ball freeze". If you focus too much on the ball, the brain set the body to provide fine manipulation and the body freezes. So focus more on doing a smooth effortless swing and the ball was caught along its path. What works for me is doing few practice smooth swings and then keep the same thoughts/feel when I hit the ball. I even tried closing my eyes so I don't focus on the ball or just seeing the impact path/zone, "ignoring" the ball.

Great video as always. Question for you Shawn : Can you tell me the duration and the distance from the time you hit the ball on the tee until it release from the driver ? How much time does the ball compress (1/100 sec ?) and is it 1 feet or less in front of the tee before the release ? (Let say I hit the ball at 80 mph and the smash factor is 1,5 - ball speed of 120 mph)

[@rosworld9129]

Hate swallowing bugs!😂👍🏽

[@nativeflight7079]

I love the videos I can’t stop watching them. I just got into golf but as soon as I started to adopt your teaching method I started to hit the ball better. Everything feels very organic whereas before it felt forced. I’m struggling to understand the simplest of things. Could you explain the intermediate point? I don’t understand how to line up the shot. Thank you. Great work

[@golflessons]

Thank you for letting me know! See all our “alignment shawn clement” videos as they talk about how our human eyes are terrible with side vision and how all the critical instruments and gauges for pilots are 30 degrees under your nose. This has a direct correlation to why golfers struggle with alignment! The intermediate point is essential to proper alignment AND the delivery of your golf shots. on our premium channel at www.wisdomingolfpremium.com (only $9.95 per month) you want to see “alignment reload” and then “blur of club” and then all the “arc blur” videos to really help you understand how that intermediate point is used to deliver your golf shots.

Great Video Shawn! Another Eureka moment , when Savvy hit first 2 shots little heavy, you mentioned to peal like carrot or assume that you are taking divot to green(Throwing club concept again)! I hit a lot of fat shots. When I stand over 40-100 yards pitch shot, my brain says watch that ball clearly and do not hit fat! Anddddd here comes another BIGGG FAT one, this time I take almost a foot and 2 inch thick divot! This and other videos changed how my thought process should be! You might have a PhD in Physics and Psychology to understand the issue behind these golf swing issues!

[@golflessons]

Hi Achanta! actually, you are probably like many players who need to hover their club off the ground at grass level at address; AND USE THE FULL PREDICTION PROCESS. On our premium channel at www.wisdomingolfpremium.com you will see these important titles: -blur of club -arc blur (use the search box and watch all the ones that come up) -predict contact -the goldie locks series You will do these and then make sure that at address, you are letting the arms and club hang from the SHOULDER SOCKETS at just below the equator of the ball and then predict you will just graze the grass if you throw the club in the direction you want to start the ball. ENJOY!!

[@scottcasey1734]

Thanks! This really helps by getting me to trust and let the club fall instead of try to rip it through with the arms. The shots I hit on the range this morning seemed effortless! I could also instantly tell when I didn’t let that pause happen. May head to the store to get a hammer to reinforce the motion at home. 😊

[@charliepwln7845]

So, how is speed regulated when you want to hit it shorter or farther? What should be the focus?

[@ronchilo79]

I have a fairly long question for you..bare with me 🥺..... Should all your irons be swung @ the same pace/tempo, and let the club do the work for the distance? If so! Why is it that, it is good to some people that they hit their 7 iron 200 yrds or what have you. I think I get confused with that, like what's the reason of having a 5 iron that supposed to hit far? If you are trying to make your 7 iron hit it that far.... Thanks for taking time out to read.

[@golfergpab]

Sadly, been 'hitting the ball' for years; too much snow to go to the range currently (for another four-five months :)), but I'm curious as to the length of time it takes to trust swinging to target after 'hitting' the ball for sooooo long? Great lesson BTW!!

[@jdhaase1417]

These videos had really helped me. I shot even par on a very hard course and missed 5 birdie putts and my only swing thought was thinking about throwing the club at my target. Sadly, I had rotator cuff surgery right after and haven’t played in 8 months. The club feels foreign to me but I’m watching your videos again and looking forward to going to the range tomorrow. Any recommendations on how to find that magic again?

[@golflessons]

😝😂; and yes, open up the backswing and let the lead heel come off the ground and the lead knee rotate behind the ball in the backswing; all you need to do after that is throw into the direction you want to start the ball and the timing of planting and clearing will happen for you easily!

[@marclissoway2638]

Could you explain what kind of action that the wrist go through during your golf swing? Or is that something that just happens.

[@golflessons]

See my video called “all about the release shawn clement” and “loaded arms shawn clement”

[@andyvasily7296]

Shawn, great video. So, the arm unit requires to initial muscular thrust downward, but instead, feel that quiet pause and let gravity start the arms downward? Then once at the critical point exert muscular power to slash through the bamboo shoot extending well beyond the ball. Do I have this right? I've been working on creating that pause at the top but still feel that I thrust too forcefully from the top which then results in the quality of my strike being pure timing of the hands rather than the unified force of gravity and arms, hands and clubhead.

[@golflessons]

Hey Andy! No, you are thinking of the “how” right now and you want to have a “what” instead. So you are gathering the backswing like heaving an axe and the arms float and levitate to the top and as they get to the pause, it gives you time to think “throw the club in the direction you want to start the ball with ease” which will engage the kinetic chain properly with a nice shift and clear the body and deliver your release to the target.

[@pwrstrokin4134]

Hi again Shawn I noticed at one point Sav got the club head somewhat stuck in the rough on the takeaway. I suffer from this too now that I’m using your setup tips (lower more knee flex). What do you recommend to avoid this? Get setup then slightly hover the club with a little wrist hinge? Thanks - Phil

[@golflessons]

Hover the club from the shoulder sockets down! 😀👍

[@EAz-qb9mw]

Great lesson. When you get to the top of your backswing your right elbow is away from your body. How do you get it down and close to your side? Without making a conscious effort?

Hi Shawn - one of my tendencies is to get jerky at the start of the downswing, especially when I try a pause which causes a loss of acceleration at the bottom point.

Hi Brian! Never try to pause; the pause happens when you are not fighting with the club to try and hit the ball hard! 😝 See the “using the weight in your swing-axe drill with savy” on premium; that will get your flow into your task!

[@brianhumphrey8494]

Shawn Clement’s Wisdom In Golf Lessons will do and thanks for the quick response!

[@gregorymiller7861]

Question.... how does feeling the weight of the arm club unit relate to grip pressure. It seems to.me that lighter grip pressure would allow one to feel this weight where the tighter grip would cause tension in the forearms/arms. What would you suggest on a scale of 1 to 10. 10 being the tightest... ty SC!

[@golflessons]

Do not lose sight of the dynamic nature of the swing; 5/10 secure grip and get ready to feel the weight of the arc-club unit release you into the direction of the flight plan. So much G-force in the swing; just like a baseball hitter ready for the pitch; when he commits to the pitch and heaves the bat away from himself as he steps into the motion, the kinetic chain grows tone through lead leg, through the core, through the shoulders, arms and grip and then through the club head. Such a beautiful action!

[@gregorymiller7861]

Ty kind sir... ... i bought some foam balls to use my full swing in the backyard.... let's see how it goes. I am sticking to learning your approach to the swing. I will let ya know how it goes. Ty so much for responding!

Hi Shawn, great video..also who is the musician that you play in the beginning of your videos?

[@golflessons]

See the description! We credit him at every video!

[@pozmarciv]

@@golflessons Found the link but couldn't find the song .. Thanks anyway

[@Franz9955]

It seems to me there is no need to create a pause, but rather a pause occurs naturally without you thinking about it. That is the essence of the Golf WRX golf swing philosophy. An automatic golf swing created by your innate talents!

[@golflessons]

Exactly! All we need is a task that brings it all together without thinking; the grass whip, started over 80 years ago by Wild Bill Mehlhorn and validated by Harvey Penick, is a staple here; see “grass whip training shawn clement”

[@bw4820]

I’m a bit confused with the lag at the top and then I whip it through against not rushing my downswing. Great video though

[@golflessons]

See “how to stop rushing the downswing shawn clement” 😀👍

[@oobydo1]

for me i get a pause when i feel my wrist complete the hinge

How do I get info about your Premium Channel price?

[@golflessons]

Thank you for your question! Go to www.wisdomingolf.com and click on “Join” and you will see the options there starting at $9.95 per month for full access.👌👍

[@silverfoxx1062]

Thanks for the response! As a 70 year old, I finally figured it out on my own after I posed the question. I “googled” Wisdom in Golf and saw all the info. I’m retired and play golf once or twice a week and watch your videos on KZbin. I enjoy them and try to use the info when on the course. But old habits die hard - especially when you start getting tired on the back 9! LOL! What got me interested in maybe becoming a premium channel member was when you indicated on a KZbin video that you would show how to implement your swing with each of the clubs in the bag on the Premium Channel. So, I’m thinking about that. Incidentally, Shawn, one of my closest friends uses the same funny expression that you have used on videos after I launch a long drive - which is the best part of my game considering I’ll be 71 in a few weeks - i.e., “I saw snot flying off of that one!” Keep up the good work! Thanks. Jim Seeberger

[@golflessons]

@@silverfoxx1062 Right on Jim! No need for cold remedies when you can do that! 😝😝

[@creator1a66]

I am confused. Every golf pro is telling me: Your Bad shots are a result of too much up and down. Now i see this pro here. ???

[@golflessons]

Yep! Been teaching this for 25 years now!! When you walk, you stay level? When you pump a skate board off the back side of a roller to grab a turbo charged boost of speed, you stay level? When you skate? You have been had by the golf teaching industry’s “fear mongering” that the machine you have that works at 40 million bits of info per second is defective and that you need to micromanage it with a conscious mind that works at 40 bits per second. Time to come over here and learn how things really work!

[@creator1a66]

@@golflessons Thanks for your answer. Unfortunatley I am a bit far a way for a golf lesson. Northern Germany:-)

[@golflessons]

@@creator1a66 Just go to our premium channel at www.wisdomingolfpremium.com and for the cost of a one hour lesson with me, get a full year with my over 40 hours of videos that will teach you all aspects of the swing and short game properly and in harmony with the human body. We have hundreds of students in Germany and I have been to Frankfurt to give clinics twice already!

[@charlesbadgero4454]

Not sure how to ask this without making it public. Why is it that the swing I see you teaching is not the swing you use? I’ve been around golf about 60 years (no typo) and have had the opportunity to play with many golfers with low handicaps, teaching Pro’s, even watching golf on TV, and have never seen a swing that looks like yours. I mentioned you to a 2 hdcp at our club and he said “I don’t want a swing that looks like that.” You must look at your own swing once and awhile. Trying not to be critical as you do have quite a following.

[@golflessons]

So you don’t see Bubba or Kenny Perry or Jack or Bobby Jones in my swing at all? Full turn, knee behind, head back, fully gathered high hands and arms like a ball player or Justin Thomas…I have what works for me and allows me to enjoy great golf shots that rival any tour professional that has 115 MPH club speed with the Driver.

Welp yinz guys made a big mistake. You left the door open and let me sign up as an EAGLE member. Tomorrow I will get up and go to lowes and get the materials to build my backyard driving range. Privacy is essential to prevent interruptions and allow me concentrate while making video for my monthly analysis from Shawn. The guys at the driving range start looking at me kinda weird and think I'm talking to an imaginary friend. They are older and technically challenged and don't realize I am making videos. I know I am entitled to one video analysis per month. My question is can I ask questions in the form of video as opposed to just typing words ? I understand your going to reply in a manner which is most convenient for you . ps the student from hell. LOL

[@golflessons]

I don’t think you can do that on the comment sections of the premium channel, but once a month in your analysis, we can look at more detailed questions when you send your videos in!

[@likearollingstone007]

“Un air d’aller”

[@v205]

I don't see tour players swing like that though?

[@golflessons]

Bubba Watson, Kenny Perry, Jack Nicklaus, Matt Wolff…and many more!

Always great content however your two assistants are a big distraction ESPECIALLY bc they are left handed.
