THE SECRET TO JON RAHM’S SWING IS WIDTH! | Wisdom in Golf | Golf WRX |

[@Thataintnothing]

Shawn Sir , Your by Far the Greatest instructor on the Tube, I have Changed from my Neutral Grip Where I would sometimes top the Ball or Toe Shank , To The Way Strong Grip and oh My , I am Just Smashing Driver , Woods and Now have Little Draw in My Irons with Greater Accuracy , Thank You So Much!!!!❤️

[@golflessons]

Right on Daryl! Stay with it now; remember that it’s the only way you will be able to access the target fully! 👍😀👌💪

[@octoberskye28]

When you use strong grip.. on your back swing. Does your clubface facing up at all times?. My driver, woods and hybrids always fade it...

[@jamesdavidson3259]

Thanks Shawn, you have helped me immensely, 66 yrs old beginner. now crushing my driver 250 yards up the middle.

[@golflessons]

Yeah man! 👍👍💪👌

[@GuyDanielCarando]

Un grand merci pour l'analyse ! Toujours pertinent ! Petite coquille à 17:26 : Jon et pas JoHn 😉

[@GLDNTRT]

Best instructor on KZbin!

[@ltlt5043]

Taught my teens your methods and still working on my changeover. They were so excited to think about launching rather than the ball and their distance completely changed big time. Thank you so much.

[@12496k]

Fantastic tournament coverage!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@jimg5859]

Your guidance on width and target were just what I needed to hear to improve my game was able to put those things into action and stop focusing on the technicalities of swing positions. took it to the course today and was able to dial in all approach shots by just thinking of delivering the swing to target!!!

[@golflessons]

Right on Jim! That is how you do it! 😀👍

[@stevebatty2518]

Was practicing width and lag today. Shorter swing really helped my consistency. Love the coverage of the Mexican open too Shaun!

[@golflessons]

Thanks Steve! I am glad you enjoyed the play by play of the final 5 holes!

[@markhall1067]

Shawn you are the best I'm hitting the ball better and further than before I'm 62 and driving the ball 270 yards and as I impove with your lessons I think I will get better 😉

[@golflessons]

Right on Mark! you the man! we make a great team!

[@_scumbrisket3172]

I see you Shawn… still doing it… you the man!!! My game is improving from videos I watched last year… matched my best score already this year… maybe i can break 40 this year…🤞🏾keep up the good work coach

[@georgesaltamach7386]

Hey Shawn. I watched “how to load the arms”. It makes scene. I was crushing my drives but hitting my irons fat. Any advice on a good video to stop those fat iron shot?

[@golflessons]

Yes, see “fat shots shawn clement” videos!👌👍😀😝

[@christianroche4888]

Dear Shawn, I understood your concept of the bamboo cut linked to the idea of ​​compressing the ball towards the target. but when I am in front of the ball if I apply this technique, which I have no doubt about its effectiveness, either I miss the ball or I fix a clod, why and what should I do to solve this personal problem? Best Regards Christian

[@golflessons]

There is definitely a couple key references missing in your approach; see “predict perfect contact and direction shawn clement” and “how to put the ball in the way of your swing shawn clement” On our premium channel, see “blur of club” and “the goldie locks series” and our latest “task to finish” series which shows you hoe to make the ball INCLUDED in the task.

[@scott7096]

Hi Shawn , with the lead hand release/elbow kicks down , is that something that should happen automatically or not ? It just doesn’t seem to happen for me naturally in my swing .

[@golflessons]

YET!!! 😝😀👍. You need to be able to feel the difference between hitting at the ball and releasing through the ball!

[@HolyGrailOfGolf]

Are you intentionally teaching people to slice? Jon Rahm hits the ball so far because he's a well practiced athlete at the peak of his athletic life and he's got legs like tree trunks. In 25 years he won't be able to do what he does now and to think that "anyone" can do what Rahm does is a pipe dream. That's like saying anyone can hit a home run off a MLB pitcher or anyone can drive a Nascar. These people are the best in the world, they are on a completely different level that most of us can not even comprehend, they are not common people. I've played with professionals like this that were so good it boggled my mind. At the time I was scratch but I had to stand back and just appreciate the amazing talent that I was witnessing - Driver, 7 iron into par 5s, 330 yard drives performed casually ... it's truly amazing. That's when you realize there's "good" and then there's "really, really good."

[@maxsmart8954]

The less swing approach means less to go wrong !!! LESS is more!!!

[@sfink16]

I've been trying to get width on my backswing and was hitting the ball well today until the 15th hole I played. I tweaked my left oblique on that swing trying to get more out of the swing. Is this something that I can avoid in future rounds? How often do pros tweak their oblique muscles, if ever, on swings?

[@golflessons]

Very common! Too much strain! You want 3/10 effort to get 8/10 velocity-compression which means you want to use momentum to build the through swing and not force.

[@sfink16]

@@golflessons Thanks!

[@jukkakymalainen]

I have question about your swing. In your real swing club shallows in the dowswing but it also looks shallow in followtrough. We can see the club under left shoulder. When you do the practice slowmotion drill you show much more upright position in followtrough for your club. We can see it over your left shoulder. Why they look different and is it better to try get more upright followtrough?

[@golflessons]

Depends on the shot and the club Jukka; don’t worry about how it looks as long as you deliver the task into the picture!

[@jukkakymalainen]

@@golflessons That actually is the genius and fun part in Wisdom in golf. Don't worry how it looks and just focus gravity and task to target 👍🙂

[@BlendedCloud]

I wind up my body now and feel like Shawn C and Savage. That’s my feel anyways….hehe After adding a Hogan weak grip, I’m golden. It’s no draw golf, unless a fall fwd into R foot.

[@scribnick]

Shawn, should I ever feel like I’m pulling the butt of the club down at the top of my golf swing, or does this go against letting my arms fall?

[@mslu62]

I will email you my swing and yinz can put it on youtube and share with viewers on what you like and dislike about it. I gotta warn you its powerful , repeatable and very accurate. Yep you shaped and built it but it is mine. ;) ;) That feeling of compression thru impact everytime never gets old. Lead arm drill is hmmm? Friggen " GOLD "

[@jdheelfan]

When I get width properly and swing with low strain it’s an absolute wonder how far the ball goes.

[@kirkclements4893]

So from an anatomical perspective, holding your lead arm straight out in front of your sternum becomes the max limit of width. Then just apply that to your golf swing.

[@golflessons]

Yes, and when you bring both hands on the club they line up right there in the centre of your sternum; you can’t get there without a good turn of the pelvis and rib cage so width and turn of body go hand in hand! 👍😀

[@roniwankovitsch]

Noticed Rahm's back (shoulders) was pointing at the target and his arse wasn't. Any comment? Is this something an older golfer should avoid? Or is turning one's arse toward the target easier on the anatomy?

[@Gumballa87]

the amount of "arse to target" is a function of stance width when counter-weighing the club&arms (hammer throw). If you are very flexible accuracy suffers with a narrow stance in the full swing bc you go past 90°/ 90° (e.g 110°/110°) pulling your head away from the ball in the backswing. wider stance reduces your range of motion. try feet together vs feet more than shoulder width apart and see and feel the difference :)

[@jvelez1998]

Brilliant lesson coach. This is where you are at your very best and at the top of your game. I really appreciate these segments in which you deconstruct the golf swing. Keep these coming! 🙌🙏👍💯💪👏

[@jcee6886]

About time the lads are allowed to wear shorts!

[@SuperPeakey]

God I wish I lived near you Shawn.

[@chrisjackson1266]

I can't get past how fast Rahm's swing seems to be. It probably feels fine from his perspective, but if I tried to match that tempo, I'd be even more all over the place than I already am.

[@golflessons]

Yes, you bet! You have to be so strong to swing effortlessly that way! And man, when you see that guy in person, and compare to others, he is a very imposing body! Really impressed me!

[@danielgermano3505]

I mean, the guy has the bagage for it, look at him hes built like an ox!

[@pmportella]

i've lost my swing, is very typical, i learn a new swing play the best golf i have ever played for 5 weeks or so and then i lose it, cant hit anything properly.

[@golflessons]

I see this often; what were you focused on when you were playing well? What did you try to fix when you started playing bad?

[@pmportella]

@@golflessons just focused on the basics of what you teach and on the bad times i went in without thinking of anything really and 'autoPilot' almost but something went!

[@golflessons]

@@pmportella SO YOU DON’T HAVE A SPECIFIC TASK???

[@pmportella]

@@golflessons i guess :(

[@golflessons]

@@pmportella See “grass whip training shawn clement” as an example of cutting grass; it will not take you long to become an expert at this and you could never loose this skill. The reason you loose your swing is you get distracted from your task with body part positions or scared of missing or being careful or swinging too hard. If your full time job was to cut grass, you would swing EFFICIENTLY, low effort and nice velocity, and would never worry about missing. Our Premium channel has great videos on “tasks” like “top 3 tasks” and “task trumps everything” and we have “throwing the club” as another one with “the throwing series”

[@TheBigBananaaa]

👍✅😜✅👍

[@careerconversations9275]

I like your instruction with one exception. At the 8:00 minute mark you talk about "gather wide" and you visually compare your move with John's. Your words don't match the picture. John has next to no hip movement in the backswing and you have a great deal of hip movement. It frustrates me when the instructors words do not match what my eyes see.... Just saying

[@garylucas7050]

I’m surprised he never said that Sav can outdrive Jon Rahm
