This course takes you through all the key pieces for building your own stock "tour" swing.

In the Build My Stock Swing program, you'll learn how to begin the journey of working on your golf swing. You'll work through the key ball striking skills: Solid Contact, Straight Shots, Long Distance, How to Adjust for Irons or Driver. With each skill, we'll address the basic fundamentals as well as advanced troubleshooting. At the end of this program, you'll have a great idea of what you need to work on with your game and a plan to help you tackle and prioritize your own full swing training.

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.600
Welcome to the Build My Stock Swing program.

2
00:00:07.600 --> 00:00:11.760
So in this program, we're going to cover all the big pieces of how you can

3
00:00:11.760 --> 00:00:12.880
build your swing.

4
00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:16.720
Now, Jack Nicholas had a quote that I love where he said that good golfers end

5
00:00:16.720 --> 00:00:17.280
up with

6
00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:20.640
three to five keys that make their swing work.

7
00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:24.800
And when their game is off, it's usually one of those keys.

8
00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:29.010
Or to a lesser extent, when each player is getting warmed up, they're checking

9
00:00:29.010 --> 00:00:29.280
in on

10
00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:30.280
their keys.

11
00:00:30.280 --> 00:00:33.760
Let's use some of the golf cliches, like, "Okay, I've got to keep my head down,

12
00:00:33.760 --> 00:00:33.840
keep

13
00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:36.800
my arms straight, and swing smooth."

14
00:00:36.800 --> 00:00:40.680
Well, maybe one day, I have to focus more on keep my head down.

15
00:00:40.680 --> 00:00:42.560
Another day, I have to focus more on swing smooth.

16
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:45.760
But when I do all of those pieces, I hit the ball great.

17
00:00:45.760 --> 00:00:51.230
Well, in the Build My Stock Swing program, we're going to go through a way of

18
00:00:51.230 --> 00:00:52.000
learning

19
00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:55.750
about the golf swing that's likely going to expose you to a lot of what your

20
00:00:55.750 --> 00:00:56.320
key areas

21
00:00:56.320 --> 00:00:58.680
are going to be, or what your keys will be.

22
00:00:58.680 --> 00:01:02.680
Now, instead of just doing it by kind of memorizing, "Hey, here's the takeaway,

23
00:01:02.680 --> 00:01:03.120
here's the back

24
00:01:03.120 --> 00:01:07.200
swing," we're going to look at it from more of a skill-based approach.

25
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:11.620
So we're going to look at the requirements of what do I need the club to do and

26
00:01:11.620 --> 00:01:12.120
how can

27
00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:13.200
the body do it?

28
00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:17.540
And so oftentimes, this approach gets you to your solutions and helps you

29
00:01:17.540 --> 00:01:18.200
figure out

30
00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:21.880
your keys faster than if you were to just learn it sequentially.

31
00:01:21.880 --> 00:01:26.360
So the three big buckets are we want to hit the ball solid, we want to hit the

32
00:01:26.360 --> 00:01:27.480
ball straight,

33
00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:30.600
or at least control the curve, and we want to hit the ball far.

34
00:01:30.600 --> 00:01:35.020
Now, hitting the ball far could be how far can I hit it, you know, maximizing,

35
00:01:35.020 --> 00:01:35.520
or it could

36
00:01:35.520 --> 00:01:40.900
be related more to distance control and predicting how far I'm going to be able

37
00:01:40.900 --> 00:01:42.200
to hit it.

38
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:47.700
But we can boil down solid contact to the swing arc and the bottom of the swing

39
00:01:47.700 --> 00:01:48.440
, which

40
00:01:48.440 --> 00:01:50.880
we call low point control.

41
00:01:50.880 --> 00:01:55.810
We can boil down hitting the ball straight to controlling the face and the path

42
00:01:55.810 --> 00:01:57.160
of relationship.

43
00:01:57.160 --> 00:02:03.710
We can boil down hitting the ball far to your sequencing, or your lag, or your

44
00:02:03.710 --> 00:02:04.720
shaft lean.

45
00:02:04.720 --> 00:02:07.000
But these three play off of each other.

46
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.420
So we're going to go in this order because sometimes when you try to hit it

47
00:02:10.420 --> 00:02:11.160
straighter,

48
00:02:11.160 --> 00:02:12.240
you end up losing contact.

49
00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:16.240
So I want you to already know how to improve your contact.

50
00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:20.160
Or when you start trying to hit it further, it might start going offline, or

51
00:02:20.160 --> 00:02:20.760
you might

52
00:02:20.760 --> 00:02:21.760
lose contact.

53
00:02:21.760 --> 00:02:23.520
So I want you to have those skills first.

54
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:26.400
Now because they play off of each other in this program, we're going to go

55
00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:27.400
through it

56
00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:28.400
in layers.

57
00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:31.880
So we're going to work on low point and then hitting the ball straight and then

58
00:02:31.880 --> 00:02:32.320
hitting

59
00:02:32.320 --> 00:02:33.880
the ball far.

60
00:02:33.880 --> 00:02:36.360
We're going to work on hitting different clubs.

61
00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:39.420
And then we're going to revisit it because once you understand the basics, it

62
00:02:39.420 --> 00:02:40.080
'll be easier

63
00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:42.240
to layer in a few more details.

64
00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:47.440
By doing this, I think you'll really kind of understand and own your own golf

65
00:02:47.440 --> 00:02:48.080
swing.

66
00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:52.960
That's why we call this the Build My Stock Tour Swing Program.

67
00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:58.720
But let's say you're working on low point control and you still even after you

68
00:02:58.720 --> 00:02:59.280
've gone

69
00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:04.200
through the program, you're having a few issues with maybe thin contact.

70
00:03:04.200 --> 00:03:09.900
Well now, while we have a lot of information in this program, it doesn't cover

71
00:03:09.900 --> 00:03:11.040
everything.

72
00:03:11.040 --> 00:03:15.380
So once you've gone through this program once, then all the other videos on the

73
00:03:15.380 --> 00:03:15.880
site will

74
00:03:15.880 --> 00:03:17.080
make more sense.

75
00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:20.120
You'll see how the videos might help you hit the ball more solid.

76
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:22.280
They might help you hit the ball more straight.

77
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:26.700
They might help you solve that one issue that's causing you to have the

78
00:03:26.700 --> 00:03:27.880
annoying problem

79
00:03:27.880 --> 00:03:29.360
that you're trying to get rid of.

80
00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:31.000
So work through this program.

81
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:35.210
You'll understand all the big buckets and you'll be that much closer to

82
00:03:35.210 --> 00:03:35.920
becoming your

83
00:03:35.920 --> 00:03:40.960
own coach once you understand your few swing keys and you learn to really own

84
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:41.560
them and

85
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:45.000
learn how to practice training them effectively.

86
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:48.680
So while we're going through this program, keep this framework in mind as you

87
00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:49.220
're going

88
00:03:49.220 --> 00:03:51.160
through the big pieces.

89
00:03:51.160 --> 00:03:55.670
If you recognize that one area is just super important for you, make a mental

90
00:03:55.670 --> 00:03:56.440
note of it

91
00:03:56.440 --> 00:04:00.680
and when you're done with the program, if you haven't had a complete mastery of

92
00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:01.040
it,

93
00:04:01.040 --> 00:04:03.800
then check out the videos on the site related to it.

94
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:06.520
That's how you're ultimately going to become your own coach.

95
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:08.160
So keep it up.

96
00:04:08.160 --> 00:04:09.640
Smart golfers are happy golfers.
