Distance Wedge Pump Drill

WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.480
This is the distance wedge pump drill.

2
00:00:07.480 --> 00:00:11.720
So pump drill is kind of working on transition and how you're going to power

3
00:00:11.720 --> 00:00:12.320
the swing.

4
00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:15.880
With the distance wedge, the big differences are we going to feel a little bit

5
00:00:15.880 --> 00:00:16.640
more vertical

6
00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:20.380
and we're going to feel like there's a little bit of an arm cast earlier than

7
00:00:20.380 --> 00:00:21.040
in the full

8
00:00:21.040 --> 00:00:22.040
swing.

9
00:00:22.040 --> 00:00:26.720
In the full swing, or the stock swing, that arm is going to get into more of a

10
00:00:26.720 --> 00:00:27.560
bent position

11
00:00:27.560 --> 00:00:32.320
on its during transition and you're going to get a little bit more tilt behind

12
00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:32.920
the golf

13
00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:33.920
ball.

14
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:36.990
So then you can have that arm lengthen on the way through, which is balanced by

15
00:00:36.990 --> 00:00:37.560
that upper

16
00:00:37.560 --> 00:00:39.240
body tilt.

17
00:00:39.240 --> 00:00:42.760
With the distance wedge, because our upper body is a little bit more stacked,

18
00:00:42.760 --> 00:00:43.160
when we

19
00:00:43.160 --> 00:00:49.730
do this pump drill, we're going to feel like the arms get down in front and the

20
00:00:49.730 --> 00:00:50.640
elbow of

21
00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:55.950
that right arm, where the trail arm tends to lengthen a bit as it's getting

22
00:00:55.950 --> 00:00:56.640
down.

23
00:00:56.640 --> 00:00:59.880
So the full swing pump looks more like this.

24
00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:03.760
The distance wedge pump is a little bit more everything kind of synced up.

25
00:01:03.760 --> 00:01:09.720
The body, the arm, and the abs are the ribcage kind of all going together.

26
00:01:09.720 --> 00:01:13.870
You're also going to focus on being a little bit more stacked on top because

27
00:01:13.870 --> 00:01:14.760
the backswing

28
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:18.070
didn't shift off as much, kind of kept us there and you're going to feel like

29
00:01:18.070 --> 00:01:18.520
there's

30
00:01:18.520 --> 00:01:24.920
a little bit more of this ab crunch or pelvis tuck.

31
00:01:24.920 --> 00:01:29.470
So we're going to work through pumping into that delivery position a couple of

32
00:01:29.470 --> 00:01:30.000
times and

33
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:32.600
then swing through.

34
00:01:32.600 --> 00:01:36.080
So quick demo, we can do the different length swings.

35
00:01:36.080 --> 00:01:43.160
So on the shorter one, on the nine o'clock pump, it's going to be almost going

36
00:01:43.160 --> 00:01:43.840
up right

37
00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:44.840
away.

38
00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:48.860
So I'm feeling like the abs and the arms are going right away, where on the

39
00:01:48.860 --> 00:01:50.960
longer swing

40
00:01:50.960 --> 00:01:54.770
I might not quite feel as strong the ab motion, I'll feel like the arms are

41
00:01:54.770 --> 00:01:55.680
kind of getting

42
00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:59.470
matched up and a little bit more straight or out in front and then going a

43
00:01:59.470 --> 00:02:00.160
little bit

44
00:02:00.160 --> 00:02:03.920
more vertical during the coasting motion through the ball.

45
00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:06.880
So that was the shorter one.

46
00:02:06.880 --> 00:02:12.020
Now if we're going to do the longer one, we're going to feel like the arms get

47
00:02:12.020 --> 00:02:12.400
down a little

48
00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:18.320
bit more in front, kind of like this, little contact issue there.

49
00:02:18.320 --> 00:02:23.630
You can see how long and shallow that was, so that would have only come up a

50
00:02:23.630 --> 00:02:24.160
little bit

51
00:02:24.160 --> 00:02:28.800
short at the front of the green, because the ground contact was nice and

52
00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:29.720
shallow.

53
00:02:29.720 --> 00:02:32.920
I wouldn't have lost too much speed from that.

54
00:02:32.920 --> 00:02:35.160
So we'll try that one one more time.

55
00:02:35.160 --> 00:02:40.520
So that full, there we go, feeling a little bit more there.

56
00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:41.520
That was pretty good.

57
00:02:41.520 --> 00:02:45.920
I had a little bit better trajectory a little longer.

58
00:02:45.920 --> 00:02:50.360
I felt like the first one I might have kind of kept this angle a little bit too

59
00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:50.880
long with

60
00:02:50.880 --> 00:02:53.560
my arm instead of letting it match up and sync up.

61
00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:58.870
So the pump drill can be really useful for helping work on the smoothness of

62
00:02:58.870 --> 00:02:59.320
force and

63
00:02:59.320 --> 00:03:02.820
making sure that you're not getting a really big pull down or too much tilt

64
00:03:02.820 --> 00:03:03.720
because you're

65
00:03:03.720 --> 00:03:07.480
using your upper body kind of explosively.

66
00:03:07.480 --> 00:03:12.990
It's a great drill for working on sinking up so that your belly button, your

67
00:03:12.990 --> 00:03:13.880
pelvis, your

68
00:03:13.880 --> 00:03:18.030
chest, and your arms have a feeling of them all going through it around the

69
00:03:18.030 --> 00:03:18.920
same speed.

70
00:03:18.920 --> 00:03:20.240
Do that and keep the center stacked.

71
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:22.610
You're going to have some really good trajectory as well as some really good

72
00:03:22.610 --> 00:03:23.460
distance control.
