Tyler uses tactile drills and coaching concepts to teach his ideas of the core components of elite putting.
In this video, Tyler walks the coaches through the hands-on drills for the putting stroke. The tactile drills include drills working on lower body stability, powering the swing with the shoulders, avoiding a "punchy stroke" and more. Tyler also walks one coach through a progression on developing tempo and another coach on a common cause of the yips.

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.280
Okay, so I mentioned the shoulder tilt as one of my most comments.
2
00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:08.120
So go ahead and get set up.
3
00:00:08.120 --> 00:00:11.640
So shoulder tilt is basically I'm going to hit the putt for him.
4
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:14.400
All he has to do is hold on to the putter.
5
00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:17.870
So I'm going to put my hands kind of on the shoulders here and I'm kind of
6
00:00:17.870 --> 00:00:18.560
applying a
7
00:00:18.560 --> 00:00:23.120
little bit of pressure here to prevent his arms from doing too much.
8
00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:24.880
And then all right, you're going to help start it.
9
00:00:24.880 --> 00:00:25.880
Ready?
10
00:00:25.880 --> 00:00:26.880
Go ahead.
11
00:00:26.880 --> 00:00:29.880
What did that feel like?
12
00:00:29.880 --> 00:00:31.880
A little less handsy.
13
00:00:31.880 --> 00:00:32.880
Well less handsy.
14
00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:34.880
Want to do it again?
15
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:37.800
Well you know who taught me how to putter.
16
00:00:37.800 --> 00:00:38.800
What?
17
00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:39.800
No.
18
00:00:39.800 --> 00:00:40.800
Uh.
19
00:00:40.800 --> 00:00:41.800
Stand like brother.
20
00:00:41.800 --> 00:00:42.800
Okay.
21
00:00:42.800 --> 00:00:44.480
Well he says it.
22
00:00:44.480 --> 00:00:45.480
He says he's handsy.
23
00:00:45.480 --> 00:00:46.480
Yeah.
24
00:00:46.480 --> 00:00:48.280
But if you actually measure him he's not.
25
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:49.280
Okay.
26
00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:52.160
And the way I've heard him explain it is I want you to use your wrist.
27
00:00:52.160 --> 00:00:58.880
I don't want you to look look wristy.
28
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:00.400
And the stroke feels faster.
29
00:01:00.400 --> 00:01:01.880
And the stroke feels faster.
30
00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:02.880
Okay.
31
00:01:02.880 --> 00:01:08.360
So then so that's option one I actually think he's going to like the elbow
32
00:01:08.360 --> 00:01:09.360
support.
33
00:01:09.360 --> 00:01:12.200
So this one I'll either do from in front or behind.
34
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.760
I'll show you from behind because it'll be easier for you to see.
35
00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:17.880
So go ahead and get set up.
36
00:01:17.880 --> 00:01:23.940
So this is I'm now like I'm basically like yeah he can feel it but I'm
37
00:01:23.940 --> 00:01:25.480
basically like
38
00:01:25.480 --> 00:01:30.730
putting above and below so that I'm controlling this angle right and so now go
39
00:01:30.730 --> 00:01:31.560
ahead and make
40
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:32.920
that stroke.
41
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:36.720
What did that feel like?
42
00:01:36.720 --> 00:01:37.720
Hey.
43
00:01:37.720 --> 00:01:38.720
What?
44
00:01:38.720 --> 00:01:39.720
Okay.
45
00:01:39.720 --> 00:01:46.430
Anything feel different in the arms and like what we're actually we're more
46
00:01:46.430 --> 00:01:47.200
stable.
47
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:54.280
Okay.
48
00:01:54.280 --> 00:02:00.680
So I use that one a lot from the face on go ahead and do it.
49
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:03.880
You just have to like you know kind of get pretty close to their head.
50
00:02:03.880 --> 00:02:07.000
So it's not always as comfortable.
51
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.000
Go ahead.
52
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:14.560
And then I'll use like which grip do you prefer when I was behind or in front.
53
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:15.560
That one in front.
54
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:19.560
Everybody's a little different in what they like.
55
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:20.560
So that one's fun.
56
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:24.080
Do you look at the space of support and or why is it?
57
00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:29.330
So potentially if I'm analyzing the stroke these are I would say more of like
58
00:02:29.330 --> 00:02:29.840
how I'm
59
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:33.360
actually influencing I'm not really diagnosing the swing with this.
60
00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:38.760
I'm either assessing or guiding right.
61
00:02:38.760 --> 00:02:41.800
So then the resisted lower body is really easy.
62
00:02:41.800 --> 00:02:44.740
I'm just going to I'm going to place my hands on your pelvis and I'm going to
63
00:02:44.740 --> 00:02:45.200
prevent
64
00:02:45.200 --> 00:02:46.800
it from moving.
65
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:51.200
So I go ahead and make your stroke.
66
00:02:51.200 --> 00:02:55.240
That one didn't feel like I had to do much to him.
67
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:58.190
He doesn't really struggle with that problem but for the people who need that
68
00:02:58.190 --> 00:02:58.800
that'll that
69
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:02.000
will usually be a really big light bulb.
70
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:06.960
So we did the elbow support the tricep shoulder blade feel similar to what I
71
00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:07.800
was doing on
72
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:08.800
the front side.
73
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:12.990
But now if you look I'm going to place one hand on his shoulder blade one hand
74
00:03:12.990 --> 00:03:13.480
on his
75
00:03:13.480 --> 00:03:20.260
tricep and one hand or one part of the hand one finger shoulder blade tricep
76
00:03:20.260 --> 00:03:21.080
and then
77
00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:22.240
kind of on the deltoid.
78
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:31.210
So now I can guide the this whole kind of arm complex of that one feel compared
79
00:03:31.210 --> 00:03:31.600
to what
80
00:03:31.600 --> 00:03:36.150
about what about the stroke like this like compared to me in the front when I
81
00:03:36.150 --> 00:03:36.840
was holding
82
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:37.840
on.
83
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:53.600
I don't know because I left the base open.
84
00:03:53.600 --> 00:03:54.600
Okay.
85
00:03:54.600 --> 00:03:55.600
Like rocking.
86
00:03:55.600 --> 00:03:56.600
Yeah.
87
00:03:56.600 --> 00:03:57.600
Okay.
88
00:03:57.600 --> 00:04:02.280
And then the one I had in there so we got two more the guided putter strike.
89
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:11.080
This is usually I do this on like the five footers but so this one I'll often
90
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:11.600
do for
91
00:04:11.600 --> 00:04:15.600
kind of like helping them feel like if they have like a really rapid
92
00:04:15.600 --> 00:04:17.040
acceleration really
93
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:18.000
long follow through.
94
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:19.000
All right.
95
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:20.240
So we're going to hit the stroke together.
96
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:23.760
You ready?
97
00:04:23.760 --> 00:04:28.310
So I'm able to kind of guide and sometimes I'll say if they're if they're
98
00:04:28.310 --> 00:04:28.960
really high
99
00:04:28.960 --> 00:04:32.240
handicap I'll just say let me hit the putt for you.
100
00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:36.170
So we want you to get decent at doing kind of like a good stroke on a reverse
101
00:04:36.170 --> 00:04:36.720
croquet
102
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:37.720
style.
103
00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:40.120
I've also seen that done.
104
00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:41.120
Yeah.
105
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:49.520
I feel like I can control it a lot more that way versus that way.
106
00:04:49.520 --> 00:04:55.190
And then the last one the one I showed there of the resisted flip is basically
107
00:04:55.190 --> 00:04:55.860
I'll put
108
00:04:55.860 --> 00:04:59.790
like stand up Lee has a drill where he puts a golf ball or you can use a tee or
109
00:04:59.790 --> 00:05:00.300
there's
110
00:05:00.300 --> 00:05:03.080
some other devices but I'll just put two fingers there and I'll apply a little
111
00:05:03.080 --> 00:05:04.460
bit of tension
112
00:05:04.460 --> 00:05:06.660
and then I'll keep it going.
113
00:05:06.660 --> 00:05:10.660
I'll kind of maintain that tension on the way through to take out.
114
00:05:10.660 --> 00:05:12.460
It stops this.
115
00:05:12.460 --> 00:05:13.460
Yes.
116
00:05:13.460 --> 00:05:14.760
What did that one feel like?
117
00:05:14.760 --> 00:05:15.760
Yeah.
118
00:05:15.760 --> 00:05:16.760
Yeah.
119
00:05:16.760 --> 00:05:25.780
This one's a lot easier to have someone else set up for you.
120
00:05:25.780 --> 00:05:31.250
That's the self like that's the actual drill in the self guided version is
121
00:05:31.250 --> 00:05:32.180
either that
122
00:05:32.180 --> 00:05:36.380
or a tee sticking out of the end.
123
00:05:36.380 --> 00:05:37.380
Okay.
124
00:05:37.380 --> 00:05:44.890
So you want to give those a try group up partner up see what the especially the
125
00:05:44.890 --> 00:05:45.420
the shoulder
126
00:05:45.420 --> 00:06:00.870
one and the elbow one which one did you feel it or just the idea I don't I don
127
00:06:00.870 --> 00:06:01.260
't grip
128
00:06:01.260 --> 00:06:05.070
like you but I'm big on radius change I don't like yeah and when I first
129
00:06:05.070 --> 00:06:06.180
started doing stuff
130
00:06:06.180 --> 00:06:18.500
you know and so stand feels it yeah correct and it doesn't change as much as
131
00:06:18.500 --> 00:06:18.860
you think
132
00:06:18.860 --> 00:06:19.860
correct.
133
00:06:19.860 --> 00:06:24.050
Start teaching it in the beginning he was hurting more people than he had yeah
134
00:06:24.050 --> 00:06:24.260
because
135
00:06:24.260 --> 00:06:28.260
he was teaching his feels you know but no I love that.
136
00:06:28.260 --> 00:06:29.260
You do it.
137
00:06:29.260 --> 00:06:30.260
Do you want to feel it?
138
00:06:30.260 --> 00:06:31.260
Hands in the right spot.
139
00:06:31.260 --> 00:06:32.260
Do you want to feel it first?
140
00:06:32.260 --> 00:06:33.260
Yeah.
141
00:06:33.260 --> 00:06:34.740
I'm hyper aware of it though too.
142
00:06:34.740 --> 00:06:47.500
So it's a little bit of a cheat so here we'll do feel that there okay go ahead
143
00:06:47.500 --> 00:06:48.940
there's a
144
00:06:48.940 --> 00:06:53.490
tiny bit on this one that lengthened a tad shortened oh it's shortened okay
145
00:06:53.490 --> 00:06:54.220
that's because
146
00:06:54.220 --> 00:07:01.780
I'm hyper aware of not like yeah but I tend to hook the shit out I tried to
147
00:07:01.780 --> 00:07:02.660
send a hood
148
00:07:02.660 --> 00:07:07.210
hook hook so this would be the other way that I do it it's kind of from there
149
00:07:07.210 --> 00:07:07.940
okay
150
00:07:07.940 --> 00:07:19.120
go ahead yeah so it's just kind of like okay yeah you have a tendency to want
151
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:19.340
to kind
152
00:07:19.340 --> 00:07:24.100
of pull with that just a little bit now just just being from talking today do
153
00:07:24.100 --> 00:07:24.700
you think
154
00:07:24.700 --> 00:07:27.530
any of that is because sometimes he wants me to make sure I have enough space
155
00:07:27.530 --> 00:07:27.940
between
156
00:07:27.940 --> 00:07:33.940
my trail of my ribcage I collide and then he thinks it's boom boom let me let
157
00:07:33.940 --> 00:07:34.340
me watch
158
00:07:34.340 --> 00:07:39.140
one let me watch a normal stroke I was too close to be able to look at it he
159
00:07:39.140 --> 00:07:39.700
adds a little
160
00:07:39.700 --> 00:07:43.560
bit of tilt for me to give this a little more room before it collides or else I
161
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:44.120
'll round
162
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:51.630
house it or yang okay yep let me see this have blend about 20 different
163
00:07:51.630 --> 00:07:52.100
instructors
164
00:07:52.100 --> 00:08:08.610
yeah yeah I think we're gonna sorry do it again do one more yeah go ahead and
165
00:08:08.610 --> 00:08:09.500
get set
166
00:08:09.500 --> 00:08:22.620
up let me get through my rituals here okay ready yep okay go ahead well fell
167
00:08:22.620 --> 00:08:22.860
different
168
00:08:22.860 --> 00:08:27.020
there the through swing it definitely did yeah swing wasn't wide no no it's
169
00:08:27.020 --> 00:08:28.140
basically
170
00:08:28.140 --> 00:08:33.090
on the way through I think you're I think you get a little bit almost like it
171
00:08:33.090 --> 00:08:33.500
moves
172
00:08:33.500 --> 00:08:39.020
this way but you also block it like to stop round housing instead of moving
173
00:08:39.020 --> 00:08:40.380
more vertically
174
00:08:40.380 --> 00:08:43.840
yeah you just don't move it and so because you don't move it then you have to
175
00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:44.260
pull it
176
00:08:44.260 --> 00:08:49.060
around more with this where when I keep it going this way you'll be able to
177
00:08:49.060 --> 00:08:49.780
feel like
178
00:08:49.780 --> 00:08:54.330
like the arm doesn't have to bend quite as much it just kind of follows it
179
00:08:54.330 --> 00:08:55.060
correct it's
180
00:08:55.060 --> 00:09:06.060
a mini it's a mini yeah 21 thoughts now yeah yeah I like your backswing 12 yeah
181
00:09:06.060 --> 00:09:13.700
that felt
182
00:09:13.700 --> 00:09:23.060
like more yeah that'll help with like the pacing what's your acceleration on
183
00:09:23.060 --> 00:09:23.580
sam putt
184
00:09:23.580 --> 00:09:36.310
lab look like yeah so this would help with that being less so yeah I'm saying
185
00:09:36.310 --> 00:09:38.580
in my own
186
00:09:38.580 --> 00:09:46.760
stroke yeah I am more like that okay and I am more flat are you a good putter
187
00:09:46.760 --> 00:09:47.260
yes not
188
00:09:47.260 --> 00:10:06.580
so bad okay if it works you don't I don't you don't have to change it a little
189
00:10:06.580 --> 00:10:07.420
more
190
00:10:07.420 --> 00:10:33.780
length on the back okay one more if he really has a hard time lengthening the
191
00:10:33.780 --> 00:10:34.260
backswing
192
00:10:34.260 --> 00:10:40.260
go ahead and get set up that's where this position comes in really handy
193
00:10:40.260 --> 00:10:40.460
alright you're
194
00:10:40.460 --> 00:10:45.010
ready I'm gonna kind of help you're just gonna you're gonna do it like 20% okay
195
00:10:45.010 --> 00:10:45.180
ready
196
00:10:45.180 --> 00:10:57.200
relax we're gonna stretch our no let the coach get ready so what did that feel
197
00:10:57.200 --> 00:10:57.460
in terms
198
00:10:57.460 --> 00:11:05.260
of length of backswing a little more that's what he wants different tempo mm-h
199
00:11:05.260 --> 00:11:05.900
mm I'll show
200
00:11:05.900 --> 00:11:12.240
you I'll show you guys how I teach tempo that will be that's part of it yeah
201
00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:12.660
that's
202
00:11:12.660 --> 00:11:23.430
like the elbow one yeah hey you I borrowed your putter yeah okay this is my
203
00:11:23.430 --> 00:11:23.980
okay I actually
204
00:11:23.980 --> 00:11:34.200
have one in a little bit this is my whole thing it's not as hard as it looks
205
00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:35.860
right any
206
00:11:35.860 --> 00:11:44.820
questions here so we did we did the elbow you like any of them any of them feel
207
00:11:44.820 --> 00:11:45.420
different
208
00:11:45.420 --> 00:11:49.980
now I the the one that I really like
209
00:11:49.980 --> 00:12:13.180
okay good yeah and when we switch places me personally the elbow one yeah yeah
210
00:12:13.180 --> 00:12:16.700
do you
211
00:12:16.700 --> 00:12:26.180
wanna feel try it go ahead and get set up okay
212
00:12:26.180 --> 00:12:42.100
how did where did it feel different a lot different in the back yeah yeah that
213
00:12:42.100 --> 00:12:43.820
's one of
214
00:12:43.820 --> 00:12:50.230
your that's my matchup yeah yeah yeah kind of like standardly describes but
215
00:12:50.230 --> 00:12:50.820
doesn't actually
216
00:12:50.820 --> 00:13:02.020
do yeah yeah shoulder one is primarily forgetting the tilt to be more vertical
217
00:13:02.020 --> 00:13:10.820
yeah oh so yeah
218
00:13:10.820 --> 00:13:14.620
if you're doing this it's it's kind of like thumb on the shoulder blade and
219
00:13:14.620 --> 00:13:15.500
then finger
220
00:13:15.500 --> 00:13:19.250
on the tricep and I'm kind of like you it's almost like creating a little bit
221
00:13:19.250 --> 00:13:20.580
of you can
222
00:13:20.580 --> 00:13:25.530
see how it's almost like a little bit of a vice could you feel that that feel
223
00:13:25.530 --> 00:13:27.460
what do
224
00:13:27.460 --> 00:13:31.070
I feel like to you how much work was I doing not a whole lot it's more of like
225
00:13:31.070 --> 00:13:31.500
a gentle
226
00:13:31.500 --> 00:13:54.570
guide look for you did I feel similar to mine good let me just check in on any
227
00:13:54.570 --> 00:13:55.100
yeah
228
00:13:55.100 --> 00:14:01.220
we're struggling a little bit okay you found the okay oh good awesome yeah that
229
00:14:01.220 --> 00:14:01.740
's why we're
230
00:14:01.740 --> 00:14:14.790
here then all right which any of them feel helpful or which ones okay okay okay
231
00:14:14.790 --> 00:14:16.260
what do
232
00:14:16.260 --> 00:14:21.510
you struggle with with your product okay okay more more speed control more
233
00:14:21.510 --> 00:14:23.340
start line more
234
00:14:23.340 --> 00:14:30.340
all the above yeah I mean speed is okay green rings are right but I think it's
235
00:14:30.340 --> 00:14:30.980
start line
236
00:14:30.980 --> 00:14:37.000
lack of getting in there properly and start line okay let me let me watch one
237
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:37.780
yeah and
238
00:14:37.780 --> 00:14:50.320
then I'll jump in okay yeah yeah and I like try to push it okay so go ahead and
239
00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:50.700
get set
240
00:14:50.700 --> 00:15:01.880
up we need this one you ready okay go ahead what fell different there what
241
00:15:01.880 --> 00:15:03.660
about the
242
00:15:03.660 --> 00:15:12.490
arms any let's do it again that felt different though right okay ready go ahead
243
00:15:12.490 --> 00:15:17.500
yeah I could
244
00:15:17.500 --> 00:15:21.640
I can feel that this basically almost wants to pull and as it pulls it's going
245
00:15:21.640 --> 00:15:22.180
to twist
246
00:15:22.180 --> 00:15:28.320
so like for potentially you felt more movement happening like within your your
247
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:29.140
body your
248
00:15:29.140 --> 00:15:35.140
core yeah yeah okay so now you try to duplicate that okay I'm just going to
249
00:15:35.140 --> 00:15:35.740
provide a little
250
00:15:35.740 --> 00:15:41.520
tiny I'm not even going to do much I'm just providing a tiny bit of like feel
251
00:15:41.520 --> 00:15:42.180
so that
252
00:15:42.180 --> 00:16:00.580
it's kind of the same okay see how this is I make a stroke you're ready to be
253
00:16:00.580 --> 00:16:03.180
guinea
254
00:16:03.180 --> 00:16:12.100
pig come on in you're okay with it right yeah you'll be a good sport
255
00:16:12.100 --> 00:16:30.380
pretty much is this your worst name or not too bad okay okay so those are the
256
00:16:30.380 --> 00:16:30.980
big kind
257
00:16:30.980 --> 00:16:36.850
of like tactile drills big buckets but I also use a lot of the self guided
258
00:16:36.850 --> 00:16:38.300
drills so we'll
259
00:16:38.300 --> 00:16:45.810
go through a few of those what I wanted to start with here Adrian's self
260
00:16:45.810 --> 00:16:46.860
diagnosis is
261
00:16:46.860 --> 00:16:51.420
I stuck it putting and that she has kind of some like a lot of excess arm
262
00:16:51.420 --> 00:16:52.220
movement so
263
00:16:52.220 --> 00:16:56.770
I'm going to start by assessing how the arms are working similar to what we did
264
00:16:56.770 --> 00:16:56.940
in the
265
00:16:56.940 --> 00:17:02.070
full swing so we're going to do the single let single arm right hand left hand
266
00:17:02.070 --> 00:17:02.740
so let's
267
00:17:02.740 --> 00:17:12.580
go ahead and and we can get a little less what yes basically all right so and I
268
00:17:12.580 --> 00:17:13.080
'll show
269
00:17:13.080 --> 00:17:16.020
you kind of how I walk through this so first one's going to be right hand only
270
00:17:16.020 --> 00:17:18.140
so you take
271
00:17:18.140 --> 00:17:31.360
your normal set up good yikes yeah okay not too bad now left arm only scared
272
00:17:31.360 --> 00:17:31.980
scared
273
00:17:31.980 --> 00:17:49.460
more scared than the right okay oh yeah okay and so just like in the full swing
274
00:17:49.460 --> 00:17:50.020
version
275
00:17:50.020 --> 00:17:55.300
the main goal is to get these to match up and what was what was different there
276
00:17:55.300 --> 00:17:55.420
what
277
00:17:55.420 --> 00:17:58.130
was different in the left arm compared to the right right arm felt better for
278
00:17:58.130 --> 00:17:58.500
sure for
279
00:17:58.500 --> 00:18:18.640
sure okay and the left was like wiggly wobbly yes Logan I I've met some pretty
280
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:19.260
good putters
281
00:18:19.260 --> 00:18:29.770
um honestly I this is the first I hadn't thought about it I actually hadn't
282
00:18:29.770 --> 00:18:30.300
noticed
283
00:18:30.300 --> 00:18:37.080
um so I'll have to think about that why why are ladies you're kind of why are
284
00:18:37.080 --> 00:18:37.400
ladies
285
00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:59.570
okay it might be the legs okay all right well I'll think about that one but let
286
00:18:59.570 --> 00:18:59.820
me see
287
00:18:59.820 --> 00:19:08.820
so while we're working here we had one that wasn't too bad pop lot of positives
288
00:19:08.820 --> 00:19:09.060
and one
289
00:19:09.060 --> 00:19:13.470
that was not very good so we're gonna use the good one to tutor the bad one so
290
00:19:13.470 --> 00:19:13.940
go ahead
291
00:19:13.940 --> 00:19:28.760
and make a right handed stroke and now put your left hand on take your right
292
00:19:28.760 --> 00:19:30.220
hand off
293
00:19:30.220 --> 00:19:35.960
what's different there compared to when you did the left arm only yeah way
294
00:19:35.960 --> 00:19:37.500
closer and
295
00:19:37.500 --> 00:19:42.440
it was it was also kind of like lengthened right yeah okay so now take a left
296
00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:43.380
hand practice
297
00:19:43.380 --> 00:19:54.560
swing and try to get back to where we were right there so yeah so go ahead and
298
00:19:54.560 --> 00:19:55.020
so how
299
00:19:55.020 --> 00:19:58.400
can we keep this close and not let it rotate over you're gonna have to move
300
00:19:58.400 --> 00:19:59.100
this a little
301
00:19:59.100 --> 00:20:04.900
bit more okay extend it almost like a little bit of the negative tourism thing
302
00:20:04.900 --> 00:20:05.820
okay go
303
00:20:05.820 --> 00:20:16.500
ahead better better good okay now try to do that
304
00:20:16.500 --> 00:20:40.100
that feel aggressive okay do you want to try one more left arm or you want to
305
00:20:40.100 --> 00:20:40.340
go right
306
00:20:40.340 --> 00:21:01.140
to both hands you're the CEO okay so make a right hand backswing freeze put
307
00:21:01.140 --> 00:21:01.460
your left
308
00:21:01.460 --> 00:21:06.040
hand on take your right hand off what's different there is that way bigger the
309
00:21:06.040 --> 00:21:08.140
length of swing
310
00:21:08.140 --> 00:21:19.700
yeah okay is it higher is it more closed is it something different okay so the
311
00:21:19.700 --> 00:21:20.300
the tendency
312
00:21:20.300 --> 00:21:23.420
what it looks like on the left hand is the body doesn't really do much so it
313
00:21:23.420 --> 00:21:23.860
kind of
314
00:21:23.860 --> 00:21:28.410
it's short and then it has to like really pull and so the first one was a
315
00:21:28.410 --> 00:21:28.860
little bit
316
00:21:28.860 --> 00:21:34.240
better when you did that or that that first good one yeah you had a little bit
317
00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:34.820
more of
318
00:21:34.820 --> 00:21:38.420
movement of the body both directions and then that second one was kind of short
319
00:21:38.420 --> 00:21:38.580
so
320
00:21:38.580 --> 00:21:43.130
then you started to feel like you had to pull it so in order to keep it kind of
321
00:21:43.130 --> 00:21:43.300
more
322
00:21:43.300 --> 00:21:46.080
neutral on the way through I think you're gonna have to feel a little bit more
323
00:21:46.080 --> 00:21:46.380
in the
324
00:21:46.380 --> 00:21:56.780
backswing yeah exactly just to kind of get a measurement
325
00:21:56.780 --> 00:22:04.290
of about how big of a swing you're gonna take good yep and now come through
326
00:22:04.290 --> 00:22:04.300
feeling
327
00:22:04.300 --> 00:22:11.780
that connected feel so come through to your finish that's okay
328
00:22:11.780 --> 00:22:33.980
good that's like a matter okay left hand only go ahead set up the ball so we're
329
00:22:33.980 --> 00:22:38.530
gonna focus on this space here and turning a little bit more here into the
330
00:22:38.530 --> 00:22:39.020
finish so
331
00:22:39.020 --> 00:22:47.820
we're gonna turn a little bit more here into the backswing or tilting yeah yeah
332
00:22:47.820 --> 00:22:54.620
so it still
333
00:22:54.620 --> 00:23:00.690
has a little bit of that excel over acceleration right okay we're gonna come
334
00:23:00.690 --> 00:23:01.460
back to it so I
335
00:23:01.460 --> 00:23:06.900
did say one of the one of the comments was about teaching like rhythm tempo
336
00:23:06.900 --> 00:23:07.380
because a
337
00:23:07.380 --> 00:23:11.920
lot of golfers that struggle with distance control tend to struggle with like
338
00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:12.140
rate of
339
00:23:12.140 --> 00:23:18.370
acceleration typically like short back fast through or or short long or slow
340
00:23:18.370 --> 00:23:20.340
fast right
341
00:23:20.340 --> 00:23:25.660
so whether you're so some of the ways to teach tempo are more kind of like
342
00:23:25.660 --> 00:23:27.380
counting rhythm
343
00:23:27.380 --> 00:23:31.930
one two metronome you've probably tried some of those not everyone gravitates
344
00:23:31.930 --> 00:23:32.500
toward those
345
00:23:32.500 --> 00:23:37.040
that's definitely like probably my first option but second is gonna be more
346
00:23:37.040 --> 00:23:38.260
feel okay
347
00:23:38.260 --> 00:23:45.770
so uh can I borrow putter real quick all right so hold the putter like this all
348
00:23:45.770 --> 00:23:46.820
right so
349
00:23:46.820 --> 00:23:52.070
like catching an egg don't let it break okay so you're gonna toss it up and you
350
00:23:52.070 --> 00:23:52.300
're gonna
351
00:23:52.300 --> 00:24:06.040
try to catch it sure little bit inch oh you broke the egg go longer like how
352
00:24:06.040 --> 00:24:06.140
how far
353
00:24:06.140 --> 00:24:15.690
can you go down with it good let it drop a little more you're kind of catching
354
00:24:15.690 --> 00:24:15.980
it too
355
00:24:15.980 --> 00:24:23.540
hard go fast like drop with it I know I know you gotta you gotta soften that
356
00:24:23.540 --> 00:24:24.420
impact there
357
00:24:24.420 --> 00:24:38.880
you go good good okay that was a good squat but you can do it without like yep
358
00:24:38.880 --> 00:24:40.660
so now
359
00:24:40.660 --> 00:24:43.570
you feel on the way down how your putter in your arms are kind of moving at the
360
00:24:43.570 --> 00:24:43.940
same
361
00:24:43.940 --> 00:24:49.220
speed okay can you imagine how you would basically like bring it back and then
362
00:24:49.220 --> 00:24:49.980
the arms and the
363
00:24:49.980 --> 00:24:54.530
putter are basically dropping it about the same speed from here through to
364
00:24:54.530 --> 00:24:55.060
there instead
365
00:24:55.060 --> 00:25:01.900
of going sh instead of basically like pushing it up that makes sense okay so
366
00:25:01.900 --> 00:25:03.100
now we won't
367
00:25:03.100 --> 00:25:08.250
do it the combo of just the lead arm so put both hands on the club and now let
368
00:25:08.250 --> 00:25:08.860
's see if
369
00:25:08.860 --> 00:25:12.940
we can get a little bit more of this feel of a certain length of backswing and
370
00:25:12.940 --> 00:25:13.540
then the
371
00:25:13.540 --> 00:25:21.670
egg drop feel down through impact while turning your body through got it it's
372
00:25:21.670 --> 00:25:21.940
gonna have to
373
00:25:21.940 --> 00:25:25.030
go you're gonna need more momentum at the top of the swing in order to let it
374
00:25:25.030 --> 00:25:25.500
drop so
375
00:25:25.500 --> 00:25:37.980
it's gonna have to go back a little faster better that was better ready drop
376
00:25:37.980 --> 00:25:38.500
and sometimes
377
00:25:38.500 --> 00:25:42.510
to exaggerate it I'll do the little catch so go ahead and bring it back and
378
00:25:42.510 --> 00:25:43.220
drop we're
379
00:25:43.220 --> 00:25:51.350
gonna play catch drop it more pop so if it's dropping when would it reach its
380
00:25:51.350 --> 00:25:52.460
fastest speed
381
00:25:52.460 --> 00:25:59.970
at impact and when would it reach its fastest acceleration right does it starts
382
00:25:59.970 --> 00:26:00.740
that yeah
383
00:26:00.740 --> 00:26:13.000
so it's gonna go okay better better better you know what's coming you're
384
00:26:13.000 --> 00:26:13.460
pulling away
385
00:26:13.460 --> 00:26:24.200
a little bit here you drop into me more earlier earlier and then slower there
386
00:26:24.200 --> 00:26:25.220
you go like
387
00:26:25.220 --> 00:26:35.680
let it drop do it again better better better better keep going yeah the ball is
388
00:26:35.680 --> 00:26:36.420
just there
389
00:26:36.420 --> 00:26:51.020
drop drop good ready do you feel how that stopped yeah like you stop myself but
390
00:26:51.020 --> 00:26:51.440
so did
391
00:26:51.440 --> 00:26:59.570
you feel the acceleration okay so now on your own perfect so now on your own go
392
00:26:59.570 --> 00:27:00.380
ahead and
393
00:27:00.380 --> 00:27:06.620
make a stroke or you're gonna feel that that kind of egg drop pop on the way
394
00:27:06.620 --> 00:27:07.480
through a
395
00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:16.740
little more so keep this connection so the drop is kind of go ahead feel that
396
00:27:16.740 --> 00:27:19.120
ready drop
397
00:27:19.120 --> 00:27:23.650
feel it ready drop okay set up to the ball I'm gonna do one with you and then
398
00:27:23.650 --> 00:27:23.740
you'll
399
00:27:23.740 --> 00:27:47.500
do it on your ready drop ready drop better yeah like different like way better
400
00:27:47.500 --> 00:27:48.200
so I'll
401
00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:55.710
use that that drop feel I'll use pull the putter upside down mmm yep other
402
00:27:55.710 --> 00:27:57.040
upside down
403
00:27:57.040 --> 00:28:03.040
but at the top here so I'll put put my hands on and basically say like okay
404
00:28:03.040 --> 00:28:04.860
this would have
405
00:28:04.860 --> 00:28:10.340
that drop feel feel that yeah the only problem with this model is I don't want
406
00:28:10.340 --> 00:28:11.280
the wrist moving
407
00:28:11.280 --> 00:28:16.860
this much so in the model your arms are part of this drop right and what I tend
408
00:28:16.860 --> 00:28:17.440
to see
409
00:28:17.440 --> 00:28:25.170
with yours so relax that yeah so what I mean like feel it through the hands but
410
00:28:25.170 --> 00:28:25.880
when we
411
00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:28.320
do it in the putting stroke it would be all the way up to the shoulders but in
412
00:28:28.320 --> 00:28:28.720
this little
413
00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:32.440
drill where you can just keep that there and just do it at the wrist but what I
414
00:28:32.440 --> 00:28:32.840
tend to
415
00:28:32.840 --> 00:28:38.470
see with yours is a little bit more so this would be applying speed early and
416
00:28:38.470 --> 00:28:39.400
that would
417
00:28:39.400 --> 00:28:50.020
be applying speed late yes so instead that's okay yep that's okay yep got that
418
00:28:50.020 --> 00:28:50.760
feel okay
419
00:28:50.760 --> 00:28:54.950
so now put both hands on the club and make a stroke where you're gonna feel the
420
00:28:54.950 --> 00:28:55.360
speed
421
00:28:55.360 --> 00:29:04.190
right where I did and then it's basically going to just kind of drop yep that's
422
00:29:04.190 --> 00:29:04.560
kind
423
00:29:04.560 --> 00:29:12.640
of pushed meaning I think you're respecting my foot instead of it kind of going
424
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:12.640
like
425
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:20.980
this it was more like moving the whole whole putter instead of just letting it
426
00:29:20.980 --> 00:29:21.280
letting
427
00:29:21.280 --> 00:29:37.280
it drop better yep good go ahead better to swing back and forth one two one two
428
00:29:37.280 --> 00:29:37.880
good
429
00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:48.390
tempo and you keep that going for a minute keep going keep it going close your
430
00:29:48.390 --> 00:29:49.200
eyes keep
431
00:29:49.200 --> 00:30:00.110
it going keep your eyes closed what did that feel like what about tempo did I
432
00:30:00.110 --> 00:30:00.920
feel smooth
433
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:07.210
did it feel more like continuous or did it doesn't have this drop feel what's
434
00:30:07.210 --> 00:30:08.560
it now
435
00:30:08.560 --> 00:30:24.640
try to recreate that whatever that feel was yeah exactly okay there you go yeah
436
00:30:24.640 --> 00:30:25.360
that's
437
00:30:25.360 --> 00:30:30.760
the where the descriptions become really wild yeah but but you can see so that
438
00:30:30.760 --> 00:30:31.600
's how for
439
00:30:31.600 --> 00:30:35.560
someone who has distance control problems I usually work through now I thought
440
00:30:35.560 --> 00:30:36.000
we were
441
00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:40.990
gonna do mostly left arm right arm only but it looked like the acceleration
442
00:30:40.990 --> 00:30:41.760
rate was the
443
00:30:41.760 --> 00:30:51.930
bigger issue yeah that's a good matter I feel like a whole different activity
444
00:30:51.930 --> 00:30:52.440
do you
445
00:30:52.440 --> 00:31:09.920
want to try any of those as invisible or you just want like grab a putter so so
446
00:31:09.920 --> 00:31:10.480
here
447
00:31:10.480 --> 00:31:15.550
this is a really easy so sometimes I'll do it this way as well if I if I went
448
00:31:15.550 --> 00:31:16.680
pendulum
449
00:31:16.680 --> 00:31:22.910
if I just let it drop then when is it gonna reach maximum acceleration as it
450
00:31:22.910 --> 00:31:24.260
hits or sorry
451
00:31:24.260 --> 00:31:29.300
maximum speed as it hits me I'm not slowing it down some people will kind of do
452
00:31:29.300 --> 00:31:30.960
that right
453
00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:38.470
so so hers was more like right so I was trying to get it a little faster and
454
00:31:38.470 --> 00:31:39.720
then if it has
455
00:31:39.720 --> 00:31:44.270
this dead movement here then basically I can kind of like go like this but if
456
00:31:44.270 --> 00:31:45.120
she's rapidly
457
00:31:45.120 --> 00:31:49.670
accelerating it then she'll push into me and I won't be able to push it back so
458
00:31:49.670 --> 00:31:50.200
I'm trying
459
00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:59.900
to get yeah so watch yeah so go ahead and grip it yeah nope don't slow down
460
00:31:59.900 --> 00:32:01.720
into me like
461
00:32:01.720 --> 00:32:12.920
smack drop it into me more so it'll have okay yeah don't be scared of me it's
462
00:32:12.920 --> 00:32:13.640
not gonna
463
00:32:13.640 --> 00:32:26.550
hurt good okay and now yeah good feel that do you feel this the pace and the
464
00:32:26.550 --> 00:32:27.840
speed so
465
00:32:27.840 --> 00:32:33.150
that's remember like repetitive movements is one way to get the core involved
466
00:32:33.150 --> 00:32:33.640
and in
467
00:32:33.640 --> 00:32:38.610
this it's more like the shoulder core but it's still kind of a core so that's
468
00:32:38.610 --> 00:32:41.040
what we did
469
00:32:41.040 --> 00:32:44.700
do you want to try those as partners you can work on that that's a fun one the
470
00:32:44.700 --> 00:32:44.960
kind
471
00:32:44.960 --> 00:32:53.790
of like the catch this one is easy to do on your own I teach that as a tempo
472
00:32:53.790 --> 00:32:54.120
drill she's
473
00:32:54.120 --> 00:32:57.780
now an expert so if you have any questions you can ask Adrian she's our she's
474
00:32:57.780 --> 00:32:58.320
our tempo
475
00:32:58.320 --> 00:33:07.150
queen yeah I think you were saying at one point pressure on this hand pull in
476
00:33:07.150 --> 00:33:10.480
this way in this hand ball that way to prevent the full
477
00:33:10.480 --> 00:33:14.240
crumb from that in here that's one thing and then the other thing was as
478
00:33:14.240 --> 00:33:18.610
putting really well this year and the left the handle coming up and the head is
479
00:33:18.610 --> 00:33:22.640
going down the line and then the third thing was I was really like I was just
480
00:33:22.640 --> 00:33:26.640
interacting with my left side and then they can track it on the right side of
481
00:33:26.640 --> 00:33:38.420
those. Yeah yeah no no let me check on time um okay thank you no so I'll
482
00:33:38.420 --> 00:33:39.120
comment on that
483
00:33:39.120 --> 00:33:54.380
he's still trying to hit the environment environment bring that knowledge over
484
00:33:54.380 --> 00:34:04.360
here for some it's a home run for some it's a foul ball okay that's why you
485
00:34:04.360 --> 00:34:07.120
need of like I start with metronome but for
486
00:34:07.120 --> 00:34:13.710
feel players the metronome doesn't always land so she kind of she has more of
487
00:34:13.710 --> 00:34:18.360
the feel traits so I thought that she would resonate with that and she did
488
00:34:18.360 --> 00:34:21.120
pretty well for that like you're catching the
489
00:34:21.120 --> 00:34:34.320
ball yeah yeah yes so if you were like overly accelerating like try to really
490
00:34:34.320 --> 00:34:40.120
exactly see how like I try to push you back and it doesn't go anywhere okay
491
00:34:40.120 --> 00:34:49.120
yeah that's where you're coaching about to get to the point that you're
492
00:34:49.120 --> 00:34:53.920
correct that it's like accelerating smoothly to that point and then when I move
493
00:34:53.920 --> 00:34:58.480
it out of the way they feel like it's a shorter follow through because it like
494
00:34:58.480 --> 00:35:03.580
hit the ball and like already reached a maximum where when they're used to like
495
00:35:03.580 --> 00:35:06.120
pushing it past they have a lot of speed going
496
00:35:06.120 --> 00:35:13.630
through there they carry them into a fuller finish she was getting too much
497
00:35:13.630 --> 00:35:26.640
anticipation of hitting the ball so I had her close your eyes okay it elevates
498
00:35:26.640 --> 00:35:33.120
the feel like dramatically I forget the numbers but it's like it's like
499
00:35:33.120 --> 00:35:33.120
dramatically
500
00:35:33.120 --> 00:35:39.120
he also worked with Sergio Sergio one of us hitting every part with his eyes
501
00:35:39.120 --> 00:35:59.120
really yes I hadn't heard that yes there's my normal shirt okay not bad
502
00:35:59.120 --> 00:36:09.550
much just try to match yeah exactly am I applying too much acceleration or no
503
00:36:09.550 --> 00:36:18.470
no you're doing okay nothing I would say potentially it's a let me I'm getting
504
00:36:18.470 --> 00:36:21.120
blocked by my hat
505
00:36:21.120 --> 00:36:27.120
yeah you're good there's a little bit like I think you got a little bit too
506
00:36:27.120 --> 00:36:31.610
much kind of arm play like it feels like the grip is moving too horizontally
507
00:36:31.610 --> 00:36:38.120
through there if I was like picking on stroke things it would probably be
508
00:36:38.120 --> 00:36:58.360
ready okay what does that feel like yeah this is me and Pierre yeah yeah yes
509
00:36:58.360 --> 00:37:04.520
that's kind of what it felt like yeah yeah so it'll have kind of like a more
510
00:37:04.520 --> 00:37:07.120
like compact or kind of tight look
511
00:37:07.120 --> 00:37:14.630
um show me which one you're not the same putter I know you mean this one yes
512
00:37:14.630 --> 00:37:28.120
okay okay he wants the full street unit too slow I don't have to accelerate you
513
00:37:28.120 --> 00:37:36.120
earlier
514
00:37:36.120 --> 00:37:44.900
what you think it's a little too too fast too late what what you mean by too
515
00:37:44.900 --> 00:37:56.960
fast too late hold the putter like this close your eyes what does that feel
516
00:37:56.960 --> 00:38:00.510
like the putter swinging compared to what you're doing what you're doing was
517
00:38:00.510 --> 00:38:01.120
more like this right
518
00:38:01.120 --> 00:38:07.280
for us yeah okay okay instead if you're gonna add speed it's right here it's
519
00:38:07.280 --> 00:38:28.120
right there okay that's important yeah perfect thank you better
520
00:38:28.120 --> 00:38:50.640
how's it going okay I think you can use the single arm as a like a training
521
00:38:50.640 --> 00:38:57.120
like that's one of your your barometers okay so I wanted to talk about two fun
522
00:38:57.120 --> 00:38:57.120
topics
523
00:38:57.120 --> 00:39:02.640
one was the grip there was a question about kind of like pressure points that I
524
00:39:02.640 --> 00:39:12.360
like to see and then two we have a brave soul who he's putting that way we'll
525
00:39:12.360 --> 00:39:16.120
get that first let me talk about the grip and then we'll we'll bring in
526
00:39:16.120 --> 00:39:23.050
okay so let me borrow the putter so your students will always ask kind of like
527
00:39:23.050 --> 00:39:29.870
what's the perfect grip going back to my analogy of like as long as like
528
00:39:29.870 --> 00:39:34.390
holding the paintbrush in the right way as long as you have control of it it's
529
00:39:34.390 --> 00:39:36.120
not twisting like it's probably okay
530
00:39:36.120 --> 00:39:41.080
the way I explained it with putting is if you if you held your hands like this
531
00:39:41.080 --> 00:39:46.280
kind of in a prayer position you could apply even pressure from all the fingers
532
00:39:46.280 --> 00:39:51.120
it'll be really easy to not move the wrist especially if you added a little bit
533
00:39:51.120 --> 00:39:55.120
of ulnar deviation can you feel that and I'll have them do that
534
00:39:55.120 --> 00:39:59.220
like okay if you just rock back and forth can you feel how your wrist aren't
535
00:39:59.220 --> 00:40:03.950
really moving and then I'll ask like how's that feel compared to your putting
536
00:40:03.950 --> 00:40:08.360
the left because it's like no it's all it's all this stuff I'm like okay well
537
00:40:08.360 --> 00:40:14.120
the challenge is the way we grip the club unless you do that new that new grip
538
00:40:14.120 --> 00:40:17.990
the way we grip the club your hands are kind of offset right so you need to
539
00:40:17.990 --> 00:40:22.250
have more or less like opposing pressure points in order to have control the
540
00:40:22.250 --> 00:40:26.120
putter and ideally they go through like the middle of the putter shaft
541
00:40:26.120 --> 00:40:32.080
so the conventional grip the classic grip when you take it is basically the the
542
00:40:32.080 --> 00:40:37.950
middle of the palm of the right hand this is called the capitate joint where
543
00:40:37.950 --> 00:40:43.120
you can close that's going to go up against the index finger of the middle
544
00:40:43.120 --> 00:40:43.120
finger
545
00:40:43.120 --> 00:40:48.210
or like the first knuckle of the middle finger sorry not the index finger so
546
00:40:48.210 --> 00:40:52.450
that's going to be there I have a little bit of pressure there and then the
547
00:40:52.450 --> 00:40:57.120
index finger of the lead hand is either going to go up against the ring finger
548
00:40:57.120 --> 00:41:01.120
of the trail hand or the middle finger of the trail hand kind of like this
549
00:41:01.120 --> 00:41:06.670
so I now have to there to there and those are providing a little bit of
550
00:41:06.670 --> 00:41:12.430
pressure against each other so now they're not moving just like I was doing
551
00:41:12.430 --> 00:41:17.120
with the even pressure point so I'll I'll often demonstrate like if you could
552
00:41:17.120 --> 00:41:21.300
design like it doesn't even have to be pretty I'll come up with a new one kind
553
00:41:21.300 --> 00:41:22.120
of every time I do this
554
00:41:22.120 --> 00:41:26.920
there I have two pressure above two pressure below and I'm kind of feeling that
555
00:41:26.920 --> 00:41:31.080
connection there I could make a stroke where the putter doesn't really twist
556
00:41:31.080 --> 00:41:34.120
and I'd have pretty decent putter face control doing that
557
00:41:34.120 --> 00:41:45.310
so whether people are cross handed or claw or conventional or like I said that
558
00:41:45.310 --> 00:41:50.000
that new grip the whole goal is to basically create a situation where you have
559
00:41:50.000 --> 00:41:53.120
these pressure points helping stabilize the wrist
560
00:41:53.120 --> 00:42:00.290
so common ways that you would have it would be if like if you're too much down
561
00:42:00.290 --> 00:42:06.670
in the fingers then you're pushing usually above the shaft that's why we want
562
00:42:06.670 --> 00:42:11.390
it in the palm because if I push through the middle then the putter face doesn
563
00:42:11.390 --> 00:42:14.830
't really twist if I pushed on the top it would twist it that way if I push too
564
00:42:14.830 --> 00:42:18.490
much on the bottom it would twist it that way so when I'm pushing against the
565
00:42:18.490 --> 00:42:21.120
putter I basically want to be pushing through the center of the shaft
566
00:42:21.120 --> 00:42:26.180
and so the danger with it getting too much on top is I push on top of it and it
567
00:42:26.180 --> 00:42:27.120
twists a lot
568
00:42:27.120 --> 00:42:34.040
that makes sense okay so that was putter now brave soul he said well this stuff
569
00:42:34.040 --> 00:42:38.120
work with me basically because I'm side-staddle with a long putter
570
00:42:38.120 --> 00:42:42.670
right is that fair okay and that's going to open us up to a more fun
571
00:42:42.670 --> 00:42:45.120
conversation and why do you put side-saddle
572
00:42:45.120 --> 00:42:51.960
all right so what do we do with the golfers with the yips you can make you can
573
00:42:51.960 --> 00:42:56.120
make big changes what did you say don't look
574
00:42:56.120 --> 00:43:03.190
so come on over here he's still gonna probably you're still probably gonna put
575
00:43:03.190 --> 00:43:08.920
a long putter but and this and this might not work but is it worse on long put
576
00:43:08.920 --> 00:43:10.120
ts or short putts
577
00:43:10.120 --> 00:43:18.550
everything well I haven't putted this way in a long time maybe it's gone maybe
578
00:43:18.550 --> 00:43:22.870
it's gone let's see if I have to take a few practice here so that will make it
579
00:43:22.870 --> 00:43:23.120
worse right
580
00:43:23.120 --> 00:43:42.120
yeah he made it but we can see a little wobble there right it was a wobble so
581
00:43:42.120 --> 00:43:48.670
you made it though it wasn't too bad okay so now we're going to try to take out
582
00:43:48.670 --> 00:43:49.120
some of that wobble
583
00:43:49.120 --> 00:43:55.640
now how are we going to take out the wobble this is where it's like a little
584
00:43:55.640 --> 00:44:02.120
bit more I would say advanced anatomy we're gonna try to create more like
585
00:44:02.120 --> 00:44:07.900
special tension through the whole unit rather than just using pressure to hold
586
00:44:07.900 --> 00:44:15.170
the putter face still make sense the whole unit the whole unit the whole arm
587
00:44:15.170 --> 00:44:20.200
okay so go ahead and take your grip and now I'm going to try to move the putter
588
00:44:20.200 --> 00:44:21.120
don't let me
589
00:44:21.120 --> 00:44:26.650
and I'm just moving it in different directions just to feel where slack is but
590
00:44:26.650 --> 00:44:35.120
mostly in twisting okay nope you're good it's not too bad a little bit that way
591
00:44:35.120 --> 00:44:41.610
that's better okay so now if I go to move this where do you feel like you're
592
00:44:41.610 --> 00:44:44.120
controlling it more with the right hand more with the left hand
593
00:44:44.120 --> 00:44:52.220
left okay so with the right we're gonna try I want you to spiral this outward
594
00:44:52.220 --> 00:44:56.970
just a little bit so you're gonna feel like you turn your forearm one way in
595
00:44:56.970 --> 00:45:03.870
the elbow the opposite and now yeah so we're gonna bring this out and now pull
596
00:45:03.870 --> 00:45:06.120
this arm a little bit in front of your body
597
00:45:06.120 --> 00:45:11.700
yes less less because you lost the rotation this now pull it in front of your
598
00:45:11.700 --> 00:45:19.280
body perfect feel that you're pulling it this way correct okay so like that and
599
00:45:19.280 --> 00:45:25.120
then like that yep now do the same thing with the left hand more in front
600
00:45:25.120 --> 00:45:29.110
so it might feel a little wider good you feel that a little wider a little bit
601
00:45:29.110 --> 00:45:33.250
more in front but not by losing the tension so you've still got the tension in
602
00:45:33.250 --> 00:45:39.580
the arms and then you're just kind of pulling the pecs in perfect okay and now
603
00:45:39.580 --> 00:45:40.120
bend over
604
00:45:40.120 --> 00:45:46.530
okay and now I want you to try to maintain that tension in especially that
605
00:45:46.530 --> 00:45:56.120
right arm and go ahead and make a stroke did it still twist no didn't twist
606
00:45:56.120 --> 00:46:00.610
yeah do it again so use that as the governor if you feel any twisting I want
607
00:46:00.610 --> 00:46:05.120
you to figure out how to create that tension and so basically
608
00:46:05.120 --> 00:46:10.560
the most common way would be turning the elbow out pointing that way and the
609
00:46:10.560 --> 00:46:16.460
forearm the opposite direction and then pulling the arm in front using kind of
610
00:46:16.460 --> 00:46:21.620
the shoulder so it has more of that look rather than just kind of like if I put
611
00:46:21.620 --> 00:46:24.120
the elbows in and there's all this like slack
612
00:46:24.120 --> 00:46:28.110
what'll happen is the yip is like a wave has been built and then it like
613
00:46:28.110 --> 00:46:32.950
crashes where if you create that tension now it's not really moving there's no
614
00:46:32.950 --> 00:46:34.120
alarm signals going off
615
00:46:34.120 --> 00:46:49.170
it doesn't always fix it but a lot of the time good now like I said you might
616
00:46:49.170 --> 00:46:56.610
still decide that you wanted to go with the long putter so go ahead and do it
617
00:46:56.610 --> 00:47:02.190
again and the other thing that can happen as it relates this is he's got a
618
00:47:02.190 --> 00:47:03.120
little bit more of kind of like that level shoulder shoulder shoulder shoulder
619
00:47:03.120 --> 00:47:03.120
shoulder.
620
00:47:03.120 --> 00:47:07.820
so so now you've got your arms locked in now I'm going to guide so that you can
621
00:47:07.820 --> 00:47:11.950
see from that side I'm going to guide a little bit more of the vertical
622
00:47:11.950 --> 00:47:20.460
shoulder movement go ahead what did that feel like much better yeah we got to
623
00:47:20.460 --> 00:47:23.400
work on putter face control a little bit if we're going to do that but that
624
00:47:23.400 --> 00:47:32.120
didn't feel yippy at all right no okay do that again
625
00:47:32.120 --> 00:47:40.950
felt some slack slap just to the end create the tension and vertical shoulder
626
00:47:40.950 --> 00:47:51.120
okay create the tension and then vertical shoulder good what did that feel like
627
00:47:51.120 --> 00:47:57.120
no wobble whatsoever it's very stable yeah so if I can relax
628
00:47:57.120 --> 00:48:04.630
yes so oftentimes the yip is like a like I said like a slack and then they're
629
00:48:04.630 --> 00:48:11.690
they're trying to use tension to like close the loop like I said not a hundred
630
00:48:11.690 --> 00:48:16.440
percent of time but you you'll also see that with like people who can't like
631
00:48:16.440 --> 00:48:21.110
roll the ball that's one of those classic tests of like well if you like twist
632
00:48:21.110 --> 00:48:25.400
the shoulder and create stability and then just kind of let go oftentimes it
633
00:48:25.400 --> 00:48:26.120
helps clean
634
00:48:26.120 --> 00:48:31.710
up some of that like twist sideways feel so it can be trained or it can be
635
00:48:31.710 --> 00:48:39.470
avoided often if if I'm really lazy I'll go for the claw which works really
636
00:48:39.470 --> 00:48:43.670
well for a lot of people and I'll often use that as a for people who tend to
637
00:48:43.670 --> 00:48:48.120
like really open the putter face with the right arm
638
00:48:48.120 --> 00:48:52.980
for summary like for facial reasons it's kind of like already twisted like we
639
00:48:52.980 --> 00:48:57.500
were trying to do you don't have to fight it quite so much at the risk like you
640
00:48:57.500 --> 00:49:06.120
don't have to turn the form as much so it tends to work pretty well
641
00:49:06.120 --> 00:49:12.640
yes it doesn't that doesn't go up the elbow very easily so that would stabilize
642
00:49:12.640 --> 00:49:17.030
the wrist but I could still have like a shoulder type yip where when I go that
643
00:49:17.030 --> 00:49:17.120
way like
644
00:49:17.120 --> 00:49:25.290
it's not going to move very much any questions about that the only point I
645
00:49:25.290 --> 00:49:30.170
would make is to give this tone involuntary it's like I don't can't control
646
00:49:30.170 --> 00:49:32.120
what it happens
647
00:49:32.120 --> 00:49:37.750
yes just every note that yeah yeah it's not like I'm trying to do it well known
648
00:49:37.750 --> 00:49:41.760
I mean and when I say that you're trying to do it I don't mean you're
649
00:49:41.760 --> 00:49:42.120
voluntarily trying to do it
650
00:49:42.120 --> 00:49:49.630
a true yip like a true neurological dysfunction is environment independent
651
00:49:49.630 --> 00:49:56.120
meaning if you have the yips they should show up equally in your living room by
652
00:49:56.120 --> 00:50:01.120
yourself as Sunday in a match against your buddies
653
00:50:01.120 --> 00:50:06.850
but if they show up more likely when you are nervous or stressed then now we're
654
00:50:06.850 --> 00:50:13.780
talking about more of a stress induced kind of like spasm not a neurological y
655
00:50:13.780 --> 00:50:14.120
ip
656
00:50:14.120 --> 00:50:19.510
and so part of what will take away some of that spasm is creating more of this
657
00:50:19.510 --> 00:50:27.120
like stable facial tension
658
00:50:27.120 --> 00:50:37.390
so yeah so index finger of the lead hand that knuckle up against the capitate
659
00:50:37.390 --> 00:50:43.120
right there and then index finger of the lead hand on the
660
00:50:43.120 --> 00:50:55.440
one of these two knuckles here there's a little yeah there's just a little bit
661
00:50:55.440 --> 00:50:59.120
of tension in those two
662
00:50:59.120 --> 00:51:12.170
so then the like the wrist and the forearms aren't going to move a whole lot
663
00:51:12.170 --> 00:51:15.120
and then the stroke
664
00:51:15.120 --> 00:51:22.590
I was probably somewhere else I could see like potentially if you're pulling
665
00:51:22.590 --> 00:51:28.120
apart in an attempt to get your back like in an attempt to get your shoulders
666
00:51:28.120 --> 00:51:39.080
more engaged but I would rather have like the the pressure twisting in as far
667
00:51:39.080 --> 00:51:42.120
as the arms and hands
668
00:51:42.120 --> 00:51:55.240
like because I can make it two out of three five footers no probably not so
669
00:51:55.240 --> 00:51:59.490
hold it out there now pull your elbow pull your arm in front of your peck a
670
00:51:59.490 --> 00:52:01.120
little bit there you go
671
00:52:01.120 --> 00:52:05.670
now now you can feel if you try to move anything in your arm it all moves
672
00:52:05.670 --> 00:52:11.120
together go ahead feel that and the other the other thing is when you when you
673
00:52:11.120 --> 00:52:15.800
if you get comfortable and like at first it's like this right but as it gets as
674
00:52:15.800 --> 00:52:24.120
it gets comfortable like there so now I'll do this go ahead move my arm
675
00:52:24.120 --> 00:52:28.670
can you feel how like doesn't have a whole lot of tension but has a lot of
676
00:52:28.670 --> 00:52:31.120
stability compared to this
677
00:52:31.120 --> 00:52:37.410
yeah like this is way more yip prone when there's like it's like flopping
678
00:52:37.410 --> 00:52:44.170
around wherever well it was it's just kind of like subtle it's like twisting it
679
00:52:44.170 --> 00:52:45.120
like this
680
00:52:45.120 --> 00:52:52.630
here's the here's another one here's this I call it a stupid human trick so if
681
00:52:52.630 --> 00:52:58.170
you bring your arm up okay first one don't move your elbow turn palm up palm
682
00:52:58.170 --> 00:53:00.120
down
683
00:53:00.120 --> 00:53:13.870
okay now don't move your palm turn elbow up elbow down so basically this one
684
00:53:13.870 --> 00:53:17.750
when you turn elbow up if your palm didn't move you rotated the forearm in the
685
00:53:17.750 --> 00:53:22.120
opposite direction that's pretty much what it feels like there
686
00:53:22.120 --> 00:53:29.630
and it's very subtle so if you watch the elbow there's no tension there it's
687
00:53:29.630 --> 00:53:36.910
locked in so again that's where I don't know how well that would show up on a 3
688
00:53:36.910 --> 00:53:37.120
d
689
00:53:37.120 --> 00:53:46.760
uh-huh yeah yeah yeah well that's to here it would be like just disconnected
690
00:53:46.760 --> 00:53:52.320
there so now if I bring it in and then I could even like bend the arms and
691
00:53:52.320 --> 00:53:54.120
create some of that tension
692
00:53:54.120 --> 00:54:01.610
but the goal is to have it similar to how Stan says he wants you to use your
693
00:54:01.610 --> 00:54:10.120
wrist without looking wristy I want tension without you looking tense
694
00:54:10.120 --> 00:54:22.360
see how like it looks very stable you're welcome questions on putting green
695
00:54:22.360 --> 00:54:37.120
reading green reading
696
00:54:37.120 --> 00:54:47.360
why now I teach that every putt is a straight putt your whole goal like I'll
697
00:54:47.360 --> 00:54:53.120
basically say the process of putting is I'm always trying to roll a putt
698
00:54:53.120 --> 00:54:56.770
straight at a specific speed and then I'm going to use green reading and then
699
00:54:56.770 --> 00:55:00.120
alignment to aim where that straight putt is
700
00:55:00.120 --> 00:55:05.080
does that make sense so like you know I'll see people like hit a putt and then
701
00:55:05.080 --> 00:55:10.350
they'll like start trying to guide the face I'm like your feet didn't move how
702
00:55:10.350 --> 00:55:15.120
are you adjusting your putt they're like well I was close in the face
703
00:55:15.120 --> 00:55:19.670
like no you're gonna make the same stroke and if you don't like it you're gonna
704
00:55:19.670 --> 00:55:24.260
move your feet to change your alignment you're gonna you're not going to change
705
00:55:24.260 --> 00:55:32.600
the stroke so I personally wouldn't be a does I mean you're gonna like try and
706
00:55:32.600 --> 00:55:34.120
hook it when you have the other way
707
00:55:34.120 --> 00:55:39.120
when it's a left or right you hook it and when it's a right to left you cut it
708
00:55:39.120 --> 00:55:47.170
so you can take a more aggressive line. Did you come up with that? Yeah yeah
709
00:55:47.170 --> 00:55:54.120
innovative let me know how that goes what
710
00:55:54.120 --> 00:56:13.150
Stockton teaches that? Stockton teaches that? I guess I did. So no I didn't
711
00:56:13.150 --> 00:56:17.120
come up with it. Okay. I came up with it for me. Gotcha.
712
00:56:17.120 --> 00:56:28.390
Any any other questions on putting? I think there's a pretty big range from on
713
00:56:28.390 --> 00:56:35.200
top like eyes in line to a good amount in. I don't like them outside. I think
714
00:56:35.200 --> 00:56:39.670
that when you start having yeah I don't like your eyes pass the ball but other
715
00:56:39.670 --> 00:56:41.120
than that I'm not too
716
00:56:41.120 --> 00:56:52.970
as like I think there's a slight advantage to having your eyes on because then
717
00:56:52.970 --> 00:57:00.120
you can have them track a little bit better but
718
00:57:00.120 --> 00:57:10.120
What do you think? Should we go look at wedge play? Do you want green reading?
719
00:57:10.120 --> 00:57:15.620
My real quick take on green reading would be you're either going to read it
720
00:57:15.620 --> 00:57:18.620
with your feet or with your like you're either going to read it with your
721
00:57:18.620 --> 00:57:20.120
balance and your body awareness or with your eyes
722
00:57:20.120 --> 00:57:26.330
But your whole goal is to evaluate the slope of the surface between you and the
723
00:57:26.330 --> 00:57:34.920
hole. Yes? Well that's if it's not a uniform slope if it's more like a potato
724
00:57:34.920 --> 00:57:39.480
chip then you have to like kind of infer that either by looking at it or by
725
00:57:39.480 --> 00:57:45.270
feeling it. If you're going to look at it your eyes are better at seeing like
726
00:57:45.270 --> 00:57:47.120
depth this way rather than this way.
727
00:57:47.120 --> 00:57:52.370
So you need multiple views right so you're either so from behind the ball you
728
00:57:52.370 --> 00:57:55.850
can see left to right or right to left and then you go to the low side because
729
00:57:55.850 --> 00:58:02.290
it's easier to see detail into the slope rather than looking down at it. So you
730
00:58:02.290 --> 00:58:05.120
go to the low side so then you can start to see
731
00:58:05.120 --> 00:58:09.890
High low or you know uphill downhill and then really if you're using your eyes
732
00:58:09.890 --> 00:58:14.760
you want to kind of gather information for the last four to six feet when the
733
00:58:14.760 --> 00:58:20.120
appearance of the break is more significant. If you're feeling it then you
734
00:58:20.120 --> 00:58:24.120
basically just kind of take multiple reads of the slope you have to calibrate
735
00:58:24.120 --> 00:58:28.510
that's what the aim point classes teach you how to do. If you're curious about
736
00:58:28.510 --> 00:58:31.120
that it's a real quick I would recommend just taking their class.
737
00:58:31.120 --> 00:58:35.080
And you read from behind the ball. If you're reading the slope then you read it
738
00:58:35.080 --> 00:58:41.880
in between yourself in between your ball and the whole kind of the middle. Yeah
739
00:58:41.880 --> 00:58:46.820
so am I. If you're reading with your feet like so if I'm reading this plot if I
740
00:58:46.820 --> 00:58:51.260
was doing it with my eyes I would look from here I would look from here and I
741
00:58:51.260 --> 00:58:55.110
would look from here. If I'm feeling it with my feet then I would basically
742
00:58:55.110 --> 00:58:57.120
feel it here.
743
00:58:57.120 --> 00:59:05.270
Okay so you're reading from back here. Yeah. And from down there. So that's the
744
00:59:05.270 --> 00:59:10.120
slope. Right. But for the break it's either here or over there. Okay.
745
00:59:10.120 --> 00:59:14.260
And that one over there is reading around the hole and this one is reading the
746
00:59:14.260 --> 00:59:22.160
first part. Primarily so for people who are more visual I would so let's say I
747
00:59:22.160 --> 00:59:24.120
'm here. Okay it's right to left.
748
00:59:24.120 --> 00:59:29.870
I'm here I know it's uphill. So now from behind the hole I'm trying to see I'm
749
00:59:29.870 --> 00:59:34.110
trying to visualize like the surface around the hole how it's going to be
750
00:59:34.110 --> 00:59:37.120
crossing like where it's going to cross the hole.
751
00:59:37.120 --> 00:59:42.070
And then from there I'm going to try to work my way back in visualizing the
752
00:59:42.070 --> 00:59:48.090
actual path of the club or path of the ball. And so then I'm back here and if I
753
00:59:48.090 --> 00:59:53.120
use like lining it up I'm going to basically line it up with what I just saw.
754
00:59:53.120 --> 01:00:01.950
And then I'm going to basically try and like replicate. Didn't hit it hard
755
01:00:01.950 --> 01:00:05.120
enough. Yeah. Okay.
756
01:00:05.120 --> 01:00:09.120
But so that's kind of like more of the visual. If you do more of the feel and
757
01:00:09.120 --> 01:00:13.230
the aim point the big thing for aim point is you have to be really accurate
758
01:00:13.230 --> 01:00:17.140
with feeling feel and you have to have a really good system for how far away
759
01:00:17.140 --> 01:00:19.120
you adjust holding your hand.
760
01:00:19.120 --> 01:00:24.120
If you get those two skills then you don't really have to visualize anything.
761
01:00:24.120 --> 01:00:31.160
So for some people you have to get really good at being able to accurately feel
762
01:00:31.160 --> 01:00:34.120
the slope and with your body.
763
01:00:34.120 --> 01:00:39.070
Yeah. And then you have to get really good at accurately being able to gauge
764
01:00:39.070 --> 01:00:43.820
how far away should you hold your hand in order to get an accurate read for you
765
01:00:43.820 --> 01:00:44.120
.
766
01:00:44.120 --> 01:01:00.630
That's what I mean by you have to have a system for how to adjust it. The
767
01:01:00.630 --> 01:01:03.120
faster the green the more you would hold it.
768
01:01:03.120 --> 01:01:08.800
Like this is one way. As you hold it closer this space would take up more space
769
01:01:08.800 --> 01:01:09.120
.
770
01:01:09.120 --> 01:01:13.010
So the faster the green the more it's going to break so you would hold it
771
01:01:13.010 --> 01:01:16.120
closer to you. The further.
772
01:01:16.120 --> 01:01:21.570
Yes. I would say if you're curious about that like they explain it really well
773
01:01:21.570 --> 01:01:23.120
in an aim point class.
774
01:01:23.120 --> 01:01:26.500
I think it's a good thing to know. I don't think everybody has to use it when
775
01:01:26.500 --> 01:01:29.120
they learn it but I think it's a good system to know.
776
01:01:29.120 --> 01:01:36.500
That's probably a good one. I mean I think they know the math so well they don
777
01:01:36.500 --> 01:01:38.120
't. They don't even use the thing because they might just go 13 feet at 2% slope
778
01:01:38.120 --> 01:01:38.120
.
779
01:01:38.120 --> 01:01:44.120
Green's 13 that's 13 inches. Yeah. So then they just know it would just be a
780
01:01:44.120 --> 01:01:47.120
math equation. No kidding.
1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.280
Okay, so I mentioned the shoulder tilt as one of my most comments.
2
00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:08.120
So go ahead and get set up.
3
00:00:08.120 --> 00:00:11.640
So shoulder tilt is basically I'm going to hit the putt for him.
4
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:14.400
All he has to do is hold on to the putter.
5
00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:17.870
So I'm going to put my hands kind of on the shoulders here and I'm kind of
6
00:00:17.870 --> 00:00:18.560
applying a
7
00:00:18.560 --> 00:00:23.120
little bit of pressure here to prevent his arms from doing too much.
8
00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:24.880
And then all right, you're going to help start it.
9
00:00:24.880 --> 00:00:25.880
Ready?
10
00:00:25.880 --> 00:00:26.880
Go ahead.
11
00:00:26.880 --> 00:00:29.880
What did that feel like?
12
00:00:29.880 --> 00:00:31.880
A little less handsy.
13
00:00:31.880 --> 00:00:32.880
Well less handsy.
14
00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:34.880
Want to do it again?
15
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:37.800
Well you know who taught me how to putter.
16
00:00:37.800 --> 00:00:38.800
What?
17
00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:39.800
No.
18
00:00:39.800 --> 00:00:40.800
Uh.
19
00:00:40.800 --> 00:00:41.800
Stand like brother.
20
00:00:41.800 --> 00:00:42.800
Okay.
21
00:00:42.800 --> 00:00:44.480
Well he says it.
22
00:00:44.480 --> 00:00:45.480
He says he's handsy.
23
00:00:45.480 --> 00:00:46.480
Yeah.
24
00:00:46.480 --> 00:00:48.280
But if you actually measure him he's not.
25
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:49.280
Okay.
26
00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:52.160
And the way I've heard him explain it is I want you to use your wrist.
27
00:00:52.160 --> 00:00:58.880
I don't want you to look look wristy.
28
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:00.400
And the stroke feels faster.
29
00:01:00.400 --> 00:01:01.880
And the stroke feels faster.
30
00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:02.880
Okay.
31
00:01:02.880 --> 00:01:08.360
So then so that's option one I actually think he's going to like the elbow
32
00:01:08.360 --> 00:01:09.360
support.
33
00:01:09.360 --> 00:01:12.200
So this one I'll either do from in front or behind.
34
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.760
I'll show you from behind because it'll be easier for you to see.
35
00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:17.880
So go ahead and get set up.
36
00:01:17.880 --> 00:01:23.940
So this is I'm now like I'm basically like yeah he can feel it but I'm
37
00:01:23.940 --> 00:01:25.480
basically like
38
00:01:25.480 --> 00:01:30.730
putting above and below so that I'm controlling this angle right and so now go
39
00:01:30.730 --> 00:01:31.560
ahead and make
40
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:32.920
that stroke.
41
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:36.720
What did that feel like?
42
00:01:36.720 --> 00:01:37.720
Hey.
43
00:01:37.720 --> 00:01:38.720
What?
44
00:01:38.720 --> 00:01:39.720
Okay.
45
00:01:39.720 --> 00:01:46.430
Anything feel different in the arms and like what we're actually we're more
46
00:01:46.430 --> 00:01:47.200
stable.
47
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:54.280
Okay.
48
00:01:54.280 --> 00:02:00.680
So I use that one a lot from the face on go ahead and do it.
49
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:03.880
You just have to like you know kind of get pretty close to their head.
50
00:02:03.880 --> 00:02:07.000
So it's not always as comfortable.
51
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.000
Go ahead.
52
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:14.560
And then I'll use like which grip do you prefer when I was behind or in front.
53
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:15.560
That one in front.
54
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:19.560
Everybody's a little different in what they like.
55
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:20.560
So that one's fun.
56
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:24.080
Do you look at the space of support and or why is it?
57
00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:29.330
So potentially if I'm analyzing the stroke these are I would say more of like
58
00:02:29.330 --> 00:02:29.840
how I'm
59
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:33.360
actually influencing I'm not really diagnosing the swing with this.
60
00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:38.760
I'm either assessing or guiding right.
61
00:02:38.760 --> 00:02:41.800
So then the resisted lower body is really easy.
62
00:02:41.800 --> 00:02:44.740
I'm just going to I'm going to place my hands on your pelvis and I'm going to
63
00:02:44.740 --> 00:02:45.200
prevent
64
00:02:45.200 --> 00:02:46.800
it from moving.
65
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:51.200
So I go ahead and make your stroke.
66
00:02:51.200 --> 00:02:55.240
That one didn't feel like I had to do much to him.
67
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:58.190
He doesn't really struggle with that problem but for the people who need that
68
00:02:58.190 --> 00:02:58.800
that'll that
69
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:02.000
will usually be a really big light bulb.
70
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:06.960
So we did the elbow support the tricep shoulder blade feel similar to what I
71
00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:07.800
was doing on
72
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:08.800
the front side.
73
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:12.990
But now if you look I'm going to place one hand on his shoulder blade one hand
74
00:03:12.990 --> 00:03:13.480
on his
75
00:03:13.480 --> 00:03:20.260
tricep and one hand or one part of the hand one finger shoulder blade tricep
76
00:03:20.260 --> 00:03:21.080
and then
77
00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:22.240
kind of on the deltoid.
78
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:31.210
So now I can guide the this whole kind of arm complex of that one feel compared
79
00:03:31.210 --> 00:03:31.600
to what
80
00:03:31.600 --> 00:03:36.150
about what about the stroke like this like compared to me in the front when I
81
00:03:36.150 --> 00:03:36.840
was holding
82
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:37.840
on.
83
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:53.600
I don't know because I left the base open.
84
00:03:53.600 --> 00:03:54.600
Okay.
85
00:03:54.600 --> 00:03:55.600
Like rocking.
86
00:03:55.600 --> 00:03:56.600
Yeah.
87
00:03:56.600 --> 00:03:57.600
Okay.
88
00:03:57.600 --> 00:04:02.280
And then the one I had in there so we got two more the guided putter strike.
89
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:11.080
This is usually I do this on like the five footers but so this one I'll often
90
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:11.600
do for
91
00:04:11.600 --> 00:04:15.600
kind of like helping them feel like if they have like a really rapid
92
00:04:15.600 --> 00:04:17.040
acceleration really
93
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:18.000
long follow through.
94
00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:19.000
All right.
95
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:20.240
So we're going to hit the stroke together.
96
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:23.760
You ready?
97
00:04:23.760 --> 00:04:28.310
So I'm able to kind of guide and sometimes I'll say if they're if they're
98
00:04:28.310 --> 00:04:28.960
really high
99
00:04:28.960 --> 00:04:32.240
handicap I'll just say let me hit the putt for you.
100
00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:36.170
So we want you to get decent at doing kind of like a good stroke on a reverse
101
00:04:36.170 --> 00:04:36.720
croquet
102
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:37.720
style.
103
00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:40.120
I've also seen that done.
104
00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:41.120
Yeah.
105
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:49.520
I feel like I can control it a lot more that way versus that way.
106
00:04:49.520 --> 00:04:55.190
And then the last one the one I showed there of the resisted flip is basically
107
00:04:55.190 --> 00:04:55.860
I'll put
108
00:04:55.860 --> 00:04:59.790
like stand up Lee has a drill where he puts a golf ball or you can use a tee or
109
00:04:59.790 --> 00:05:00.300
there's
110
00:05:00.300 --> 00:05:03.080
some other devices but I'll just put two fingers there and I'll apply a little
111
00:05:03.080 --> 00:05:04.460
bit of tension
112
00:05:04.460 --> 00:05:06.660
and then I'll keep it going.
113
00:05:06.660 --> 00:05:10.660
I'll kind of maintain that tension on the way through to take out.
114
00:05:10.660 --> 00:05:12.460
It stops this.
115
00:05:12.460 --> 00:05:13.460
Yes.
116
00:05:13.460 --> 00:05:14.760
What did that one feel like?
117
00:05:14.760 --> 00:05:15.760
Yeah.
118
00:05:15.760 --> 00:05:16.760
Yeah.
119
00:05:16.760 --> 00:05:25.780
This one's a lot easier to have someone else set up for you.
120
00:05:25.780 --> 00:05:31.250
That's the self like that's the actual drill in the self guided version is
121
00:05:31.250 --> 00:05:32.180
either that
122
00:05:32.180 --> 00:05:36.380
or a tee sticking out of the end.
123
00:05:36.380 --> 00:05:37.380
Okay.
124
00:05:37.380 --> 00:05:44.890
So you want to give those a try group up partner up see what the especially the
125
00:05:44.890 --> 00:05:45.420
the shoulder
126
00:05:45.420 --> 00:06:00.870
one and the elbow one which one did you feel it or just the idea I don't I don
127
00:06:00.870 --> 00:06:01.260
't grip
128
00:06:01.260 --> 00:06:05.070
like you but I'm big on radius change I don't like yeah and when I first
129
00:06:05.070 --> 00:06:06.180
started doing stuff
130
00:06:06.180 --> 00:06:18.500
you know and so stand feels it yeah correct and it doesn't change as much as
131
00:06:18.500 --> 00:06:18.860
you think
132
00:06:18.860 --> 00:06:19.860
correct.
133
00:06:19.860 --> 00:06:24.050
Start teaching it in the beginning he was hurting more people than he had yeah
134
00:06:24.050 --> 00:06:24.260
because
135
00:06:24.260 --> 00:06:28.260
he was teaching his feels you know but no I love that.
136
00:06:28.260 --> 00:06:29.260
You do it.
137
00:06:29.260 --> 00:06:30.260
Do you want to feel it?
138
00:06:30.260 --> 00:06:31.260
Hands in the right spot.
139
00:06:31.260 --> 00:06:32.260
Do you want to feel it first?
140
00:06:32.260 --> 00:06:33.260
Yeah.
141
00:06:33.260 --> 00:06:34.740
I'm hyper aware of it though too.
142
00:06:34.740 --> 00:06:47.500
So it's a little bit of a cheat so here we'll do feel that there okay go ahead
143
00:06:47.500 --> 00:06:48.940
there's a
144
00:06:48.940 --> 00:06:53.490
tiny bit on this one that lengthened a tad shortened oh it's shortened okay
145
00:06:53.490 --> 00:06:54.220
that's because
146
00:06:54.220 --> 00:07:01.780
I'm hyper aware of not like yeah but I tend to hook the shit out I tried to
147
00:07:01.780 --> 00:07:02.660
send a hood
148
00:07:02.660 --> 00:07:07.210
hook hook so this would be the other way that I do it it's kind of from there
149
00:07:07.210 --> 00:07:07.940
okay
150
00:07:07.940 --> 00:07:19.120
go ahead yeah so it's just kind of like okay yeah you have a tendency to want
151
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:19.340
to kind
152
00:07:19.340 --> 00:07:24.100
of pull with that just a little bit now just just being from talking today do
153
00:07:24.100 --> 00:07:24.700
you think
154
00:07:24.700 --> 00:07:27.530
any of that is because sometimes he wants me to make sure I have enough space
155
00:07:27.530 --> 00:07:27.940
between
156
00:07:27.940 --> 00:07:33.940
my trail of my ribcage I collide and then he thinks it's boom boom let me let
157
00:07:33.940 --> 00:07:34.340
me watch
158
00:07:34.340 --> 00:07:39.140
one let me watch a normal stroke I was too close to be able to look at it he
159
00:07:39.140 --> 00:07:39.700
adds a little
160
00:07:39.700 --> 00:07:43.560
bit of tilt for me to give this a little more room before it collides or else I
161
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:44.120
'll round
162
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:51.630
house it or yang okay yep let me see this have blend about 20 different
163
00:07:51.630 --> 00:07:52.100
instructors
164
00:07:52.100 --> 00:08:08.610
yeah yeah I think we're gonna sorry do it again do one more yeah go ahead and
165
00:08:08.610 --> 00:08:09.500
get set
166
00:08:09.500 --> 00:08:22.620
up let me get through my rituals here okay ready yep okay go ahead well fell
167
00:08:22.620 --> 00:08:22.860
different
168
00:08:22.860 --> 00:08:27.020
there the through swing it definitely did yeah swing wasn't wide no no it's
169
00:08:27.020 --> 00:08:28.140
basically
170
00:08:28.140 --> 00:08:33.090
on the way through I think you're I think you get a little bit almost like it
171
00:08:33.090 --> 00:08:33.500
moves
172
00:08:33.500 --> 00:08:39.020
this way but you also block it like to stop round housing instead of moving
173
00:08:39.020 --> 00:08:40.380
more vertically
174
00:08:40.380 --> 00:08:43.840
yeah you just don't move it and so because you don't move it then you have to
175
00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:44.260
pull it
176
00:08:44.260 --> 00:08:49.060
around more with this where when I keep it going this way you'll be able to
177
00:08:49.060 --> 00:08:49.780
feel like
178
00:08:49.780 --> 00:08:54.330
like the arm doesn't have to bend quite as much it just kind of follows it
179
00:08:54.330 --> 00:08:55.060
correct it's
180
00:08:55.060 --> 00:09:06.060
a mini it's a mini yeah 21 thoughts now yeah yeah I like your backswing 12 yeah
181
00:09:06.060 --> 00:09:13.700
that felt
182
00:09:13.700 --> 00:09:23.060
like more yeah that'll help with like the pacing what's your acceleration on
183
00:09:23.060 --> 00:09:23.580
sam putt
184
00:09:23.580 --> 00:09:36.310
lab look like yeah so this would help with that being less so yeah I'm saying
185
00:09:36.310 --> 00:09:38.580
in my own
186
00:09:38.580 --> 00:09:46.760
stroke yeah I am more like that okay and I am more flat are you a good putter
187
00:09:46.760 --> 00:09:47.260
yes not
188
00:09:47.260 --> 00:10:06.580
so bad okay if it works you don't I don't you don't have to change it a little
189
00:10:06.580 --> 00:10:07.420
more
190
00:10:07.420 --> 00:10:33.780
length on the back okay one more if he really has a hard time lengthening the
191
00:10:33.780 --> 00:10:34.260
backswing
192
00:10:34.260 --> 00:10:40.260
go ahead and get set up that's where this position comes in really handy
193
00:10:40.260 --> 00:10:40.460
alright you're
194
00:10:40.460 --> 00:10:45.010
ready I'm gonna kind of help you're just gonna you're gonna do it like 20% okay
195
00:10:45.010 --> 00:10:45.180
ready
196
00:10:45.180 --> 00:10:57.200
relax we're gonna stretch our no let the coach get ready so what did that feel
197
00:10:57.200 --> 00:10:57.460
in terms
198
00:10:57.460 --> 00:11:05.260
of length of backswing a little more that's what he wants different tempo mm-h
199
00:11:05.260 --> 00:11:05.900
mm I'll show
200
00:11:05.900 --> 00:11:12.240
you I'll show you guys how I teach tempo that will be that's part of it yeah
201
00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:12.660
that's
202
00:11:12.660 --> 00:11:23.430
like the elbow one yeah hey you I borrowed your putter yeah okay this is my
203
00:11:23.430 --> 00:11:23.980
okay I actually
204
00:11:23.980 --> 00:11:34.200
have one in a little bit this is my whole thing it's not as hard as it looks
205
00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:35.860
right any
206
00:11:35.860 --> 00:11:44.820
questions here so we did we did the elbow you like any of them any of them feel
207
00:11:44.820 --> 00:11:45.420
different
208
00:11:45.420 --> 00:11:49.980
now I the the one that I really like
209
00:11:49.980 --> 00:12:13.180
okay good yeah and when we switch places me personally the elbow one yeah yeah
210
00:12:13.180 --> 00:12:16.700
do you
211
00:12:16.700 --> 00:12:26.180
wanna feel try it go ahead and get set up okay
212
00:12:26.180 --> 00:12:42.100
how did where did it feel different a lot different in the back yeah yeah that
213
00:12:42.100 --> 00:12:43.820
's one of
214
00:12:43.820 --> 00:12:50.230
your that's my matchup yeah yeah yeah kind of like standardly describes but
215
00:12:50.230 --> 00:12:50.820
doesn't actually
216
00:12:50.820 --> 00:13:02.020
do yeah yeah shoulder one is primarily forgetting the tilt to be more vertical
217
00:13:02.020 --> 00:13:10.820
yeah oh so yeah
218
00:13:10.820 --> 00:13:14.620
if you're doing this it's it's kind of like thumb on the shoulder blade and
219
00:13:14.620 --> 00:13:15.500
then finger
220
00:13:15.500 --> 00:13:19.250
on the tricep and I'm kind of like you it's almost like creating a little bit
221
00:13:19.250 --> 00:13:20.580
of you can
222
00:13:20.580 --> 00:13:25.530
see how it's almost like a little bit of a vice could you feel that that feel
223
00:13:25.530 --> 00:13:27.460
what do
224
00:13:27.460 --> 00:13:31.070
I feel like to you how much work was I doing not a whole lot it's more of like
225
00:13:31.070 --> 00:13:31.500
a gentle
226
00:13:31.500 --> 00:13:54.570
guide look for you did I feel similar to mine good let me just check in on any
227
00:13:54.570 --> 00:13:55.100
yeah
228
00:13:55.100 --> 00:14:01.220
we're struggling a little bit okay you found the okay oh good awesome yeah that
229
00:14:01.220 --> 00:14:01.740
's why we're
230
00:14:01.740 --> 00:14:14.790
here then all right which any of them feel helpful or which ones okay okay okay
231
00:14:14.790 --> 00:14:16.260
what do
232
00:14:16.260 --> 00:14:21.510
you struggle with with your product okay okay more more speed control more
233
00:14:21.510 --> 00:14:23.340
start line more
234
00:14:23.340 --> 00:14:30.340
all the above yeah I mean speed is okay green rings are right but I think it's
235
00:14:30.340 --> 00:14:30.980
start line
236
00:14:30.980 --> 00:14:37.000
lack of getting in there properly and start line okay let me let me watch one
237
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:37.780
yeah and
238
00:14:37.780 --> 00:14:50.320
then I'll jump in okay yeah yeah and I like try to push it okay so go ahead and
239
00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:50.700
get set
240
00:14:50.700 --> 00:15:01.880
up we need this one you ready okay go ahead what fell different there what
241
00:15:01.880 --> 00:15:03.660
about the
242
00:15:03.660 --> 00:15:12.490
arms any let's do it again that felt different though right okay ready go ahead
243
00:15:12.490 --> 00:15:17.500
yeah I could
244
00:15:17.500 --> 00:15:21.640
I can feel that this basically almost wants to pull and as it pulls it's going
245
00:15:21.640 --> 00:15:22.180
to twist
246
00:15:22.180 --> 00:15:28.320
so like for potentially you felt more movement happening like within your your
247
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:29.140
body your
248
00:15:29.140 --> 00:15:35.140
core yeah yeah okay so now you try to duplicate that okay I'm just going to
249
00:15:35.140 --> 00:15:35.740
provide a little
250
00:15:35.740 --> 00:15:41.520
tiny I'm not even going to do much I'm just providing a tiny bit of like feel
251
00:15:41.520 --> 00:15:42.180
so that
252
00:15:42.180 --> 00:16:00.580
it's kind of the same okay see how this is I make a stroke you're ready to be
253
00:16:00.580 --> 00:16:03.180
guinea
254
00:16:03.180 --> 00:16:12.100
pig come on in you're okay with it right yeah you'll be a good sport
255
00:16:12.100 --> 00:16:30.380
pretty much is this your worst name or not too bad okay okay so those are the
256
00:16:30.380 --> 00:16:30.980
big kind
257
00:16:30.980 --> 00:16:36.850
of like tactile drills big buckets but I also use a lot of the self guided
258
00:16:36.850 --> 00:16:38.300
drills so we'll
259
00:16:38.300 --> 00:16:45.810
go through a few of those what I wanted to start with here Adrian's self
260
00:16:45.810 --> 00:16:46.860
diagnosis is
261
00:16:46.860 --> 00:16:51.420
I stuck it putting and that she has kind of some like a lot of excess arm
262
00:16:51.420 --> 00:16:52.220
movement so
263
00:16:52.220 --> 00:16:56.770
I'm going to start by assessing how the arms are working similar to what we did
264
00:16:56.770 --> 00:16:56.940
in the
265
00:16:56.940 --> 00:17:02.070
full swing so we're going to do the single let single arm right hand left hand
266
00:17:02.070 --> 00:17:02.740
so let's
267
00:17:02.740 --> 00:17:12.580
go ahead and and we can get a little less what yes basically all right so and I
268
00:17:12.580 --> 00:17:13.080
'll show
269
00:17:13.080 --> 00:17:16.020
you kind of how I walk through this so first one's going to be right hand only
270
00:17:16.020 --> 00:17:18.140
so you take
271
00:17:18.140 --> 00:17:31.360
your normal set up good yikes yeah okay not too bad now left arm only scared
272
00:17:31.360 --> 00:17:31.980
scared
273
00:17:31.980 --> 00:17:49.460
more scared than the right okay oh yeah okay and so just like in the full swing
274
00:17:49.460 --> 00:17:50.020
version
275
00:17:50.020 --> 00:17:55.300
the main goal is to get these to match up and what was what was different there
276
00:17:55.300 --> 00:17:55.420
what
277
00:17:55.420 --> 00:17:58.130
was different in the left arm compared to the right right arm felt better for
278
00:17:58.130 --> 00:17:58.500
sure for
279
00:17:58.500 --> 00:18:18.640
sure okay and the left was like wiggly wobbly yes Logan I I've met some pretty
280
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:19.260
good putters
281
00:18:19.260 --> 00:18:29.770
um honestly I this is the first I hadn't thought about it I actually hadn't
282
00:18:29.770 --> 00:18:30.300
noticed
283
00:18:30.300 --> 00:18:37.080
um so I'll have to think about that why why are ladies you're kind of why are
284
00:18:37.080 --> 00:18:37.400
ladies
285
00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:59.570
okay it might be the legs okay all right well I'll think about that one but let
286
00:18:59.570 --> 00:18:59.820
me see
287
00:18:59.820 --> 00:19:08.820
so while we're working here we had one that wasn't too bad pop lot of positives
288
00:19:08.820 --> 00:19:09.060
and one
289
00:19:09.060 --> 00:19:13.470
that was not very good so we're gonna use the good one to tutor the bad one so
290
00:19:13.470 --> 00:19:13.940
go ahead
291
00:19:13.940 --> 00:19:28.760
and make a right handed stroke and now put your left hand on take your right
292
00:19:28.760 --> 00:19:30.220
hand off
293
00:19:30.220 --> 00:19:35.960
what's different there compared to when you did the left arm only yeah way
294
00:19:35.960 --> 00:19:37.500
closer and
295
00:19:37.500 --> 00:19:42.440
it was it was also kind of like lengthened right yeah okay so now take a left
296
00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:43.380
hand practice
297
00:19:43.380 --> 00:19:54.560
swing and try to get back to where we were right there so yeah so go ahead and
298
00:19:54.560 --> 00:19:55.020
so how
299
00:19:55.020 --> 00:19:58.400
can we keep this close and not let it rotate over you're gonna have to move
300
00:19:58.400 --> 00:19:59.100
this a little
301
00:19:59.100 --> 00:20:04.900
bit more okay extend it almost like a little bit of the negative tourism thing
302
00:20:04.900 --> 00:20:05.820
okay go
303
00:20:05.820 --> 00:20:16.500
ahead better better good okay now try to do that
304
00:20:16.500 --> 00:20:40.100
that feel aggressive okay do you want to try one more left arm or you want to
305
00:20:40.100 --> 00:20:40.340
go right
306
00:20:40.340 --> 00:21:01.140
to both hands you're the CEO okay so make a right hand backswing freeze put
307
00:21:01.140 --> 00:21:01.460
your left
308
00:21:01.460 --> 00:21:06.040
hand on take your right hand off what's different there is that way bigger the
309
00:21:06.040 --> 00:21:08.140
length of swing
310
00:21:08.140 --> 00:21:19.700
yeah okay is it higher is it more closed is it something different okay so the
311
00:21:19.700 --> 00:21:20.300
the tendency
312
00:21:20.300 --> 00:21:23.420
what it looks like on the left hand is the body doesn't really do much so it
313
00:21:23.420 --> 00:21:23.860
kind of
314
00:21:23.860 --> 00:21:28.410
it's short and then it has to like really pull and so the first one was a
315
00:21:28.410 --> 00:21:28.860
little bit
316
00:21:28.860 --> 00:21:34.240
better when you did that or that that first good one yeah you had a little bit
317
00:21:34.240 --> 00:21:34.820
more of
318
00:21:34.820 --> 00:21:38.420
movement of the body both directions and then that second one was kind of short
319
00:21:38.420 --> 00:21:38.580
so
320
00:21:38.580 --> 00:21:43.130
then you started to feel like you had to pull it so in order to keep it kind of
321
00:21:43.130 --> 00:21:43.300
more
322
00:21:43.300 --> 00:21:46.080
neutral on the way through I think you're gonna have to feel a little bit more
323
00:21:46.080 --> 00:21:46.380
in the
324
00:21:46.380 --> 00:21:56.780
backswing yeah exactly just to kind of get a measurement
325
00:21:56.780 --> 00:22:04.290
of about how big of a swing you're gonna take good yep and now come through
326
00:22:04.290 --> 00:22:04.300
feeling
327
00:22:04.300 --> 00:22:11.780
that connected feel so come through to your finish that's okay
328
00:22:11.780 --> 00:22:33.980
good that's like a matter okay left hand only go ahead set up the ball so we're
329
00:22:33.980 --> 00:22:38.530
gonna focus on this space here and turning a little bit more here into the
330
00:22:38.530 --> 00:22:39.020
finish so
331
00:22:39.020 --> 00:22:47.820
we're gonna turn a little bit more here into the backswing or tilting yeah yeah
332
00:22:47.820 --> 00:22:54.620
so it still
333
00:22:54.620 --> 00:23:00.690
has a little bit of that excel over acceleration right okay we're gonna come
334
00:23:00.690 --> 00:23:01.460
back to it so I
335
00:23:01.460 --> 00:23:06.900
did say one of the one of the comments was about teaching like rhythm tempo
336
00:23:06.900 --> 00:23:07.380
because a
337
00:23:07.380 --> 00:23:11.920
lot of golfers that struggle with distance control tend to struggle with like
338
00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:12.140
rate of
339
00:23:12.140 --> 00:23:18.370
acceleration typically like short back fast through or or short long or slow
340
00:23:18.370 --> 00:23:20.340
fast right
341
00:23:20.340 --> 00:23:25.660
so whether you're so some of the ways to teach tempo are more kind of like
342
00:23:25.660 --> 00:23:27.380
counting rhythm
343
00:23:27.380 --> 00:23:31.930
one two metronome you've probably tried some of those not everyone gravitates
344
00:23:31.930 --> 00:23:32.500
toward those
345
00:23:32.500 --> 00:23:37.040
that's definitely like probably my first option but second is gonna be more
346
00:23:37.040 --> 00:23:38.260
feel okay
347
00:23:38.260 --> 00:23:45.770
so uh can I borrow putter real quick all right so hold the putter like this all
348
00:23:45.770 --> 00:23:46.820
right so
349
00:23:46.820 --> 00:23:52.070
like catching an egg don't let it break okay so you're gonna toss it up and you
350
00:23:52.070 --> 00:23:52.300
're gonna
351
00:23:52.300 --> 00:24:06.040
try to catch it sure little bit inch oh you broke the egg go longer like how
352
00:24:06.040 --> 00:24:06.140
how far
353
00:24:06.140 --> 00:24:15.690
can you go down with it good let it drop a little more you're kind of catching
354
00:24:15.690 --> 00:24:15.980
it too
355
00:24:15.980 --> 00:24:23.540
hard go fast like drop with it I know I know you gotta you gotta soften that
356
00:24:23.540 --> 00:24:24.420
impact there
357
00:24:24.420 --> 00:24:38.880
you go good good okay that was a good squat but you can do it without like yep
358
00:24:38.880 --> 00:24:40.660
so now
359
00:24:40.660 --> 00:24:43.570
you feel on the way down how your putter in your arms are kind of moving at the
360
00:24:43.570 --> 00:24:43.940
same
361
00:24:43.940 --> 00:24:49.220
speed okay can you imagine how you would basically like bring it back and then
362
00:24:49.220 --> 00:24:49.980
the arms and the
363
00:24:49.980 --> 00:24:54.530
putter are basically dropping it about the same speed from here through to
364
00:24:54.530 --> 00:24:55.060
there instead
365
00:24:55.060 --> 00:25:01.900
of going sh instead of basically like pushing it up that makes sense okay so
366
00:25:01.900 --> 00:25:03.100
now we won't
367
00:25:03.100 --> 00:25:08.250
do it the combo of just the lead arm so put both hands on the club and now let
368
00:25:08.250 --> 00:25:08.860
's see if
369
00:25:08.860 --> 00:25:12.940
we can get a little bit more of this feel of a certain length of backswing and
370
00:25:12.940 --> 00:25:13.540
then the
371
00:25:13.540 --> 00:25:21.670
egg drop feel down through impact while turning your body through got it it's
372
00:25:21.670 --> 00:25:21.940
gonna have to
373
00:25:21.940 --> 00:25:25.030
go you're gonna need more momentum at the top of the swing in order to let it
374
00:25:25.030 --> 00:25:25.500
drop so
375
00:25:25.500 --> 00:25:37.980
it's gonna have to go back a little faster better that was better ready drop
376
00:25:37.980 --> 00:25:38.500
and sometimes
377
00:25:38.500 --> 00:25:42.510
to exaggerate it I'll do the little catch so go ahead and bring it back and
378
00:25:42.510 --> 00:25:43.220
drop we're
379
00:25:43.220 --> 00:25:51.350
gonna play catch drop it more pop so if it's dropping when would it reach its
380
00:25:51.350 --> 00:25:52.460
fastest speed
381
00:25:52.460 --> 00:25:59.970
at impact and when would it reach its fastest acceleration right does it starts
382
00:25:59.970 --> 00:26:00.740
that yeah
383
00:26:00.740 --> 00:26:13.000
so it's gonna go okay better better better you know what's coming you're
384
00:26:13.000 --> 00:26:13.460
pulling away
385
00:26:13.460 --> 00:26:24.200
a little bit here you drop into me more earlier earlier and then slower there
386
00:26:24.200 --> 00:26:25.220
you go like
387
00:26:25.220 --> 00:26:35.680
let it drop do it again better better better better keep going yeah the ball is
388
00:26:35.680 --> 00:26:36.420
just there
389
00:26:36.420 --> 00:26:51.020
drop drop good ready do you feel how that stopped yeah like you stop myself but
390
00:26:51.020 --> 00:26:51.440
so did
391
00:26:51.440 --> 00:26:59.570
you feel the acceleration okay so now on your own perfect so now on your own go
392
00:26:59.570 --> 00:27:00.380
ahead and
393
00:27:00.380 --> 00:27:06.620
make a stroke or you're gonna feel that that kind of egg drop pop on the way
394
00:27:06.620 --> 00:27:07.480
through a
395
00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:16.740
little more so keep this connection so the drop is kind of go ahead feel that
396
00:27:16.740 --> 00:27:19.120
ready drop
397
00:27:19.120 --> 00:27:23.650
feel it ready drop okay set up to the ball I'm gonna do one with you and then
398
00:27:23.650 --> 00:27:23.740
you'll
399
00:27:23.740 --> 00:27:47.500
do it on your ready drop ready drop better yeah like different like way better
400
00:27:47.500 --> 00:27:48.200
so I'll
401
00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:55.710
use that that drop feel I'll use pull the putter upside down mmm yep other
402
00:27:55.710 --> 00:27:57.040
upside down
403
00:27:57.040 --> 00:28:03.040
but at the top here so I'll put put my hands on and basically say like okay
404
00:28:03.040 --> 00:28:04.860
this would have
405
00:28:04.860 --> 00:28:10.340
that drop feel feel that yeah the only problem with this model is I don't want
406
00:28:10.340 --> 00:28:11.280
the wrist moving
407
00:28:11.280 --> 00:28:16.860
this much so in the model your arms are part of this drop right and what I tend
408
00:28:16.860 --> 00:28:17.440
to see
409
00:28:17.440 --> 00:28:25.170
with yours so relax that yeah so what I mean like feel it through the hands but
410
00:28:25.170 --> 00:28:25.880
when we
411
00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:28.320
do it in the putting stroke it would be all the way up to the shoulders but in
412
00:28:28.320 --> 00:28:28.720
this little
413
00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:32.440
drill where you can just keep that there and just do it at the wrist but what I
414
00:28:32.440 --> 00:28:32.840
tend to
415
00:28:32.840 --> 00:28:38.470
see with yours is a little bit more so this would be applying speed early and
416
00:28:38.470 --> 00:28:39.400
that would
417
00:28:39.400 --> 00:28:50.020
be applying speed late yes so instead that's okay yep that's okay yep got that
418
00:28:50.020 --> 00:28:50.760
feel okay
419
00:28:50.760 --> 00:28:54.950
so now put both hands on the club and make a stroke where you're gonna feel the
420
00:28:54.950 --> 00:28:55.360
speed
421
00:28:55.360 --> 00:29:04.190
right where I did and then it's basically going to just kind of drop yep that's
422
00:29:04.190 --> 00:29:04.560
kind
423
00:29:04.560 --> 00:29:12.640
of pushed meaning I think you're respecting my foot instead of it kind of going
424
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:12.640
like
425
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:20.980
this it was more like moving the whole whole putter instead of just letting it
426
00:29:20.980 --> 00:29:21.280
letting
427
00:29:21.280 --> 00:29:37.280
it drop better yep good go ahead better to swing back and forth one two one two
428
00:29:37.280 --> 00:29:37.880
good
429
00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:48.390
tempo and you keep that going for a minute keep going keep it going close your
430
00:29:48.390 --> 00:29:49.200
eyes keep
431
00:29:49.200 --> 00:30:00.110
it going keep your eyes closed what did that feel like what about tempo did I
432
00:30:00.110 --> 00:30:00.920
feel smooth
433
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:07.210
did it feel more like continuous or did it doesn't have this drop feel what's
434
00:30:07.210 --> 00:30:08.560
it now
435
00:30:08.560 --> 00:30:24.640
try to recreate that whatever that feel was yeah exactly okay there you go yeah
436
00:30:24.640 --> 00:30:25.360
that's
437
00:30:25.360 --> 00:30:30.760
the where the descriptions become really wild yeah but but you can see so that
438
00:30:30.760 --> 00:30:31.600
's how for
439
00:30:31.600 --> 00:30:35.560
someone who has distance control problems I usually work through now I thought
440
00:30:35.560 --> 00:30:36.000
we were
441
00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:40.990
gonna do mostly left arm right arm only but it looked like the acceleration
442
00:30:40.990 --> 00:30:41.760
rate was the
443
00:30:41.760 --> 00:30:51.930
bigger issue yeah that's a good matter I feel like a whole different activity
444
00:30:51.930 --> 00:30:52.440
do you
445
00:30:52.440 --> 00:31:09.920
want to try any of those as invisible or you just want like grab a putter so so
446
00:31:09.920 --> 00:31:10.480
here
447
00:31:10.480 --> 00:31:15.550
this is a really easy so sometimes I'll do it this way as well if I if I went
448
00:31:15.550 --> 00:31:16.680
pendulum
449
00:31:16.680 --> 00:31:22.910
if I just let it drop then when is it gonna reach maximum acceleration as it
450
00:31:22.910 --> 00:31:24.260
hits or sorry
451
00:31:24.260 --> 00:31:29.300
maximum speed as it hits me I'm not slowing it down some people will kind of do
452
00:31:29.300 --> 00:31:30.960
that right
453
00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:38.470
so so hers was more like right so I was trying to get it a little faster and
454
00:31:38.470 --> 00:31:39.720
then if it has
455
00:31:39.720 --> 00:31:44.270
this dead movement here then basically I can kind of like go like this but if
456
00:31:44.270 --> 00:31:45.120
she's rapidly
457
00:31:45.120 --> 00:31:49.670
accelerating it then she'll push into me and I won't be able to push it back so
458
00:31:49.670 --> 00:31:50.200
I'm trying
459
00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:59.900
to get yeah so watch yeah so go ahead and grip it yeah nope don't slow down
460
00:31:59.900 --> 00:32:01.720
into me like
461
00:32:01.720 --> 00:32:12.920
smack drop it into me more so it'll have okay yeah don't be scared of me it's
462
00:32:12.920 --> 00:32:13.640
not gonna
463
00:32:13.640 --> 00:32:26.550
hurt good okay and now yeah good feel that do you feel this the pace and the
464
00:32:26.550 --> 00:32:27.840
speed so
465
00:32:27.840 --> 00:32:33.150
that's remember like repetitive movements is one way to get the core involved
466
00:32:33.150 --> 00:32:33.640
and in
467
00:32:33.640 --> 00:32:38.610
this it's more like the shoulder core but it's still kind of a core so that's
468
00:32:38.610 --> 00:32:41.040
what we did
469
00:32:41.040 --> 00:32:44.700
do you want to try those as partners you can work on that that's a fun one the
470
00:32:44.700 --> 00:32:44.960
kind
471
00:32:44.960 --> 00:32:53.790
of like the catch this one is easy to do on your own I teach that as a tempo
472
00:32:53.790 --> 00:32:54.120
drill she's
473
00:32:54.120 --> 00:32:57.780
now an expert so if you have any questions you can ask Adrian she's our she's
474
00:32:57.780 --> 00:32:58.320
our tempo
475
00:32:58.320 --> 00:33:07.150
queen yeah I think you were saying at one point pressure on this hand pull in
476
00:33:07.150 --> 00:33:10.480
this way in this hand ball that way to prevent the full
477
00:33:10.480 --> 00:33:14.240
crumb from that in here that's one thing and then the other thing was as
478
00:33:14.240 --> 00:33:18.610
putting really well this year and the left the handle coming up and the head is
479
00:33:18.610 --> 00:33:22.640
going down the line and then the third thing was I was really like I was just
480
00:33:22.640 --> 00:33:26.640
interacting with my left side and then they can track it on the right side of
481
00:33:26.640 --> 00:33:38.420
those. Yeah yeah no no let me check on time um okay thank you no so I'll
482
00:33:38.420 --> 00:33:39.120
comment on that
483
00:33:39.120 --> 00:33:54.380
he's still trying to hit the environment environment bring that knowledge over
484
00:33:54.380 --> 00:34:04.360
here for some it's a home run for some it's a foul ball okay that's why you
485
00:34:04.360 --> 00:34:07.120
need of like I start with metronome but for
486
00:34:07.120 --> 00:34:13.710
feel players the metronome doesn't always land so she kind of she has more of
487
00:34:13.710 --> 00:34:18.360
the feel traits so I thought that she would resonate with that and she did
488
00:34:18.360 --> 00:34:21.120
pretty well for that like you're catching the
489
00:34:21.120 --> 00:34:34.320
ball yeah yeah yes so if you were like overly accelerating like try to really
490
00:34:34.320 --> 00:34:40.120
exactly see how like I try to push you back and it doesn't go anywhere okay
491
00:34:40.120 --> 00:34:49.120
yeah that's where you're coaching about to get to the point that you're
492
00:34:49.120 --> 00:34:53.920
correct that it's like accelerating smoothly to that point and then when I move
493
00:34:53.920 --> 00:34:58.480
it out of the way they feel like it's a shorter follow through because it like
494
00:34:58.480 --> 00:35:03.580
hit the ball and like already reached a maximum where when they're used to like
495
00:35:03.580 --> 00:35:06.120
pushing it past they have a lot of speed going
496
00:35:06.120 --> 00:35:13.630
through there they carry them into a fuller finish she was getting too much
497
00:35:13.630 --> 00:35:26.640
anticipation of hitting the ball so I had her close your eyes okay it elevates
498
00:35:26.640 --> 00:35:33.120
the feel like dramatically I forget the numbers but it's like it's like
499
00:35:33.120 --> 00:35:33.120
dramatically
500
00:35:33.120 --> 00:35:39.120
he also worked with Sergio Sergio one of us hitting every part with his eyes
501
00:35:39.120 --> 00:35:59.120
really yes I hadn't heard that yes there's my normal shirt okay not bad
502
00:35:59.120 --> 00:36:09.550
much just try to match yeah exactly am I applying too much acceleration or no
503
00:36:09.550 --> 00:36:18.470
no you're doing okay nothing I would say potentially it's a let me I'm getting
504
00:36:18.470 --> 00:36:21.120
blocked by my hat
505
00:36:21.120 --> 00:36:27.120
yeah you're good there's a little bit like I think you got a little bit too
506
00:36:27.120 --> 00:36:31.610
much kind of arm play like it feels like the grip is moving too horizontally
507
00:36:31.610 --> 00:36:38.120
through there if I was like picking on stroke things it would probably be
508
00:36:38.120 --> 00:36:58.360
ready okay what does that feel like yeah this is me and Pierre yeah yeah yes
509
00:36:58.360 --> 00:37:04.520
that's kind of what it felt like yeah yeah so it'll have kind of like a more
510
00:37:04.520 --> 00:37:07.120
like compact or kind of tight look
511
00:37:07.120 --> 00:37:14.630
um show me which one you're not the same putter I know you mean this one yes
512
00:37:14.630 --> 00:37:28.120
okay okay he wants the full street unit too slow I don't have to accelerate you
513
00:37:28.120 --> 00:37:36.120
earlier
514
00:37:36.120 --> 00:37:44.900
what you think it's a little too too fast too late what what you mean by too
515
00:37:44.900 --> 00:37:56.960
fast too late hold the putter like this close your eyes what does that feel
516
00:37:56.960 --> 00:38:00.510
like the putter swinging compared to what you're doing what you're doing was
517
00:38:00.510 --> 00:38:01.120
more like this right
518
00:38:01.120 --> 00:38:07.280
for us yeah okay okay instead if you're gonna add speed it's right here it's
519
00:38:07.280 --> 00:38:28.120
right there okay that's important yeah perfect thank you better
520
00:38:28.120 --> 00:38:50.640
how's it going okay I think you can use the single arm as a like a training
521
00:38:50.640 --> 00:38:57.120
like that's one of your your barometers okay so I wanted to talk about two fun
522
00:38:57.120 --> 00:38:57.120
topics
523
00:38:57.120 --> 00:39:02.640
one was the grip there was a question about kind of like pressure points that I
524
00:39:02.640 --> 00:39:12.360
like to see and then two we have a brave soul who he's putting that way we'll
525
00:39:12.360 --> 00:39:16.120
get that first let me talk about the grip and then we'll we'll bring in
526
00:39:16.120 --> 00:39:23.050
okay so let me borrow the putter so your students will always ask kind of like
527
00:39:23.050 --> 00:39:29.870
what's the perfect grip going back to my analogy of like as long as like
528
00:39:29.870 --> 00:39:34.390
holding the paintbrush in the right way as long as you have control of it it's
529
00:39:34.390 --> 00:39:36.120
not twisting like it's probably okay
530
00:39:36.120 --> 00:39:41.080
the way I explained it with putting is if you if you held your hands like this
531
00:39:41.080 --> 00:39:46.280
kind of in a prayer position you could apply even pressure from all the fingers
532
00:39:46.280 --> 00:39:51.120
it'll be really easy to not move the wrist especially if you added a little bit
533
00:39:51.120 --> 00:39:55.120
of ulnar deviation can you feel that and I'll have them do that
534
00:39:55.120 --> 00:39:59.220
like okay if you just rock back and forth can you feel how your wrist aren't
535
00:39:59.220 --> 00:40:03.950
really moving and then I'll ask like how's that feel compared to your putting
536
00:40:03.950 --> 00:40:08.360
the left because it's like no it's all it's all this stuff I'm like okay well
537
00:40:08.360 --> 00:40:14.120
the challenge is the way we grip the club unless you do that new that new grip
538
00:40:14.120 --> 00:40:17.990
the way we grip the club your hands are kind of offset right so you need to
539
00:40:17.990 --> 00:40:22.250
have more or less like opposing pressure points in order to have control the
540
00:40:22.250 --> 00:40:26.120
putter and ideally they go through like the middle of the putter shaft
541
00:40:26.120 --> 00:40:32.080
so the conventional grip the classic grip when you take it is basically the the
542
00:40:32.080 --> 00:40:37.950
middle of the palm of the right hand this is called the capitate joint where
543
00:40:37.950 --> 00:40:43.120
you can close that's going to go up against the index finger of the middle
544
00:40:43.120 --> 00:40:43.120
finger
545
00:40:43.120 --> 00:40:48.210
or like the first knuckle of the middle finger sorry not the index finger so
546
00:40:48.210 --> 00:40:52.450
that's going to be there I have a little bit of pressure there and then the
547
00:40:52.450 --> 00:40:57.120
index finger of the lead hand is either going to go up against the ring finger
548
00:40:57.120 --> 00:41:01.120
of the trail hand or the middle finger of the trail hand kind of like this
549
00:41:01.120 --> 00:41:06.670
so I now have to there to there and those are providing a little bit of
550
00:41:06.670 --> 00:41:12.430
pressure against each other so now they're not moving just like I was doing
551
00:41:12.430 --> 00:41:17.120
with the even pressure point so I'll I'll often demonstrate like if you could
552
00:41:17.120 --> 00:41:21.300
design like it doesn't even have to be pretty I'll come up with a new one kind
553
00:41:21.300 --> 00:41:22.120
of every time I do this
554
00:41:22.120 --> 00:41:26.920
there I have two pressure above two pressure below and I'm kind of feeling that
555
00:41:26.920 --> 00:41:31.080
connection there I could make a stroke where the putter doesn't really twist
556
00:41:31.080 --> 00:41:34.120
and I'd have pretty decent putter face control doing that
557
00:41:34.120 --> 00:41:45.310
so whether people are cross handed or claw or conventional or like I said that
558
00:41:45.310 --> 00:41:50.000
that new grip the whole goal is to basically create a situation where you have
559
00:41:50.000 --> 00:41:53.120
these pressure points helping stabilize the wrist
560
00:41:53.120 --> 00:42:00.290
so common ways that you would have it would be if like if you're too much down
561
00:42:00.290 --> 00:42:06.670
in the fingers then you're pushing usually above the shaft that's why we want
562
00:42:06.670 --> 00:42:11.390
it in the palm because if I push through the middle then the putter face doesn
563
00:42:11.390 --> 00:42:14.830
't really twist if I pushed on the top it would twist it that way if I push too
564
00:42:14.830 --> 00:42:18.490
much on the bottom it would twist it that way so when I'm pushing against the
565
00:42:18.490 --> 00:42:21.120
putter I basically want to be pushing through the center of the shaft
566
00:42:21.120 --> 00:42:26.180
and so the danger with it getting too much on top is I push on top of it and it
567
00:42:26.180 --> 00:42:27.120
twists a lot
568
00:42:27.120 --> 00:42:34.040
that makes sense okay so that was putter now brave soul he said well this stuff
569
00:42:34.040 --> 00:42:38.120
work with me basically because I'm side-staddle with a long putter
570
00:42:38.120 --> 00:42:42.670
right is that fair okay and that's going to open us up to a more fun
571
00:42:42.670 --> 00:42:45.120
conversation and why do you put side-saddle
572
00:42:45.120 --> 00:42:51.960
all right so what do we do with the golfers with the yips you can make you can
573
00:42:51.960 --> 00:42:56.120
make big changes what did you say don't look
574
00:42:56.120 --> 00:43:03.190
so come on over here he's still gonna probably you're still probably gonna put
575
00:43:03.190 --> 00:43:08.920
a long putter but and this and this might not work but is it worse on long put
576
00:43:08.920 --> 00:43:10.120
ts or short putts
577
00:43:10.120 --> 00:43:18.550
everything well I haven't putted this way in a long time maybe it's gone maybe
578
00:43:18.550 --> 00:43:22.870
it's gone let's see if I have to take a few practice here so that will make it
579
00:43:22.870 --> 00:43:23.120
worse right
580
00:43:23.120 --> 00:43:42.120
yeah he made it but we can see a little wobble there right it was a wobble so
581
00:43:42.120 --> 00:43:48.670
you made it though it wasn't too bad okay so now we're going to try to take out
582
00:43:48.670 --> 00:43:49.120
some of that wobble
583
00:43:49.120 --> 00:43:55.640
now how are we going to take out the wobble this is where it's like a little
584
00:43:55.640 --> 00:44:02.120
bit more I would say advanced anatomy we're gonna try to create more like
585
00:44:02.120 --> 00:44:07.900
special tension through the whole unit rather than just using pressure to hold
586
00:44:07.900 --> 00:44:15.170
the putter face still make sense the whole unit the whole unit the whole arm
587
00:44:15.170 --> 00:44:20.200
okay so go ahead and take your grip and now I'm going to try to move the putter
588
00:44:20.200 --> 00:44:21.120
don't let me
589
00:44:21.120 --> 00:44:26.650
and I'm just moving it in different directions just to feel where slack is but
590
00:44:26.650 --> 00:44:35.120
mostly in twisting okay nope you're good it's not too bad a little bit that way
591
00:44:35.120 --> 00:44:41.610
that's better okay so now if I go to move this where do you feel like you're
592
00:44:41.610 --> 00:44:44.120
controlling it more with the right hand more with the left hand
593
00:44:44.120 --> 00:44:52.220
left okay so with the right we're gonna try I want you to spiral this outward
594
00:44:52.220 --> 00:44:56.970
just a little bit so you're gonna feel like you turn your forearm one way in
595
00:44:56.970 --> 00:45:03.870
the elbow the opposite and now yeah so we're gonna bring this out and now pull
596
00:45:03.870 --> 00:45:06.120
this arm a little bit in front of your body
597
00:45:06.120 --> 00:45:11.700
yes less less because you lost the rotation this now pull it in front of your
598
00:45:11.700 --> 00:45:19.280
body perfect feel that you're pulling it this way correct okay so like that and
599
00:45:19.280 --> 00:45:25.120
then like that yep now do the same thing with the left hand more in front
600
00:45:25.120 --> 00:45:29.110
so it might feel a little wider good you feel that a little wider a little bit
601
00:45:29.110 --> 00:45:33.250
more in front but not by losing the tension so you've still got the tension in
602
00:45:33.250 --> 00:45:39.580
the arms and then you're just kind of pulling the pecs in perfect okay and now
603
00:45:39.580 --> 00:45:40.120
bend over
604
00:45:40.120 --> 00:45:46.530
okay and now I want you to try to maintain that tension in especially that
605
00:45:46.530 --> 00:45:56.120
right arm and go ahead and make a stroke did it still twist no didn't twist
606
00:45:56.120 --> 00:46:00.610
yeah do it again so use that as the governor if you feel any twisting I want
607
00:46:00.610 --> 00:46:05.120
you to figure out how to create that tension and so basically
608
00:46:05.120 --> 00:46:10.560
the most common way would be turning the elbow out pointing that way and the
609
00:46:10.560 --> 00:46:16.460
forearm the opposite direction and then pulling the arm in front using kind of
610
00:46:16.460 --> 00:46:21.620
the shoulder so it has more of that look rather than just kind of like if I put
611
00:46:21.620 --> 00:46:24.120
the elbows in and there's all this like slack
612
00:46:24.120 --> 00:46:28.110
what'll happen is the yip is like a wave has been built and then it like
613
00:46:28.110 --> 00:46:32.950
crashes where if you create that tension now it's not really moving there's no
614
00:46:32.950 --> 00:46:34.120
alarm signals going off
615
00:46:34.120 --> 00:46:49.170
it doesn't always fix it but a lot of the time good now like I said you might
616
00:46:49.170 --> 00:46:56.610
still decide that you wanted to go with the long putter so go ahead and do it
617
00:46:56.610 --> 00:47:02.190
again and the other thing that can happen as it relates this is he's got a
618
00:47:02.190 --> 00:47:03.120
little bit more of kind of like that level shoulder shoulder shoulder shoulder
619
00:47:03.120 --> 00:47:03.120
shoulder.
620
00:47:03.120 --> 00:47:07.820
so so now you've got your arms locked in now I'm going to guide so that you can
621
00:47:07.820 --> 00:47:11.950
see from that side I'm going to guide a little bit more of the vertical
622
00:47:11.950 --> 00:47:20.460
shoulder movement go ahead what did that feel like much better yeah we got to
623
00:47:20.460 --> 00:47:23.400
work on putter face control a little bit if we're going to do that but that
624
00:47:23.400 --> 00:47:32.120
didn't feel yippy at all right no okay do that again
625
00:47:32.120 --> 00:47:40.950
felt some slack slap just to the end create the tension and vertical shoulder
626
00:47:40.950 --> 00:47:51.120
okay create the tension and then vertical shoulder good what did that feel like
627
00:47:51.120 --> 00:47:57.120
no wobble whatsoever it's very stable yeah so if I can relax
628
00:47:57.120 --> 00:48:04.630
yes so oftentimes the yip is like a like I said like a slack and then they're
629
00:48:04.630 --> 00:48:11.690
they're trying to use tension to like close the loop like I said not a hundred
630
00:48:11.690 --> 00:48:16.440
percent of time but you you'll also see that with like people who can't like
631
00:48:16.440 --> 00:48:21.110
roll the ball that's one of those classic tests of like well if you like twist
632
00:48:21.110 --> 00:48:25.400
the shoulder and create stability and then just kind of let go oftentimes it
633
00:48:25.400 --> 00:48:26.120
helps clean
634
00:48:26.120 --> 00:48:31.710
up some of that like twist sideways feel so it can be trained or it can be
635
00:48:31.710 --> 00:48:39.470
avoided often if if I'm really lazy I'll go for the claw which works really
636
00:48:39.470 --> 00:48:43.670
well for a lot of people and I'll often use that as a for people who tend to
637
00:48:43.670 --> 00:48:48.120
like really open the putter face with the right arm
638
00:48:48.120 --> 00:48:52.980
for summary like for facial reasons it's kind of like already twisted like we
639
00:48:52.980 --> 00:48:57.500
were trying to do you don't have to fight it quite so much at the risk like you
640
00:48:57.500 --> 00:49:06.120
don't have to turn the form as much so it tends to work pretty well
641
00:49:06.120 --> 00:49:12.640
yes it doesn't that doesn't go up the elbow very easily so that would stabilize
642
00:49:12.640 --> 00:49:17.030
the wrist but I could still have like a shoulder type yip where when I go that
643
00:49:17.030 --> 00:49:17.120
way like
644
00:49:17.120 --> 00:49:25.290
it's not going to move very much any questions about that the only point I
645
00:49:25.290 --> 00:49:30.170
would make is to give this tone involuntary it's like I don't can't control
646
00:49:30.170 --> 00:49:32.120
what it happens
647
00:49:32.120 --> 00:49:37.750
yes just every note that yeah yeah it's not like I'm trying to do it well known
648
00:49:37.750 --> 00:49:41.760
I mean and when I say that you're trying to do it I don't mean you're
649
00:49:41.760 --> 00:49:42.120
voluntarily trying to do it
650
00:49:42.120 --> 00:49:49.630
a true yip like a true neurological dysfunction is environment independent
651
00:49:49.630 --> 00:49:56.120
meaning if you have the yips they should show up equally in your living room by
652
00:49:56.120 --> 00:50:01.120
yourself as Sunday in a match against your buddies
653
00:50:01.120 --> 00:50:06.850
but if they show up more likely when you are nervous or stressed then now we're
654
00:50:06.850 --> 00:50:13.780
talking about more of a stress induced kind of like spasm not a neurological y
655
00:50:13.780 --> 00:50:14.120
ip
656
00:50:14.120 --> 00:50:19.510
and so part of what will take away some of that spasm is creating more of this
657
00:50:19.510 --> 00:50:27.120
like stable facial tension
658
00:50:27.120 --> 00:50:37.390
so yeah so index finger of the lead hand that knuckle up against the capitate
659
00:50:37.390 --> 00:50:43.120
right there and then index finger of the lead hand on the
660
00:50:43.120 --> 00:50:55.440
one of these two knuckles here there's a little yeah there's just a little bit
661
00:50:55.440 --> 00:50:59.120
of tension in those two
662
00:50:59.120 --> 00:51:12.170
so then the like the wrist and the forearms aren't going to move a whole lot
663
00:51:12.170 --> 00:51:15.120
and then the stroke
664
00:51:15.120 --> 00:51:22.590
I was probably somewhere else I could see like potentially if you're pulling
665
00:51:22.590 --> 00:51:28.120
apart in an attempt to get your back like in an attempt to get your shoulders
666
00:51:28.120 --> 00:51:39.080
more engaged but I would rather have like the the pressure twisting in as far
667
00:51:39.080 --> 00:51:42.120
as the arms and hands
668
00:51:42.120 --> 00:51:55.240
like because I can make it two out of three five footers no probably not so
669
00:51:55.240 --> 00:51:59.490
hold it out there now pull your elbow pull your arm in front of your peck a
670
00:51:59.490 --> 00:52:01.120
little bit there you go
671
00:52:01.120 --> 00:52:05.670
now now you can feel if you try to move anything in your arm it all moves
672
00:52:05.670 --> 00:52:11.120
together go ahead feel that and the other the other thing is when you when you
673
00:52:11.120 --> 00:52:15.800
if you get comfortable and like at first it's like this right but as it gets as
674
00:52:15.800 --> 00:52:24.120
it gets comfortable like there so now I'll do this go ahead move my arm
675
00:52:24.120 --> 00:52:28.670
can you feel how like doesn't have a whole lot of tension but has a lot of
676
00:52:28.670 --> 00:52:31.120
stability compared to this
677
00:52:31.120 --> 00:52:37.410
yeah like this is way more yip prone when there's like it's like flopping
678
00:52:37.410 --> 00:52:44.170
around wherever well it was it's just kind of like subtle it's like twisting it
679
00:52:44.170 --> 00:52:45.120
like this
680
00:52:45.120 --> 00:52:52.630
here's the here's another one here's this I call it a stupid human trick so if
681
00:52:52.630 --> 00:52:58.170
you bring your arm up okay first one don't move your elbow turn palm up palm
682
00:52:58.170 --> 00:53:00.120
down
683
00:53:00.120 --> 00:53:13.870
okay now don't move your palm turn elbow up elbow down so basically this one
684
00:53:13.870 --> 00:53:17.750
when you turn elbow up if your palm didn't move you rotated the forearm in the
685
00:53:17.750 --> 00:53:22.120
opposite direction that's pretty much what it feels like there
686
00:53:22.120 --> 00:53:29.630
and it's very subtle so if you watch the elbow there's no tension there it's
687
00:53:29.630 --> 00:53:36.910
locked in so again that's where I don't know how well that would show up on a 3
688
00:53:36.910 --> 00:53:37.120
d
689
00:53:37.120 --> 00:53:46.760
uh-huh yeah yeah yeah well that's to here it would be like just disconnected
690
00:53:46.760 --> 00:53:52.320
there so now if I bring it in and then I could even like bend the arms and
691
00:53:52.320 --> 00:53:54.120
create some of that tension
692
00:53:54.120 --> 00:54:01.610
but the goal is to have it similar to how Stan says he wants you to use your
693
00:54:01.610 --> 00:54:10.120
wrist without looking wristy I want tension without you looking tense
694
00:54:10.120 --> 00:54:22.360
see how like it looks very stable you're welcome questions on putting green
695
00:54:22.360 --> 00:54:37.120
reading green reading
696
00:54:37.120 --> 00:54:47.360
why now I teach that every putt is a straight putt your whole goal like I'll
697
00:54:47.360 --> 00:54:53.120
basically say the process of putting is I'm always trying to roll a putt
698
00:54:53.120 --> 00:54:56.770
straight at a specific speed and then I'm going to use green reading and then
699
00:54:56.770 --> 00:55:00.120
alignment to aim where that straight putt is
700
00:55:00.120 --> 00:55:05.080
does that make sense so like you know I'll see people like hit a putt and then
701
00:55:05.080 --> 00:55:10.350
they'll like start trying to guide the face I'm like your feet didn't move how
702
00:55:10.350 --> 00:55:15.120
are you adjusting your putt they're like well I was close in the face
703
00:55:15.120 --> 00:55:19.670
like no you're gonna make the same stroke and if you don't like it you're gonna
704
00:55:19.670 --> 00:55:24.260
move your feet to change your alignment you're gonna you're not going to change
705
00:55:24.260 --> 00:55:32.600
the stroke so I personally wouldn't be a does I mean you're gonna like try and
706
00:55:32.600 --> 00:55:34.120
hook it when you have the other way
707
00:55:34.120 --> 00:55:39.120
when it's a left or right you hook it and when it's a right to left you cut it
708
00:55:39.120 --> 00:55:47.170
so you can take a more aggressive line. Did you come up with that? Yeah yeah
709
00:55:47.170 --> 00:55:54.120
innovative let me know how that goes what
710
00:55:54.120 --> 00:56:13.150
Stockton teaches that? Stockton teaches that? I guess I did. So no I didn't
711
00:56:13.150 --> 00:56:17.120
come up with it. Okay. I came up with it for me. Gotcha.
712
00:56:17.120 --> 00:56:28.390
Any any other questions on putting? I think there's a pretty big range from on
713
00:56:28.390 --> 00:56:35.200
top like eyes in line to a good amount in. I don't like them outside. I think
714
00:56:35.200 --> 00:56:39.670
that when you start having yeah I don't like your eyes pass the ball but other
715
00:56:39.670 --> 00:56:41.120
than that I'm not too
716
00:56:41.120 --> 00:56:52.970
as like I think there's a slight advantage to having your eyes on because then
717
00:56:52.970 --> 00:57:00.120
you can have them track a little bit better but
718
00:57:00.120 --> 00:57:10.120
What do you think? Should we go look at wedge play? Do you want green reading?
719
00:57:10.120 --> 00:57:15.620
My real quick take on green reading would be you're either going to read it
720
00:57:15.620 --> 00:57:18.620
with your feet or with your like you're either going to read it with your
721
00:57:18.620 --> 00:57:20.120
balance and your body awareness or with your eyes
722
00:57:20.120 --> 00:57:26.330
But your whole goal is to evaluate the slope of the surface between you and the
723
00:57:26.330 --> 00:57:34.920
hole. Yes? Well that's if it's not a uniform slope if it's more like a potato
724
00:57:34.920 --> 00:57:39.480
chip then you have to like kind of infer that either by looking at it or by
725
00:57:39.480 --> 00:57:45.270
feeling it. If you're going to look at it your eyes are better at seeing like
726
00:57:45.270 --> 00:57:47.120
depth this way rather than this way.
727
00:57:47.120 --> 00:57:52.370
So you need multiple views right so you're either so from behind the ball you
728
00:57:52.370 --> 00:57:55.850
can see left to right or right to left and then you go to the low side because
729
00:57:55.850 --> 00:58:02.290
it's easier to see detail into the slope rather than looking down at it. So you
730
00:58:02.290 --> 00:58:05.120
go to the low side so then you can start to see
731
00:58:05.120 --> 00:58:09.890
High low or you know uphill downhill and then really if you're using your eyes
732
00:58:09.890 --> 00:58:14.760
you want to kind of gather information for the last four to six feet when the
733
00:58:14.760 --> 00:58:20.120
appearance of the break is more significant. If you're feeling it then you
734
00:58:20.120 --> 00:58:24.120
basically just kind of take multiple reads of the slope you have to calibrate
735
00:58:24.120 --> 00:58:28.510
that's what the aim point classes teach you how to do. If you're curious about
736
00:58:28.510 --> 00:58:31.120
that it's a real quick I would recommend just taking their class.
737
00:58:31.120 --> 00:58:35.080
And you read from behind the ball. If you're reading the slope then you read it
738
00:58:35.080 --> 00:58:41.880
in between yourself in between your ball and the whole kind of the middle. Yeah
739
00:58:41.880 --> 00:58:46.820
so am I. If you're reading with your feet like so if I'm reading this plot if I
740
00:58:46.820 --> 00:58:51.260
was doing it with my eyes I would look from here I would look from here and I
741
00:58:51.260 --> 00:58:55.110
would look from here. If I'm feeling it with my feet then I would basically
742
00:58:55.110 --> 00:58:57.120
feel it here.
743
00:58:57.120 --> 00:59:05.270
Okay so you're reading from back here. Yeah. And from down there. So that's the
744
00:59:05.270 --> 00:59:10.120
slope. Right. But for the break it's either here or over there. Okay.
745
00:59:10.120 --> 00:59:14.260
And that one over there is reading around the hole and this one is reading the
746
00:59:14.260 --> 00:59:22.160
first part. Primarily so for people who are more visual I would so let's say I
747
00:59:22.160 --> 00:59:24.120
'm here. Okay it's right to left.
748
00:59:24.120 --> 00:59:29.870
I'm here I know it's uphill. So now from behind the hole I'm trying to see I'm
749
00:59:29.870 --> 00:59:34.110
trying to visualize like the surface around the hole how it's going to be
750
00:59:34.110 --> 00:59:37.120
crossing like where it's going to cross the hole.
751
00:59:37.120 --> 00:59:42.070
And then from there I'm going to try to work my way back in visualizing the
752
00:59:42.070 --> 00:59:48.090
actual path of the club or path of the ball. And so then I'm back here and if I
753
00:59:48.090 --> 00:59:53.120
use like lining it up I'm going to basically line it up with what I just saw.
754
00:59:53.120 --> 01:00:01.950
And then I'm going to basically try and like replicate. Didn't hit it hard
755
01:00:01.950 --> 01:00:05.120
enough. Yeah. Okay.
756
01:00:05.120 --> 01:00:09.120
But so that's kind of like more of the visual. If you do more of the feel and
757
01:00:09.120 --> 01:00:13.230
the aim point the big thing for aim point is you have to be really accurate
758
01:00:13.230 --> 01:00:17.140
with feeling feel and you have to have a really good system for how far away
759
01:00:17.140 --> 01:00:19.120
you adjust holding your hand.
760
01:00:19.120 --> 01:00:24.120
If you get those two skills then you don't really have to visualize anything.
761
01:00:24.120 --> 01:00:31.160
So for some people you have to get really good at being able to accurately feel
762
01:00:31.160 --> 01:00:34.120
the slope and with your body.
763
01:00:34.120 --> 01:00:39.070
Yeah. And then you have to get really good at accurately being able to gauge
764
01:00:39.070 --> 01:00:43.820
how far away should you hold your hand in order to get an accurate read for you
765
01:00:43.820 --> 01:00:44.120
.
766
01:00:44.120 --> 01:01:00.630
That's what I mean by you have to have a system for how to adjust it. The
767
01:01:00.630 --> 01:01:03.120
faster the green the more you would hold it.
768
01:01:03.120 --> 01:01:08.800
Like this is one way. As you hold it closer this space would take up more space
769
01:01:08.800 --> 01:01:09.120
.
770
01:01:09.120 --> 01:01:13.010
So the faster the green the more it's going to break so you would hold it
771
01:01:13.010 --> 01:01:16.120
closer to you. The further.
772
01:01:16.120 --> 01:01:21.570
Yes. I would say if you're curious about that like they explain it really well
773
01:01:21.570 --> 01:01:23.120
in an aim point class.
774
01:01:23.120 --> 01:01:26.500
I think it's a good thing to know. I don't think everybody has to use it when
775
01:01:26.500 --> 01:01:29.120
they learn it but I think it's a good system to know.
776
01:01:29.120 --> 01:01:36.500
That's probably a good one. I mean I think they know the math so well they don
777
01:01:36.500 --> 01:01:38.120
't. They don't even use the thing because they might just go 13 feet at 2% slope
778
01:01:38.120 --> 01:01:38.120
.
779
01:01:38.120 --> 01:01:44.120
Green's 13 that's 13 inches. Yeah. So then they just know it would just be a
780
01:01:44.120 --> 01:01:47.120
math equation. No kidding.
