00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.200
This drill is hands high through impact and this is to help you overcome the
2
00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:08.880
cast or the upper body dominant swing pattern. So if you remember from the
3
00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:14.800
early extension swing pattern, early extenders who tend to go too much with
4
00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:19.120
their lower body, they tend to get the hands very very high because they swing
5
00:00:19.120 --> 00:00:23.360
very much from the inside. Well if you are a cast or upper body dominant
6
00:00:23.360 --> 00:00:27.040
swinger, you will tend to have your hands very low through the hitting area
7
00:00:27.040 --> 00:00:30.400
because the club is coming from the outside. So we're going to try to kind
8
00:00:30.400 --> 00:00:36.220
of balance the two. You are going to try and do the 9 to 3 drill where you're
9
00:00:36.220 --> 00:00:40.760
going to try to get your hands almost on top of the golf ball or as high as you
10
00:00:40.760 --> 00:00:45.440
can. So the movement is going to be going this way. Now I'm exaggerating it as
11
00:00:45.440 --> 00:00:45.760
much
12
00:00:45.760 --> 00:00:51.720
as I can for the purpose of this drill but that will help keep your path from
13
00:00:51.720 --> 00:00:55.800
going too much to the left and help you get used to the hands feeling like they
14
00:00:55.800 --> 00:01:00.040
extend more down the target line as opposed to going left. It's not actually
15
00:01:00.040 --> 00:01:03.320
what's going to happen but compared to what you're used to that's what it's
16
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:06.840
going to feel like. Because what you're used to is the club getting outside
17
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:07.200
here
18
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:13.000
and then the club working the hands working very much across the line through
19
00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:18.840
impact. You can see that they also and that also ends up cupping my wrist. If
20
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:20.000
you
21
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:25.760
get outside but then focus on holding the hands like so, it will feel like
22
00:01:25.760 --> 00:01:29.760
the club is continuing down the target line but it's really arching in on a
23
00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:34.400
more gentle rate instead of a more severe rate. What you can then do is you
24
00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:38.160
can work on keeping that back to the target as your hands come up and that
25
00:01:38.160 --> 00:01:42.880
will help work on this 9 to 3 drill on the proper path even a little bit more
26
00:01:42.880 --> 00:01:47.840
effectively. So work on getting your hands high the technical name for the
27
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:51.200
movement is owner deviation and you're going to work on trying to get a little
28
00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:53.900
little bit more of this hands-high as you come through impact.
