    That trigger movement towards the target that Savannah does is what did it for me. By making that trigger movement and visualising the swing/shot I no longer get stuck in a neurotic fugue worrying about a myriad of different things rather than focusing on the shot. Thank you.

    I have started letting that left heel come off the ground and letting the lead knee to break more into the backswing. I'm beginning to love the results. The club gets deeper at the top and allows me not only come from the inside but to add a tremendous amount of gravitational woomph at the bottom. A " rotational fall " from that backswing position moves my low point forward and I feel a whip towards the target well after impact. Complete flush compressing contact and the golfball comes off the clubface like a rocket straight at my intended target. Funny people are starting to watch me hit at the range. The sound of slapping a horse on the butt. This is completely honest and I am most grateful for instructors like Shawn. Best by far but never perfect.
    Thank yinz

      She has a better tennis backhand than forehand (many do) and does the same as me in baseball and hockey; and she gripped the club crosshanded when I put a right handed club in her hands the first time she held it...lots of signs if you know where to look and we will do a nice video on that.

    • @jsusna1972
      @jsusna1972 Рік тому

      I noticed that, too, about Mickey's takeaway. It's like she starts by pushing the grip back and the clubhead lags ever so slightly behind. When she is at the halfway point, her clubhead is still slightly below the shaft. When she reaches the top, the clubhead falls a bit and she gets tremendous lag, which resulted in her prodigious length.

      But, in all seriousness (the club IS actually stuck in a tree!), just a few minutes of your "throwing the club" drill and my 52 degree wedge was going 10 yards further (about 90 yards) as well as giving better ball striking, lower flight (more shaft lean), backspin and accuracy, so I'd say that's a success!

    Hi Shawn, great video once again, I always love to see Mickey. I was just wondering, do you have any advice on alleviating the impulse to go at the ball? I've recently had some time off golf, and every time I seem to have a break, I go right back to trying to hit at the ball from the top and getting out of sorts. Even when I don't think I'm doing it, I slow down more and realise that I was haha.

    • @silverfeathered1
      @silverfeathered1 4 роки тому

      Hey there, just my couple of coopers here...
      Years ago I had what I thought was a rushed attack, similar to what I think you're describing. My issue was swaying to the ball on my downswing, head past the ball or even tilted towards the target. Passing the ball forces you to "attack the ball".
      Shawn touched on something similar in this video. Butt towards the target on backswing, head behind the ball tilted away on downswing.
      With just those two focus points, it was nearly impossible for me to "hit at the ball" as they say. You swing through because your body wants to.
      For some of us older golfers... The advice really takes some hammering in. Swinging our rears around as much as Shawn's suggesting here feels very unnatural to those of us that have been taught to lock our lower body and contort around our spine to swing.

    • @blackie75
      @blackie75 4 роки тому +1

      @@silverfeathered1 Cheers, I do have a bit of a sway away, then back, but nothing outlandish. I was putting it down to poor impulse control, but I may have inadvertently found a cure tonight. By not restricting my hips in the back swing, I'm able to fully turn away from the target, which gets my club much deeper. I was smashing 8 irons like I've never hit the ball before. All these years of hip restricting may have actually been killing my swing.
      EDIT: It's hilarious, I just watched the rest of this video and that's exactly what they're talking about. What are the chances lol.

      Comment was in reference to Bobby Jones advocating the poor advice of using a beach ball between the knees to restrict the backswing. Which I can not understand him using that drill. If anyone had a huge hip turn it was Bobby Jones. Perhaps I misunderstood your demonstration. The only reason I can understand this advice would be for the downswing to get separation of the knees.

      Nope Mega I would disagree. I feel the grip should be results oriented. True that grip is to strong for me and many others but is probably ideal for her. There are just to many factors involved to make that determination. When I take my grip and hold the club straight out in front of me the face is about 20 ° closed. I believe Savy's would be 45° closed based on my understanding. Nothing at all wrong with that . I could list several different things that would influence clubface rotation in the downswing. I can honestly say in no
      way I would change anything in her swing. Just saying.
