00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.500
Where is it was?

2
00:00:01.500 --> 00:00:03.800
Not in R&A, I'm so mad.

3
00:00:03.800 --> 00:00:08.760
Yeah, so let's just kind of game plan a little bit.

4
00:00:08.760 --> 00:00:11.120
So the goal is primarily the release, right?

5
00:00:11.120 --> 00:00:15.320
Like, when you say just ball striking, do you keep stats at all?

6
00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:16.560
Do you know where it breaks down?

7
00:00:16.560 --> 00:00:18.360
Do you know, like, is it more--

8
00:00:18.360 --> 00:00:21.520
So I haven't played a lot this year, but usually--

9
00:00:21.520 --> 00:00:24.000
like, I could beat people with my wedges.

10
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:24.500
OK.

11
00:00:24.500 --> 00:00:28.320
But really, my driver at longer clubs, you know,

12
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:29.560
a kid will kill me.

13
00:00:29.560 --> 00:00:32.640
Like I said, lost a distance and driver will kill me.

14
00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:36.600
I was hitting-- you know, my misses were pulls or hooks.

15
00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:37.240
Yeah.

16
00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:39.680
So I waked in my grip a little bit.

17
00:00:39.680 --> 00:00:43.200
So I was more over here, and I'm about right here now.

18
00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:44.880
OK.

19
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:52.080
And then I started hitting a little bit of pushes.

20
00:00:52.080 --> 00:00:54.600
So they weren't hooks, so I started a little bit of pushes.

21
00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:57.800
So lately, though, when I've been working on,

22
00:00:57.800 --> 00:01:01.520
I've been doing these, like, in between and practicing

23
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:04.000
that when I was going to play, it was--

24
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:05.720
I was starting to hit it better, though.

25
00:01:05.720 --> 00:01:05.920
OK.

26
00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:07.240
I was starting to strike it better.

27
00:01:07.240 --> 00:01:07.760
OK.

28
00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:10.720
But, yeah, so in a round, it's usually not short game.

29
00:01:10.720 --> 00:01:11.800
Short game is what I don't--

30
00:01:11.800 --> 00:01:13.240
Yeah, yeah.

31
00:01:13.240 --> 00:01:17.520
So if we broke it down, let's say, 160 to 100 yards,

32
00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:21.360
and then 160 to 220.

33
00:01:21.360 --> 00:01:24.600
160 to 2, or 160 and above.

34
00:01:24.600 --> 00:01:26.000
170 and above.

35
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:28.080
So 79, I'm going to hit, like, 165.

36
00:01:28.080 --> 00:01:28.440
OK.

37
00:01:28.440 --> 00:01:31.400
So above, usually above, 79.

38
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:32.120
27 is 6.

39
00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:35.000
I'm pretty decent with-- above that is--

40
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:36.080
Is where we get into trouble.

41
00:01:36.080 --> 00:01:36.080
OK.

42
00:01:36.080 --> 00:01:36.800
It's definitely a drop.

43
00:01:36.800 --> 00:01:41.760
Like, driver, I have a round where, like I said,

44
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:44.040
every time I hit those, the pull hooks.

45
00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:48.520
And then sometimes I find out that I get here,

46
00:01:48.520 --> 00:01:51.400
and I still get a little behind it, too, sometimes.

47
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:54.960
Like, in the middle of a round, that's where it'll just go haywire.

48
00:01:54.960 --> 00:01:55.480
OK.

49
00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:57.320
And then I'll go to something else.

50
00:01:57.320 --> 00:02:00.200
So I can beat people if I'm, like, 6,500.

51
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:04.600
If I go back to 68, 69, I'm going to have a day in catch.

52
00:02:04.600 --> 00:02:05.600
OK.

53
00:02:05.600 --> 00:02:09.600
Well, then let's go, let's go, like, 6 iron to start.

54
00:02:09.600 --> 00:02:10.440
OK.

55
00:02:10.440 --> 00:02:11.280
That helped.

56
00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:12.280
So--

57
00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:14.440
Do you have 6 iron different from all the others?

58
00:02:14.440 --> 00:02:15.920
So my 7 iron is different.

59
00:02:15.920 --> 00:02:16.400
OK.

60
00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:17.320
It's a replacement.

61
00:02:17.320 --> 00:02:17.760
Gotcha.

62
00:02:17.760 --> 00:02:18.760
This is different.

63
00:02:18.760 --> 00:02:19.760
This is different.

64
00:02:19.760 --> 00:02:20.600
[INAUDIBLE]

65
00:02:20.600 --> 00:02:27.920
It's right here.

66
00:02:27.920 --> 00:02:28.920
Yeah.

67
00:02:28.920 --> 00:02:30.920
OK.

68
00:02:30.920 --> 00:02:33.640
And am I doing another 3D, or just right with--

69
00:02:33.640 --> 00:02:35.600
OK.

70
00:02:35.600 --> 00:02:39.200
So let's just do regular for right now,

71
00:02:39.200 --> 00:02:40.640
and then I'll have you--

72
00:02:40.640 --> 00:02:41.600
we'll collect some data.

73
00:02:41.600 --> 00:02:43.360
So go ahead.

74
00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:44.920
Just do a regular stock shot.

75
00:02:44.920 --> 00:02:50.360
[INAUDIBLE]

76
00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:53.860
[MUSIC PLAYING]

77
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:16.040
All right.

78
00:03:16.040 --> 00:03:17.240
Let me see a 9 to 3.

79
00:03:17.240 --> 00:03:18.240
[INAUDIBLE]

80
00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:38.920
Dude, again, that's your 9 to 3?

81
00:03:38.920 --> 00:03:40.640
How far am I going to go back?

82
00:03:40.640 --> 00:03:44.880
Uh, like, 3/4.

83
00:03:44.880 --> 00:03:45.880
Ah, 3/4?

84
00:03:45.880 --> 00:03:46.880
Yeah.

85
00:03:46.880 --> 00:03:47.880
OK.

86
00:03:47.880 --> 00:03:59.880
So can you see on the screen ahead of you?

87
00:03:59.880 --> 00:04:00.880
Yeah.

88
00:04:00.880 --> 00:04:01.380
OK.

89
00:04:01.380 --> 00:04:02.380
I still have a 2/4.

90
00:04:02.380 --> 00:04:02.880
OK.

91
00:04:02.880 --> 00:04:03.880
That's your 9 to 3.

92
00:04:03.880 --> 00:04:14.920
[INAUDIBLE]

93
00:04:14.920 --> 00:04:21.440
All right, so now let me see your right arm only.

94
00:04:21.440 --> 00:04:22.480
But hold on one second.

95
00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:24.200
I want to get the first one of these for sure.

96
00:04:24.200 --> 00:04:26.000
So go ahead and do another 9 to 3, if you want.

97
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:28.000
OK.

98
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:29.000
Right.

99
00:04:32.440 --> 00:04:36.880
That's a little slow.

100
00:04:36.880 --> 00:04:46.800
[MUSIC PLAYING]

101
00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:47.800
OK.

102
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:48.800
So right arm only.

103
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:50.160
Dude, what do you know about a 3 or a right arm?

104
00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:51.000
Right arm only is good.

105
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:52.000
Let's go ahead.

106
00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:57.940
[INAUDIBLE]

107
00:04:57.940 --> 00:04:59.440
OK.

108
00:04:59.440 --> 00:05:01.840
And now left arm only.

109
00:05:01.840 --> 00:05:02.840
Hold.

110
00:05:02.840 --> 00:05:03.840
In a second.

112
00:05:04.840 --> 00:05:05.840

118
00:05:30.840 --> 00:05:31.840
Go ahead.

119
00:05:31.840 --> 00:05:32.840
Left arm.

120
00:05:32.840 --> 00:05:33.840
Left arm.

121

There's some issues there, huh?

124
00:05:41.840 --> 00:05:42.840
[LAUGHTER]

125
00:05:42.840 --> 00:05:43.840

129
00:06:00.840 --> 00:06:07.840
So take a look at some of this stuff.

130
00:06:07.840 --> 00:06:08.840
Now let me see.

131
00:06:08.840 --> 00:06:10.840
That's a 6 iron?

132
00:06:10.840 --> 00:06:11.840
Yes.

133
00:06:11.840 --> 00:06:14.840
Let me see like a 3 wood.

00:06:14.840 --> 00:06:15.840
3 wood.

[INAUDIBLE]

187
00:07:13.840 --> 00:07:14.840
[INAUDIBLE]

188
00:07:14.840 --> 00:07:21.840
[INAUDIBLE]

189
00:07:21.840 --> 00:07:22.840
[INAUDIBLE]

190
00:07:22.840 --> 00:07:43.840
[INAUDIBLE]

191
00:07:43.840 --> 00:07:44.680
Okay.

192
00:07:44.680 --> 00:07:53.760
Hit one more, aim it at the red and white pole

193
00:07:53.760 --> 00:07:54.960
at the back of the range.

194
00:07:54.960 --> 00:07:59.220
- It's the red and white.

195
00:07:59.220 --> 00:08:00.720
- Yeah, we call it the candy cane.

196
00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:02.860
You see it's very back like 250 out.

197
00:08:02.860 --> 00:08:06.440
- Oh man, I can't see that sucker.

198
00:08:06.440 --> 00:08:09.100
- The left edge of the green, of the right green.

199
00:08:13.940 --> 00:08:15.460
- You see the red and white pole?

200
00:08:15.460 --> 00:08:16.300
- No way.

201
00:08:16.300 --> 00:08:17.140
- Oh, right there.

202
00:08:17.140 --> 00:08:18.060
Oh, that red and white pole.

203
00:08:18.060 --> 00:08:18.900
Sorry, in the back guys.

204
00:08:18.900 --> 00:08:19.720
- No worries.

205
00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:21.380
- Just aim in there.

206
00:08:21.380 --> 00:08:23.780
That's kind of like close to square to the building.

207
00:08:44.680 --> 00:08:48.000
What's going on with the shoulder?

208
00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:48.840
- Huh?

209
00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:50.320
- What's going on with the shoulder?

210
00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:52.740
- Yeah, I don't know if it's the flight.

211
00:08:52.740 --> 00:08:54.240
Play all of them.

212
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:57.820
- All right, grab like your seven iron.

213
00:08:57.820 --> 00:09:02.080
Well, let's get to work a little bit.

214
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:05.120
And how do you learn best?

215
00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:08.720
Do you like, you want to look at it on video

216
00:09:08.720 --> 00:09:09.560
and talk about it?

217
00:09:09.560 --> 00:09:11.320
Do you want to be put in positions?

218
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:14.080
Do you want like, are you more feel

219
00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:16.120
or are you more visual or are you more?

220
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:17.920
- I'm a video, I'm a techy.

221
00:09:17.920 --> 00:09:18.760
- Okay.

222
00:09:18.760 --> 00:09:22.320
- So, video, talk to me, you can put me in position

223
00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:27.320
to show me to play any videos working best.

224
00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:29.600
- Okay.

225
00:09:29.600 --> 00:09:34.000
- But you might have to do both because I watch,

226
00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:35.080
even though I watch the videos,

227
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:37.080
I know I'm missing something.

228
00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:43.560
- Well, visual can also be from your perspective.

229
00:09:43.560 --> 00:09:45.360
We got to make it look a certain way

230
00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:46.680
- Okay.

231
00:09:46.680 --> 00:09:48.200
- From your perspective.

232
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:54.840
- So, you'll be staying on it?

233
00:09:54.840 --> 00:09:57.440
- We're going to work on the release

234
00:09:57.440 --> 00:09:58.960
'cause that's what we said our first goal is

235
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:01.240
and then we'll see what's left after that.

236
00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:05.200
All right, so come on over here if you want to have.

237
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:06.040
- Okay.

238
00:10:06.040 --> 00:10:06.880
- Relax.

239
00:10:06.880 --> 00:10:07.720
- Okay, relax.

240
00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:08.560
- Cool.

241
00:10:10.440 --> 00:10:11.720
- Watch your upper body lunge.

242
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:12.560
- Okay, right, right.

243
00:10:12.560 --> 00:10:13.640
- So, do it again.

244
00:10:13.640 --> 00:10:14.800
- That was another thing I was doing

245
00:10:14.800 --> 00:10:17.040
until you came out with another video

246
00:10:17.040 --> 00:10:19.360
and we were talking about like, you know,

247
00:10:19.360 --> 00:10:20.440
sometimes.

248
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:21.280
- Relax that.

249
00:10:21.280 --> 00:10:22.120
Relax that.

250
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:24.720
- Good.

251
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:26.600
So, what does that feel like on the way through?

252
00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:28.640
Now, you're a little past the ball now.

253
00:10:28.640 --> 00:10:30.040
We've lost our setup a bit.

254
00:10:30.040 --> 00:10:33.120
Good.

255
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:33.920
What does that feel like?

256
00:10:33.920 --> 00:10:34.760
What's different there?

257
00:10:34.760 --> 00:10:37.200
- Uh, more extension.

258
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:38.040
- More extension?

259
00:10:38.040 --> 00:10:38.880
- Yeah.

260
00:10:38.880 --> 00:10:40.120
- That feels like more extension.

261
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:41.400
- Go ahead and try that move.

262
00:10:41.400 --> 00:10:44.000
- But before I guess I was going like this.

263
00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:44.840
- Mm-hmm.

264
00:10:44.840 --> 00:10:45.680
- That more out.

265
00:10:45.680 --> 00:10:46.520
- Okay.

266
00:10:46.520 --> 00:10:56.200
So, I want you to try and finish low,

267
00:10:56.200 --> 00:10:57.640
like with the club down.

268
00:10:57.640 --> 00:11:02.640
Basically, I want to try and finish with the club

269
00:11:02.640 --> 00:11:06.800
below my hands instead of up here.

270
00:11:06.800 --> 00:11:07.640
- All right.

271
00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:09.800
All right.

272
00:11:09.800 --> 00:11:13.240
Good.

273
00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:19.360
Pretty good.

274
00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:20.200
Okay.

275
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:22.120
So, put your left hand on there.

276
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:23.040
Good.

277
00:11:23.040 --> 00:11:24.320
So, what's different there,

278
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:25.520
compared to where you would normally be

279
00:11:25.520 --> 00:11:26.440
at this point in this one?

280
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:27.280
Okay.

281
00:11:27.280 --> 00:11:28.960
Good.

282
00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:30.600
So, now do right hand only.

283
00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:31.520
We'll practice one.

284
00:11:31.520 --> 00:11:33.920
Come on through.

285
00:11:33.920 --> 00:11:35.920
Put your left hand on.

286
00:11:35.920 --> 00:11:37.880
Okay.

287
00:11:37.880 --> 00:11:39.120
What's different there?

288
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:40.840
- I feel more extended.

289
00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:41.680
- Okay.

290
00:11:41.680 --> 00:11:42.520
- From everywhere in the spine.

291
00:11:42.520 --> 00:11:43.360
- Everywhere in the spine.

292
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:44.200
- Everywhere in the spine.

293
00:11:44.200 --> 00:11:45.040
- Yeah.

294
00:11:45.040 --> 00:11:47.320
- Okay, I did the spine before.

295
00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:48.160
- Two.

296
00:11:48.160 --> 00:11:49.000
- All right.

297
00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:51.800
- Let me see both hands.

298
00:11:51.800 --> 00:11:52.640
- Both hands.

299
00:11:52.640 --> 00:11:54.600
- Just try to feel that same extended position.

300
00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:55.440
- Sure.

301
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:56.280
- Yep.

302
00:11:56.280 --> 00:11:59.920
We're gonna try and stop kind of in that same zone.

303
00:11:59.920 --> 00:12:01.760
Good.

304
00:12:01.760 --> 00:12:02.600
That's not too bad.

305
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:08.080
That's the same thing.

306
00:12:08.080 --> 00:12:08.920
- Yep.

307
00:12:08.920 --> 00:12:17.720
- Okay.

308
00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:19.840
All right, let me see.

309
00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:21.360
- I feel definitely more stretch.

310
00:12:21.360 --> 00:12:22.840
- So, good.

311
00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:24.200
Let me see left hand only.

312
00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:33.560
That's still hit way too much with the arm.

313
00:12:33.560 --> 00:12:36.640
All right, let me see right hand only.

314
00:12:36.640 --> 00:12:38.200
A little practice swing.

315
00:12:38.200 --> 00:12:39.040
- Practice swing.

316
00:12:39.040 --> 00:12:39.880
- Yep.

317
00:12:39.880 --> 00:12:40.720
Come on down.

318
00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:41.560
Good.

319
00:12:41.560 --> 00:12:42.400
Put your left hand on.

320
00:12:42.400 --> 00:12:44.280
Take your right hand off.

321
00:12:44.280 --> 00:12:46.280
How much more body turn do you have there?

322
00:12:46.280 --> 00:12:48.080
And how much more connection do you have there

323
00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:49.760
than you would normally feel?

324
00:12:49.760 --> 00:12:50.600
- Yeah.

325
00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:53.800
- So, that left arm only is really a sequence drill.

326
00:12:53.800 --> 00:12:55.920
So, if I keep that connection there,

327
00:12:55.920 --> 00:12:59.320
then it's my body turn that kind of brings that arm through.

328
00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:01.600
Instead of me just trying to hit it with the,

329
00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:04.680
like a lateral raise, you know, hit it with the shoulder.

330
00:13:04.680 --> 00:13:06.840
- Yeah, 'cause that's what I'm thinking

331
00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:08.880
I need to do this and hit it.

332
00:13:08.880 --> 00:13:11.400
- Yeah, but the direction there is really key.

333
00:13:11.400 --> 00:13:14.480
So, if I'm doing the left arm only,

334
00:13:14.480 --> 00:13:16.160
it's like out in front of my chest,

335
00:13:16.160 --> 00:13:17.640
it's not over there.

336
00:13:17.640 --> 00:13:20.000
So, it's not like I'm trying to roll it that way.

337
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:21.640
I'm trying to roll it that way.

338
00:13:21.640 --> 00:13:22.480
- Okay.

339
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:26.440
- And so, that's where like what brings it through,

340
00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:30.140
watch out, is more of the body rotation.

341
00:13:30.140 --> 00:13:32.440
Can you see that?

342
00:13:32.440 --> 00:13:33.280
- Yeah.

343
00:13:33.280 --> 00:13:41.680
- Keep turning your body.

344
00:13:41.680 --> 00:13:42.520
Good.

345
00:13:42.520 --> 00:13:45.040
So, you feel that relationship,

346
00:13:45.040 --> 00:13:46.880
this is where we're trying to get to left arm only.

347
00:13:46.880 --> 00:13:49.480
Keep that relationship turned back with the body to impact,

348
00:13:49.480 --> 00:13:50.320
get back to there.

349
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:54.720
That's what it feels like on the way through.

350
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:55.560
- Good.

351
00:13:55.560 --> 00:13:57.160
- That's definitely a bigger stretch then.

352
00:13:57.160 --> 00:13:58.400
- Good, let me see that.

353
00:13:58.400 --> 00:14:00.720
- It's like long, right?

354
00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:01.560
- Yeah.

355
00:14:01.560 --> 00:14:06.120
- Not bad.

356
00:14:06.120 --> 00:14:08.680
Had a little hit from the wrist.

357
00:14:08.680 --> 00:14:11.680
We're just gonna keep it down there instead of letting it,

358
00:14:11.680 --> 00:14:13.080
you know, instead of kind of

359
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:15.000
looking at it, a little forehand topspin.

360
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:25.840
Very good.

361
00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:32.760
Okay, I'm gonna record one.

362
00:14:32.760 --> 00:14:33.600
Go ahead.

363
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:36.880
- Same way.

364
00:14:36.880 --> 00:14:37.720
- Yep.

365
00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:39.120
So, left arm only there.

366
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:40.520
Actually, hold on one second.

367
00:14:40.520 --> 00:14:43.600
Okay, go ahead.

368
00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:48.200
Good.

369
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:52.880
So, we'll work through that some more, but.

370
00:14:52.880 --> 00:14:55.360
So, from impact through that,

371
00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:56.600
to the follow through position,

372
00:14:56.600 --> 00:14:58.160
hit it more with the body turn

373
00:14:58.160 --> 00:15:02.240
unless with the arm pull.

374
00:15:02.240 --> 00:15:06.400
So, it'll feel, yep.

375
00:15:06.400 --> 00:15:08.920
So, athletically, I teach it kind of like this.

376
00:15:08.920 --> 00:15:10.560
Hold this in your left hand.

377
00:15:10.560 --> 00:15:11.400
- Left hand.

378
00:15:11.400 --> 00:15:12.240
- Yep.

379
00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:13.640
And then, I want you to imagine

380
00:15:13.640 --> 00:15:16.760
that you're just gonna throw the ball away

381
00:15:16.760 --> 00:15:18.000
from you kind of like this.

382
00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:24.040
And notice how the hand stays in front.

383
00:15:24.040 --> 00:15:26.800
Go ahead.

384
00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:29.040
Good.

385
00:15:29.040 --> 00:15:31.280
So, feel how that stays connected there.

386
00:15:31.280 --> 00:15:32.160
Do it one more time.

387
00:15:32.160 --> 00:15:38.160
Relax that.

388
00:15:38.160 --> 00:15:40.200
- So, still my shoulder wants to come up.

389
00:15:40.200 --> 00:15:42.560
- Yeah, you wanna do it with your deltoids

390
00:15:42.560 --> 00:15:44.000
and your shoulder and your,

391
00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:47.240
maybe even a little trap, good.

392
00:15:47.240 --> 00:15:49.680
Relax that.

393
00:15:49.680 --> 00:15:51.040
So, get back to that position.

394
00:15:51.040 --> 00:15:53.800
Soften your arm.

395
00:15:53.800 --> 00:15:56.640
Keep turning your body.

396
00:15:56.640 --> 00:15:57.880
Soften your arm.

397
00:15:57.880 --> 00:15:58.720
Good.

398
00:15:58.720 --> 00:15:59.760
Feel that there.

399
00:15:59.760 --> 00:16:03.040
So, the club's gonna have a little pull like this.

400
00:16:03.040 --> 00:16:04.520
Keep turning your body.

401
00:16:04.520 --> 00:16:05.600
Good.

402
00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:07.600
Feel that, how those kind of line up.

403
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:10.480
You're gonna feel that pull on the way through.

404
00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:12.920
Yep.

405
00:16:12.920 --> 00:16:13.760
That was better.

406
00:16:13.760 --> 00:16:16.960
Okay.

407
00:16:16.960 --> 00:16:19.760
- Wow, if I'm all at a place like that in a while.

408
00:16:19.760 --> 00:16:22.880
- Drive hole, baby.

409
00:16:22.880 --> 00:16:23.720
- I know.

410
00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:24.560
- Yeah.

411
00:16:24.560 --> 00:16:25.400
(laughing)

412
00:16:25.400 --> 00:16:27.240
- No, I always tell, yeah.

413
00:16:27.240 --> 00:16:29.760
Good golf is an ab and butt workout.

414
00:16:29.760 --> 00:16:30.760
- It is, man.

415
00:16:30.760 --> 00:16:33.720
- Better.

416
00:16:33.720 --> 00:16:35.720
Less hit from the arm.

417
00:16:35.720 --> 00:16:38.480
So, bring it back.

418
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:40.240
Actually, hold it out in front of you.

419
00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:42.440
Hinge it like this.

420
00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:43.280
Good.

421
00:16:43.280 --> 00:16:44.640
And now, just point it at the camera.

422
00:16:44.640 --> 00:16:45.480
Good.

423
00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:46.320
(dog barks)

424
00:16:46.320 --> 00:16:48.000
Now, turn your body.

425
00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:49.360
Keep turning your body.

426
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:52.360
That's where we're finishing.

427
00:16:52.360 --> 00:16:54.560
Okay.

428
00:16:54.560 --> 00:16:55.760
So, you bring it back.

429
00:16:55.760 --> 00:16:57.600
You just throw the club out in front of you.

430
00:16:57.600 --> 00:16:59.200
Keep turning your body.

431
00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:00.200
Keep turning your body.

432
00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:01.280
And when you turn your body,

433
00:17:01.280 --> 00:17:02.440
that's gonna bring the club through.

434
00:17:02.440 --> 00:17:03.280
- So, see.

435
00:17:03.280 --> 00:17:04.120
- So, like, yeah.

436
00:17:04.120 --> 00:17:05.760
- When is the throw is,

437
00:17:05.760 --> 00:17:08.000
should it be first?

438
00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:08.840
- Yep.

439
00:17:08.840 --> 00:17:10.160
- Or, I mean, or should I feel that

440
00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:12.720
because I'm moving my hands more?

441
00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:13.920
- Here, like, I'll show you the timing.

442
00:17:13.920 --> 00:17:15.440
So, stand right over there.

443
00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:19.200
So, basically, right in here,

444
00:17:19.200 --> 00:17:22.480
early on, is that throw move.

445
00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:25.080
So, now it's out in front of me like this.

446
00:17:25.080 --> 00:17:26.560
Or, it's getting there.

447
00:17:26.560 --> 00:17:28.640
So, that throw move is going that way.

448
00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:31.680
At the same time, my body is going that way.

449
00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:34.480
So, my wrist is throwing it like this,

450
00:17:34.480 --> 00:17:36.200
as my body is turning through.

451
00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:40.520
Instead of, you're kind of throwing the club

452
00:17:40.520 --> 00:17:44.480
more at the target, instead of out that way.

453
00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:48.360
So, what ends up happening is they work in pairs.

454
00:17:48.360 --> 00:17:51.640
If I throw this at the target,

455
00:17:51.640 --> 00:17:53.760
then my body stops in order to make my shoulder

456
00:17:53.760 --> 00:17:55.640
more powerful for going that way.

457
00:17:55.640 --> 00:17:57.320
So, my body is back here,

458
00:17:57.320 --> 00:17:59.800
and I'm throwing the club there with my arms.

459
00:17:59.800 --> 00:18:04.000
Instead, I want to throw my club there back,

460
00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:07.160
and I turn my body through forward.

461
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:10.720
So, the body goes forward, the hand keeps it back,

462
00:18:10.720 --> 00:18:13.560
versus my hand's taking it forward,

463
00:18:13.560 --> 00:18:15.000
and my body's staying back.

464
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:17.440
So, timing-wise, you can watch.

465
00:18:17.440 --> 00:18:19.520
I'll do it in kind of slow motion.

466
00:18:19.520 --> 00:18:21.320
There's kind of that throw,

467
00:18:21.320 --> 00:18:23.120
and then watch on the way through.

468
00:18:24.760 --> 00:18:27.320
Notice how, on the way through,

469
00:18:27.320 --> 00:18:29.640
it just kind of like stays out there.

470
00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:30.760
It wasn't like.

471
00:18:30.760 --> 00:18:33.160
- Right.

472
00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:35.360
- There wasn't really a hit from the arm,

473
00:18:35.360 --> 00:18:37.960
the hit is more from the body on the left arm only.

474
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:42.200
- Yeah, so I know I had to come on you into shit.

475
00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:43.600
- To get some of these details?

476
00:18:43.600 --> 00:18:44.440
- Yeah, you know what I mean,

477
00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:45.280
'cause that's what I mean.

478
00:18:45.280 --> 00:18:46.440
- So, when you go back and re-watch

479
00:18:46.440 --> 00:18:47.480
the left arm only video,

480
00:18:47.480 --> 00:18:48.640
you'll hear all this stuff,

481
00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:50.320
but until you experience it.

482
00:18:50.320 --> 00:18:52.800
- Boy, I forgot what you call this one.

483
00:18:52.800 --> 00:18:54.240
- On hinge or ulnar deviation?

484
00:18:54.240 --> 00:18:57.000
- Yeah, the ulnar deviation on the hinge.

485
00:18:57.000 --> 00:18:59.720
Like, I was thinking all the wrong stuff.

486
00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:01.560
Like, 'cause I would essentially get a fact,

487
00:19:01.560 --> 00:19:04.960
'cause I'm like, what the, I can't just go hand straight,

488
00:19:04.960 --> 00:19:06.800
because I'm down with these steepness

489
00:19:06.800 --> 00:19:08.240
just coming straight down to the ground.

490
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:10.560
- Right, but now you're kind of seeing it.

491
00:19:10.560 --> 00:19:11.400
- Right, right, right.

492
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:12.240
- Correct.

493
00:19:12.240 --> 00:19:13.080
- I understand.

494
00:19:13.080 --> 00:19:14.040
- That controls the width

495
00:19:14.040 --> 00:19:15.520
and helps create the flat spot.

496
00:19:15.520 --> 00:19:16.360
Good.

497
00:19:16.360 --> 00:19:18.600
Good.

498
00:19:18.600 --> 00:19:21.360
So, it's gonna, it's gonna un-hinge there,

499
00:19:21.360 --> 00:19:23.960
keep turning through, keep turning through,

500
00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:25.920
keep turning through, keep this connection.

501
00:19:25.920 --> 00:19:26.920
Good.

502
00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:27.760
That's it.

503
00:19:27.760 --> 00:19:30.400
- So, I need to focus more on this than this right side.

504
00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:32.120
- I mean, you could feel like the right side

505
00:19:32.120 --> 00:19:33.880
is turning it through,

506
00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:36.680
or you could feel like the left side is staying connected.

507
00:19:36.680 --> 00:19:37.520
It does.

508
00:19:37.520 --> 00:19:38.360
- Doesn't matter.

509
00:19:38.360 --> 00:19:39.280
- It does the same thing.

510
00:19:39.280 --> 00:19:41.120
Some guys like, either one.

511
00:19:41.120 --> 00:19:42.280
Good.

512
00:19:42.280 --> 00:19:43.560
And that's where, I can't tell you

513
00:19:43.560 --> 00:19:44.400
what it's gonna feel like,

514
00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:46.040
but I can give you references, right?

515
00:19:46.040 --> 00:19:46.880
- Right, no, no, no, that's the one.

516
00:19:46.880 --> 00:19:47.700
I got it, yeah.

517
00:19:47.700 --> 00:19:48.540
- Yeah.

518
00:19:48.540 --> 00:19:49.840
- So, I can understand it here.

519
00:19:49.840 --> 00:19:50.760
- Good.

520
00:19:50.760 --> 00:19:53.000
- That's definitely more body rotation there.

521
00:19:53.000 --> 00:20:00.060
- Nice.

522
00:20:00.060 --> 00:20:03.160
- So, give me one right arm only.

523
00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:06.440
I like to give, so once you've done, you know,

524
00:20:06.440 --> 00:20:08.680
five to 10, I like to give it a little break.

525
00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:10.760
So, go back and do right arm only.

526
00:20:10.760 --> 00:20:12.400
- So, right arm is here.

527
00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:14.120
- Good.

528
00:20:14.120 --> 00:20:15.000
- Here still.

529
00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:15.840
- Yep.

530
00:20:15.840 --> 00:20:16.680
- Okay.

531
00:20:21.680 --> 00:20:23.240
Good.

532
00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:24.760
The right arm's pretty good.

533
00:20:24.760 --> 00:20:26.360
We can use that.

534
00:20:26.360 --> 00:20:27.640
So, here's how I like to use that.

535
00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:30.120
So, go ahead and do a practice wing right arm only.

536
00:20:30.120 --> 00:20:32.560
And you're gonna stop right about here.

537
00:20:32.560 --> 00:20:33.640
Good.

538
00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:35.380
Okay, do that again.

539
00:20:35.380 --> 00:20:36.920
No lunge.

540
00:20:36.920 --> 00:20:38.160
Stop right about there.

541
00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:40.080
Good, put the left hand on.

542
00:20:40.080 --> 00:20:40.960
Put the left hand on.

543
00:20:40.960 --> 00:20:42.080
Take the right hand off.

544
00:20:42.080 --> 00:20:43.980
Feel that connection.

545
00:20:43.980 --> 00:20:45.000
Keep turning your body.

546
00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:48.880
- Thomas is good, man.

547
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:50.160
- Go ahead and get set up.

548
00:20:50.160 --> 00:20:51.000
- Yeah, this is good.

549
00:20:51.000 --> 00:20:52.720
I mean, just for this right here.

550
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:54.040
- Yeah.

551
00:20:54.040 --> 00:20:55.800
- Yeah, that was worth the six hour flight.

552
00:20:55.800 --> 00:20:56.920
- Perfect, man.

553
00:20:56.920 --> 00:20:59.600
It was longer than six 'cause they used that on the tarmac

554
00:20:59.600 --> 00:21:01.080
for about an hour, man.

555
00:21:01.080 --> 00:21:01.920
It's crazy.

556
00:21:01.920 --> 00:21:02.760
- You fly out of it.

557
00:21:02.760 --> 00:21:03.720
- Okay, hurry up, man.

558
00:21:03.720 --> 00:21:04.720
- Yeah, that was worth it.

559
00:21:04.720 --> 00:21:07.440
I was like, oh God, my neck is killing me.

560
00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:08.280
- Good.

561
00:21:08.280 --> 00:21:09.120
- All right, so right arm?

562
00:21:09.120 --> 00:21:09.960
- Right, yeah.

563
00:21:09.960 --> 00:21:11.080
No, no, left arm's good.

564
00:21:11.080 --> 00:21:13.160
We're just using the right arm to train the left.

565
00:21:13.160 --> 00:21:14.000
- Okay.

566
00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:18.720
- Better, better.

567
00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:19.680
We'll fix the direction,

568
00:21:19.680 --> 00:21:20.880
but that was better sequence.

569
00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:22.240
- Yeah, I'm not worried about the direction.

570
00:21:22.240 --> 00:21:24.160
- Okay, so the right,

571
00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:25.560
the direction is gonna be key

572
00:21:25.560 --> 00:21:29.320
because a lot of golfers flip it to fix that.

573
00:21:29.320 --> 00:21:30.160
- Okay.

574
00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:32.600
- We've gotta learn to use the motorcycle in twist

575
00:21:32.600 --> 00:21:36.000
to fix that, but that'll, we'll work through that.

576
00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:39.720
All right, so go ahead and put both hands on.

577
00:21:39.720 --> 00:21:42.520
So put both hands on and let them work together

578
00:21:42.520 --> 00:21:44.100
and just give me a good little nine to three.

579
00:21:44.100 --> 00:21:45.960
So just feel like you do the left arm only drill,

580
00:21:45.960 --> 00:21:48.400
but the right hand's on to help as well.

581
00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:49.440
Both hands together.

582
00:21:49.440 --> 00:21:53.320
Good.

583
00:21:53.320 --> 00:21:54.720
- A little longer, but.

584
00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:58.000
- Yeah, but little different ground contact, right?

585
00:21:58.000 --> 00:21:58.840
- Yes.

586
00:21:58.840 --> 00:22:00.900
- Let me record that.

587
00:22:00.900 --> 00:22:06.280
Good.

588
00:22:06.280 --> 00:22:09.040
So go ahead and do one just like that.

589
00:22:09.040 --> 00:22:11.240
Not any, you know, nice and easy.

590
00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:12.080
- Ready?

591
00:22:12.080 --> 00:22:12.920
- Yeah.

592
00:22:17.560 --> 00:22:18.960
- Okay, we'll fix that direction.

593
00:22:18.960 --> 00:22:19.920
How was that?

594
00:22:19.920 --> 00:22:22.980
So if you were to grade that on scale one to 10.

595
00:22:22.980 --> 00:22:24.820
- Give it about eight, Matt.

1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.500
Where is it was?

2
00:00:01.500 --> 00:00:03.800
Not in R&A, I'm so mad.

3
00:00:03.800 --> 00:00:08.760
Yeah, so let's just kind of game plan a little bit.

4
00:00:08.760 --> 00:00:11.120
So the goal is primarily the release, right?

5
00:00:11.120 --> 00:00:15.320
Like, when you say just ball striking, do you keep stats at all?

6
00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:16.560
Do you know where it breaks down?

7
00:00:16.560 --> 00:00:18.360
Do you know, like, is it more--

8
00:00:18.360 --> 00:00:21.520
So I haven't played a lot this year, but usually--

9
00:00:21.520 --> 00:00:24.000
like, I could beat people with my wedges.

10
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:24.500
OK.

11
00:00:24.500 --> 00:00:28.320
But really, my driver at longer clubs, you know,

12
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:29.560
a kid will kill me.

13
00:00:29.560 --> 00:00:32.640
Like I said, lost a distance and driver will kill me.

14
00:00:32.640 --> 00:00:36.600
I was hitting-- you know, my misses were pulls or hooks.

15
00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:37.240
Yeah.

16
00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:39.680
So I waked in my grip a little bit.

17
00:00:39.680 --> 00:00:43.200
So I was more over here, and I'm about right here now.

18
00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:44.880
OK.

19
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:52.080
And then I started hitting a little bit of pushes.

20
00:00:52.080 --> 00:00:54.600
So they weren't hooks, so I started a little bit of pushes.

21
00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:57.800
So lately, though, when I've been working on,

22
00:00:57.800 --> 00:01:01.520
I've been doing these, like, in between and practicing

23
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:04.000
that when I was going to play, it was--

24
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:05.720
I was starting to hit it better, though.

25
00:01:05.720 --> 00:01:05.920
OK.

26
00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:07.240
I was starting to strike it better.

27
00:01:07.240 --> 00:01:07.760
OK.

28
00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:10.720
But, yeah, so in a round, it's usually not short game.

29
00:01:10.720 --> 00:01:11.800
Short game is what I don't--

30
00:01:11.800 --> 00:01:13.240
Yeah, yeah.

31
00:01:13.240 --> 00:01:17.520
So if we broke it down, let's say, 160 to 100 yards,

32
00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:21.360
and then 160 to 220.

33
00:01:21.360 --> 00:01:24.600
160 to 2, or 160 and above.

34
00:01:24.600 --> 00:01:26.000
170 and above.

35
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:28.080
So 79, I'm going to hit, like, 165.

36
00:01:28.080 --> 00:01:28.440
OK.

37
00:01:28.440 --> 00:01:31.400
So above, usually above, 79.

38
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:32.120
27 is 6.

39
00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:35.000
I'm pretty decent with-- above that is--

40
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:36.080
Is where we get into trouble.

41
00:01:36.080 --> 00:01:36.080
OK.

42
00:01:36.080 --> 00:01:36.800
It's definitely a drop.

43
00:01:36.800 --> 00:01:41.760
Like, driver, I have a round where, like I said,

44
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:44.040
every time I hit those, the pull hooks.

45
00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:48.520
And then sometimes I find out that I get here,

46
00:01:48.520 --> 00:01:51.400
and I still get a little behind it, too, sometimes.

47
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:54.960
Like, in the middle of a round, that's where it'll just go haywire.

48
00:01:54.960 --> 00:01:55.480
OK.

49
00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:57.320
And then I'll go to something else.

50
00:01:57.320 --> 00:02:00.200
So I can beat people if I'm, like, 6,500.

51
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:04.600
If I go back to 68, 69, I'm going to have a day in catch.

52
00:02:04.600 --> 00:02:05.600
OK.

53
00:02:05.600 --> 00:02:09.600
Well, then let's go, let's go, like, 6 iron to start.

54
00:02:09.600 --> 00:02:10.440
OK.

55
00:02:10.440 --> 00:02:11.280
That helped.

56
00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:12.280
So--

57
00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:14.440
Do you have 6 iron different from all the others?

58
00:02:14.440 --> 00:02:15.920
So my 7 iron is different.

59
00:02:15.920 --> 00:02:16.400
OK.

60
00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:17.320
It's a replacement.

61
00:02:17.320 --> 00:02:17.760
Gotcha.

62
00:02:17.760 --> 00:02:18.760
This is different.

63
00:02:18.760 --> 00:02:19.760
This is different.

64
00:02:19.760 --> 00:02:20.600
[INAUDIBLE]

65
00:02:20.600 --> 00:02:27.920
It's right here.

66
00:02:27.920 --> 00:02:28.920
Yeah.

67
00:02:28.920 --> 00:02:30.920
OK.

68
00:02:30.920 --> 00:02:33.640
And am I doing another 3D, or just right with--

69
00:02:33.640 --> 00:02:35.600
OK.

70
00:02:35.600 --> 00:02:39.200
So let's just do regular for right now,

71
00:02:39.200 --> 00:02:40.640
and then I'll have you--

72
00:02:40.640 --> 00:02:41.600
we'll collect some data.

73
00:02:41.600 --> 00:02:43.360
So go ahead.

74
00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:44.920
Just do a regular stock shot.

75
00:02:44.920 --> 00:02:50.360

[MUSIC PLAYING]

77
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:16.040
All right.

78
00:03:16.040 --> 00:03:17.240
Let me see a 9 to 3.

79
00:03:17.240 --> 00:03:18.240
[INAUDIBLE]

80
00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:38.920
Dude, again, that's your 9 to 3?

81
00:03:38.920 --> 00:03:40.640
How far am I going to go back?

82
00:03:40.640 --> 00:03:44.880
Uh, like, 3/4.

83
00:03:44.880 --> 00:03:45.880
Ah, 3/4?

84
00:03:45.880 --> 00:03:46.880
Yeah.

85
00:03:46.880 --> 00:03:47.880
OK.

86
00:03:47.880 --> 00:03:59.880
So can you see on the screen ahead of you?

87
00:03:59.880 --> 00:04:00.880
Yeah.

88
00:04:00.880 --> 00:04:01.380
OK.

89
00:04:01.380 --> 00:04:02.380
I still have a 2/4.

90
00:04:02.380 --> 00:04:02.880
OK.

91
00:04:02.880 --> 00:04:03.880
That's your 9 to 3.

00:04:03.880 --> 00:04:14.920
[INAUDIBLE]

93
00:04:14.920 --> 00:04:21.440
All right, so now let me see your right arm only.

94
00:04:21.440 --> 00:04:22.480
But hold on one second.

95
00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:24.200
I want to get the first one of these for sure.

96
00:04:24.200 --> 00:04:26.000
So go ahead and do another 9 to 3, if you want.

97
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:28.000
OK.

98
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:29.000
Right.

99
00:04:32.440 --> 00:04:36.880
That's a little slow.

100
00:04:36.880 --> 00:04:46.800
[MUSIC PLAYING]

101
00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:47.800
OK.

102
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:48.800
So right arm only.

103
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:50.160
Dude, what do you know about a 3 or a right arm?

104
00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:51.000
Right arm only is good.

105
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:52.000
Let's go ahead.

00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:57.940

107
00:04:57.940 --> 00:04:59.440
OK.

108
00:04:59.440 --> 00:05:01.840
And now left arm only.

109
00:05:01.840 --> 00:05:02.840
Hold.

110
00:05:02.840 --> 00:05:03.840

Go ahead.

119
00:05:31.840 --> 00:05:32.840
Left arm.

120
00:05:32.840 --> 00:05:33.840
Left arm.

That's a 6 iron?

Yes.

Yeah.

Hit one more, aim it at the red and white pole

at the back of the range.

194
00:07:54.960 --> 00:07:59.220
- It's the red and white.

195
00:07:59.220 --> 00:08:00.720
- Yeah, we call it the candy cane.

196
00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:02.860
You see it's very back like 250 out.

197
00:08:02.860 --> 00:08:06.440
- Oh man, I can't see that sucker.

198
00:08:06.440 --> 00:08:09.100
- The left edge of the green, of the right green.

199
00:08:13.940 --> 00:08:15.460
- You see the red and white pole?

200
00:08:15.460 --> 00:08:16.300
- No way.

201
00:08:16.300 --> 00:08:17.140
- Oh, right there.

202
00:08:17.140 --> 00:08:18.060
Oh, that red and white pole.

203
00:08:18.060 --> 00:08:18.900
Sorry, in the back guys.

204
00:08:18.900 --> 00:08:19.720
- No worries.

205
00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:21.380
- Just aim in there.

206
00:08:21.380 --> 00:08:23.780
That's kind of like close to square to the building.

207
00:08:44.680 --> 00:08:48.000
What's going on with the shoulder?

208
00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:48.840
- Huh?

209
00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:50.320
- What's going on with the shoulder?

210
00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:52.740
- Yeah, I don't know if it's the flight.

211
00:08:52.740 --> 00:08:54.240
Play all of them.

212
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:57.820
- All right, grab like your seven iron.

213
00:08:57.820 --> 00:09:02.080
Well, let's get to work a little bit.

214
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:05.120
And how do you learn best?

215
00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:08.720
Do you like, you want to look at it on video

216
00:09:08.720 --> 00:09:09.560
and talk about it?

217
00:09:09.560 --> 00:09:11.320
Do you want to be put in positions?

218
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:14.080
Do you want like, are you more feel

219
00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:16.120
or are you more visual or are you more?

220
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:17.920
- I'm a video, I'm a techy.

221
00:09:17.920 --> 00:09:18.760
- Okay.

222
00:09:18.760 --> 00:09:22.320
- So, video, talk to me, you can put me in position

223
00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:27.320
to show me to play any videos working best.

224
00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:29.600
- Okay.

225
00:09:29.600 --> 00:09:34.000
- But you might have to do both because I watch,

226
00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:35.080
even though I watch the videos,

227
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:37.080
I know I'm missing something.

228
00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:43.560
- Well, visual can also be from your perspective.

229
00:09:43.560 --> 00:09:45.360
We got to make it look a certain way

230
00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:46.680
- Okay.

231
00:09:46.680 --> 00:09:48.200
- From your perspective.

232
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:54.840
- So, you'll be staying on it?

233
00:09:54.840 --> 00:09:57.440
- We're going to work on the release

234
00:09:57.440 --> 00:09:58.960
'cause that's what we said our first goal is

235
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:01.240
and then we'll see what's left after that.

236
00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:05.200
All right, so come on over here if you want to have.

237
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:06.040
- Okay.

238
00:10:06.040 --> 00:10:06.880
- Relax.

239
00:10:06.880 --> 00:10:07.720
- Okay, relax.

240
00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:08.560
- Cool.

241
00:10:10.440 --> 00:10:11.720
- Watch your upper body lunge.

242
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:12.560
- Okay, right, right.

243
00:10:12.560 --> 00:10:13.640
- So, do it again.

244
00:10:13.640 --> 00:10:14.800
- That was another thing I was doing

245
00:10:14.800 --> 00:10:17.040
until you came out with another video

246
00:10:17.040 --> 00:10:19.360
and we were talking about like, you know,

247
00:10:19.360 --> 00:10:20.440
sometimes.

248
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:21.280
- Relax that.

249
00:10:21.280 --> 00:10:22.120
Relax that.

250
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:24.720
- Good.

251
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:26.600
So, what does that feel like on the way through?

252
00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:28.640
Now, you're a little past the ball now.

253
00:10:28.640 --> 00:10:30.040
We've lost our setup a bit.

254
00:10:30.040 --> 00:10:33.120
Good.

255
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:33.920
What does that feel like?

256
00:10:33.920 --> 00:10:34.760
What's different there?

257
00:10:34.760 --> 00:10:37.200
- Uh, more extension.

258
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:38.040
- More extension?

259
00:10:38.040 --> 00:10:38.880
- Yeah.

260
00:10:38.880 --> 00:10:40.120
- That feels like more extension.

261
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:41.400
- Go ahead and try that move.

262
00:10:41.400 --> 00:10:44.000
- But before I guess I was going like this.

263
00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:44.840
- Mm-hmm.

264
00:10:44.840 --> 00:10:45.680
- That more out.

265
00:10:45.680 --> 00:10:46.520
- Okay.

266
00:10:46.520 --> 00:10:56.200
So, I want you to try and finish low,

267
00:10:56.200 --> 00:10:57.640
like with the club down.

268
00:10:57.640 --> 00:11:02.640
Basically, I want to try and finish with the club

269
00:11:02.640 --> 00:11:06.800
below my hands instead of up here.

270
00:11:06.800 --> 00:11:07.640
- All right.

271
00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:09.800
All right.

272
00:11:09.800 --> 00:11:13.240
Good.

273
00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:19.360
Pretty good.

274
00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:20.200
Okay.

275
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:22.120
So, put your left hand on there.

276
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:23.040
Good.

277
00:11:23.040 --> 00:11:24.320
So, what's different there,

278
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:25.520
compared to where you would normally be

279
00:11:25.520 --> 00:11:26.440
at this point in this one?

280
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:27.280
Okay.

281
00:11:27.280 --> 00:11:28.960
Good.

282
00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:30.600
So, now do right hand only.

283
00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:31.520
We'll practice one.

284
00:11:31.520 --> 00:11:33.920
Come on through.

285
00:11:33.920 --> 00:11:35.920
Put your left hand on.

286
00:11:35.920 --> 00:11:37.880
Okay.

287
00:11:37.880 --> 00:11:39.120
What's different there?

288
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:40.840
- I feel more extended.

289
00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:41.680
- Okay.

290
00:11:41.680 --> 00:11:42.520
- From everywhere in the spine.

291
00:11:42.520 --> 00:11:43.360
- Everywhere in the spine.

292
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:44.200
- Everywhere in the spine.

293
00:11:44.200 --> 00:11:45.040
- Yeah.

294
00:11:45.040 --> 00:11:47.320
- Okay, I did the spine before.

295
00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:48.160
- Two.

296
00:11:48.160 --> 00:11:49.000
- All right.

297
00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:51.800
- Let me see both hands.

298
00:11:51.800 --> 00:11:52.640
- Both hands.

299
00:11:52.640 --> 00:11:54.600
- Just try to feel that same extended position.

300
00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:55.440
- Sure.

301
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:56.280
- Yep.

302
00:11:56.280 --> 00:11:59.920
We're gonna try and stop kind of in that same zone.

303
00:11:59.920 --> 00:12:01.760
Good.

304
00:12:01.760 --> 00:12:02.600
That's not too bad.

305
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:08.080
That's the same thing.

306
00:12:08.080 --> 00:12:08.920
- Yep.

307
00:12:08.920 --> 00:12:17.720
- Okay.

308
00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:19.840
All right, let me see.

309
00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:21.360
- I feel definitely more stretch.

310
00:12:21.360 --> 00:12:22.840
- So, good.

311
00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:24.200
Let me see left hand only.

312
00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:33.560
That's still hit way too much with the arm.

313
00:12:33.560 --> 00:12:36.640
All right, let me see right hand only.

314
00:12:36.640 --> 00:12:38.200
A little practice swing.

315
00:12:38.200 --> 00:12:39.040
- Practice swing.

316
00:12:39.040 --> 00:12:39.880
- Yep.

317
00:12:39.880 --> 00:12:40.720
Come on down.

318
00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:41.560
Good.

319
00:12:41.560 --> 00:12:42.400
Put your left hand on.

320
00:12:42.400 --> 00:12:44.280
Take your right hand off.

321
00:12:44.280 --> 00:12:46.280
How much more body turn do you have there?

322
00:12:46.280 --> 00:12:48.080
And how much more connection do you have there

323
00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:49.760
than you would normally feel?

324
00:12:49.760 --> 00:12:50.600
- Yeah.

325
00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:53.800
- So, that left arm only is really a sequence drill.

326
00:12:53.800 --> 00:12:55.920
So, if I keep that connection there,

327
00:12:55.920 --> 00:12:59.320
then it's my body turn that kind of brings that arm through.

328
00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:01.600
Instead of me just trying to hit it with the,

329
00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:04.680
like a lateral raise, you know, hit it with the shoulder.

330
00:13:04.680 --> 00:13:06.840
- Yeah, 'cause that's what I'm thinking

331
00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:08.880
I need to do this and hit it.

332
00:13:08.880 --> 00:13:11.400
- Yeah, but the direction there is really key.

333
00:13:11.400 --> 00:13:14.480
So, if I'm doing the left arm only,

334
00:13:14.480 --> 00:13:16.160
it's like out in front of my chest,

335
00:13:16.160 --> 00:13:17.640
it's not over there.

336
00:13:17.640 --> 00:13:20.000
So, it's not like I'm trying to roll it that way.

337
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:21.640
I'm trying to roll it that way.

338
00:13:21.640 --> 00:13:22.480
- Okay.

339
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:26.440
- And so, that's where like what brings it through,

340
00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:30.140
watch out, is more of the body rotation.

341
00:13:30.140 --> 00:13:32.440
Can you see that?

342
00:13:32.440 --> 00:13:33.280
- Yeah.

343
00:13:33.280 --> 00:13:41.680
- Keep turning your body.

344
00:13:41.680 --> 00:13:42.520
Good.

345
00:13:42.520 --> 00:13:45.040
So, you feel that relationship,

346
00:13:45.040 --> 00:13:46.880
this is where we're trying to get to left arm only.

347
00:13:46.880 --> 00:13:49.480
Keep that relationship turned back with the body to impact,

348
00:13:49.480 --> 00:13:50.320
get back to there.

349
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:54.720
That's what it feels like on the way through.

350
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:55.560
- Good.

351
00:13:55.560 --> 00:13:57.160
- That's definitely a bigger stretch then.

352
00:13:57.160 --> 00:13:58.400
- Good, let me see that.

353
00:13:58.400 --> 00:14:00.720
- It's like long, right?

354
00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:01.560
- Yeah.

355
00:14:01.560 --> 00:14:06.120
- Not bad.

356
00:14:06.120 --> 00:14:08.680
Had a little hit from the wrist.

357
00:14:08.680 --> 00:14:11.680
We're just gonna keep it down there instead of letting it,

358
00:14:11.680 --> 00:14:13.080
you know, instead of kind of

359
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:15.000
looking at it, a little forehand topspin.

360
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:25.840
Very good.

361
00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:32.760
Okay, I'm gonna record one.

362
00:14:32.760 --> 00:14:33.600
Go ahead.

363
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:36.880
- Same way.

364
00:14:36.880 --> 00:14:37.720
- Yep.

365
00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:39.120
So, left arm only there.

366
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:40.520
Actually, hold on one second.

367
00:14:40.520 --> 00:14:43.600
Okay, go ahead.

368
00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:48.200
Good.

369
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:52.880
So, we'll work through that some more, but.

370
00:14:52.880 --> 00:14:55.360
So, from impact through that,

371
00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:56.600
to the follow through position,

372
00:14:56.600 --> 00:14:58.160
hit it more with the body turn

373
00:14:58.160 --> 00:15:02.240
unless with the arm pull.

374
00:15:02.240 --> 00:15:06.400
So, it'll feel, yep.

375
00:15:06.400 --> 00:15:08.920
So, athletically, I teach it kind of like this.

376
00:15:08.920 --> 00:15:10.560
Hold this in your left hand.

377
00:15:10.560 --> 00:15:11.400
- Left hand.

378
00:15:11.400 --> 00:15:12.240
- Yep.

379
00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:13.640
And then, I want you to imagine

380
00:15:13.640 --> 00:15:16.760
that you're just gonna throw the ball away

381
00:15:16.760 --> 00:15:18.000
from you kind of like this.

382
00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:24.040
And notice how the hand stays in front.

383
00:15:24.040 --> 00:15:26.800
Go ahead.

384
00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:29.040
Good.

385
00:15:29.040 --> 00:15:31.280
So, feel how that stays connected there.

386
00:15:31.280 --> 00:15:32.160
Do it one more time.

387
00:15:32.160 --> 00:15:38.160
Relax that.

388
00:15:38.160 --> 00:15:40.200
- So, still my shoulder wants to come up.

389
00:15:40.200 --> 00:15:42.560
- Yeah, you wanna do it with your deltoids

390
00:15:42.560 --> 00:15:44.000
and your shoulder and your,

391
00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:47.240
maybe even a little trap, good.

392
00:15:47.240 --> 00:15:49.680
Relax that.

393
00:15:49.680 --> 00:15:51.040
So, get back to that position.

394
00:15:51.040 --> 00:15:53.800
Soften your arm.

395
00:15:53.800 --> 00:15:56.640
Keep turning your body.

396
00:15:56.640 --> 00:15:57.880
Soften your arm.

397
00:15:57.880 --> 00:15:58.720
Good.

398
00:15:58.720 --> 00:15:59.760
Feel that there.

399
00:15:59.760 --> 00:16:03.040
So, the club's gonna have a little pull like this.

400
00:16:03.040 --> 00:16:04.520
Keep turning your body.

401
00:16:04.520 --> 00:16:05.600
Good.

402
00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:07.600
Feel that, how those kind of line up.

403
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:10.480
You're gonna feel that pull on the way through.

404
00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:12.920
Yep.

405
00:16:12.920 --> 00:16:13.760
That was better.

406
00:16:13.760 --> 00:16:16.960
Okay.

407
00:16:16.960 --> 00:16:19.760
- Wow, if I'm all at a place like that in a while.

408
00:16:19.760 --> 00:16:22.880
- Drive hole, baby.

409
00:16:22.880 --> 00:16:23.720
- I know.

410
00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:24.560
- Yeah.

411
00:16:24.560 --> 00:16:25.400
(laughing)

412
00:16:25.400 --> 00:16:27.240
- No, I always tell, yeah.

413
00:16:27.240 --> 00:16:29.760
Good golf is an ab and butt workout.

414
00:16:29.760 --> 00:16:30.760
- It is, man.

415
00:16:30.760 --> 00:16:33.720
- Better.

416
00:16:33.720 --> 00:16:35.720
Less hit from the arm.

417
00:16:35.720 --> 00:16:38.480
So, bring it back.

418
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:40.240
Actually, hold it out in front of you.

419
00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:42.440
Hinge it like this.

420
00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:43.280
Good.

421
00:16:43.280 --> 00:16:44.640
And now, just point it at the camera.

422
00:16:44.640 --> 00:16:45.480
Good.

423
00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:46.320
(dog barks)

424
00:16:46.320 --> 00:16:48.000
Now, turn your body.

425
00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:49.360
Keep turning your body.

426
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:52.360
That's where we're finishing.

427
00:16:52.360 --> 00:16:54.560
Okay.

428
00:16:54.560 --> 00:16:55.760
So, you bring it back.

429
00:16:55.760 --> 00:16:57.600
You just throw the club out in front of you.

430
00:16:57.600 --> 00:16:59.200
Keep turning your body.

431
00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:00.200
Keep turning your body.

432
00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:01.280
And when you turn your body,

433
00:17:01.280 --> 00:17:02.440
that's gonna bring the club through.

434
00:17:02.440 --> 00:17:03.280
- So, see.

435
00:17:03.280 --> 00:17:04.120
- So, like, yeah.

436
00:17:04.120 --> 00:17:05.760
- When is the throw is,

437
00:17:05.760 --> 00:17:08.000
should it be first?

438
00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:08.840
- Yep.

439
00:17:08.840 --> 00:17:10.160
- Or, I mean, or should I feel that

440
00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:12.720
because I'm moving my hands more?

441
00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:13.920
- Here, like, I'll show you the timing.

442
00:17:13.920 --> 00:17:15.440
So, stand right over there.

443
00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:19.200
So, basically, right in here,

444
00:17:19.200 --> 00:17:22.480
early on, is that throw move.

445
00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:25.080
So, now it's out in front of me like this.

446
00:17:25.080 --> 00:17:26.560
Or, it's getting there.

447
00:17:26.560 --> 00:17:28.640
So, that throw move is going that way.

448
00:17:28.640 --> 00:17:31.680
At the same time, my body is going that way.

449
00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:34.480
So, my wrist is throwing it like this,

450
00:17:34.480 --> 00:17:36.200
as my body is turning through.

451
00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:40.520
Instead of, you're kind of throwing the club

452
00:17:40.520 --> 00:17:44.480
more at the target, instead of out that way.

453
00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:48.360
So, what ends up happening is they work in pairs.

454
00:17:48.360 --> 00:17:51.640
If I throw this at the target,

455
00:17:51.640 --> 00:17:53.760
then my body stops in order to make my shoulder

456
00:17:53.760 --> 00:17:55.640
more powerful for going that way.

457
00:17:55.640 --> 00:17:57.320
So, my body is back here,

458
00:17:57.320 --> 00:17:59.800
and I'm throwing the club there with my arms.

459
00:17:59.800 --> 00:18:04.000
Instead, I want to throw my club there back,

460
00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:07.160
and I turn my body through forward.

461
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:10.720
So, the body goes forward, the hand keeps it back,

462
00:18:10.720 --> 00:18:13.560
versus my hand's taking it forward,

463
00:18:13.560 --> 00:18:15.000
and my body's staying back.

464
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:17.440
So, timing-wise, you can watch.

465
00:18:17.440 --> 00:18:19.520
I'll do it in kind of slow motion.

466
00:18:19.520 --> 00:18:21.320
There's kind of that throw,

467
00:18:21.320 --> 00:18:23.120
and then watch on the way through.

468
00:18:24.760 --> 00:18:27.320
Notice how, on the way through,

469
00:18:27.320 --> 00:18:29.640
it just kind of like stays out there.

470
00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:30.760
It wasn't like.

471
00:18:30.760 --> 00:18:33.160
- Right.

472
00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:35.360
- There wasn't really a hit from the arm,

473
00:18:35.360 --> 00:18:37.960
the hit is more from the body on the left arm only.

474
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:42.200
- Yeah, so I know I had to come on you into shit.

475
00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:43.600
- To get some of these details?

476
00:18:43.600 --> 00:18:44.440
- Yeah, you know what I mean,

477
00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:45.280
'cause that's what I mean.

478
00:18:45.280 --> 00:18:46.440
- So, when you go back and re-watch

479
00:18:46.440 --> 00:18:47.480
the left arm only video,

480
00:18:47.480 --> 00:18:48.640
you'll hear all this stuff,

481
00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:50.320
but until you experience it.

482
00:18:50.320 --> 00:18:52.800
- Boy, I forgot what you call this one.

483
00:18:52.800 --> 00:18:54.240
- On hinge or ulnar deviation?

484
00:18:54.240 --> 00:18:57.000
- Yeah, the ulnar deviation on the hinge.

485
00:18:57.000 --> 00:18:59.720
Like, I was thinking all the wrong stuff.

486
00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:01.560
Like, 'cause I would essentially get a fact,

487
00:19:01.560 --> 00:19:04.960
'cause I'm like, what the, I can't just go hand straight,

488
00:19:04.960 --> 00:19:06.800
because I'm down with these steepness

489
00:19:06.800 --> 00:19:08.240
just coming straight down to the ground.

490
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:10.560
- Right, but now you're kind of seeing it.

491
00:19:10.560 --> 00:19:11.400
- Right, right, right.

492
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:12.240
- Correct.

493
00:19:12.240 --> 00:19:13.080
- I understand.

494
00:19:13.080 --> 00:19:14.040
- That controls the width

495
00:19:14.040 --> 00:19:15.520
and helps create the flat spot.

496
00:19:15.520 --> 00:19:16.360
Good.

497
00:19:16.360 --> 00:19:18.600
Good.

498
00:19:18.600 --> 00:19:21.360
So, it's gonna, it's gonna un-hinge there,

499
00:19:21.360 --> 00:19:23.960
keep turning through, keep turning through,

500
00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:25.920
keep turning through, keep this connection.

501
00:19:25.920 --> 00:19:26.920
Good.

502
00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:27.760
That's it.

503
00:19:27.760 --> 00:19:30.400
- So, I need to focus more on this than this right side.

504
00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:32.120
- I mean, you could feel like the right side

505
00:19:32.120 --> 00:19:33.880
is turning it through,

506
00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:36.680
or you could feel like the left side is staying connected.

507
00:19:36.680 --> 00:19:37.520
It does.

508
00:19:37.520 --> 00:19:38.360
- Doesn't matter.

509
00:19:38.360 --> 00:19:39.280
- It does the same thing.

510
00:19:39.280 --> 00:19:41.120
Some guys like, either one.

511
00:19:41.120 --> 00:19:42.280
Good.

512
00:19:42.280 --> 00:19:43.560
And that's where, I can't tell you

513
00:19:43.560 --> 00:19:44.400
what it's gonna feel like,

514
00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:46.040
but I can give you references, right?

515
00:19:46.040 --> 00:19:46.880
- Right, no, no, no, that's the one.

516
00:19:46.880 --> 00:19:47.700
I got it, yeah.

517
00:19:47.700 --> 00:19:48.540
- Yeah.

518
00:19:48.540 --> 00:19:49.840
- So, I can understand it here.

519
00:19:49.840 --> 00:19:50.760
- Good.

520
00:19:50.760 --> 00:19:53.000
- That's definitely more body rotation there.

521
00:19:53.000 --> 00:20:00.060
- Nice.

522
00:20:00.060 --> 00:20:03.160
- So, give me one right arm only.

523
00:20:03.160 --> 00:20:06.440
I like to give, so once you've done, you know,

524
00:20:06.440 --> 00:20:08.680
five to 10, I like to give it a little break.

525
00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:10.760
So, go back and do right arm only.

526
00:20:10.760 --> 00:20:12.400
- So, right arm is here.

527
00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:14.120
- Good.

528
00:20:14.120 --> 00:20:15.000
- Here still.

529
00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:15.840
- Yep.

530
00:20:15.840 --> 00:20:16.680
- Okay.

531
00:20:21.680 --> 00:20:23.240
Good.

532
00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:24.760
The right arm's pretty good.

533
00:20:24.760 --> 00:20:26.360
We can use that.

534
00:20:26.360 --> 00:20:27.640
So, here's how I like to use that.

535
00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:30.120
So, go ahead and do a practice wing right arm only.

536
00:20:30.120 --> 00:20:32.560
And you're gonna stop right about here.

537
00:20:32.560 --> 00:20:33.640
Good.

538
00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:35.380
Okay, do that again.

539
00:20:35.380 --> 00:20:36.920
No lunge.

540
00:20:36.920 --> 00:20:38.160
Stop right about there.

541
00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:40.080
Good, put the left hand on.

542
00:20:40.080 --> 00:20:40.960
Put the left hand on.

543
00:20:40.960 --> 00:20:42.080
Take the right hand off.

544
00:20:42.080 --> 00:20:43.980
Feel that connection.

545
00:20:43.980 --> 00:20:45.000
Keep turning your body.

546
00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:48.880
- Thomas is good, man.

547
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:50.160
- Go ahead and get set up.

548
00:20:50.160 --> 00:20:51.000
- Yeah, this is good.

549
00:20:51.000 --> 00:20:52.720
I mean, just for this right here.

550
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:54.040
- Yeah.

551
00:20:54.040 --> 00:20:55.800
- Yeah, that was worth the six hour flight.

552
00:20:55.800 --> 00:20:56.920
- Perfect, man.

553
00:20:56.920 --> 00:20:59.600
It was longer than six 'cause they used that on the tarmac

554
00:20:59.600 --> 00:21:01.080
for about an hour, man.

555
00:21:01.080 --> 00:21:01.920
It's crazy.

556
00:21:01.920 --> 00:21:02.760
- You fly out of it.

557
00:21:02.760 --> 00:21:03.720
- Okay, hurry up, man.

558
00:21:03.720 --> 00:21:04.720
- Yeah, that was worth it.

559
00:21:04.720 --> 00:21:07.440
I was like, oh God, my neck is killing me.

560
00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:08.280
- Good.

561
00:21:08.280 --> 00:21:09.120
- All right, so right arm?

562
00:21:09.120 --> 00:21:09.960
- Right, yeah.

563
00:21:09.960 --> 00:21:11.080
No, no, left arm's good.

564
00:21:11.080 --> 00:21:13.160
We're just using the right arm to train the left.

565
00:21:13.160 --> 00:21:14.000
- Okay.

566
00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:18.720
- Better, better.

567
00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:19.680
We'll fix the direction,

568
00:21:19.680 --> 00:21:20.880
but that was better sequence.

569
00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:22.240
- Yeah, I'm not worried about the direction.

570
00:21:22.240 --> 00:21:24.160
- Okay, so the right,

571
00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:25.560
the direction is gonna be key

572
00:21:25.560 --> 00:21:29.320
because a lot of golfers flip it to fix that.

573
00:21:29.320 --> 00:21:30.160
- Okay.

574
00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:32.600
- We've gotta learn to use the motorcycle in twist

575
00:21:32.600 --> 00:21:36.000
to fix that, but that'll, we'll work through that.

576
00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:39.720
All right, so go ahead and put both hands on.

577
00:21:39.720 --> 00:21:42.520
So put both hands on and let them work together

578
00:21:42.520 --> 00:21:44.100
and just give me a good little nine to three.

579
00:21:44.100 --> 00:21:45.960
So just feel like you do the left arm only drill,

580
00:21:45.960 --> 00:21:48.400
but the right hand's on to help as well.

581
00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:49.440
Both hands together.

582
00:21:49.440 --> 00:21:53.320
Good.

583
00:21:53.320 --> 00:21:54.720
- A little longer, but.

584
00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:58.000
- Yeah, but little different ground contact, right?

585
00:21:58.000 --> 00:21:58.840
- Yes.

586
00:21:58.840 --> 00:22:00.900
- Let me record that.

587
00:22:00.900 --> 00:22:06.280
Good.

588
00:22:06.280 --> 00:22:09.040
So go ahead and do one just like that.

589
00:22:09.040 --> 00:22:11.240
Not any, you know, nice and easy.

590
00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:12.080
- Ready?

591
00:22:12.080 --> 00:22:12.920
- Yeah.

592
00:22:17.560 --> 00:22:18.960
- Okay, we'll fix that direction.

593
00:22:18.960 --> 00:22:19.920
How was that?

594
00:22:19.920 --> 00:22:22.980
So if you were to grade that on scale one to 10.

595
00:22:22.980 --> 00:22:24.820
- Give it about eight, Matt.
