Hi Dan Great Product! Angular Momentum is Real Golf and for me using hands and eye coordination can only be done smoothly by my little trail finger. Cheers ⛳️😃👍🥂❤️
Wow. This description makes so much sense. I’m lots of those examples of the wrong way to swing. Hit some balls and this makes so much sense. Thank You!
Great analysis! I have had that feeling of arms and club lined up at impact, (with driver) it feels great and effortless! You are right because whenever I "try" to make it happen , it doesn't work. This helps me understand what is going on.
Mine are 1/2" over and +1 degree. I used to be +2 degrees up, but as my motion has improved, i've gone to a little flatter lie angle. I'm exactly 6ft tall.
Dan tks a lot for your explanation but how can you explain the different power from each player? If we all have to respect this momentum, why there are some players much faster than other??
I'll answer your question with a question. If we all have the ability to run, why can some of us run faster than others? The more a skill is truly a part of your body and is as efficient as possible, the faster we can perform it. And yes, some people are just faster than others! And this ability certainly declines with age - if it didn't professional athletes in all sports would have much longer careers. The good news is that even if you are a "moderately paced" player, with maximum use of the motion of your body relative to gravity and rotational physics, you can create plenty of speed to hit it far and play at a very high level!
Yes - your opportunity to pump energy into the swing is done in the transition, then it is the free flow of momentum through the body to the arms to the club!
Is that critical opportunity to add speed into the swing due to the initial pressure into lead leg or am I misunderstanding the action. I do know that it is not spinning the hips nor shoulders as that has not worked for me for 25yrs of trying.
As long as all parts are synchronized its possible to swing fast. The problem is when you only add speed to one segment like just the arms, or just the hips that things go sideways. That's my definition of connection in the swing. Its synchronized timng, not having the arms pinned to the pectoral or anything of such. I suggest using dans principles slowly as really we should any golf move initially. You can always add speed. In dans approach I feel like I'm swinging the entire shaft not just the clubhead at the ball if that makes sense. I focus on the handle swinging around my rotating torso and forget about the clubhead to ball situation. That will happen and you will like the results.
are you saying let the arms just fall from the top and don't consciously swing them??? I have the Pro and can't get it to "start straight" in the FW. I"ve watched all your videos on this channel and your coach now app.. can you do a video just showing your swing without the Pro or a iron...so we can see what your arms and body are doing?
Will do that in my next run of videos! Your arms and the club (or PRO) extend simultaneously. Certainly might feel like just falling, but likely not. The trick to aligning the components is to use your eyes to watch the angle form between the grip and rope, then adapt your movements to the PRO until you can get it to stay in alignment. If you are struggling, you are trying to make the PRO adapt to your movements and that is impossible because it has no center of mass to manipulate like a golf club does! I'll explain that in a future video! Thanks!
.. eh the golf swing is paradoxical or at least anti intuitive 😢 Basically the difficulty is internalising the physics of angular momentum transfer, hmm. I haven’t come across any physics videos on this concept. I know they keep mention cracking a whip but never explain the physics, I’ll have to look into that 🤔

Boom!
Dan - I love “The Pro” !! It’s transformed my game. And, these videos really help fine tune my understanding of its benefits.
Thanks so much!

Right on!
Nice explanation.
Dan , I am your height , do you have a more upright set of clubs or flatter , than the standard ?
Mine are 1/2" over and +1 degree. I used to be +2 degrees up, but as my motion has improved, i've gone to a little flatter lie angle. I'm exactly 6ft tall.

One of the BIGGEST reason golfers don't improve is that they try to "delay", "pull down" and of course all types of MIS-information! Dan
I haven't received my Pro yet (maybe it will be more clear when I have it), but how do you maximize speed? Is it all created in the transition?
Yes - your opportunity to pump energy into the swing is done in the transition, then it is the free flow of momentum through the body to the arms to the club!

@@timothyslaughter476 there was a well know teaching pro way back in the 1940s who taught just that: swing the handle.
his name just came to me--Eddie Merrins. he taught some of the hollywood celebrities way back then.
Like cracking a whip. By the time the tip of the whip cracks, the handle's job has long since passed.
