00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.600
This drill is hang back and brush so this is a great kind of constraint led

2
00:00:06.600 --> 00:00:07.000
drill

3
00:00:07.000 --> 00:00:12.600
for working on your wipe technique. So a lot of people or a lot of golfers who

4
00:00:12.600 --> 00:00:16.920
struggle with the wipe also struggle with side bend those two usually go

5
00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:23.080
hand-in-hand because if my upper body tends to tilt back like so if I was to

6
00:00:23.080 --> 00:00:27.720
just extend my arms out in front of my chest that by itself would move the

7
00:00:27.720 --> 00:00:31.300
bottom of the swing well behind the golf ball you can see that that's making

8
00:00:31.300 --> 00:00:36.140
contact with the ground well back here by my right foot. So the goal of hang

9
00:00:36.140 --> 00:00:36.440
back

10
00:00:36.440 --> 00:00:45.040
and brush forward is to get my upper body well behind so kind of almost over my

11
00:00:45.040 --> 00:00:49.480
right foot more like a driver position but then use my arms and use the wipe

12
00:00:49.480 --> 00:00:57.320
so that the club brushes the ground well ahead of the center of my stance. So

13
00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:02.600
almost as far up as my front foot if I can without getting the path way outside

14
00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:07.680
to end because it's very easy for some golfers to hang back kind of like so

15
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:13.240
and then brush go way outside and outside in in order to get the brush way

16
00:01:13.240 --> 00:01:16.880
forward that's what we're not not what we're trying to do we're trying to brush

17
00:01:16.880 --> 00:01:22.600
from the inside but still getting it to brush forward by using that white

18
00:01:22.600 --> 00:01:26.760
movement of the the arms working more across your body instead of straight out

19
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:32.440
in front so if you're practicing on the grass driving range you just take the

20
00:01:32.440 --> 00:01:36.640
tee and draw the line in the ground like we do in the line drill or the

21
00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:36.960
advanced

22
00:01:36.960 --> 00:01:41.080
line drill but if you're practicing inside which I know a lot of our members

23
00:01:41.080 --> 00:01:47.540
do you can take a towel and place it on the ground and this way if I let's set

24
00:01:47.540 --> 00:01:47.600
it

25
00:01:47.600 --> 00:01:51.680
up so that it's kind of pretty close to the middle of my stance so now if I do

26
00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:57.760
this little brush drill you can see I can get it to brush well ahead of the

27
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:02.880
towel kind of like so but if I didn't if I did that bad release you could see

28
00:02:02.880 --> 00:02:06.400
that I would get some feedback because I make contact with the towel so it just

29
00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:12.320
makes me a little bit more aware of the bottom of the swing or the kind of the

30
00:02:12.320 --> 00:02:20.880
the contact point and the brush point so you can do this either with 9 to 3 or

31
00:02:20.880 --> 00:02:27.760
working up to full swings but what I would do to start is the 9 to 3 version

32
00:02:27.760 --> 00:02:32.040
where you can either preset the brush so I'm gonna get or sorry preset that

33
00:02:32.040 --> 00:02:32.760
upper

34
00:02:32.760 --> 00:02:37.530
body way behind so I'm gonna get almost driverish get well behind but then

35
00:02:37.530 --> 00:02:38.200
still

36
00:02:38.200 --> 00:02:42.360
try and kind of exaggerate both of these to get the bottom of the swing

37
00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:47.840
forward or what's actually more challenging is I'm going to start in a

38
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:51.320
little bit more of a neutral or even leaning left pattern and then I'm gonna

39
00:02:51.320 --> 00:02:57.520
try and fall back and kind of hang back while that while I use the arms to move

40
00:02:57.520 --> 00:03:00.920
the bottom of the swing forward a lot of golfers who try and move the bottom of

41
00:03:00.920 --> 00:03:07.160
swing forward will do so more with their upper body kind of lunging forward

42
00:03:07.160 --> 00:03:08.160
like

43
00:03:08.160 --> 00:03:12.360
so it's not what we're trying to do when we're working on the white that's not

44
00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:15.200
what we're trying to do when we're trying to work on this side bend those

45
00:03:15.200 --> 00:03:20.800
two go hand-in-hand and have a kind of high carry over for the longer clubs

46
00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:25.400
like the three wood the hybrids and especially the driver so we'll give it a

47
00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:31.720
try and use the towel for a little bit of feedback okay so to set up the drill

48
00:03:31.720 --> 00:03:37.760
you give yourself about two inches or so between the towel and the golf wall

49
00:03:37.760 --> 00:03:43.040
that just gives you a little bit of wiggle room because you'll see that the

50
00:03:43.040 --> 00:03:47.480
towel kind of sits up in places it can make it a little bit more challenging

51
00:03:47.480 --> 00:03:51.760
and you want to get good feedback here so now we're going to position the golf

52
00:03:51.760 --> 00:03:57.400
ball just ahead of where you would normally play your mid-iron so in this

53
00:03:57.400 --> 00:04:03.440
case seven iron and then you're doing the 9 to 3 kind of focusing on the wipe

54
00:04:03.440 --> 00:04:09.960
aspect of that release so that first movement working a little bit more across

55
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:16.680
your body instead of straight out there so that first movement working more

56
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:24.920
across just like so instead of straight down so from the face-on view hanging

57
00:04:24.920 --> 00:04:31.800
back but using the side bend move or sorry using that side bend move to hang

58
00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:35.560
back but then using that white move in order to move the bottom the swing

59
00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:40.320
forward your goal is to get it so that you can do it without hitting it off to

60
00:04:40.320 --> 00:04:44.880
the right hitting it pretty straight and without hitting the towel even though

61
00:04:44.880 --> 00:04:49.000
you've got kind of a more forward ball position then you would normally play

62
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:54.040
with a shorter iron so I've got the towel a little bit on that one hopefully

63
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:57.920
you get the the gist and the purpose of why you would use the towel when

64
00:04:57.920 --> 00:04:58.160
working

65
00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:00.600
on the wipe
