[@Janus381]

Shawn, this is JK from your old RH winter practice sessions. Have had some great ball striking rounds so was plannnig to post a comment, and another excellent video is the perfect spot. Strengthening my grip even more this year, and I'm hitting it further than ever. My playing partners are amazed at how far I hit my clubs with an "easy swing". For me, with the even stronger grip, my mind knows that I can hold the lag without fear of the club face being dynamically open. I can hold the lag, and "collect and release" the ball. Crushing my driver and irons, especially with draws. And the draws are gentle draws. You give all your students a great understanding of the key fundamentals, and watching your videos regularly just deepens my understanding.

[@golflessons]

Hey JK! Awesome comment and there is a great amount of WISDOM in there that is undeniable; congratulations on this tremendous accomplishment! I can feel and hear the satisfaction of “bliss on a stick” from here! 👍😀👌💪

[@wildernessdisneydad1621]

Thanks for another great video. I now realize that when I was a teen and in my twenties, I unknowingly swung with your method, but I failed to turn the club in my hands to avoid hitting it to the right. To compensate, I’d align to the left instead. Now at 54, I’ve lost the swing of my youth but finally understand what it was and look forward toward working to get it back!

[@MarkG_603]

Hey Shawn! Another gem of a video. Its funny, many of us grew up with perfect lag hitting wiffle balls in the back yard and then into youth baseball. This was my path. Then, when I began golfing in my 20s, with the ball sitting perfectly still on the ground in front of me... I neglected to use any of the kinetic skills from my youth to apply hitting that golf ball. This blows my mind. Enough history. This concept is one I'm working on with my coach and the results are absolutely mind numbing (good!). Everything you present is simple to apply and integrate. Keep e'm coming! 🤟🤩

[@joemc8488]

Hi Shawn, I play with a very strong grip. I lift my axe to top of backswing and pause do I emphasize a pull thru with my lead arm or pull thru equally with both arms?? My contact varies significantly. Thanks in advance for any input.

[@golflessons]

Hey Joe! It is called the human kinetic chain, a self preserving reflex action that starts from the ground in the lead leg and works up through the core, through the arm club unit and through the club head. Please go to our premium site at www.wisdomingolfpremium.com and see our “kinetic chain series” and our “kinetic chain facilitation and ENGAGEMENT series” then see our “throwing series” and all the videos with the word “release” in them and finally the “goldilocks series” and “target confirmation series” When you lock into the target with the use of momentum and a solid task, (task 2.0 series) what comes out on the target side should be a free wheeling release in that direction; when this is confirmed that this was clearly your task and what you were staying with, amazing things happen and you get to observe patterns that will lead you to simple adjustments in the grip and set up that will sharpen your swing like crazy!

[@ksharpe10]

Oh my Gosh, I used to use that leadbetter drill, I believe his instruction stuff Ruined my swing. I knew when Lydia Ko had started using him, that her game would go, proof, it surely did. She is young enough and fighting to return to former form. It was not broke do not work to fix a NO. 1 winning. She never should have stopped seeing her original swing coach. Leadbetter he had one that I know of good deal Nick Faldo. Just my opinion for what it is worth. good video shawn.

[@golflessons]

We are on the same page; I fought tooth and nail against this resisting lower body against upper body since the beginning; X-Factor was not cool either…Johnny Miller did not like it either at the time but nobody in the association had any idea how the body worked at the time either and we had to deal with trial and a lot of injury in the process. Not my students! 👍😀

[@ksharpe10]

@@golflessons Best book I ever did see from Leadbetter was when he was granted the original Photos that were the basis for the drawings for Hogan's 5 steps Book. I never got it the book. So I did not read all his analysis of the Photos or Hogan concepts. But the Photos were astounding in the Book. I was originally taught by a LPGA teaching pro. who had learned/worked at Golf Digest schools, and worked with Jim Flick, Bob Toski, Chuck Cook in the 80's. Their Whole premise/ or main ideal was that the Arms swing, and everything else will follow it. And that contrasted with the let the INSIDE make the outside,swing. Since now we have all the data/measuring devices it seems the better teachers are the ones who know it is a balance of Both. But in the case of Lydia KO she should have left well enough alone, she came in like a Tornado, and everyone still loves her, but some outside interference took her to mediocraty. What she did was her OLD SELF in the last round of the ANA/Dinah/Kraft in March, I think she if memory serves was coming from 9 shots back of the Leader who did win, Patty T. I believe Lydia came in 2nd, if Patty had not shot lights out the Whole tournament, KO would have Won. KO had a whole well balanced game coming in, she still probably possess's the best balance Short game. She does use that Aim point putting, which I still totally do not understand, something to do with reading the Green with your FEET. I used to use and would still do plumb bobbing, and actual reading what I see. I still have Dave Pelz's Putting Bible book. If it is not Broke don't mess with it, if broken then maybe look into it. KO knew how to play and score at Golf/course management. Of course the mental and travel part of Pro golf probably gets to alot of players, the other sad one is Yani Tseng, she hit the ball like a GUY, in her Hey day, her's is a mental issue most likely. And I never owned the Golfing Machine book, I have read or seen bits of it, it is way technical, some of it has most likely been substantuated/and debunked by the measuring devices today. Of course Canada is all excited I am sure of Brook Henderson, hopefully she stays the same. I live in the Golf capital of the world, Orlando Florida, area. Still hard to believe Golf Channel moved out of here, Arnie Palmer helped create that, from what I remember.

[@gdg9962]

[@johnsadler8637]

Timely video! I just came in from a very interesting session on the range. Since I switched to the stronger grip and it made my contact more consistent, I’ve started having fairly predictable distances for my irons, with wedges similarly spaced shorter. While there were still mis-hits, the ones with good contact ranged 95 to 135 for 9i to 5i. Today, though, the good contacts were at least 2 clubs longer. I was mystified until I noticed my hips were turning better on the longer shots. Once I noticed, I learned I can’t always create that, but apparently being conscious of it somehow positively reinforced whatever caused it, because it started happening more frequently. My only goal today was to get the squat on the lead leg to start the downswing. I don’t know if that somehow triggered the better hip turn or not. Anyway, I think I’ll try to reinforce this with the mat and whiffle balls. Then I need to get it to happen with hybrids and driver!! Thanks again for these videos!

[@johnsadler8637]

@@golflessons Question for you. Approximately how much forward lean on the shaft at contact is reasonable? Your comment in yesterday’s video about swaying hips back causing the swing to shift back struck a chord. I reviewed a bunch of slo-mo videos and some of the fore-aft variation is probably arising that way. So thanks for that. However, in looking at lag, it appears I might be extending earlier than desired. Ergo, return to this one. However, your stop action isn’t at a resolution to tell what lag persists through contact. Normal video displayed using the scrubbing on the phone isn’t either, but the slo-mo using scrubbing does a good enough job to see my shaft at contact. I have not tried to analyze these videos on the computer; maybe there’s an app for that? Anyway, what kinds of angles are desired would be a valuable input for me.

NEVER THINK ABOUT THAT EVER!! Just today, a student of mine came up from New-York City after a few months of online lessons and had not found a place to throw clubs; the lag he saw after 10 throws was off the charts better than before and he felt what needed to happen during the action. We then predicted what needed to be in the way of the throw and boom, cased closed. He has not used his driver in 2 years and is now hitting tight draws 260 to 270 down the middle. TOO MUCH FUN!!!

Thanks Shawn very useful drill … I try it today however I have question (I might did something wrong) but my balls had much much more hight when I did the hammering positon (video minute 10) …

[@golflessons]

See the “hammer through shawn clement” video, (an oldie but goodie) and the “battering ram shawn clement” and then see “weak grip vs strong grip shawn clement golf wrx” to make sure the grip and club gace are closed enough for this drill which of course is what the swing should be!

[@ebitalian02767]

Incredible video as always Shawn. We used this drill in CT last year. Anytime I’m struggling a bit I go back to it. Just to make sure I’m doing it correctly. The feel is that we deploy our hands in front of the ball (for irons and woods, slightly behind due to ball position for driver) and then allow the pocket knife / jackknife to deploy and slash through the ball in the direction of our intermediate point?

[@golflessons]

Driver is still past the ball; on the way up; flicking the tee into a summersault over the intermediate point! Deep out there!

[@robertstubbs219]

Love your videos! I tried this and hit the ball much better, the second time I tried my lower back got very sore. Was I doing something wrong or is my 63 year old back not able to swing with side tilt? Can't wait for the next videos.

Keep using a nice flow of momentum; don’t force or use and strain! 👌👍

[@robertstubbs219]

Thanks

[@andysuzi1]

Thanks Shawn, I really get the principle and the “stronger” grip position also helps with reducing my dynamic loft. I was at 22 degrees with a 7 iron now at 18 degrees (88mph swing speed) The area i struggle with is still the release 🤔 I “feel” the left elbow chicken wing which i cant seem to change. I feel i am holding the club face square through impact to counter the stronger face?? Great videos thanks

[@golflessons]

All right Andy; are you focused on hitting the ball or on collecting the ball from where it is and releasing it into the direction you want it to go? Also, see that the backswing path matches the shot like the “how to match backswing to target shawn clement”

[@golflessons]

Full pitch shots yes; not partial ones though…

[@calanoucsc]

Should the release of the club happen after impacting the golf ball? Is this the idea of hitting through the golf ball?

[@golflessons]

That is correct! You collect the ball from where it lies and you release it into the direction that you want it to fly on!👍 Our premium channel has an amazing series and videos on how the anatomy should yield when you are focused through the ball. See www.wisdomingolfpremium.com and see all the “release” videos and then see how the ball is in the way of this release with the “predict contact” and “goldie locks series” videos and “target confirmation series” videos.

[@TriviaJockey]

Shawn, great video, loved the explanation of the "throwing" or "axe" mechanics. But I have a question...every time I try this, by the time I move up to hitting an actual ball, I cannot get the face closed and I end up hitting way to the right and/or slicing. In essence, in 'relaxing' the wrists more to get that axe-whip motion, I don't bow the wrist anymore and open the club face. But then if I try it with bowing the wrist a little, then I get the wrist tension back and lose the 'whipping' motion. Any suggestions?

[@golflessons]

Hey Kevin! It is essential to grip strong to not only rid the slice but have complete access to the target!!! See “most important video on grip ever shawn clement” and “why your swing is underpowered shawn clement”

[@pete9909]

I've noticed with a short backswing and less rotation I can maintain good lag, but when taking a full fast swing I lose it all. So I will try your set up and swing thoughts.

[@kenhogan9699]

Hey Shawn, I've been following your videos for about a year. Hitting everything longer and feels much more comfortable. I recently was able to get on a launch monitor (GC Quad) and with the set up you describe in this video, I have a slightly ascending strike. Any thoughts on why and how to move to a descending angle of attack?

[@golflessons]

Hey Ken! What does it for many of my students including Savy and Mu is to begin with low punch draws with the wedges; then when you get that down, translating through the rest of the set is very easy. They both went from level to 4 degrees down average within 3 months.

@@golflessons Thanks Shawn. I will give it a try.

[@73henny]

5:47 isn't the bowing of the lead wrist what a lot of very good players do? DJ?

[@golflessons]

Some yes, but because they have to having a neutral grip; they also learned this at a young age and many have had some wrist issues; better for the vast majority of golfers to do like Zack Johnson!

[@josephshawa]

Sean, I have difficulty with this concept. In my mind the maximum speed of the club is, or should be, at impact. But this is when the outward pull on the club head is the greatest as well. Wouldn't the club just hit the dirt if you let it go at impact when the speed is the highest?

[@golflessons]

THE BALL IS NOT THE TARGET!!!! The ball is the intersection on the way to the real target; where you want it to end up!! Just like tennis, hockey, baseball, fishing, etc… We collect the ball from where it lies and we release it OUT INTO THE FLUGHT PLAN. Peak speed is WELL PAST THE BALL AND INTO THE PICTURE!!!
