After this video, you'll be able to:

  • Understand the correct follow through position to align your shots.
  • Practice the merry-go-round drill to develop better arm movement.
  • Learn to recognize and replicate the feeling of a solid follow through.

In this drill circuit, you'll learn how to enhance your follow through position, which is crucial for consistent ball striking. We'll guide you through specific drills that help reinforce proper technique and feel.

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.490
In this drill circuit video, we're going to go over the follow through position

2
00:00:05.490 --> 00:00:05.540
.

3
00:00:05.540 --> 00:00:09.000
So we're going to run through some of these drills that are in the follow

4
00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:09.760
through section,

5
00:00:09.760 --> 00:00:14.310
but again, this is just an example of ways that you can organize them, but this

6
00:00:14.310 --> 00:00:14.520
is one

7
00:00:14.520 --> 00:00:16.160
of my favorite circuits.

8
00:00:16.160 --> 00:00:21.690
So remembering follow through position is somewhere out here where the club's

9
00:00:21.690 --> 00:00:21.920
parallel

10
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:24.440
pointed at the target, somewhere out in there.

11
00:00:24.440 --> 00:00:27.000
Okay, how are we going to practice that?

12
00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:30.190
Next piece, we're going to set up to a golf ball, and we're going to do the

13
00:00:30.190 --> 00:00:32.340
merry-go-round.

14
00:00:32.340 --> 00:00:36.080
But this time, we're going to do the merry-go-round with the arms going to

15
00:00:36.080 --> 00:00:37.560
follow through position.

16
00:00:37.560 --> 00:00:40.870
So we're just going to practice that arm to follow through position, kind of

17
00:00:40.870 --> 00:00:41.600
something.

18
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:44.560
There we go, that was pretty good.

19
00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:47.440
Next one we're going to do is the check swing progression.

20
00:00:47.440 --> 00:00:51.660
So I'm going to swing, trying to get that same feeling of going through to that

21
00:00:51.660 --> 00:00:52.120
follow

22
00:00:52.120 --> 00:00:56.870
through position, paying attention to something, just because I'm a feel-

23
00:00:56.870 --> 00:00:58.160
related golfer.

24
00:00:58.160 --> 00:01:01.730
So now I'm going to start working that down towards the golf ball, just like so

25
00:01:01.730 --> 00:01:01.960
.

26
00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:06.820
I think on this next one, yeah, I didn't measure the distance right, but we can

27
00:01:06.820 --> 00:01:07.340
check

28
00:01:07.340 --> 00:01:08.340
that again.

29
00:01:08.340 --> 00:01:13.900
Remember, I'm not too worried in these movement-based drills if I hit solid

30
00:01:13.900 --> 00:01:14.880
contact.

31
00:01:14.880 --> 00:01:23.360
Check swing, check swing, check swing, that was a little better.

32
00:01:23.360 --> 00:01:30.130
So then we've got the hinge and hold, which is trying to recreate that same

33
00:01:30.130 --> 00:01:30.600
feeling over

34
00:01:30.600 --> 00:01:37.480
here where the club is still pointed outside of me instead of flipping.

35
00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:40.360
So if I check that, yup, that looks pretty good.

36
00:01:40.360 --> 00:01:52.920
Let's do it again.

37
00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:56.960
Hinge and hold.

38
00:01:56.960 --> 00:01:59.790
And then the last little piece I'm going to add to this is focusing on that

39
00:01:59.790 --> 00:02:00.380
right foot

40
00:02:00.380 --> 00:02:03.480
rolling as opposed to coming up, because I can feel that mine's coming up a

41
00:02:03.480 --> 00:02:04.760
little bit.

42
00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:10.520
So going back to that check swing, so we're going here, there's a little better

43
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:11.440
roll of

44
00:02:11.440 --> 00:02:20.440
the foot, just like so.

45
00:02:20.440 --> 00:02:24.660
You'll notice I did the best job with rolling the foot, and of those, I hit

46
00:02:24.660 --> 00:02:25.560
that the solid

47
00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:26.560
or the most solid.

48
00:02:26.560 --> 00:02:30.630
So that gives me a great little piece to learn off of, and I can run through

49
00:02:30.630 --> 00:02:31.340
this half a

50
00:02:31.340 --> 00:02:35.770
dozen times, a dozen times, before I move into random practice, before I move

51
00:02:35.770 --> 00:02:36.480
into playing

52
00:02:36.480 --> 00:02:37.000
games.
