00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.120
This concept video is connecting the wipe to supination.

2
00:00:09.120 --> 00:00:14.590
So I had a member question come in about having some trouble reconciling the

3
00:00:14.590 --> 00:00:16.360
wipe of the trail

4
00:00:16.360 --> 00:00:21.020
arm kind of working more across the body and the supination feeling like that

5
00:00:21.020 --> 00:00:22.080
lead arm

6
00:00:22.080 --> 00:00:23.080
rotates.

7
00:00:23.080 --> 00:00:27.210
His take was essentially that lead arm rotation is going to tend to cause that

8
00:00:27.210 --> 00:00:27.880
trail arm to

9
00:00:27.880 --> 00:00:32.730
go into more rotation and that wipe movement would feel like it's going to kind

10
00:00:32.730 --> 00:00:33.240
of hold

11
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:34.920
the arm off.

12
00:00:34.920 --> 00:00:39.150
The crux of that is where you're feeling the rotation and what's happening at

13
00:00:39.150 --> 00:00:39.720
the shoulder

14
00:00:39.720 --> 00:00:40.720
blades.

15
00:00:40.720 --> 00:00:47.360
So these two moves balance each other in a sense that the wipe helps create

16
00:00:47.360 --> 00:00:48.320
shaft lean

17
00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:55.240
and open the face and the supination helps close the face while lengthening the

18
00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:55.960
radius

19
00:00:55.960 --> 00:01:00.480
or we're moving the path a little bit further into out.

20
00:01:00.480 --> 00:01:05.800
So they complement each other as long as they're done in the appropriate zones.

21
00:01:05.800 --> 00:01:11.060
The wipe is more of a shoulder blade and kind of like inside of the armpit or I

22
00:01:11.060 --> 00:01:11.560
talk about

23
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:16.820
the seria santerior but it's more of a shoulder movement where the arm is

24
00:01:16.820 --> 00:01:17.880
working across this

25
00:01:17.880 --> 00:01:23.690
way instead of going into internal rotation and protraction and flying away

26
00:01:23.690 --> 00:01:24.640
from the body

27
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:25.640
like that.

28
00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:30.910
It's the wipe movement can feel more disconnected and it can also feel more

29
00:01:30.910 --> 00:01:32.120
like the arms are

30
00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:36.920
doing less and I'm hitting it more with my core and my hips.

31
00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:42.800
Now as I said if I do that on paper if I don't really, especially if I kind of

32
00:01:42.800 --> 00:01:43.880
maintain some

33
00:01:43.880 --> 00:01:50.530
of the connection in the trail hand, if I do that then oftentimes the ball is

34
00:01:50.530 --> 00:01:51.160
going to

35
00:01:51.160 --> 00:01:56.680
go off to the right unless I made a forearm rotation.

36
00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:01.860
Now that forearm rotation can be challenging to just do with the trail hand

37
00:02:01.860 --> 00:02:01.960
especially

38
00:02:01.960 --> 00:02:08.450
if I really kind of like overdo the body rotation it will tend to have a little

39
00:02:08.450 --> 00:02:09.400
bit more of

40
00:02:09.400 --> 00:02:13.360
a open club face situation.

41
00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:17.880
So the way that I'm going to balance it is by getting some forearm supination.

42
00:02:17.880 --> 00:02:22.720
I don't want to confuse that with going into internal rotation.

43
00:02:22.720 --> 00:02:27.470
The shoulder will go into internal rotation but ideally kind of from a pattern

44
00:02:27.470 --> 00:02:28.040
wise we're

45
00:02:28.040 --> 00:02:31.040
going to get the forearm to rotate first.

46
00:02:31.040 --> 00:02:34.350
You can see when I do this the elbow is staying pointing at the target as the

47
00:02:34.350 --> 00:02:35.200
forearm rotates

48
00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:40.380
and then as it gets closer to its end range motion the whole thing will rotate

49
00:02:40.380 --> 00:02:40.440
together.

50
00:02:40.440 --> 00:02:45.750
But for many golfers feeling it will feel like it's primarily a forearm

51
00:02:45.750 --> 00:02:46.800
movement and

52
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:48.800
not really a shoulder movement.

53
00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:54.200
But for a lot of golfers it's actually challenging to disconnect the two.

54
00:02:54.200 --> 00:02:58.700
Oftentimes I'll in kind of like a teaching phase I'll have you grab onto the

55
00:02:58.700 --> 00:02:59.520
elbow just

56
00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:04.240
like this and then rotate that forearm kind of like that.

57
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:09.840
Now if I did that with a club if I held onto that forearm and then let the or

58
00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:10.800
sorry held

59
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:15.050
onto the elbow and let the forearm rotate especially if I'm rotating my body

60
00:03:15.050 --> 00:03:15.680
you'll see

61
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:19.680
that as I'm making contact the elbow stays pointing a little bit more towards

62
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:20.320
the target

63
00:03:20.320 --> 00:03:22.320
compared to if it rotated like this.

64
00:03:22.320 --> 00:03:26.330
Yes if I lose that then this arm is typically going to get on top and it would

65
00:03:26.330 --> 00:03:26.880
be hard to

66
00:03:26.880 --> 00:03:28.200
create the white.

67
00:03:28.200 --> 00:03:31.480
But when the elbow is when the shoulder is more in this position so the elbow

68
00:03:31.480 --> 00:03:32.120
is pointing

69
00:03:32.120 --> 00:03:36.440
out you'll see that actually encourages the feel of that right shoulder working

70
00:03:36.440 --> 00:03:37.000
a little

71
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:39.040
bit more underneath.

72
00:03:39.040 --> 00:03:44.220
So in a 9 to 3 I could isolate either one of those I could feel either the

73
00:03:44.220 --> 00:03:45.120
shoulder working

74
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:50.550
the right shoulder down and around and through kind of staying connected or I

75
00:03:50.550 --> 00:03:51.720
could emphasize

76
00:03:51.720 --> 00:03:56.540
more the forearm rotation or supination and you can see if I do both of them

77
00:03:56.540 --> 00:03:57.160
then I'm

78
00:03:57.160 --> 00:04:02.590
going to get a very shallow bottom of the swing with kind of a widening radius

79
00:04:02.590 --> 00:04:02.880
and a

80
00:04:02.880 --> 00:04:05.840
club face that's rotating.

81
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:13.430
So if you look at video and you tend to have kind of more of a scoop here at

82
00:04:13.430 --> 00:04:14.520
the bottom

83
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:19.700
that could be a sign of either needing more of the wipe or more of the sup

84
00:04:19.700 --> 00:04:20.040
ination but

85
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:22.440
more likely it's both.

86
00:04:22.440 --> 00:04:24.960
Usually you'll have one that is kind of like more dominant and that's the one

87
00:04:24.960 --> 00:04:25.200
that your

88
00:04:25.200 --> 00:04:27.160
brain can go in on.

89
00:04:27.160 --> 00:04:32.930
You can either feel more of the lead arm kind of getting into this kind of like

90
00:04:32.930 --> 00:04:34.360
hit position

91
00:04:34.360 --> 00:04:38.200
right here or you'll feel more like this side comes through and there's just a

92
00:04:38.200 --> 00:04:39.320
little bit

93
00:04:39.320 --> 00:04:40.320
more of a release.

94
00:04:40.320 --> 00:04:44.300
But these two actually complement each other the only way they fight each other

95
00:04:44.300 --> 00:04:44.640
is if

96
00:04:44.640 --> 00:04:48.300
you're doing it from the wrong spot if you're doing it more from the shoulders

97
00:04:48.300 --> 00:04:48.760
instead

98
00:04:48.760 --> 00:04:55.860
of from kind of the body on the wipe side and the forearm on the supination

99
00:04:55.860 --> 00:04:56.760
side.

100
00:04:56.760 --> 00:05:10.800
So one more little demo if we get really good feeling of wipe and supination.

101
00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:14.720
Pretty solid.
