00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.920
So this is the right arm jazzy Jeff move and this is what we'll use to complete

2
00:00:05.920 --> 00:00:09.480
the backswing after you've done your takeaway. So if you remember the one

3
00:00:09.480 --> 00:00:13.680
piece takeaway we're basically getting into this position here. Now the right

4
00:00:13.680 --> 00:00:19.320
arm jazzy Jeff move is doing basically what the arms will do from this position

5
00:00:19.320 --> 00:00:23.720
here right this takeaway position to the top of the swing and what's going to

6
00:00:23.720 --> 00:00:27.640
happen is the right arm is going to hinge and it's going to rotate just

7
00:00:27.640 --> 00:00:31.360
slightly. So you know one of my favorite shows growing up was the Fresh

8
00:00:31.360 --> 00:00:35.120
Prince of Eleir and they would always do the high five. Well that movement

9
00:00:35.120 --> 00:00:35.280
right

10
00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:39.800
there is pretty much what we want that right arm to do when we complete the

11
00:00:39.800 --> 00:00:45.440
backswing. So I'll show it again so the right arm is going to hinge the right

12
00:00:45.440 --> 00:00:49.960
arm is going to rotate slightly and it can the hand can move outside of the

13
00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:54.360
framework of your body. I just don't want that elbow to be moving out behind

14
00:00:54.360 --> 00:00:54.560
your

15
00:00:54.560 --> 00:00:59.350
body like so. You want to keep it roughly in front of the shoulder and the

16
00:00:59.350 --> 00:00:59.840
depth

17
00:00:59.840 --> 00:01:05.800
is going to come mostly from turning your body. So you can practice just doing

18
00:01:05.800 --> 00:01:09.520
the arm position in the jazzy Jeff move by going from here keeping this left

19
00:01:09.520 --> 00:01:15.160
arm relatively straight and letting it hinge up just like so. And you'll notice

20
00:01:15.160 --> 00:01:18.560
that when I'm up here there's been a little bit of rotation so that the palm

21
00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:25.000
is almost facing me as opposed to it pointing straight at my head like so. So

22
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:29.200
with a club you go to that takeaway position and then there's that right arm

23
00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:37.880
jazzy Jeff move. So here I would do like so. This is the jazzy Jeff move. We're

24
00:01:37.880 --> 00:01:42.160
kind of like throwing salt over your shoulder. You're going to do that one

25
00:01:42.160 --> 00:01:45.920
piece takeaway and then you're going to do that right arm jazzy Jeff move and

26
00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:46.080
it

27
00:01:46.080 --> 00:01:51.840
helps set the club on the proper plane so that or in the proper position so

28
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:56.880
that during transition you'll be able to load your transition move that you've

29
00:01:56.880 --> 00:02:00.080
been practicing without too much compensation. So that's the right arm

30
00:02:00.080 --> 00:02:03.960
jazzy Jeff move for completing the backswing.
