00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:26.160
Alright guys, welcome to the part two edition of the stream on the big

2
00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:27.600
movements. If you

3
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:31.360
have any questions please post them in the chat window and I'll get to as many

4
00:00:31.360 --> 00:00:31.600
as I

5
00:00:31.600 --> 00:00:37.200
can. But as you can see I still had a bunch of email questions that I didn't

6
00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:38.040
have a chance

7
00:00:38.040 --> 00:00:43.740
in to get to. So let me know if there's any audio problems. I got the mic going

8
00:00:43.740 --> 00:00:44.160
so hopefully

9
00:00:44.160 --> 00:00:50.510
we're pretty good. I didn't mean to time it perfectly but hopefully some of you

10
00:00:50.510 --> 00:00:51.000
're jumping

11
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:57.170
over from the Duke Kansas game and hopefully we can have an exciting little

12
00:00:57.170 --> 00:00:57.920
half time show

13
00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:04.870
here. Without further ado, okay Robbie sent a question in about the arm

14
00:01:04.870 --> 00:01:06.760
extension in the

15
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:12.460
follow through. Is it better to train it as part of how you're generating speed

16
00:01:12.460 --> 00:01:12.920
or is

17
00:01:12.920 --> 00:01:19.780
it better to train it as part of how you're controlling path? His comment was

18
00:01:19.780 --> 00:01:20.360
the typically

19
00:01:20.360 --> 00:01:27.540
finds it works better training it with speed. Well, I'm not too big on absol

20
00:01:27.540 --> 00:01:29.160
utes because

21
00:01:29.160 --> 00:01:32.960
it could be related to how the golfer is controlling the path or it could be

22
00:01:32.960 --> 00:01:34.640
how they're controlling

23
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:41.410
the speed. One thing one little kind of insight that I'll give is if it is more

24
00:01:41.410 --> 00:01:42.240
of a power

25
00:01:42.240 --> 00:01:48.840
related issue then training positions is usually not as effective as training

26
00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:49.800
movements. And

27
00:01:49.800 --> 00:01:55.760
so when you're talking about arm extension that can be more related to how they

28
00:01:55.760 --> 00:01:56.880
're powering

29
00:01:56.880 --> 00:02:01.110
the swing because what will happen is a lot of golfers down at the bottom will

30
00:02:01.110 --> 00:02:01.540
feel a

31
00:02:01.540 --> 00:02:06.690
sense of power by bracing and flipping the wrist creating a lot of kind of

32
00:02:06.690 --> 00:02:07.560
tension in

33
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:13.470
the forearms right around impact versus having that continued motorcycle where

34
00:02:13.470 --> 00:02:14.240
the hands

35
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:22.320
are still slightly ahead of the clubhead and the body is just continuing on the

36
00:02:22.320 --> 00:02:25.960
way through.

37
00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:34.480
So I tend to agree with Robbie's question that I think it's more of a creating

38
00:02:34.480 --> 00:02:35.240
speed

39
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:41.850
element that a lot of golfers just feel stronger when they have more forearm

40
00:02:41.850 --> 00:02:43.400
tension and then

41
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:46.980
when they have that forearms tension the body is going to stall right around

42
00:02:46.980 --> 00:02:47.640
impact. So

43
00:02:47.640 --> 00:02:54.740
training like my hit your arms drill or hit my arms tends to create more of a

44
00:02:54.740 --> 00:02:55.640
feeling

45
00:02:55.640 --> 00:03:02.410
of power with a different part of your body and that tends to help really well

46
00:03:02.410 --> 00:03:03.280
with the

47
00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:10.320
getting the better flat spot or arm extension. His second question was is pron

48
00:03:10.320 --> 00:03:11.280
ation of the

49
00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:16.150
trail foot so he was only last time about the trail foot and I talked about how

50
00:03:16.150 --> 00:03:16.800
ideally

51
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:20.750
the sequence is the trail foot will tend to bank and then it will extend and

52
00:03:20.750 --> 00:03:21.440
then after

53
00:03:21.440 --> 00:03:27.730
impact it will rotate mostly because of the rotation of the pivot. His question

54
00:03:27.730 --> 00:03:28.000
was is

55
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:36.540
that pronation of the trail foot independent or is it a reaction of other

56
00:03:36.540 --> 00:03:38.440
movements? Nothing

57
00:03:38.440 --> 00:03:44.430
is truly independent but if you think about it from a more global picture right

58
00:03:44.430 --> 00:03:45.160
if we think

59
00:03:45.160 --> 00:03:50.110
about it as I'm trying to push through the ground and I'm trying to kind of

60
00:03:50.110 --> 00:03:51.080
spiral that

61
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:56.160
leg in a movement kind of like this so I'm letting my arm kind of almost mirror

62
00:03:56.160 --> 00:03:56.680
the way

63
00:03:56.680 --> 00:04:02.850
my foot is pushing against the ground. Well in order to use the big muscles of

64
00:04:02.850 --> 00:04:03.640
my hip my

65
00:04:03.640 --> 00:04:08.440
foot has to create an anchor my foot has to create kind of a connection point

66
00:04:08.440 --> 00:04:09.440
and so

67
00:04:09.440 --> 00:04:16.470
when I start banking that foot it's kind of part of pushing against the inside

68
00:04:16.470 --> 00:04:16.840
of the

69
00:04:16.840 --> 00:04:24.020
foot to allow for that hip to really create some some force because it'll be

70
00:04:24.020 --> 00:04:25.080
have a stronger

71
00:04:25.080 --> 00:04:31.050
fix point and be in a better position or relationship so it's not truly

72
00:04:31.050 --> 00:04:33.920
independent just as in like

73
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:37.960
just by rolling the foot isn't going to make your sequence any get any better

74
00:04:37.960 --> 00:04:38.400
but if you're

75
00:04:38.400 --> 00:04:42.270
using the foot and the hip together the foot will bank slightly before the hip

76
00:04:42.270 --> 00:04:42.720
will go

77
00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:50.470
into extension and external rotation. Where should you look related that

78
00:04:50.470 --> 00:04:51.600
question? Where

79
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:56.880
should you look if students struggle first with that first trail foot movement

80
00:04:56.880 --> 00:04:57.080
so if

81
00:04:57.080 --> 00:05:01.480
they struggle with more of that pronation the foot where should you look. First

82
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:01.800
thing

83
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:07.040
you want to do is just kind of Robbie's coach so I give him kind of the coach's

84
00:05:07.040 --> 00:05:08.200
perspective.

85
00:05:08.200 --> 00:05:11.730
First thing you want to do is just a basic kind of form flat and arches test if

86
00:05:11.730 --> 00:05:12.200
you're

87
00:05:12.200 --> 00:05:17.820
good with the feet you can take off the shoes and you can look at the mobility

88
00:05:17.820 --> 00:05:18.920
if the foot

89
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:22.850
has a hard time banking inside on its own you're going to have a hard time

90
00:05:22.850 --> 00:05:23.400
doing it

91
00:05:23.400 --> 00:05:27.400
with speed in the golf swing. So first thing is just clearing that physical

92
00:05:27.400 --> 00:05:28.600
capability.

93
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:32.940
The second piece would then be if they have a good enough release where they

94
00:05:32.940 --> 00:05:33.760
could handle

95
00:05:33.760 --> 00:05:38.310
having side bend and continue rotating because what'll happen is a lot of golf

96
00:05:38.310 --> 00:05:39.120
ers you start

97
00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:43.710
banking that foot and they start either catching it thin or fat or more on the

98
00:05:43.710 --> 00:05:44.560
toe because

99
00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:49.690
they haven't trained a good enough white position. So work on make sure they

100
00:05:49.690 --> 00:05:50.680
have a release that

101
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:55.980
can support a good foot action and then screen the foot make sure that the foot

102
00:05:55.980 --> 00:05:56.520
is working

103
00:05:56.520 --> 00:06:01.770
properly that usually gets that first movement. Okay Bazz had a question about

104
00:06:01.770 --> 00:06:03.400
the power package.

105
00:06:03.400 --> 00:06:09.180
I don't have the power package training aid but it looks very much like a swing

106
00:06:09.180 --> 00:06:09.840
guy except

107
00:06:09.840 --> 00:06:14.930
it has a second handle coming off of it kind of like this. So the thing I do

108
00:06:14.930 --> 00:06:15.760
like it better

109
00:06:15.760 --> 00:06:21.140
than the swing guy. I've mentioned for the problem with the swing guy is it

110
00:06:21.140 --> 00:06:22.480
really emphasizes

111
00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:26.800
the radial deviation and it emphasizes rehinging on the second side or on the

112
00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:27.800
follow through

113
00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:33.590
side. It can help for not bending the arms because typically when you bend the

114
00:06:33.590 --> 00:06:34.120
arm in

115
00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:39.650
the follow through it would be hard to also get the swing guy up against the

116
00:06:39.650 --> 00:06:40.880
forearm. But

117
00:06:40.880 --> 00:06:45.320
typically what I see is golfers who practice a lot with that end up getting

118
00:06:45.320 --> 00:06:46.160
more of kind

119
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:50.850
of an arm dominant pull in transition. So not a huge fan but the power package

120
00:06:50.850 --> 00:06:51.640
emphasizes

121
00:06:51.640 --> 00:06:57.140
a little bit more of the trail risk getting that extension. So I like it a

122
00:06:57.140 --> 00:06:57.680
little bit

123
00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:04.920
better but it does. I don't think it teaches the right arm rotation quite as

124
00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:05.920
well as it

125
00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:10.750
needs to. So it's more of kind of a transition and setting in top of the swing

126
00:07:10.750 --> 00:07:11.600
trainer for

127
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:17.040
me than really a dynamic downswing trainer. But it's better than the swing guy.

128
00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:17.320
So if

129
00:07:17.320 --> 00:07:22.070
you're looking to improve your extension of the wrist it's not a bad training

130
00:07:22.070 --> 00:07:22.480
aid for

131
00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:30.130
working at home. Okay. Guy or Guy, I'm not sure what part of the world he's in,

132
00:07:30.130 --> 00:07:30.920
he asked

133
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:37.890
about the lead knee motion. So the lead knee motion in transition basically

134
00:07:37.890 --> 00:07:40.280
internal external

135
00:07:40.280 --> 00:07:44.390
trying to get looking at where the knee is happening. So I'm going to lower the

136
00:07:44.390 --> 00:07:44.880
camera

137
00:07:44.880 --> 00:07:52.440
so we can kind of see what's going on here. So here's one of the tricky things.

138
00:07:52.440 --> 00:07:52.440
What

139
00:07:52.440 --> 00:07:58.340
the question relates to is in the transition of basically okay if the knee

140
00:07:58.340 --> 00:07:59.480
stays in like

141
00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:05.100
this and I shift that's commonly referred to as internal rotation of the hip.

142
00:08:05.100 --> 00:08:06.240
And then

143
00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:10.640
if I get to the top of the swing and as I'm shifting that knee goes out that's

144
00:08:10.640 --> 00:08:11.400
typically

145
00:08:11.400 --> 00:08:15.230
referred to as external rotation of the hip or sometimes it's referred to as

146
00:08:15.230 --> 00:08:15.800
external

147
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:21.200
rotation in the knee. By the book like the true knee rotation would actually

148
00:08:21.200 --> 00:08:21.800
happen more

149
00:08:21.800 --> 00:08:26.440
at the ankle like this. So when I turn that foot in that's the tibia rotating

150
00:08:26.440 --> 00:08:27.080
in and when

151
00:08:27.080 --> 00:08:30.790
I turn the foot out that's the tibia rotating out. So that's the true internal

152
00:08:30.790 --> 00:08:31.640
external rotation

153
00:08:31.640 --> 00:08:37.630
of the foot. So if I did external rotate or sorry of the knee if I did external

154
00:08:37.630 --> 00:08:38.480
rotation

155
00:08:38.480 --> 00:08:43.310
of the knee that's the same thing as the knee pointing in. So actually going

156
00:08:43.310 --> 00:08:44.360
that way would

157
00:08:44.360 --> 00:08:48.520
have more external rotation of the knee where if I go more out like this that

158
00:08:48.520 --> 00:08:49.520
would actually

159
00:08:49.520 --> 00:08:56.410
be more internal rotation of the knee. So the hard thing is the description

160
00:08:56.410 --> 00:08:57.320
that is most

161
00:08:57.320 --> 00:09:03.490
common doesn't really match the anatomical relationship. So the real question

162
00:09:03.490 --> 00:09:04.000
is do I

163
00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:11.460
want to have that knee stay put as I shift or should it work towards the target

164
00:09:11.460 --> 00:09:12.200
. I'll

165
00:09:12.200 --> 00:09:17.610
still be going into internal rotation. It's not a big difference as far as what

166
00:09:17.610 --> 00:09:18.600
's happening

167
00:09:18.600 --> 00:09:23.560
here at the hip as in. If I go this way I'm going into internal rotation if I

168
00:09:23.560 --> 00:09:24.120
go that

169
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:29.020
way it's going into internal rotation. The big difference is typically what's

170
00:09:29.020 --> 00:09:29.600
happening

171
00:09:29.600 --> 00:09:34.450
with the trail leg and what's happening with the upper body. Ideally yes it's

172
00:09:34.450 --> 00:09:35.080
going to

173
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:39.080
have a little bit more of a look of following. You don't want to have that look

174
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:39.720
of the knee

175
00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:45.230
coming in. That's typically from a little bit too much upper body lunge or from

176
00:09:45.230 --> 00:09:45.680
going

177
00:09:45.680 --> 00:09:53.000
into that foot mechanic of spinning the heel as opposed to banking that foot.

178
00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:55.000
So I think

179
00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:59.930
the look he's going for and describing is correct but the word of internal

180
00:09:59.930 --> 00:10:00.680
external

181
00:10:00.680 --> 00:10:09.630
rotation unfortunately isn't quite accurate. Okay and then his last, his follow

182
00:10:09.630 --> 00:10:09.960
up question

183
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:16.260
was kind of what does that play in rotation. As I demonstrated it's more of a

184
00:10:16.260 --> 00:10:19.320
sign of where

185
00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:24.220
the rotation is coming from. Here's how I look at it. So you want to take the

186
00:10:24.220 --> 00:10:24.720
big picture

187
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:29.610
of what's the general movement and the general movement in the can be broken

188
00:10:29.610 --> 00:10:31.040
down into torsion.

189
00:10:31.040 --> 00:10:36.320
So in the there's two different types of torsion. I would have positive torsion

190
00:10:36.320 --> 00:10:36.840
which

191
00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:42.240
is when let's say it's to the left it would be flexing forward in rotating or

192
00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:43.080
negative

193
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:50.430
torsion. So I would be extending and rotating. Those are a combination of

194
00:10:50.430 --> 00:10:52.480
movements but blend

195
00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:58.020
into one. So it's called torsion. In the backswing we tend to have negative t

196
00:10:58.020 --> 00:10:59.080
orsion and then

197
00:10:59.080 --> 00:11:02.130
in the downswing we're going to have positive torsion and then during the

198
00:11:02.130 --> 00:11:02.800
release we're

199
00:11:02.800 --> 00:11:07.760
going back into negative torsion and when you look at it more from that

200
00:11:07.760 --> 00:11:09.040
perspective of

201
00:11:09.040 --> 00:11:13.900
the global picture of what's happening at the spine then what's happening at

202
00:11:13.900 --> 00:11:15.080
the legs

203
00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:20.890
should match what you're trying to do with the spine. So it's not just that if

204
00:11:20.890 --> 00:11:21.360
you get

205
00:11:21.360 --> 00:11:26.570
the proper knee action it will work perfectly. The key is making sure that the

206
00:11:26.570 --> 00:11:27.200
foot, the

207
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:34.530
knee, the hip are all related to what the spine is doing. Alright I want to get

208
00:11:34.530 --> 00:11:34.680
through

209
00:11:34.680 --> 00:11:42.760
as many of these as I can. Bob asked a tricky question. He asked what muscle

210
00:11:42.760 --> 00:11:44.400
groups initiate

211
00:11:44.400 --> 00:11:49.610
the key movement. So what muscle groups initiate arm shallowing, the Jackson 5

212
00:11:49.610 --> 00:11:50.920
and the motorcycle.

213
00:11:50.920 --> 00:11:59.010
So here's where unfortunately my brain would go. Yes Mike, thanks for tuning in

214
00:11:59.010 --> 00:12:00.720
from Sweden.

215
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:05.350
There's your shout out. I appreciate you. Okay back to Bob's question. What

216
00:12:05.350 --> 00:12:05.800
initiates

217
00:12:05.800 --> 00:12:12.390
the arm shallowing? What initiates the Jackson 5? The trick is going to be what

218
00:12:12.390 --> 00:12:13.960
are we feeling

219
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:20.530
what is actually triggering it? And where does the motion take place? So like

220
00:12:20.530 --> 00:12:21.280
let's take

221
00:12:21.280 --> 00:12:26.810
for example if I were doing a bicep curl, right? So if I was doing a bicep curl

222
00:12:26.810 --> 00:12:27.320
and you

223
00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:33.490
had sensors or if you had EMG measuring parts in my body the first thing you

224
00:12:33.490 --> 00:12:34.760
would see would

225
00:12:34.760 --> 00:12:39.130
be an impulse in my foot. Actually you would see my core and then you would see

226
00:12:39.130 --> 00:12:39.680
my foot

227
00:12:39.680 --> 00:12:43.030
and then you would see all the support up until the bicep. Then I would have a

228
00:12:43.030 --> 00:12:43.760
high activity

229
00:12:43.760 --> 00:12:49.170
of the bicep. So you'd say that this motion was a bicep activity but it started

230
00:12:49.170 --> 00:12:49.600
all the

231
00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:53.870
way down at the feet or in the core depending on how you're looking at it. So

232
00:12:53.870 --> 00:12:54.920
when we get

233
00:12:54.920 --> 00:12:59.540
to the big movements like the arm shallowing the Jackson 5 and the motorcycle

234
00:12:59.540 --> 00:13:00.520
what initiates

235
00:13:00.520 --> 00:13:04.270
the movement may not be where you're ultimately going to feel it. I know that's

236
00:13:04.270 --> 00:13:05.040
a little bit

237
00:13:05.040 --> 00:13:12.870
pretty. So for example the arm shallow is really initiated more by the foot and

238
00:13:12.870 --> 00:13:14.720
the core and

239
00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:20.780
the rib cage rotation and having a little bit of reduced grip pressure

240
00:13:20.780 --> 00:13:22.080
especially in

241
00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:28.980
the trail forearm. So many amateurs tend to really squeeze and pull down with

242
00:13:28.980 --> 00:13:30.040
the forearm

243
00:13:30.040 --> 00:13:35.480
as opposed to letting that forearm be soft and letting the speed come more from

244
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:36.060
my body

245
00:13:36.060 --> 00:13:40.940
pulling on it and that body pull is initiating more at the feet because you

246
00:13:40.940 --> 00:13:42.160
need a fixed point

247
00:13:42.160 --> 00:13:48.570
in order to create force in a forcible way. So the arm shallow is initiated

248
00:13:48.570 --> 00:13:49.280
from the lower

249
00:13:49.280 --> 00:13:56.470
body or the core but you can feel it if you're actively doing it either in the

250
00:13:56.470 --> 00:13:57.840
lead forearm

251
00:13:57.840 --> 00:14:02.320
or in the trail shoulder you may even feel it more as a flexion kind of

252
00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:03.280
combination

253
00:14:03.280 --> 00:14:13.170
of the motorcycle movement. But that's again where you feel it and where the

254
00:14:13.170 --> 00:14:14.600
movement is

255
00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:19.080
actually originating might not be the same thing. So that's the arm shallow.

256
00:14:19.080 --> 00:14:20.160
The motorcycle

257
00:14:20.160 --> 00:14:29.080
his question was if when or sorry so with the motorcycle his question was is it

258
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:29.600
more of

259
00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:34.290
an arm pull or core rotation on the way through. So basically here we'll switch

260
00:14:34.290 --> 00:14:34.880
legs so that

261
00:14:34.880 --> 00:14:40.650
I can rotate that way easier. So if I'm going on the way through the question

262
00:14:40.650 --> 00:14:41.840
was basically

263
00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:47.670
is it an arm pull in order to keep that rotation of the wrist or is it more a

264
00:14:47.670 --> 00:14:48.840
body pull and

265
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:55.820
the arm just kind of rotates but follows the body pull. You know guys who

266
00:14:55.820 --> 00:14:56.480
showed with you

267
00:14:56.480 --> 00:15:02.760
can do either so whether it's more of like a Phil Mickelson upper body dominant

268
00:15:02.760 --> 00:15:03.320
style

269
00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:08.280
where the arms are pulling it into position or more of like a Ben Hogan style

270
00:15:08.280 --> 00:15:08.960
where the

271
00:15:08.960 --> 00:15:13.530
body is pulling through. You can do either but the more repeatable pattern is

272
00:15:13.530 --> 00:15:14.040
the body

273
00:15:14.040 --> 00:15:19.980
pulls through and the arm just kind of stays a little bit softer in order to

274
00:15:19.980 --> 00:15:20.860
control the

275
00:15:20.860 --> 00:15:27.960
movement as opposed to really driving a powerful arm activity.

276
00:15:27.960 --> 00:15:32.250
Then the last one was about the Jackson 5. So I already talked to it's a little

277
00:15:32.250 --> 00:15:32.800
bit more

278
00:15:32.800 --> 00:15:44.300
going from the feet rather than from the hips. The key is that the foot and the

279
00:15:44.300 --> 00:15:45.680
hip and the

280
00:15:45.680 --> 00:15:51.940
spine kind of all work together in that side tilt Jackson 5 pattern. So I'm a

281
00:15:51.940 --> 00:15:53.080
big fan of

282
00:15:53.080 --> 00:15:58.840
using the feet properly to help get the hips and core working properly as well

283
00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:00.480
as long as

284
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:04.800
the arms in the club are in a position where you can take advantage of it.

285
00:16:04.800 --> 00:16:08.530
So we'll take a quick break from the emails and we'll answer some of the

286
00:16:08.530 --> 00:16:09.640
questions because

287
00:16:09.640 --> 00:16:17.240
I see them starting to really pour in. Okay so first question was from William

288
00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:18.360
how to prevent

289
00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:23.980
early extension when performing the Jackson 5. The key thing there is when you

290
00:16:23.980 --> 00:16:24.880
are doing

291
00:16:24.880 --> 00:16:32.390
the Jackson 5 to make sure that it's going in the slightly left of the target

292
00:16:32.390 --> 00:16:33.120
not in

293
00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:37.080
the direction of the hips. So when I teach the Jackson 5 it's a lateral

294
00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:37.560
movement like

295
00:16:37.560 --> 00:16:41.040
this but then when I go to the top of the swing a lot of golfers still go

296
00:16:41.040 --> 00:16:41.840
lateral with

297
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:47.770
the direction of the pelvis and they start going that way. So what you have to

298
00:16:47.770 --> 00:16:48.440
feel is

299
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:53.310
that it's actually going a little bit more backwards. So if I was doing let's

300
00:16:53.310 --> 00:16:53.880
say a better

301
00:16:53.880 --> 00:16:59.650
version or a more swing and a related version of the Jackson 5 it would

302
00:16:59.650 --> 00:17:01.160
actually be more

303
00:17:01.160 --> 00:17:07.030
like I was going like this where the hips were going back 45 instead of purely

304
00:17:07.030 --> 00:17:07.560
at the

305
00:17:07.560 --> 00:17:13.650
target. That helps my body flex forward which is part of that positive torsion

306
00:17:13.650 --> 00:17:14.680
pattern.

307
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:18.740
So that's the other piece is making sure that you're using your abs with that

308
00:17:18.740 --> 00:17:20.160
Jackson 5

309
00:17:20.160 --> 00:17:25.660
and not just using too much of your back in order to move your hips. You had a

310
00:17:25.660 --> 00:17:25.880
second

311
00:17:25.880 --> 00:17:30.380
question he got here first so he gets two questions answered. Ideally when does

312
00:17:30.380 --> 00:17:31.440
the club

313
00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:36.000
catch up with the hands after impact both for driver and six iron. For driver I

314
00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:36.200
use

315
00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:42.450
the reference of about chef parallel is where you know the guys like Jordan

316
00:17:42.450 --> 00:17:43.560
speed or Joe

317
00:17:43.560 --> 00:17:50.400
Durant or Jim Furyk or Henrik Stenson like guys who tend to be have really good

318
00:17:50.400 --> 00:17:51.000
ball

319
00:17:51.000 --> 00:17:57.560
striking statistics. The club will catch up with them a little bit later here.

320
00:17:57.560 --> 00:17:57.720
With an

321
00:17:57.720 --> 00:18:04.300
iron it's probably closer to about chef 45. Alright Craig working on the

322
00:18:04.300 --> 00:18:05.240
motorcycle move

323
00:18:05.240 --> 00:18:09.470
but still can't get my hands forward enough. Do I need more motorcycle or could

324
00:18:09.470 --> 00:18:10.200
it be something

325
00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:18.760
else. Definitely could be something else. Motorcycle movement is solves two

326
00:18:18.760 --> 00:18:20.000
problems motorcycle

327
00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:25.890
movement let's get a little bit better in frame. So motorcycle movement solves

328
00:18:25.890 --> 00:18:26.560
the slice

329
00:18:26.560 --> 00:18:33.490
and it solves shaft lean because when I flex that lead wrist or twist the club

330
00:18:33.490 --> 00:18:34.600
if I didn't

331
00:18:34.600 --> 00:18:37.710
get my hands ahead the club face will be pointed really close so I'm going to

332
00:18:37.710 --> 00:18:38.320
hit massive

333
00:18:38.320 --> 00:18:43.040
pulls so it's a key component to getting the hands ahead and it squares the

334
00:18:43.040 --> 00:18:43.960
face to the

335
00:18:43.960 --> 00:18:51.720
path relationship which prevents the slice. That being said if your arm timing

336
00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:55.160
is if your

337
00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:59.970
arm timing is more going into kind of this under flip pattern where that right

338
00:18:59.970 --> 00:19:00.600
arm stays

339
00:19:00.600 --> 00:19:04.810
behind your body and the palm stays facing kind of more towards you instead of

340
00:19:04.810 --> 00:19:05.280
facing

341
00:19:05.280 --> 00:19:11.200
more away that will move the bottom the swing backward. It's very hard to do

342
00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:12.160
that and keep

343
00:19:12.160 --> 00:19:16.700
the motorcycle but it is possible because I could very easily keep that left

344
00:19:16.700 --> 00:19:17.880
wrist flat

345
00:19:17.880 --> 00:19:23.230
and release the right arm a little bit earlier so you'll start to see the club

346
00:19:23.230 --> 00:19:24.000
coming up

347
00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:30.520
through impact. So I do a lot of trail arm training got a couple new drills

348
00:19:30.520 --> 00:19:31.320
that I'll

349
00:19:31.320 --> 00:19:34.730
be filming tomorrow that have been working pretty well but things like the

350
00:19:34.730 --> 00:19:35.280
single arm

351
00:19:35.280 --> 00:19:40.810
drills throws the disc catcher all seem to help train that right arm getting

352
00:19:40.810 --> 00:19:41.440
more in

353
00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:48.040
front which helps support the motorcycle of the lead wrist. Okay Nick asked

354
00:19:48.040 --> 00:19:48.280
what would

355
00:19:48.280 --> 00:19:52.270
you suggest for across the line and slightly open at the top the current

356
00:19:52.270 --> 00:19:53.400
transition pulls

357
00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:58.770
down the club opens the face a bit more fixed backswing or transition. I would

358
00:19:58.770 --> 00:20:00.800
tend to try

359
00:20:00.800 --> 00:20:06.240
both and see which works for you. What typically happens is some golfers their

360
00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:07.200
brain interprets

361
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:13.260
transition later than it actually is on video. What I mean by that is I'll back

362
00:20:13.260 --> 00:20:13.880
up enough

363
00:20:13.880 --> 00:20:20.020
so that we've got plenty of room here. So what many golfers do is when they

364
00:20:20.020 --> 00:20:20.800
start doing

365
00:20:20.800 --> 00:20:26.670
a transition move it actually happens right around here. So what that means is

366
00:20:26.670 --> 00:20:27.040
all of

367
00:20:27.040 --> 00:20:31.210
this is kind of like a blind spot like their brain isn't really aware of what's

368
00:20:31.210 --> 00:20:31.600
going

369
00:20:31.600 --> 00:20:37.720
on at that point. So what I frequently have to do is train more trying to

370
00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:38.520
motorcycle

371
00:20:38.520 --> 00:20:44.020
to end the top of the backswing instead of starting the downswing. The other

372
00:20:44.020 --> 00:20:44.480
thing would

373
00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:50.030
be looking at the direction that you're pushing on the club. So whether you're

374
00:20:50.030 --> 00:20:50.880
pulling more

375
00:20:50.880 --> 00:20:57.790
down or whether you have a feeling of almost pushing more up that can have a I

376
00:20:57.790 --> 00:20:58.560
've got

377
00:20:58.560 --> 00:21:03.070
a video coming out probably next week not this week but the following week that

378
00:21:03.070 --> 00:21:03.600
relates

379
00:21:03.600 --> 00:21:09.590
to how the hands push on the club and how it relates to arm shallowing. I've

380
00:21:09.590 --> 00:21:10.160
had some

381
00:21:10.160 --> 00:21:17.400
good success with some kind of mid lower handicap golfers with that feel. One

382
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:17.960
more and then

383
00:21:17.960 --> 00:21:24.910
we'll jump back to the the emails. All right what type of backswing would you

384
00:21:24.910 --> 00:21:25.400
recommend

385
00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:30.620
if the autonomic core system of lateral head of the bicep is injured since a

386
00:21:30.620 --> 00:21:31.480
couple months

387
00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:41.200
ago the 13 handicap. So lateral head of the bicep it's like is it more though

388
00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:42.000
is it the

389
00:21:42.000 --> 00:21:46.030
left arm bicep or is it the right arm bicep. I'll come back to your question

390
00:21:46.030 --> 00:21:46.640
but I need

391
00:21:46.640 --> 00:21:51.810
a little bit more information. Okay so let me jump into some more of the email

392
00:21:51.810 --> 00:21:52.280
questions

393
00:21:52.280 --> 00:21:58.110
and then we'll get to some of these questions pouring in online. All right so

394
00:21:58.110 --> 00:21:59.120
Adam, Adam

395
00:21:59.120 --> 00:22:06.340
asked if we were doing slow motion sequence positions what would kind of the

396
00:22:06.340 --> 00:22:07.240
tempo be.

397
00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:11.750
So basically like if we had position one is the takeaway two as the start of

398
00:22:11.750 --> 00:22:12.560
transition

399
00:22:12.560 --> 00:22:17.140
three end of transition beginning of release for end of the release with the

400
00:22:17.140 --> 00:22:17.880
tempo beat

401
00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:23.750
even. Typically most of the all the research will show that the downswing is

402
00:22:23.750 --> 00:22:24.920
about a third

403
00:22:24.920 --> 00:22:32.840
of the backswing. So it has kind of a little bit more of a one two versus a one

404
00:22:32.840 --> 00:22:33.960
two where

405
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:37.950
it's more the same tempo would be more like wedge shots or is you're getting

406
00:22:37.950 --> 00:22:38.720
into putting

407
00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:46.450
but it tends to be much faster on the downswing. So if you're training tempo

408
00:22:46.450 --> 00:22:48.360
and rhythm I would

409
00:22:48.360 --> 00:22:55.510
tend to say if you're counting it out you would want a little bit like one

410
00:22:55.510 --> 00:22:57.080
thousand one

411
00:22:57.080 --> 00:23:01.710
two is something that I've used for golfers in the past instead of trying to

412
00:23:01.710 --> 00:23:03.040
count differently

413
00:23:03.040 --> 00:23:06.930
just take a word that is going to take a lot longer to say or about three times

414
00:23:06.930 --> 00:23:07.400
longer

415
00:23:07.400 --> 00:23:13.560
to say. So I would do that one that one piece takeaway as position one one

416
00:23:13.560 --> 00:23:14.640
thousand one

417
00:23:14.640 --> 00:23:20.770
two and that would kind of get me all the way through there. Now it's really

418
00:23:20.770 --> 00:23:21.360
hard if

419
00:23:21.360 --> 00:23:30.280
you're doing it in sequence to to break up the transition and the release. But

420
00:23:30.280 --> 00:23:30.440
if you're

421
00:23:30.440 --> 00:23:37.760
doing it in more of the actual phase I would recommend doing it at half speed.

422
00:23:37.760 --> 00:23:38.080
So you might

423
00:23:38.080 --> 00:23:44.680
have to say it twice so let's go one thousand one one thousand one one two. So

424
00:23:44.680 --> 00:23:45.160
you go one

425
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:50.250
thousand one one thousand one one two. And that would be slow motion training

426
00:23:50.250 --> 00:23:50.800
of more

427
00:23:50.800 --> 00:23:55.280
of the release and the follow through with a little bit of a tempo component to

428
00:23:55.280 --> 00:23:55.640
it but

429
00:23:55.640 --> 00:24:00.640
the downswing tempo is usually about three times faster than the backswing.

430
00:24:00.640 --> 00:24:01.360
Okay Fred

431
00:24:01.360 --> 00:24:06.790
had a bunch of questions so we'll get through some of his. First one he was

432
00:24:06.790 --> 00:24:07.240
asking about

433
00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:11.870
the orange whip wedge he just got it and he asked how do you practice it can

434
00:24:11.870 --> 00:24:12.360
you use

435
00:24:12.360 --> 00:24:16.440
it for distance wedges as well as finesse. I'm definitely a bigger fan of using

436
00:24:16.440 --> 00:24:16.840
it for

437
00:24:16.840 --> 00:24:22.490
finesse and the way I like to use it I know a couple coaches that use it polar

438
00:24:22.490 --> 00:24:23.440
opposites

439
00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:29.160
but the way I like to use it is having my students try to make the swing where

440
00:24:29.160 --> 00:24:30.560
the wedge does

441
00:24:30.560 --> 00:24:38.850
not move so there's basically no downswing loading. I know of a coach who's

442
00:24:38.850 --> 00:24:39.640
really good

443
00:24:39.640 --> 00:24:44.970
at getting more of the speed out into the handle but the real benefit and what

444
00:24:44.970 --> 00:24:45.480
I like

445
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:52.000
about that orange whip wedge is making sure that I'm not getting any loading of

446
00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:52.840
the shaft

447
00:24:52.840 --> 00:25:00.080
in transition so feeling really almost castee and like the arms dropping and

448
00:25:00.080 --> 00:25:01.200
the weight

449
00:25:01.200 --> 00:25:04.620
of the club head is starting the downswing. We know that that's not really the

450
00:25:04.620 --> 00:25:05.000
case there's

451
00:25:05.000 --> 00:25:09.830
definitely some lower body movement but it's a feeling of more the weight out

452
00:25:09.830 --> 00:25:10.600
of the club

453
00:25:10.600 --> 00:25:17.790
and when you use the wedge it won't bend and flex very much. Second I don't

454
00:25:17.790 --> 00:25:18.680
like it as

455
00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:22.830
well for distance wedges maybe up to about 50 yards but when you start getting

456
00:25:22.830 --> 00:25:24.800
past there

457
00:25:24.800 --> 00:25:30.680
if you do have any amount of motorcycle and shaft lean it'll tend or motorcycle

458
00:25:30.680 --> 00:25:31.200
and more

459
00:25:31.200 --> 00:25:35.410
of a power sequence it does tend to hit the ball off to the right so I like it

460
00:25:35.410 --> 00:25:36.040
a lot more

461
00:25:36.040 --> 00:25:43.840
for around the greens but I know that we're having stand out late here sometime

462
00:25:43.840 --> 00:25:44.760
this spring

463
00:25:44.760 --> 00:25:48.490
so I'll pick his brain about how he uses it for distance wedges because he's

464
00:25:48.490 --> 00:25:49.000
the he's

465
00:25:49.000 --> 00:25:56.640
the king of that training tool. Okay his second question do I prefer low flight

466
00:25:56.640 --> 00:25:57.480
ed wedges with

467
00:25:57.480 --> 00:26:03.450
no divot? So there's two parts to this question. I do prefer low flighted wed

468
00:26:03.450 --> 00:26:05.280
ges the tour average

469
00:26:05.280 --> 00:26:10.960
you know being somewhere around 30 degrees of launch angle when I watch the

470
00:26:10.960 --> 00:26:11.800
guys close

471
00:26:11.800 --> 00:26:16.980
up you don't really see anyone deviating from that pattern. Now the key there

472
00:26:16.980 --> 00:26:17.800
or the second

473
00:26:17.800 --> 00:26:21.950
part of the question was where you take no divot that is entirely grass

474
00:26:21.950 --> 00:26:22.960
dependent. I've

475
00:26:22.960 --> 00:26:29.140
seen different events where they're taking fairly significant divots and other

476
00:26:29.140 --> 00:26:29.760
events

477
00:26:29.760 --> 00:26:38.100
where the grass is barely moved so it really depends on the saturation the root

478
00:26:38.100 --> 00:26:39.360
structure.

479
00:26:39.360 --> 00:26:47.440
I like to get a certain baseline at your home course but the key there is wed

480
00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:48.600
ges are steep

481
00:26:48.600 --> 00:26:54.000
but they have a low point that's relatively close to the ground so it's steep

482
00:26:54.000 --> 00:26:54.680
and it has

483
00:26:54.680 --> 00:27:00.440
a fair amount of overtaking or the club passing on the way through compared to

484
00:27:00.440 --> 00:27:01.360
the full swing

485
00:27:01.360 --> 00:27:07.080
and that's part of how you can be steep and not really gouge the ground but the

486
00:27:07.080 --> 00:27:07.840
size of

487
00:27:07.840 --> 00:27:15.970
the divot is going to depend a fair amount on the third conditions. He asked

488
00:27:15.970 --> 00:27:16.480
let's see

489
00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:21.540
you one more thread and then we'll jump back. Where is my main power source so

490
00:27:21.540 --> 00:27:22.040
how can I

491
00:27:22.040 --> 00:27:26.700
tell in the book I talk about one of the areas you know being or one way being

492
00:27:26.700 --> 00:27:27.320
where are

493
00:27:27.320 --> 00:27:33.840
you sore. I just did a video this past week where I showed kind of one where I

494
00:27:33.840 --> 00:27:34.560
showed

495
00:27:34.560 --> 00:27:40.860
the one of the key differences in the different power sources. First I categor

496
00:27:40.860 --> 00:27:41.920
ize a more lower

497
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:49.360
body core or we more upper body and that can be determined by what's going on

498
00:27:49.360 --> 00:27:50.200
in here.

499
00:27:50.200 --> 00:27:54.590
Once you've figured out whether your upper body or more core lower body it gets

500
00:27:54.590 --> 00:27:55.160
a little

501
00:27:55.160 --> 00:28:02.480
bit trickier to try and identify exactly whether you're doing it more from the

502
00:28:02.480 --> 00:28:03.120
right

503
00:28:03.120 --> 00:28:07.270
side or more from the left side or right arm or left arm and that's where I

504
00:28:07.270 --> 00:28:08.320
would go to

505
00:28:08.320 --> 00:28:12.380
more of the soreness but he mentioned that he feels it more in his lower back

506
00:28:12.380 --> 00:28:12.920
and that

507
00:28:12.920 --> 00:28:20.820
could be more of a transition or more of an impact kind of compensation as

508
00:28:20.820 --> 00:28:21.920
opposed to

509
00:28:21.920 --> 00:28:28.860
more of a creating speed creating power phenomena. So I would start with that

510
00:28:28.860 --> 00:28:29.360
kind

511
00:28:29.360 --> 00:28:34.420
of corner zone but basically the blend of transition to release will reveal a

512
00:28:34.420 --> 00:28:34.920
lot and

513
00:28:34.920 --> 00:28:41.700
then you you can do strategies like if you're more upper body dominant and you

514
00:28:41.700 --> 00:28:42.600
did more

515
00:28:42.600 --> 00:28:46.810
of a lead arm only or a trail arm only which one feels the most similar that

516
00:28:46.810 --> 00:28:47.440
will give

517
00:28:47.440 --> 00:28:51.480
you an idea as far as right first left. If you exaggerated more weight forward

518
00:28:51.480 --> 00:28:51.640
weight

519
00:28:51.640 --> 00:28:56.990
back you could break down the lower body a little bit that way but it's more of

520
00:28:56.990 --> 00:28:57.440
an art

521
00:28:57.440 --> 00:29:01.740
than a true science to figure out your exact power sources that way. Actually

522
00:29:01.740 --> 00:29:02.040
we'll do

523
00:29:02.040 --> 00:29:05.640
one more because he has a real quick one. How is lifting a power source? So I

524
00:29:05.640 --> 00:29:06.360
talk about

525
00:29:06.360 --> 00:29:11.710
chopped verse lift or crunched verse extend while those different patterns. So

526
00:29:11.710 --> 00:29:12.320
lifting

527
00:29:12.320 --> 00:29:16.620
is a power source just the same way a chop would be. So imagine I have a

528
00:29:16.620 --> 00:29:17.600
medicine ball

529
00:29:17.600 --> 00:29:22.790
or a cable machine and I was going to pull a medicine ball or cable down that

530
00:29:22.790 --> 00:29:23.440
way. That

531
00:29:23.440 --> 00:29:28.370
would be creating force in that direction. Now imagine that I had a cable down

532
00:29:28.370 --> 00:29:28.800
there

533
00:29:28.800 --> 00:29:35.630
and now I was going to pull that cable or throw a ball a medicine ball up that

534
00:29:35.630 --> 00:29:36.200
way.

535
00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:41.180
That would be more of a lift pattern and that's what you'll tend to see with

536
00:29:41.180 --> 00:29:42.120
the with

537
00:29:42.120 --> 00:29:45.930
more of the tour swing. So with more of the driver in the long irons you'll

538
00:29:45.930 --> 00:29:46.240
tend to see

539
00:29:46.240 --> 00:29:50.660
more of a pattern where the energy in those arms are lifting up off the body

540
00:29:50.660 --> 00:29:51.920
which complements

541
00:29:51.920 --> 00:29:56.330
the body rotation on the way through and then more in the wedges and the short

542
00:29:56.330 --> 00:29:56.880
irons you'll

543
00:29:56.880 --> 00:30:02.380
see more of that chop pattern which complements more of a drifting less kind of

544
00:30:02.380 --> 00:30:03.360
bracing and

545
00:30:03.360 --> 00:30:09.950
powered generation from the from the corn body. Okay let's get back to some of

546
00:30:09.950 --> 00:30:10.720
these

547
00:30:10.720 --> 00:30:16.020
questions. Still didn't get which bicep from Mike so I got to move on. Golf

548
00:30:16.020 --> 00:30:17.240
Junkie asked

549
00:30:17.240 --> 00:30:21.530
are the Zora loops initiated from a closed upper body should it feel as if the

550
00:30:21.530 --> 00:30:22.200
forearms

551
00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:26.850
are rolling over. I understand that they are not but it might feel that they

552
00:30:26.850 --> 00:30:29.120
are. Yes the

553
00:30:29.120 --> 00:30:34.370
Zora loop is initiated basically at transition so your upper body is probably

554
00:30:34.370 --> 00:30:35.520
90 degrees

555
00:30:35.520 --> 00:30:42.530
closed at that point and what I like to what a lot of golfers describe the feel

556
00:30:42.530 --> 00:30:43.480
as is as

557
00:30:43.480 --> 00:30:49.010
those arms roll over they're also extending and most golfers feel it as more of

558
00:30:49.010 --> 00:30:50.760
this extension

559
00:30:50.760 --> 00:30:55.060
not so much of a rolling over. The danger of if it feels too much like rolling

560
00:30:55.060 --> 00:30:55.640
over is

561
00:30:55.640 --> 00:31:00.070
down at the bottom you can get kind of this steep look and the club going that

562
00:31:00.070 --> 00:31:01.560
way where

563
00:31:01.560 --> 00:31:06.050
if you have it more of the rotation where the club is going out the hands will

564
00:31:06.050 --> 00:31:06.720
work a little

565
00:31:06.720 --> 00:31:11.390
bit more left but the club will finish down the line and you'll finish with the

566
00:31:11.390 --> 00:31:11.880
club more

567
00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:18.960
in line with your forearms instead of that kind of quick flip look on the

568
00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:20.960
follow through.

569
00:31:20.960 --> 00:31:26.960
Jason asked release question one of my favorite topics good question for one

570
00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:28.360
who has mobility

571
00:31:28.360 --> 00:31:33.670
limitations and struggles to get into right lateral bend what other perhaps

572
00:31:33.670 --> 00:31:34.800
earlier shallowing

573
00:31:34.800 --> 00:31:41.410
movements are essentially keep the path from going too far left so if you there

574
00:31:41.410 --> 00:31:43.280
's a there's

575
00:31:43.280 --> 00:31:48.790
a later question to all kind of combo that one to one of Fred's he was asking

576
00:31:48.790 --> 00:31:49.560
about what

577
00:31:49.560 --> 00:31:54.660
do you do with older golfers because once you get over the age of about 60 you

578
00:31:54.660 --> 00:31:55.480
lose about

579
00:31:55.480 --> 00:32:00.640
two thirds of your right lateral bend so you won't see too many Justin Johnson

580
00:32:00.640 --> 00:32:01.280
's out on

581
00:32:01.280 --> 00:32:06.570
the senior tour it's just a phenomenon of what happens to the spine well I I

582
00:32:06.570 --> 00:32:08.760
coach I tell most

583
00:32:08.760 --> 00:32:12.700
of my senior golfers to do some stretching and try to get as much from the hips

584
00:32:12.700 --> 00:32:13.120
as you

585
00:32:13.120 --> 00:32:18.170
can because there's no real reason you need to lose a lot of the hip mobility

586
00:32:18.170 --> 00:32:18.960
if you can't

587
00:32:18.960 --> 00:32:24.710
do the spine but let's for argument sake say that we've lost that ability to

588
00:32:24.710 --> 00:32:25.400
really right

589
00:32:25.400 --> 00:32:30.060
lateral bend either from the hips or from the spot so now since this isn't

590
00:32:30.060 --> 00:32:30.920
going to get

591
00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:34.790
down towards the ground I'm going to have to use my arms a little bit earlier

592
00:32:34.790 --> 00:32:35.520
so straving

593
00:32:35.520 --> 00:32:42.350
the arms is a shallower and the the danger is that that will cause the low

594
00:32:42.350 --> 00:32:43.120
point to move

595
00:32:43.120 --> 00:32:49.130
backward unless I drift a little bit more forward so what I usually coach is if

596
00:32:49.130 --> 00:32:49.680
you're

597
00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:54.100
going to do more of an upper body cast pattern I focus a lot on upper body

598
00:32:54.100 --> 00:32:55.120
stability and

599
00:32:55.120 --> 00:33:00.630
I focus more on kind of the rhythm of when the arms extend instead of the

600
00:33:00.630 --> 00:33:02.320
absolute positions

601
00:33:02.320 --> 00:33:08.840
I also still focus and get a lot of success working on the motorcycle movement

602
00:33:08.840 --> 00:33:09.600
and it's

603
00:33:09.600 --> 00:33:16.120
more of a kind of getting those arms to extend out in front as opposed to less

604
00:33:16.120 --> 00:33:18.480
of that like

605
00:33:18.480 --> 00:33:22.790
body driven white movement it's more just the arm direction white movement you

606
00:33:22.790 --> 00:33:23.320
'll tend

607
00:33:23.320 --> 00:33:27.210
to have a little bit steeper angle of attack that way so for the longer clubs

608
00:33:27.210 --> 00:33:28.000
you may have

609
00:33:28.000 --> 00:33:34.990
to make some conversations potentially a little bit more loft playing a shorter

610
00:33:34.990 --> 00:33:35.480
club some

611
00:33:35.480 --> 00:33:41.690
setup changes but I typically what if you've lost lateral bend a cast pattern

612
00:33:41.690 --> 00:33:42.560
does help

613
00:33:42.560 --> 00:33:46.870
in terms of shallowing things out and making sure that you're not spinning too

614
00:33:46.870 --> 00:33:47.480
much from

615
00:33:47.480 --> 00:33:51.340
your upper body can help make sure it showers it out both of those would help

616
00:33:51.340 --> 00:33:51.960
prevent the

617
00:33:51.960 --> 00:33:59.520
path from getting too far left Jason also said the book is fantastic by the way

618
00:33:59.520 --> 00:33:59.600
thank

619
00:33:59.600 --> 00:34:04.420
you very much I really appreciate the feedback some of it's been a little

620
00:34:04.420 --> 00:34:05.480
overwhelming the

621
00:34:05.480 --> 00:34:10.140
way you empower the readers to deco the pattern and the stuffs on steep and

622
00:34:10.140 --> 00:34:11.320
shallows is gold

623
00:34:11.320 --> 00:34:16.450
well thank you very much I you know I had a lesson this week and the gentleman

624
00:34:16.450 --> 00:34:18.000
said that

625
00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:24.300
you know he doesn't hit every shot perfectly but it's fun because he's at least

626
00:34:24.300 --> 00:34:25.120
able to

627
00:34:25.120 --> 00:34:29.560
move the needle as he described it or basically he can kind of self correct if

628
00:34:29.560 --> 00:34:30.400
he starts having

629
00:34:30.400 --> 00:34:37.900
some problems so that's the that's what I think is the ultimate goal right no

630
00:34:37.900 --> 00:34:38.520
one ever

631
00:34:38.520 --> 00:34:44.280
has their swing perfect forever the goal is that you learn the tools to be able

632
00:34:44.280 --> 00:34:44.960
to course

633
00:34:44.960 --> 00:34:49.060
correct and self-correct when it gets off because I promise if you think you

634
00:34:49.060 --> 00:34:51.280
have it today by next

635
00:34:51.280 --> 00:34:55.380
week something will have crept in and you better have the strategy to be able

636
00:34:55.380 --> 00:34:58.240
to handle it Patrick

637
00:34:58.240 --> 00:35:03.870
asked can you explain how to shallow the arms while the hand path works down

638
00:35:03.870 --> 00:35:05.200
mine tend to work

639
00:35:05.200 --> 00:35:14.630
out too much so typically working through this question so typically when the

640
00:35:14.630 --> 00:35:16.080
hands move out

641
00:35:16.080 --> 00:35:21.370
the club will shallow unless it goes more everything together so let's say that

642
00:35:21.370 --> 00:35:23.120
my interpretation of

643
00:35:23.120 --> 00:35:26.090
the question is that everything is going out together so the club's not shall

644
00:35:26.090 --> 00:35:27.200
owing what's typically

645
00:35:27.200 --> 00:35:32.710
happening there is that more of the that transition move is happening more from

646
00:35:32.710 --> 00:35:34.400
that left shoulder

647
00:35:34.400 --> 00:35:41.730
kind of spinning as opposed to a feeling getting more of a little bit of

648
00:35:41.730 --> 00:35:44.400
stretch so if I if I face

649
00:35:44.400 --> 00:35:48.790
this way what you'll see is as my lower body starts can you see how that

650
00:35:48.790 --> 00:35:50.160
shoulder blade gets

651
00:35:50.160 --> 00:35:56.420
stretched a bit so the shoulder is not following the rib cage movement for the

652
00:35:56.420 --> 00:35:58.080
initial portion of

653
00:35:58.080 --> 00:36:04.630
the downswing allowing the arms to have some softness and let them kind of

654
00:36:04.630 --> 00:36:05.840
shallow a bit

655
00:36:05.840 --> 00:36:10.820
a bit because again typically when the hands work out if it's purely from the

656
00:36:10.820 --> 00:36:11.920
arms perspective

657
00:36:11.920 --> 00:36:16.460
that's the force that causes it to shallow but if the hands work out because of

658
00:36:16.460 --> 00:36:17.280
the body or the

659
00:36:17.280 --> 00:36:22.680
left shoulder kind of pulling back that will cause it to steepen okay let's get

660
00:36:22.680 --> 00:36:24.480
back to a few of these

661
00:36:25.440 --> 00:36:33.680
email questions so Fred asked if the kinematic sequence isn't the only way what

662
00:36:33.680 --> 00:36:34.400
other successful

663
00:36:34.400 --> 00:36:38.900
patterns do you see so in the last class he was asking about or in the last

664
00:36:38.900 --> 00:36:40.160
youtube live he was

665
00:36:40.160 --> 00:36:45.780
asking about what kinematic like what's the stock tour swing kinematic sequence

666
00:36:45.780 --> 00:36:47.440
pattern and

667
00:36:48.720 --> 00:36:54.480
I with the kinematic sequence you will typically see a very consistent

668
00:36:54.480 --> 00:36:55.680
transition sequence of

669
00:36:55.680 --> 00:37:02.960
pelvis um pelvis trunk arm club but when you start working at looking at the pe

670
00:37:02.960 --> 00:37:04.240
aking order

671
00:37:04.240 --> 00:37:10.000
you'll typically see the lower body go first but or peak first but not always

672
00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:10.560
sometimes it has

673
00:37:10.560 --> 00:37:16.560
more of a plateau sometimes it's later um it really depends on swing styles

674
00:37:16.560 --> 00:37:18.080
body capabilities release

675
00:37:18.080 --> 00:37:24.000
patterns whether you prioritize distance whether you prioritize accuracy so the

676
00:37:24.000 --> 00:37:24.880
transition I would

677
00:37:24.880 --> 00:37:29.570
say you know what what everybody said the kinematics sequence shows absolutely

678
00:37:29.570 --> 00:37:30.560
correct what everyone's

679
00:37:30.560 --> 00:37:35.280
talked from the ground up all that stuff is well and true if you're talking

680
00:37:35.280 --> 00:37:36.560
about the downswing

681
00:37:36.560 --> 00:37:42.240
peaking order I've just seen way too many examples of really good ball strikers

682
00:37:42.240 --> 00:37:43.360
like you know elite

683
00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:48.020
level toward ball strikers who don't have a perfect uh one two three four kinem

684
00:37:48.020 --> 00:37:49.440
atic sequence oftentimes

685
00:37:49.440 --> 00:37:55.200
it's one three two four uh but there are some really good ball strikers who

686
00:37:55.200 --> 00:37:56.160
where it's more

687
00:37:56.160 --> 00:38:04.160
stacked up and the time delay between one two three are is almost nothing so um

688
00:38:04.160 --> 00:38:04.800
I would say

689
00:38:04.800 --> 00:38:11.790
if you're use the kinematic sequence and more as a reference for guiding what

690
00:38:11.790 --> 00:38:12.720
you want to work on

691
00:38:13.760 --> 00:38:19.050
in the gym like where the potential injury points are where the potential

692
00:38:19.050 --> 00:38:20.320
weaknesses or

693
00:38:20.320 --> 00:38:26.150
inhibitions are and then use that as more of a long-term focus of what to work

694
00:38:26.150 --> 00:38:27.280
on rehab wise

695
00:38:27.280 --> 00:38:32.410
strength wise as opposed to um the downswing peaking port order being an

696
00:38:32.410 --> 00:38:33.760
absolute guide of

697
00:38:33.760 --> 00:38:39.880
what it takes to be consistent uh so I um I kind of already answered his last

698
00:38:39.880 --> 00:38:42.000
question about golfers

699
00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:46.810
who can't left tilt during stiff uh due to stiffness but he did ask about what

700
00:38:46.810 --> 00:38:47.600
about early

701
00:38:47.600 --> 00:38:53.590
extension um I basically okay so if I can't left tilt or sorry if I can't right

702
00:38:53.590 --> 00:38:54.560
tilt then

703
00:38:54.560 --> 00:39:01.670
maybe I can early extend in order to create um some of the shallowness well um

704
00:39:01.670 --> 00:39:02.960
I'm not a big fan

705
00:39:02.960 --> 00:39:06.560
of coaching early extension at any level if you're going if you need to be

706
00:39:06.560 --> 00:39:07.680
taller to be shallower

707
00:39:07.680 --> 00:39:12.100
than I would recommend starting taller to begin with for my older golfers um I

708
00:39:12.100 --> 00:39:13.760
think that the

709
00:39:13.760 --> 00:39:21.440
bigger combination is getting more of a um cast pattern so getting that arm to

710
00:39:21.440 --> 00:39:21.920
straighten a

711
00:39:21.920 --> 00:39:26.480
little bit sooner and timing that with the right amount of lunge and the right

712
00:39:26.480 --> 00:39:27.840
amount of upper body

713
00:39:27.840 --> 00:39:32.800
position so I do a lot of upper body location training making sure that um they

714
00:39:32.800 --> 00:39:34.000
're pretty accurate

715
00:39:34.000 --> 00:39:38.680
with where that is and I do a lot of rhythm training and I still do a lot of

716
00:39:38.680 --> 00:39:40.240
the motorcycle training

717
00:39:40.240 --> 00:39:46.600
it's just a little bit more arm driven instead of um more body driven okay uh

718
00:39:46.600 --> 00:39:49.840
question from Joseph

719
00:39:49.840 --> 00:39:55.350
when uh he's working on the motorcycle he says when I kind of do it too quickly

720
00:39:55.350 --> 00:39:58.560
um and so basically

721
00:39:58.560 --> 00:40:03.680
what he's asking is when he's doing the motorcycle he he kind of does it really

722
00:40:03.680 --> 00:40:05.120
aggressively at the

723
00:40:05.120 --> 00:40:09.460
top and what ends up happening is it goes a little bit steep like this so he

724
00:40:09.460 --> 00:40:10.720
tends to hit more of

725
00:40:10.720 --> 00:40:16.390
kind of steep and um chunky poles um what I would say there is really monitor

726
00:40:16.390 --> 00:40:17.520
the grip pressure

727
00:40:17.520 --> 00:40:23.740
especially in that trail hand um and work a little bit more on the owner

728
00:40:23.740 --> 00:40:25.680
deviation or getting the club

729
00:40:25.680 --> 00:40:31.600
to shallow out um this way while you're doing it what can what can happen is if

730
00:40:31.600 --> 00:40:32.560
you just focus on

731
00:40:32.560 --> 00:40:37.360
that motorcycle movement the past starts to get too steep and then you have um

732
00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:38.240
some of what he

733
00:40:38.240 --> 00:40:42.490
described as toe contact you have some of these predictable mispatterns um that

734
00:40:42.490 --> 00:40:43.440
happen from more

735
00:40:43.440 --> 00:40:49.250
of a steepness not from a motorcycle thing uh he asks when does the lead wrist

736
00:40:49.250 --> 00:40:50.640
go into supination

737
00:40:50.640 --> 00:40:56.260
um so on the 3d graphs the lead wrist will start going into supination right

738
00:40:56.260 --> 00:40:57.760
around shaft 45 so

739
00:40:57.760 --> 00:41:03.700
kind of right about here is where the wrist starts to supinate and the neat

740
00:41:03.700 --> 00:41:06.240
thing is it's as it's

741
00:41:06.240 --> 00:41:10.780
going in transition so through here it's pronating so that I can start sup

742
00:41:10.780 --> 00:41:12.240
inating without having the

743
00:41:12.240 --> 00:41:17.120
club follow it initially so it kind of ramps up it's not really an explosive

744
00:41:17.120 --> 00:41:18.800
the explosive action

745
00:41:18.800 --> 00:41:23.930
but it starts right about here and it'll end um basically at the end of the

746
00:41:23.930 --> 00:41:25.040
release roughly shaft

747
00:41:25.040 --> 00:41:31.900
parallel to the ground uh here's the last question um how does the trail wrist

748
00:41:31.900 --> 00:41:34.160
go into extension um

749
00:41:34.160 --> 00:41:39.200
from p2 to the top of the swing and make it more vertical not behind um well

750
00:41:39.200 --> 00:41:40.800
when we look at how

751
00:41:40.800 --> 00:41:47.320
the wrists are on the club um that trail wrist is not truly on the side of the

752
00:41:47.320 --> 00:41:48.320
club it's a little

753
00:41:48.320 --> 00:41:53.110
bit more on top so when I extend the wrist especially if I add radial deviation

754
00:41:53.110 --> 00:41:54.640
at the same time

755
00:41:54.640 --> 00:41:59.520
that will tend to move the club more up in line with the forearm as opposed to

756
00:41:59.520 --> 00:42:01.520
around this way to

757
00:42:01.520 --> 00:42:07.530
get it more around this way you'll see in addition to extension I also had to

758
00:42:07.530 --> 00:42:08.960
do a fair amount of

759
00:42:08.960 --> 00:42:17.120
rotation right so working on that trail wrist to um extend wall radial dev

760
00:42:17.120 --> 00:42:19.920
iating um will help make

761
00:42:19.920 --> 00:42:25.920
it more uh vertical as opposed to extension and letting that shoulder rotate or

762
00:42:25.920 --> 00:42:27.120
letting that lead

763
00:42:27.120 --> 00:42:32.390
arm come away too much which would make it a little bit more horizontally um

764
00:42:32.390 --> 00:42:34.080
the key there is the if

765
00:42:34.080 --> 00:42:38.970
you get it more vertical so if you're across the line I'll exaggerate if I'm

766
00:42:38.970 --> 00:42:40.560
really across the line

767
00:42:40.560 --> 00:42:44.830
then I really have to shallow um the more that I get it in that horizontal

768
00:42:44.830 --> 00:42:46.000
position more like a

769
00:42:46.000 --> 00:42:52.420
john rom I don't have to shallow quite as um aggressively or as long so just

770
00:42:52.420 --> 00:42:54.480
making sure that

771
00:42:54.480 --> 00:42:59.650
you're utilizing radial deviation um while you're going into extension because

772
00:42:59.650 --> 00:43:00.400
those are kind of

773
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:06.960
couple motions and making sure that it's not um rotating too much uh supination

774
00:43:06.960 --> 00:43:08.400
will prevent it

775
00:43:08.400 --> 00:43:17.520
from getting um too flat at the top or too flat or more around you okay um come

776
00:43:17.520 --> 00:43:18.880
back to that when

777
00:43:18.880 --> 00:43:24.320
I see another live question Craig where should you where do I like to see the

778
00:43:24.320 --> 00:43:25.680
club face at P2

779
00:43:25.680 --> 00:43:32.230
and at P6 should it match the spine angle or both at both positions um I'm a

780
00:43:32.230 --> 00:43:36.560
lot uh as far as P2 goes

781
00:43:36.560 --> 00:43:43.710
I'm definitely like I look at the ranges and where it is at P2 is um you can be

782
00:43:43.710 --> 00:43:45.120
anywhere from let's

783
00:43:45.120 --> 00:43:49.620
say vertical to spine angle and I guess I would say that's pretty close to the

784
00:43:49.620 --> 00:43:51.680
same at P6 um anywhere

785
00:43:51.680 --> 00:43:55.450
from vertical to spine angle the the key thing is understanding the

786
00:43:55.450 --> 00:43:57.280
relationship of okay the more

787
00:43:57.280 --> 00:44:02.070
closed it is the more that I could um body rotate and wipe so the more I could

788
00:44:02.070 --> 00:44:03.600
potentially take the

789
00:44:03.600 --> 00:44:09.100
hands out of it um the the more vertical it is the more I'm still going to have

790
00:44:09.100 --> 00:44:10.080
to continue

791
00:44:10.080 --> 00:44:14.670
that motorcycle late and some guys especially if you have a lot of tension if

792
00:44:14.670 --> 00:44:16.400
you create a lot of

793
00:44:17.360 --> 00:44:21.600
arm tension and really grip the club down at the bottom it's very hard to have

794
00:44:21.600 --> 00:44:22.960
the continued rotation

795
00:44:22.960 --> 00:44:27.350
so if you know that you have a constitution where you're more you're really

796
00:44:27.350 --> 00:44:28.640
going to hold on

797
00:44:28.640 --> 00:44:33.440
on the way through and tighten those arms then I would probably try to get it a

798
00:44:33.440 --> 00:44:34.400
little bit more

799
00:44:34.400 --> 00:44:42.800
close to spine angle um if you have some softness in your arms you can you have

800
00:44:42.800 --> 00:44:43.440
a little bit more

801
00:44:43.440 --> 00:44:48.240
flexibility you can do either or now that being said with if we're now talking

802
00:44:48.240 --> 00:44:49.520
short irons wedges

803
00:44:49.520 --> 00:44:54.080
I would like to see it closer to toe vertical if you're looking at more driver

804
00:44:54.080 --> 00:44:54.800
long irons I would

805
00:44:54.800 --> 00:44:59.800
like to see it closer to the spine angle but it's more um matching relative

806
00:44:59.800 --> 00:45:01.280
pieces rather than an

807
00:45:01.280 --> 00:45:08.210
absolute look that you're trying to train okay last one um but quick one on

808
00:45:08.210 --> 00:45:09.520
here is there an

809
00:45:09.520 --> 00:45:13.920
archive um I believe that they're linked on youtube um for those on the site I

810
00:45:13.920 --> 00:45:16.000
am going to um copy

811
00:45:16.000 --> 00:45:21.040
them over and create a playlist of all the archived uh Q&As so that way you can

812
00:45:21.040 --> 00:45:22.080
check out all the ones

813
00:45:22.080 --> 00:45:27.590
that I've done in the past um okay uh Jim had a last minute question he emailed

814
00:45:27.590 --> 00:45:29.360
right before um

815
00:45:29.360 --> 00:45:33.390
about the right arm what does the right arm do in the backswing in the down

816
00:45:33.390 --> 00:45:34.640
swing specifically

817
00:45:34.640 --> 00:45:39.620
the right wrist so um he he had some really good success working on the

818
00:45:39.620 --> 00:45:41.280
motorcycle and the wipe

819
00:45:41.280 --> 00:45:45.950
combo um but then he was getting a little bit of a steep steeper mispattern so

820
00:45:45.950 --> 00:45:47.040
we started to try

821
00:45:47.040 --> 00:45:51.230
to introduce some older deviation and in getting that older deviation we were

822
00:45:51.230 --> 00:45:52.400
losing what's going

823
00:45:52.400 --> 00:45:58.210
on at the the trail wrist um so in that last question I kind of described some

824
00:45:58.210 --> 00:45:59.280
of what's going on

825
00:45:59.280 --> 00:46:04.610
where basically that right wrist is going to um extend and radial deviate and

826
00:46:04.610 --> 00:46:05.600
it'll feel like it

827
00:46:05.600 --> 00:46:11.100
goes into some pronation as well um as long as the shoulder is then externally

828
00:46:11.100 --> 00:46:12.320
rotated that combo

829
00:46:12.320 --> 00:46:19.070
doesn't put it across the line where if I um don't it radial deviate and if I

830
00:46:19.070 --> 00:46:20.720
supinate but then I

831
00:46:20.720 --> 00:46:24.710
really let my elbow go that's actually the more common pattern for getting

832
00:46:24.710 --> 00:46:26.320
across the line so

833
00:46:27.200 --> 00:46:32.400
I'm rotated kind of like that with some good uh radial deviation then down

834
00:46:32.400 --> 00:46:33.280
through impact

835
00:46:33.280 --> 00:46:39.750
down at the bottom is the trickier zone um through early part of transition or

836
00:46:39.750 --> 00:46:41.040
sorry mid kind of

837
00:46:41.040 --> 00:46:47.210
late transition before you get into the release it's going to um increase that

838
00:46:47.210 --> 00:46:49.040
extension uh radial

839
00:46:49.040 --> 00:46:53.700
deviation and extension so it's gonna have that little white look and then in

840
00:46:53.700 --> 00:46:55.440
order to not bottom

841
00:46:55.440 --> 00:47:00.450
out and lose it uh lose that extension and basically lose your low point

842
00:47:00.450 --> 00:47:02.800
control um one of the big

843
00:47:02.800 --> 00:47:08.500
keys is making sure that the extension of the wrist is maintained it feels like

844
00:47:08.500 --> 00:47:09.440
it's maintained

845
00:47:09.440 --> 00:47:14.560
all the way through impact um but in practicality what'll happen is with the

846
00:47:14.560 --> 00:47:16.400
speed and the bracing

847
00:47:16.400 --> 00:47:21.520
you'll lose that risk through impact but what I find is golfers trying to lose

848
00:47:21.520 --> 00:47:22.800
that wrist tend

849
00:47:22.800 --> 00:47:26.400
to have low point control issues where golfers trying to maintain that

850
00:47:26.400 --> 00:47:28.240
extension and have more

851
00:47:28.240 --> 00:47:34.150
of the rotation of the arm as opposed to more of kind of an attempt to hold it

852
00:47:34.150 --> 00:47:35.360
off like this

853
00:47:35.360 --> 00:47:39.600
tend to have better low point control it can get the low point forward with a

854
00:47:39.600 --> 00:47:40.240
little bit more

855
00:47:40.240 --> 00:47:46.000
um shallower contact so they can get shaft lean without a steep angle of attack

856
00:47:46.000 --> 00:47:47.280
which is uh one of

857
00:47:47.280 --> 00:47:54.390
the key different traders there for um you know good right arm mechanics okay

858
00:47:54.390 --> 00:47:56.800
uh so we we just

859
00:47:56.800 --> 00:48:00.550
crossed kind of the 45 minute zone that's kind of where I like to cap these so

860
00:48:00.550 --> 00:48:01.840
they're not too long

861
00:48:01.840 --> 00:48:06.850
enjoy the rest of march of madness and the master is coming up in two weeks is

862
00:48:06.850 --> 00:48:08.080
a fun time for sports

863
00:48:08.080 --> 00:48:13.760
if you have any questions then that either my comments here triggered or that

864
00:48:13.760 --> 00:48:15.440
somehow I missed

865
00:48:15.440 --> 00:48:21.040
and I didn't answer um please shoot me an email at support@golfsmartacademy.com

866
00:48:21.040 --> 00:48:29.090
if you haven't checked it out this is the the book that um a couple of the

867
00:48:29.090 --> 00:48:30.320
comments were referencing

868
00:48:30.320 --> 00:48:37.660
published in the fall um covers a lot of the overview of how I think my system

869
00:48:37.660 --> 00:48:38.800
works together

870
00:48:38.800 --> 00:48:42.840
and then if you're looking for more details on any of the movements or the

871
00:48:42.840 --> 00:48:43.920
drills head over to

872
00:48:43.920 --> 00:48:49.140
golfsmartacademy.com um please hopefully share this with your friends and uh

873
00:48:49.140 --> 00:48:50.080
yeah if you have any

874
00:48:50.080 --> 00:48:53.270
questions shoot them to me I enjoy doing these and we'll uh we'll get one

875
00:48:53.270 --> 00:48:54.560
scheduled here in the new

876
00:48:54.560 --> 00:49:05.370
future so thanks again for tuning in and enjoy your transition into the golf

877

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:26.160
Alright guys, welcome to the part two edition of the stream on the big

2
00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:27.600
movements. If you

3
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:31.360
have any questions please post them in the chat window and I'll get to as many

4
00:00:31.360 --> 00:00:31.600
as I

5
00:00:31.600 --> 00:00:37.200
can. But as you can see I still had a bunch of email questions that I didn't

6
00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:38.040
have a chance

7
00:00:38.040 --> 00:00:43.740
in to get to. So let me know if there's any audio problems. I got the mic going

8
00:00:43.740 --> 00:00:44.160
so hopefully

9
00:00:44.160 --> 00:00:50.510
we're pretty good. I didn't mean to time it perfectly but hopefully some of you

10
00:00:50.510 --> 00:00:51.000
're jumping

11
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:57.170
over from the Duke Kansas game and hopefully we can have an exciting little

12
00:00:57.170 --> 00:00:57.920
half time show

13
00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:04.870
here. Without further ado, okay Robbie sent a question in about the arm

14
00:01:04.870 --> 00:01:06.760
extension in the

15
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:12.460
follow through. Is it better to train it as part of how you're generating speed

16
00:01:12.460 --> 00:01:12.920
or is

17
00:01:12.920 --> 00:01:19.780
it better to train it as part of how you're controlling path? His comment was

18
00:01:19.780 --> 00:01:20.360
the typically

19
00:01:20.360 --> 00:01:27.540
finds it works better training it with speed. Well, I'm not too big on absol

20
00:01:27.540 --> 00:01:29.160
utes because

21
00:01:29.160 --> 00:01:32.960
it could be related to how the golfer is controlling the path or it could be

22
00:01:32.960 --> 00:01:34.640
how they're controlling

23
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:41.410
the speed. One thing one little kind of insight that I'll give is if it is more

24
00:01:41.410 --> 00:01:42.240
of a power

25
00:01:42.240 --> 00:01:48.840
related issue then training positions is usually not as effective as training

26
00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:49.800
movements. And

27
00:01:49.800 --> 00:01:55.760
so when you're talking about arm extension that can be more related to how they

28
00:01:55.760 --> 00:01:56.880
're powering

29
00:01:56.880 --> 00:02:01.110
the swing because what will happen is a lot of golfers down at the bottom will

30
00:02:01.110 --> 00:02:01.540
feel a

31
00:02:01.540 --> 00:02:06.690
sense of power by bracing and flipping the wrist creating a lot of kind of

32
00:02:06.690 --> 00:02:07.560
tension in

33
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:13.470
the forearms right around impact versus having that continued motorcycle where

34
00:02:13.470 --> 00:02:14.240
the hands

35
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:22.320
are still slightly ahead of the clubhead and the body is just continuing on the

36
00:02:22.320 --> 00:02:25.960
way through.

37
00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:34.480
So I tend to agree with Robbie's question that I think it's more of a creating

38
00:02:34.480 --> 00:02:35.240
speed

39
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:41.850
element that a lot of golfers just feel stronger when they have more forearm

40
00:02:41.850 --> 00:02:43.400
tension and then

41
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:46.980
when they have that forearms tension the body is going to stall right around

42
00:02:46.980 --> 00:02:47.640
impact. So

43
00:02:47.640 --> 00:02:54.740
training like my hit your arms drill or hit my arms tends to create more of a

44
00:02:54.740 --> 00:02:55.640
feeling

45
00:02:55.640 --> 00:03:02.410
of power with a different part of your body and that tends to help really well

46
00:03:02.410 --> 00:03:03.280
with the

47
00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:10.320
getting the better flat spot or arm extension. His second question was is pron

48
00:03:10.320 --> 00:03:11.280
ation of the

49
00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:16.150
trail foot so he was only last time about the trail foot and I talked about how

50
00:03:16.150 --> 00:03:16.800
ideally

51
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:20.750
the sequence is the trail foot will tend to bank and then it will extend and

52
00:03:20.750 --> 00:03:21.440
then after

53
00:03:21.440 --> 00:03:27.730
impact it will rotate mostly because of the rotation of the pivot. His question

54
00:03:27.730 --> 00:03:28.000
was is

55
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:36.540
that pronation of the trail foot independent or is it a reaction of other

56
00:03:36.540 --> 00:03:38.440
movements? Nothing

57
00:03:38.440 --> 00:03:44.430
is truly independent but if you think about it from a more global picture right

58
00:03:44.430 --> 00:03:45.160
if we think

59
00:03:45.160 --> 00:03:50.110
about it as I'm trying to push through the ground and I'm trying to kind of

60
00:03:50.110 --> 00:03:51.080
spiral that

61
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:56.160
leg in a movement kind of like this so I'm letting my arm kind of almost mirror

62
00:03:56.160 --> 00:03:56.680
the way

63
00:03:56.680 --> 00:04:02.850
my foot is pushing against the ground. Well in order to use the big muscles of

64
00:04:02.850 --> 00:04:03.640
my hip my

65
00:04:03.640 --> 00:04:08.440
foot has to create an anchor my foot has to create kind of a connection point

66
00:04:08.440 --> 00:04:09.440
and so

67
00:04:09.440 --> 00:04:16.470
when I start banking that foot it's kind of part of pushing against the inside

68
00:04:16.470 --> 00:04:16.840
of the

69
00:04:16.840 --> 00:04:24.020
foot to allow for that hip to really create some some force because it'll be

70
00:04:24.020 --> 00:04:25.080
have a stronger

71
00:04:25.080 --> 00:04:31.050
fix point and be in a better position or relationship so it's not truly

72
00:04:31.050 --> 00:04:33.920
independent just as in like

73
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:37.960
just by rolling the foot isn't going to make your sequence any get any better

74
00:04:37.960 --> 00:04:38.400
but if you're

75
00:04:38.400 --> 00:04:42.270
using the foot and the hip together the foot will bank slightly before the hip

76
00:04:42.270 --> 00:04:42.720
will go

77
00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:50.470
into extension and external rotation. Where should you look related that

78
00:04:50.470 --> 00:04:51.600
question? Where

79
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:56.880
should you look if students struggle first with that first trail foot movement

80
00:04:56.880 --> 00:04:57.080
so if

81
00:04:57.080 --> 00:05:01.480
they struggle with more of that pronation the foot where should you look. First

82
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:01.800
thing

83
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:07.040
you want to do is just kind of Robbie's coach so I give him kind of the coach's

84
00:05:07.040 --> 00:05:08.200
perspective.

85
00:05:08.200 --> 00:05:11.730
First thing you want to do is just a basic kind of form flat and arches test if

86
00:05:11.730 --> 00:05:12.200
you're

87
00:05:12.200 --> 00:05:17.820
good with the feet you can take off the shoes and you can look at the mobility

88
00:05:17.820 --> 00:05:18.920
if the foot

89
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:22.850
has a hard time banking inside on its own you're going to have a hard time

90
00:05:22.850 --> 00:05:23.400
doing it

91
00:05:23.400 --> 00:05:27.400
with speed in the golf swing. So first thing is just clearing that physical

92
00:05:27.400 --> 00:05:28.600
capability.

93
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:32.940
The second piece would then be if they have a good enough release where they

94
00:05:32.940 --> 00:05:33.760
could handle

95
00:05:33.760 --> 00:05:38.310
having side bend and continue rotating because what'll happen is a lot of golf

96
00:05:38.310 --> 00:05:39.120
ers you start

97
00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:43.710
banking that foot and they start either catching it thin or fat or more on the

98
00:05:43.710 --> 00:05:44.560
toe because

99
00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:49.690
they haven't trained a good enough white position. So work on make sure they

100
00:05:49.690 --> 00:05:50.680
have a release that

101
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:55.980
can support a good foot action and then screen the foot make sure that the foot

102
00:05:55.980 --> 00:05:56.520
is working

103
00:05:56.520 --> 00:06:01.770
properly that usually gets that first movement. Okay Bazz had a question about

104
00:06:01.770 --> 00:06:03.400
the power package.

105
00:06:03.400 --> 00:06:09.180
I don't have the power package training aid but it looks very much like a swing

106
00:06:09.180 --> 00:06:09.840
guy except

107
00:06:09.840 --> 00:06:14.930
it has a second handle coming off of it kind of like this. So the thing I do

108
00:06:14.930 --> 00:06:15.760
like it better

109
00:06:15.760 --> 00:06:21.140
than the swing guy. I've mentioned for the problem with the swing guy is it

110
00:06:21.140 --> 00:06:22.480
really emphasizes

111
00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:26.800
the radial deviation and it emphasizes rehinging on the second side or on the

112
00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:27.800
follow through

113
00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:33.590
side. It can help for not bending the arms because typically when you bend the

114
00:06:33.590 --> 00:06:34.120
arm in

115
00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:39.650
the follow through it would be hard to also get the swing guy up against the

116
00:06:39.650 --> 00:06:40.880
forearm. But

117
00:06:40.880 --> 00:06:45.320
typically what I see is golfers who practice a lot with that end up getting

118
00:06:45.320 --> 00:06:46.160
more of kind

119
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:50.850
of an arm dominant pull in transition. So not a huge fan but the power package

120
00:06:50.850 --> 00:06:51.640
emphasizes

121
00:06:51.640 --> 00:06:57.140
a little bit more of the trail risk getting that extension. So I like it a

122
00:06:57.140 --> 00:06:57.680
little bit

123
00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:04.920
better but it does. I don't think it teaches the right arm rotation quite as

124
00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:05.920
well as it

125
00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:10.750
needs to. So it's more of kind of a transition and setting in top of the swing

126
00:07:10.750 --> 00:07:11.600
trainer for

127
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:17.040
me than really a dynamic downswing trainer. But it's better than the swing guy.

128
00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:17.320
So if

129
00:07:17.320 --> 00:07:22.070
you're looking to improve your extension of the wrist it's not a bad training

130
00:07:22.070 --> 00:07:22.480
aid for

131
00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:30.130
working at home. Okay. Guy or Guy, I'm not sure what part of the world he's in,

132
00:07:30.130 --> 00:07:30.920
he asked

133
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:37.890
about the lead knee motion. So the lead knee motion in transition basically

134
00:07:37.890 --> 00:07:40.280
internal external

135
00:07:40.280 --> 00:07:44.390
trying to get looking at where the knee is happening. So I'm going to lower the

136
00:07:44.390 --> 00:07:44.880
camera

137
00:07:44.880 --> 00:07:52.440
so we can kind of see what's going on here. So here's one of the tricky things.

138
00:07:52.440 --> 00:07:52.440
What

139
00:07:52.440 --> 00:07:58.340
the question relates to is in the transition of basically okay if the knee

140
00:07:58.340 --> 00:07:59.480
stays in like

141
00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:05.100
this and I shift that's commonly referred to as internal rotation of the hip.

142
00:08:05.100 --> 00:08:06.240
And then

143
00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:10.640
if I get to the top of the swing and as I'm shifting that knee goes out that's

144
00:08:10.640 --> 00:08:11.400
typically

145
00:08:11.400 --> 00:08:15.230
referred to as external rotation of the hip or sometimes it's referred to as

146
00:08:15.230 --> 00:08:15.800
external

147
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:21.200
rotation in the knee. By the book like the true knee rotation would actually

148
00:08:21.200 --> 00:08:21.800
happen more

149
00:08:21.800 --> 00:08:26.440
at the ankle like this. So when I turn that foot in that's the tibia rotating

150
00:08:26.440 --> 00:08:27.080
in and when

151
00:08:27.080 --> 00:08:30.790
I turn the foot out that's the tibia rotating out. So that's the true internal

152
00:08:30.790 --> 00:08:31.640
external rotation

153
00:08:31.640 --> 00:08:37.630
of the foot. So if I did external rotate or sorry of the knee if I did external

154
00:08:37.630 --> 00:08:38.480
rotation

155
00:08:38.480 --> 00:08:43.310
of the knee that's the same thing as the knee pointing in. So actually going

156
00:08:43.310 --> 00:08:44.360
that way would

157
00:08:44.360 --> 00:08:48.520
have more external rotation of the knee where if I go more out like this that

158
00:08:48.520 --> 00:08:49.520
would actually

159
00:08:49.520 --> 00:08:56.410
be more internal rotation of the knee. So the hard thing is the description

160
00:08:56.410 --> 00:08:57.320
that is most

161
00:08:57.320 --> 00:09:03.490
common doesn't really match the anatomical relationship. So the real question

162
00:09:03.490 --> 00:09:04.000
is do I

163
00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:11.460
want to have that knee stay put as I shift or should it work towards the target

164
00:09:11.460 --> 00:09:12.200
. I'll

165
00:09:12.200 --> 00:09:17.610
still be going into internal rotation. It's not a big difference as far as what

166
00:09:17.610 --> 00:09:18.600
's happening

167
00:09:18.600 --> 00:09:23.560
here at the hip as in. If I go this way I'm going into internal rotation if I

168
00:09:23.560 --> 00:09:24.120
go that

169
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:29.020
way it's going into internal rotation. The big difference is typically what's

170
00:09:29.020 --> 00:09:29.600
happening

171
00:09:29.600 --> 00:09:34.450
with the trail leg and what's happening with the upper body. Ideally yes it's

172
00:09:34.450 --> 00:09:35.080
going to

173
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:39.080
have a little bit more of a look of following. You don't want to have that look

174
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:39.720
of the knee

175
00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:45.230
coming in. That's typically from a little bit too much upper body lunge or from

176
00:09:45.230 --> 00:09:45.680
going

177
00:09:45.680 --> 00:09:53.000
into that foot mechanic of spinning the heel as opposed to banking that foot.

178
00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:55.000
So I think

179
00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:59.930
the look he's going for and describing is correct but the word of internal

180
00:09:59.930 --> 00:10:00.680
external

181
00:10:00.680 --> 00:10:09.630
rotation unfortunately isn't quite accurate. Okay and then his last, his follow

182
00:10:09.630 --> 00:10:09.960
up question

183
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:16.260
was kind of what does that play in rotation. As I demonstrated it's more of a

184
00:10:16.260 --> 00:10:19.320
sign of where

185
00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:24.220
the rotation is coming from. Here's how I look at it. So you want to take the

186
00:10:24.220 --> 00:10:24.720
big picture

187
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:29.610
of what's the general movement and the general movement in the can be broken

188
00:10:29.610 --> 00:10:31.040
down into torsion.

189
00:10:31.040 --> 00:10:36.320
So in the there's two different types of torsion. I would have positive torsion

190
00:10:36.320 --> 00:10:36.840
which

191
00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:42.240
is when let's say it's to the left it would be flexing forward in rotating or

192
00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:43.080
negative

193
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:50.430
torsion. So I would be extending and rotating. Those are a combination of

194
00:10:50.430 --> 00:10:52.480
movements but blend

195
00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:58.020
into one. So it's called torsion. In the backswing we tend to have negative t

196
00:10:58.020 --> 00:10:59.080
orsion and then

197
00:10:59.080 --> 00:11:02.130
in the downswing we're going to have positive torsion and then during the

198
00:11:02.130 --> 00:11:02.800
release we're

199
00:11:02.800 --> 00:11:07.760
going back into negative torsion and when you look at it more from that

200
00:11:07.760 --> 00:11:09.040
perspective of

201
00:11:09.040 --> 00:11:13.900
the global picture of what's happening at the spine then what's happening at

202
00:11:13.900 --> 00:11:15.080
the legs

203
00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:20.890
should match what you're trying to do with the spine. So it's not just that if

204
00:11:20.890 --> 00:11:21.360
you get

205
00:11:21.360 --> 00:11:26.570
the proper knee action it will work perfectly. The key is making sure that the

206
00:11:26.570 --> 00:11:27.200
foot, the

207
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:34.530
knee, the hip are all related to what the spine is doing. Alright I want to get

208
00:11:34.530 --> 00:11:34.680
through

209
00:11:34.680 --> 00:11:42.760
as many of these as I can. Bob asked a tricky question. He asked what muscle

210
00:11:42.760 --> 00:11:44.400
groups initiate

211
00:11:44.400 --> 00:11:49.610
the key movement. So what muscle groups initiate arm shallowing, the Jackson 5

212
00:11:49.610 --> 00:11:50.920
and the motorcycle.

213
00:11:50.920 --> 00:11:59.010
So here's where unfortunately my brain would go. Yes Mike, thanks for tuning in

214
00:11:59.010 --> 00:12:00.720
from Sweden.

215
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:05.350
There's your shout out. I appreciate you. Okay back to Bob's question. What

216
00:12:05.350 --> 00:12:05.800
initiates

217
00:12:05.800 --> 00:12:12.390
the arm shallowing? What initiates the Jackson 5? The trick is going to be what

218
00:12:12.390 --> 00:12:13.960
are we feeling

219
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:20.530
what is actually triggering it? And where does the motion take place? So like

220
00:12:20.530 --> 00:12:21.280
let's take

221
00:12:21.280 --> 00:12:26.810
for example if I were doing a bicep curl, right? So if I was doing a bicep curl

222
00:12:26.810 --> 00:12:27.320
and you

223
00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:33.490
had sensors or if you had EMG measuring parts in my body the first thing you

224
00:12:33.490 --> 00:12:34.760
would see would

225
00:12:34.760 --> 00:12:39.130
be an impulse in my foot. Actually you would see my core and then you would see

226
00:12:39.130 --> 00:12:39.680
my foot

227
00:12:39.680 --> 00:12:43.030
and then you would see all the support up until the bicep. Then I would have a

228
00:12:43.030 --> 00:12:43.760
high activity

229
00:12:43.760 --> 00:12:49.170
of the bicep. So you'd say that this motion was a bicep activity but it started

230
00:12:49.170 --> 00:12:49.600
all the

231
00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:53.870
way down at the feet or in the core depending on how you're looking at it. So

232
00:12:53.870 --> 00:12:54.920
when we get

233
00:12:54.920 --> 00:12:59.540
to the big movements like the arm shallowing the Jackson 5 and the motorcycle

234
00:12:59.540 --> 00:13:00.520
what initiates

235
00:13:00.520 --> 00:13:04.270
the movement may not be where you're ultimately going to feel it. I know that's

236
00:13:04.270 --> 00:13:05.040
a little bit

237
00:13:05.040 --> 00:13:12.870
pretty. So for example the arm shallow is really initiated more by the foot and

238
00:13:12.870 --> 00:13:14.720
the core and

239
00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:20.780
the rib cage rotation and having a little bit of reduced grip pressure

240
00:13:20.780 --> 00:13:22.080
especially in

241
00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:28.980
the trail forearm. So many amateurs tend to really squeeze and pull down with

242
00:13:28.980 --> 00:13:30.040
the forearm

243
00:13:30.040 --> 00:13:35.480
as opposed to letting that forearm be soft and letting the speed come more from

244
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:36.060
my body

245
00:13:36.060 --> 00:13:40.940
pulling on it and that body pull is initiating more at the feet because you

246
00:13:40.940 --> 00:13:42.160
need a fixed point

247
00:13:42.160 --> 00:13:48.570
in order to create force in a forcible way. So the arm shallow is initiated

248
00:13:48.570 --> 00:13:49.280
from the lower

249
00:13:49.280 --> 00:13:56.470
body or the core but you can feel it if you're actively doing it either in the

250
00:13:56.470 --> 00:13:57.840
lead forearm

251
00:13:57.840 --> 00:14:02.320
or in the trail shoulder you may even feel it more as a flexion kind of

252
00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:03.280
combination

253
00:14:03.280 --> 00:14:13.170
of the motorcycle movement. But that's again where you feel it and where the

254
00:14:13.170 --> 00:14:14.600
movement is

255
00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:19.080
actually originating might not be the same thing. So that's the arm shallow.

256
00:14:19.080 --> 00:14:20.160
The motorcycle

257
00:14:20.160 --> 00:14:29.080
his question was if when or sorry so with the motorcycle his question was is it

258
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:29.600
more of

259
00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:34.290
an arm pull or core rotation on the way through. So basically here we'll switch

260
00:14:34.290 --> 00:14:34.880
legs so that

261
00:14:34.880 --> 00:14:40.650
I can rotate that way easier. So if I'm going on the way through the question

262
00:14:40.650 --> 00:14:41.840
was basically

263
00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:47.670
is it an arm pull in order to keep that rotation of the wrist or is it more a

264
00:14:47.670 --> 00:14:48.840
body pull and

265
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:55.820
the arm just kind of rotates but follows the body pull. You know guys who

266
00:14:55.820 --> 00:14:56.480
showed with you

267
00:14:56.480 --> 00:15:02.760
can do either so whether it's more of like a Phil Mickelson upper body dominant

268
00:15:02.760 --> 00:15:03.320
style

269
00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:08.280
where the arms are pulling it into position or more of like a Ben Hogan style

270
00:15:08.280 --> 00:15:08.960
where the

271
00:15:08.960 --> 00:15:13.530
body is pulling through. You can do either but the more repeatable pattern is

272
00:15:13.530 --> 00:15:14.040
the body

273
00:15:14.040 --> 00:15:19.980
pulls through and the arm just kind of stays a little bit softer in order to

274
00:15:19.980 --> 00:15:20.860
control the

275
00:15:20.860 --> 00:15:27.960
movement as opposed to really driving a powerful arm activity.

276
00:15:27.960 --> 00:15:32.250
Then the last one was about the Jackson 5. So I already talked to it's a little

277
00:15:32.250 --> 00:15:32.800
bit more

278
00:15:32.800 --> 00:15:44.300
going from the feet rather than from the hips. The key is that the foot and the

279
00:15:44.300 --> 00:15:45.680
hip and the

280
00:15:45.680 --> 00:15:51.940
spine kind of all work together in that side tilt Jackson 5 pattern. So I'm a

281
00:15:51.940 --> 00:15:53.080
big fan of

282
00:15:53.080 --> 00:15:58.840
using the feet properly to help get the hips and core working properly as well

283
00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:00.480
as long as

284
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:04.800
the arms in the club are in a position where you can take advantage of it.

285
00:16:04.800 --> 00:16:08.530
So we'll take a quick break from the emails and we'll answer some of the

286
00:16:08.530 --> 00:16:09.640
questions because

287
00:16:09.640 --> 00:16:17.240
I see them starting to really pour in. Okay so first question was from William

288
00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:18.360
how to prevent

289
00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:23.980
early extension when performing the Jackson 5. The key thing there is when you

290
00:16:23.980 --> 00:16:24.880
are doing

291
00:16:24.880 --> 00:16:32.390
the Jackson 5 to make sure that it's going in the slightly left of the target

292
00:16:32.390 --> 00:16:33.120
not in

293
00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:37.080
the direction of the hips. So when I teach the Jackson 5 it's a lateral

294
00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:37.560
movement like

295
00:16:37.560 --> 00:16:41.040
this but then when I go to the top of the swing a lot of golfers still go

296
00:16:41.040 --> 00:16:41.840
lateral with

297
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:47.770
the direction of the pelvis and they start going that way. So what you have to

298
00:16:47.770 --> 00:16:48.440
feel is

299
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:53.310
that it's actually going a little bit more backwards. So if I was doing let's

300
00:16:53.310 --> 00:16:53.880
say a better

301
00:16:53.880 --> 00:16:59.650
version or a more swing and a related version of the Jackson 5 it would

302
00:16:59.650 --> 00:17:01.160
actually be more

303
00:17:01.160 --> 00:17:07.030
like I was going like this where the hips were going back 45 instead of purely

304
00:17:07.030 --> 00:17:07.560
at the

305
00:17:07.560 --> 00:17:13.650
target. That helps my body flex forward which is part of that positive torsion

306
00:17:13.650 --> 00:17:14.680
pattern.

307
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:18.740
So that's the other piece is making sure that you're using your abs with that

308
00:17:18.740 --> 00:17:20.160
Jackson 5

309
00:17:20.160 --> 00:17:25.660
and not just using too much of your back in order to move your hips. You had a

310
00:17:25.660 --> 00:17:25.880
second

311
00:17:25.880 --> 00:17:30.380
question he got here first so he gets two questions answered. Ideally when does

312
00:17:30.380 --> 00:17:31.440
the club

313
00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:36.000
catch up with the hands after impact both for driver and six iron. For driver I

314
00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:36.200
use

315
00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:42.450
the reference of about chef parallel is where you know the guys like Jordan

316
00:17:42.450 --> 00:17:43.560
speed or Joe

317
00:17:43.560 --> 00:17:50.400
Durant or Jim Furyk or Henrik Stenson like guys who tend to be have really good

318
00:17:50.400 --> 00:17:51.000
ball

319
00:17:51.000 --> 00:17:57.560
striking statistics. The club will catch up with them a little bit later here.

320
00:17:57.560 --> 00:17:57.720
With an

321
00:17:57.720 --> 00:18:04.300
iron it's probably closer to about chef 45. Alright Craig working on the

322
00:18:04.300 --> 00:18:05.240
motorcycle move

323
00:18:05.240 --> 00:18:09.470
but still can't get my hands forward enough. Do I need more motorcycle or could

324
00:18:09.470 --> 00:18:10.200
it be something

325
00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:18.760
else. Definitely could be something else. Motorcycle movement is solves two

326
00:18:18.760 --> 00:18:20.000
problems motorcycle

327
00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:25.890
movement let's get a little bit better in frame. So motorcycle movement solves

328
00:18:25.890 --> 00:18:26.560
the slice

329
00:18:26.560 --> 00:18:33.490
and it solves shaft lean because when I flex that lead wrist or twist the club

330
00:18:33.490 --> 00:18:34.600
if I didn't

331
00:18:34.600 --> 00:18:37.710
get my hands ahead the club face will be pointed really close so I'm going to

332
00:18:37.710 --> 00:18:38.320
hit massive

333
00:18:38.320 --> 00:18:43.040
pulls so it's a key component to getting the hands ahead and it squares the

334
00:18:43.040 --> 00:18:43.960
face to the

335
00:18:43.960 --> 00:18:51.720
path relationship which prevents the slice. That being said if your arm timing

336
00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:55.160
is if your

337
00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:59.970
arm timing is more going into kind of this under flip pattern where that right

338
00:18:59.970 --> 00:19:00.600
arm stays

339
00:19:00.600 --> 00:19:04.810
behind your body and the palm stays facing kind of more towards you instead of

340
00:19:04.810 --> 00:19:05.280
facing

341
00:19:05.280 --> 00:19:11.200
more away that will move the bottom the swing backward. It's very hard to do

342
00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:12.160
that and keep

343
00:19:12.160 --> 00:19:16.700
the motorcycle but it is possible because I could very easily keep that left

344
00:19:16.700 --> 00:19:17.880
wrist flat

345
00:19:17.880 --> 00:19:23.230
and release the right arm a little bit earlier so you'll start to see the club

346
00:19:23.230 --> 00:19:24.000
coming up

347
00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:30.520
through impact. So I do a lot of trail arm training got a couple new drills

348
00:19:30.520 --> 00:19:31.320
that I'll

349
00:19:31.320 --> 00:19:34.730
be filming tomorrow that have been working pretty well but things like the

350
00:19:34.730 --> 00:19:35.280
single arm

351
00:19:35.280 --> 00:19:40.810
drills throws the disc catcher all seem to help train that right arm getting

352
00:19:40.810 --> 00:19:41.440
more in

353
00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:48.040
front which helps support the motorcycle of the lead wrist. Okay Nick asked

354
00:19:48.040 --> 00:19:48.280
what would

355
00:19:48.280 --> 00:19:52.270
you suggest for across the line and slightly open at the top the current

356
00:19:52.270 --> 00:19:53.400
transition pulls

357
00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:58.770
down the club opens the face a bit more fixed backswing or transition. I would

358
00:19:58.770 --> 00:20:00.800
tend to try

359
00:20:00.800 --> 00:20:06.240
both and see which works for you. What typically happens is some golfers their

360
00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:07.200
brain interprets

361
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:13.260
transition later than it actually is on video. What I mean by that is I'll back

362
00:20:13.260 --> 00:20:13.880
up enough

363
00:20:13.880 --> 00:20:20.020
so that we've got plenty of room here. So what many golfers do is when they

364
00:20:20.020 --> 00:20:20.800
start doing

365
00:20:20.800 --> 00:20:26.670
a transition move it actually happens right around here. So what that means is

366
00:20:26.670 --> 00:20:27.040
all of

367
00:20:27.040 --> 00:20:31.210
this is kind of like a blind spot like their brain isn't really aware of what's

368
00:20:31.210 --> 00:20:31.600
going

369
00:20:31.600 --> 00:20:37.720
on at that point. So what I frequently have to do is train more trying to

370
00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:38.520
motorcycle

371
00:20:38.520 --> 00:20:44.020
to end the top of the backswing instead of starting the downswing. The other

372
00:20:44.020 --> 00:20:44.480
thing would

373
00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:50.030
be looking at the direction that you're pushing on the club. So whether you're

374
00:20:50.030 --> 00:20:50.880
pulling more

375
00:20:50.880 --> 00:20:57.790
down or whether you have a feeling of almost pushing more up that can have a I

376
00:20:57.790 --> 00:20:58.560
've got

377
00:20:58.560 --> 00:21:03.070
a video coming out probably next week not this week but the following week that

378
00:21:03.070 --> 00:21:03.600
relates

379
00:21:03.600 --> 00:21:09.590
to how the hands push on the club and how it relates to arm shallowing. I've

380
00:21:09.590 --> 00:21:10.160
had some

381
00:21:10.160 --> 00:21:17.400
good success with some kind of mid lower handicap golfers with that feel. One

382
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:17.960
more and then

383
00:21:17.960 --> 00:21:24.910
we'll jump back to the the emails. All right what type of backswing would you

384
00:21:24.910 --> 00:21:25.400
recommend

385
00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:30.620
if the autonomic core system of lateral head of the bicep is injured since a

386
00:21:30.620 --> 00:21:31.480
couple months

387
00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:41.200
ago the 13 handicap. So lateral head of the bicep it's like is it more though

388
00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:42.000
is it the

389
00:21:42.000 --> 00:21:46.030
left arm bicep or is it the right arm bicep. I'll come back to your question

390
00:21:46.030 --> 00:21:46.640
but I need

391
00:21:46.640 --> 00:21:51.810
a little bit more information. Okay so let me jump into some more of the email

392
00:21:51.810 --> 00:21:52.280
questions

393
00:21:52.280 --> 00:21:58.110
and then we'll get to some of these questions pouring in online. All right so

394
00:21:58.110 --> 00:21:59.120
Adam, Adam

395
00:21:59.120 --> 00:22:06.340
asked if we were doing slow motion sequence positions what would kind of the

396
00:22:06.340 --> 00:22:07.240
tempo be.

397
00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:11.750
So basically like if we had position one is the takeaway two as the start of

398
00:22:11.750 --> 00:22:12.560
transition

399
00:22:12.560 --> 00:22:17.140
three end of transition beginning of release for end of the release with the

400
00:22:17.140 --> 00:22:17.880
tempo beat

401
00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:23.750
even. Typically most of the all the research will show that the downswing is

402
00:22:23.750 --> 00:22:24.920
about a third

403
00:22:24.920 --> 00:22:32.840
of the backswing. So it has kind of a little bit more of a one two versus a one

404
00:22:32.840 --> 00:22:33.960
two where

405
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:37.950
it's more the same tempo would be more like wedge shots or is you're getting

406
00:22:37.950 --> 00:22:38.720
into putting

407
00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:46.450
but it tends to be much faster on the downswing. So if you're training tempo

408
00:22:46.450 --> 00:22:48.360
and rhythm I would

409
00:22:48.360 --> 00:22:55.510
tend to say if you're counting it out you would want a little bit like one

410
00:22:55.510 --> 00:22:57.080
thousand one

411
00:22:57.080 --> 00:23:01.710
two is something that I've used for golfers in the past instead of trying to

412
00:23:01.710 --> 00:23:03.040
count differently

413
00:23:03.040 --> 00:23:06.930
just take a word that is going to take a lot longer to say or about three times

414
00:23:06.930 --> 00:23:07.400
longer

415
00:23:07.400 --> 00:23:13.560
to say. So I would do that one that one piece takeaway as position one one

416
00:23:13.560 --> 00:23:14.640
thousand one

417
00:23:14.640 --> 00:23:20.770
two and that would kind of get me all the way through there. Now it's really

418
00:23:20.770 --> 00:23:21.360
hard if

419
00:23:21.360 --> 00:23:30.280
you're doing it in sequence to to break up the transition and the release. But

420
00:23:30.280 --> 00:23:30.440
if you're

421
00:23:30.440 --> 00:23:37.760
doing it in more of the actual phase I would recommend doing it at half speed.

422
00:23:37.760 --> 00:23:38.080
So you might

423
00:23:38.080 --> 00:23:44.680
have to say it twice so let's go one thousand one one thousand one one two. So

424
00:23:44.680 --> 00:23:45.160
you go one

425
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:50.250
thousand one one thousand one one two. And that would be slow motion training

426
00:23:50.250 --> 00:23:50.800
of more

427
00:23:50.800 --> 00:23:55.280
of the release and the follow through with a little bit of a tempo component to

428
00:23:55.280 --> 00:23:55.640
it but

429
00:23:55.640 --> 00:24:00.640
the downswing tempo is usually about three times faster than the backswing.

430
00:24:00.640 --> 00:24:01.360
Okay Fred

431
00:24:01.360 --> 00:24:06.790
had a bunch of questions so we'll get through some of his. First one he was

432
00:24:06.790 --> 00:24:07.240
asking about

433
00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:11.870
the orange whip wedge he just got it and he asked how do you practice it can

434
00:24:11.870 --> 00:24:12.360
you use

435
00:24:12.360 --> 00:24:16.440
it for distance wedges as well as finesse. I'm definitely a bigger fan of using

436
00:24:16.440 --> 00:24:16.840
it for

437
00:24:16.840 --> 00:24:22.490
finesse and the way I like to use it I know a couple coaches that use it polar

438
00:24:22.490 --> 00:24:23.440
opposites

439
00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:29.160
but the way I like to use it is having my students try to make the swing where

440
00:24:29.160 --> 00:24:30.560
the wedge does

441
00:24:30.560 --> 00:24:38.850
not move so there's basically no downswing loading. I know of a coach who's

442
00:24:38.850 --> 00:24:39.640
really good

443
00:24:39.640 --> 00:24:44.970
at getting more of the speed out into the handle but the real benefit and what

444
00:24:44.970 --> 00:24:45.480
I like

445
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:52.000
about that orange whip wedge is making sure that I'm not getting any loading of

446
00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:52.840
the shaft

447
00:24:52.840 --> 00:25:00.080
in transition so feeling really almost castee and like the arms dropping and

448
00:25:00.080 --> 00:25:01.200
the weight

449
00:25:01.200 --> 00:25:04.620
of the club head is starting the downswing. We know that that's not really the

450
00:25:04.620 --> 00:25:05.000
case there's

451
00:25:05.000 --> 00:25:09.830
definitely some lower body movement but it's a feeling of more the weight out

452
00:25:09.830 --> 00:25:10.600
of the club

453
00:25:10.600 --> 00:25:17.790
and when you use the wedge it won't bend and flex very much. Second I don't

454
00:25:17.790 --> 00:25:18.680
like it as

455
00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:22.830
well for distance wedges maybe up to about 50 yards but when you start getting

456
00:25:22.830 --> 00:25:24.800
past there

457
00:25:24.800 --> 00:25:30.680
if you do have any amount of motorcycle and shaft lean it'll tend or motorcycle

458
00:25:30.680 --> 00:25:31.200
and more

459
00:25:31.200 --> 00:25:35.410
of a power sequence it does tend to hit the ball off to the right so I like it

460
00:25:35.410 --> 00:25:36.040
a lot more

461
00:25:36.040 --> 00:25:43.840
for around the greens but I know that we're having stand out late here sometime

462
00:25:43.840 --> 00:25:44.760
this spring

463
00:25:44.760 --> 00:25:48.490
so I'll pick his brain about how he uses it for distance wedges because he's

464
00:25:48.490 --> 00:25:49.000
the he's

465
00:25:49.000 --> 00:25:56.640
the king of that training tool. Okay his second question do I prefer low flight

466
00:25:56.640 --> 00:25:57.480
ed wedges with

467
00:25:57.480 --> 00:26:03.450
no divot? So there's two parts to this question. I do prefer low flighted wed

468
00:26:03.450 --> 00:26:05.280
ges the tour average

469
00:26:05.280 --> 00:26:10.960
you know being somewhere around 30 degrees of launch angle when I watch the

470
00:26:10.960 --> 00:26:11.800
guys close

471
00:26:11.800 --> 00:26:16.980
up you don't really see anyone deviating from that pattern. Now the key there

472
00:26:16.980 --> 00:26:17.800
or the second

473
00:26:17.800 --> 00:26:21.950
part of the question was where you take no divot that is entirely grass

474
00:26:21.950 --> 00:26:22.960
dependent. I've

475
00:26:22.960 --> 00:26:29.140
seen different events where they're taking fairly significant divots and other

476
00:26:29.140 --> 00:26:29.760
events

477
00:26:29.760 --> 00:26:38.100
where the grass is barely moved so it really depends on the saturation the root

478
00:26:38.100 --> 00:26:39.360
structure.

479
00:26:39.360 --> 00:26:47.440
I like to get a certain baseline at your home course but the key there is wed

480
00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:48.600
ges are steep

481
00:26:48.600 --> 00:26:54.000
but they have a low point that's relatively close to the ground so it's steep

482
00:26:54.000 --> 00:26:54.680
and it has

483
00:26:54.680 --> 00:27:00.440
a fair amount of overtaking or the club passing on the way through compared to

484
00:27:00.440 --> 00:27:01.360
the full swing

485
00:27:01.360 --> 00:27:07.080
and that's part of how you can be steep and not really gouge the ground but the

486
00:27:07.080 --> 00:27:07.840
size of

487
00:27:07.840 --> 00:27:15.970
the divot is going to depend a fair amount on the third conditions. He asked

488
00:27:15.970 --> 00:27:16.480
let's see

489
00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:21.540
you one more thread and then we'll jump back. Where is my main power source so

490
00:27:21.540 --> 00:27:22.040
how can I

491
00:27:22.040 --> 00:27:26.700
tell in the book I talk about one of the areas you know being or one way being

492
00:27:26.700 --> 00:27:27.320
where are

493
00:27:27.320 --> 00:27:33.840
you sore. I just did a video this past week where I showed kind of one where I

494
00:27:33.840 --> 00:27:34.560
showed

495
00:27:34.560 --> 00:27:40.860
the one of the key differences in the different power sources. First I categor

496
00:27:40.860 --> 00:27:41.920
ize a more lower

497
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:49.360
body core or we more upper body and that can be determined by what's going on

498
00:27:49.360 --> 00:27:50.200
in here.

499
00:27:50.200 --> 00:27:54.590
Once you've figured out whether your upper body or more core lower body it gets

500
00:27:54.590 --> 00:27:55.160
a little

501
00:27:55.160 --> 00:28:02.480
bit trickier to try and identify exactly whether you're doing it more from the

502
00:28:02.480 --> 00:28:03.120
right

503
00:28:03.120 --> 00:28:07.270
side or more from the left side or right arm or left arm and that's where I

504
00:28:07.270 --> 00:28:08.320
would go to

505
00:28:08.320 --> 00:28:12.380
more of the soreness but he mentioned that he feels it more in his lower back

506
00:28:12.380 --> 00:28:12.920
and that

507
00:28:12.920 --> 00:28:20.820
could be more of a transition or more of an impact kind of compensation as

508
00:28:20.820 --> 00:28:21.920
opposed to

509
00:28:21.920 --> 00:28:28.860
more of a creating speed creating power phenomena. So I would start with that

510
00:28:28.860 --> 00:28:29.360
kind

511
00:28:29.360 --> 00:28:34.420
of corner zone but basically the blend of transition to release will reveal a

512
00:28:34.420 --> 00:28:34.920
lot and

513
00:28:34.920 --> 00:28:41.700
then you you can do strategies like if you're more upper body dominant and you

514
00:28:41.700 --> 00:28:42.600
did more

515
00:28:42.600 --> 00:28:46.810
of a lead arm only or a trail arm only which one feels the most similar that

516
00:28:46.810 --> 00:28:47.440
will give

517
00:28:47.440 --> 00:28:51.480
you an idea as far as right first left. If you exaggerated more weight forward

518
00:28:51.480 --> 00:28:51.640
weight

519
00:28:51.640 --> 00:28:56.990
back you could break down the lower body a little bit that way but it's more of

520
00:28:56.990 --> 00:28:57.440
an art

521
00:28:57.440 --> 00:29:01.740
than a true science to figure out your exact power sources that way. Actually

522
00:29:01.740 --> 00:29:02.040
we'll do

523
00:29:02.040 --> 00:29:05.640
one more because he has a real quick one. How is lifting a power source? So I

524
00:29:05.640 --> 00:29:06.360
talk about

525
00:29:06.360 --> 00:29:11.710
chopped verse lift or crunched verse extend while those different patterns. So

526
00:29:11.710 --> 00:29:12.320
lifting

527
00:29:12.320 --> 00:29:16.620
is a power source just the same way a chop would be. So imagine I have a

528
00:29:16.620 --> 00:29:17.600
medicine ball

529
00:29:17.600 --> 00:29:22.790
or a cable machine and I was going to pull a medicine ball or cable down that

530
00:29:22.790 --> 00:29:23.440
way. That

531
00:29:23.440 --> 00:29:28.370
would be creating force in that direction. Now imagine that I had a cable down

532
00:29:28.370 --> 00:29:28.800
there

533
00:29:28.800 --> 00:29:35.630
and now I was going to pull that cable or throw a ball a medicine ball up that

534
00:29:35.630 --> 00:29:36.200
way.

535
00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:41.180
That would be more of a lift pattern and that's what you'll tend to see with

536
00:29:41.180 --> 00:29:42.120
the with

537
00:29:42.120 --> 00:29:45.930
more of the tour swing. So with more of the driver in the long irons you'll

538
00:29:45.930 --> 00:29:46.240
tend to see

539
00:29:46.240 --> 00:29:50.660
more of a pattern where the energy in those arms are lifting up off the body

540
00:29:50.660 --> 00:29:51.920
which complements

541
00:29:51.920 --> 00:29:56.330
the body rotation on the way through and then more in the wedges and the short

542
00:29:56.330 --> 00:29:56.880
irons you'll

543
00:29:56.880 --> 00:30:02.380
see more of that chop pattern which complements more of a drifting less kind of

544
00:30:02.380 --> 00:30:03.360
bracing and

545
00:30:03.360 --> 00:30:09.950
powered generation from the from the corn body. Okay let's get back to some of

546
00:30:09.950 --> 00:30:10.720
these

547
00:30:10.720 --> 00:30:16.020
questions. Still didn't get which bicep from Mike so I got to move on. Golf

548
00:30:16.020 --> 00:30:17.240
Junkie asked

549
00:30:17.240 --> 00:30:21.530
are the Zora loops initiated from a closed upper body should it feel as if the

550
00:30:21.530 --> 00:30:22.200
forearms

551
00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:26.850
are rolling over. I understand that they are not but it might feel that they

552
00:30:26.850 --> 00:30:29.120
are. Yes the

553
00:30:29.120 --> 00:30:34.370
Zora loop is initiated basically at transition so your upper body is probably

554
00:30:34.370 --> 00:30:35.520
90 degrees

555
00:30:35.520 --> 00:30:42.530
closed at that point and what I like to what a lot of golfers describe the feel

556
00:30:42.530 --> 00:30:43.480
as is as

557
00:30:43.480 --> 00:30:49.010
those arms roll over they're also extending and most golfers feel it as more of

558
00:30:49.010 --> 00:30:50.760
this extension

559
00:30:50.760 --> 00:30:55.060
not so much of a rolling over. The danger of if it feels too much like rolling

560
00:30:55.060 --> 00:30:55.640
over is

561
00:30:55.640 --> 00:31:00.070
down at the bottom you can get kind of this steep look and the club going that

562
00:31:00.070 --> 00:31:01.560
way where

563
00:31:01.560 --> 00:31:06.050
if you have it more of the rotation where the club is going out the hands will

564
00:31:06.050 --> 00:31:06.720
work a little

565
00:31:06.720 --> 00:31:11.390
bit more left but the club will finish down the line and you'll finish with the

566
00:31:11.390 --> 00:31:11.880
club more

567
00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:18.960
in line with your forearms instead of that kind of quick flip look on the

568
00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:20.960
follow through.

569
00:31:20.960 --> 00:31:26.960
Jason asked release question one of my favorite topics good question for one

570
00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:28.360
who has mobility

571
00:31:28.360 --> 00:31:33.670
limitations and struggles to get into right lateral bend what other perhaps

572
00:31:33.670 --> 00:31:34.800
earlier shallowing

573
00:31:34.800 --> 00:31:41.410
movements are essentially keep the path from going too far left so if you there

574
00:31:41.410 --> 00:31:43.280
's a there's

575
00:31:43.280 --> 00:31:48.790
a later question to all kind of combo that one to one of Fred's he was asking

576
00:31:48.790 --> 00:31:49.560
about what

577
00:31:49.560 --> 00:31:54.660
do you do with older golfers because once you get over the age of about 60 you

578
00:31:54.660 --> 00:31:55.480
lose about

579
00:31:55.480 --> 00:32:00.640
two thirds of your right lateral bend so you won't see too many Justin Johnson

580
00:32:00.640 --> 00:32:01.280
's out on

581
00:32:01.280 --> 00:32:06.570
the senior tour it's just a phenomenon of what happens to the spine well I I

582
00:32:06.570 --> 00:32:08.760
coach I tell most

583
00:32:08.760 --> 00:32:12.700
of my senior golfers to do some stretching and try to get as much from the hips

584
00:32:12.700 --> 00:32:13.120
as you

585
00:32:13.120 --> 00:32:18.170
can because there's no real reason you need to lose a lot of the hip mobility

586
00:32:18.170 --> 00:32:18.960
if you can't

587
00:32:18.960 --> 00:32:24.710
do the spine but let's for argument sake say that we've lost that ability to

588
00:32:24.710 --> 00:32:25.400
really right

589
00:32:25.400 --> 00:32:30.060
lateral bend either from the hips or from the spot so now since this isn't

590
00:32:30.060 --> 00:32:30.920
going to get

591
00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:34.790
down towards the ground I'm going to have to use my arms a little bit earlier

592
00:32:34.790 --> 00:32:35.520
so straving

593
00:32:35.520 --> 00:32:42.350
the arms is a shallower and the the danger is that that will cause the low

594
00:32:42.350 --> 00:32:43.120
point to move

595
00:32:43.120 --> 00:32:49.130
backward unless I drift a little bit more forward so what I usually coach is if

596
00:32:49.130 --> 00:32:49.680
you're

597
00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:54.100
going to do more of an upper body cast pattern I focus a lot on upper body

598
00:32:54.100 --> 00:32:55.120
stability and

599
00:32:55.120 --> 00:33:00.630
I focus more on kind of the rhythm of when the arms extend instead of the

600
00:33:00.630 --> 00:33:02.320
absolute positions

601
00:33:02.320 --> 00:33:08.840
I also still focus and get a lot of success working on the motorcycle movement

602
00:33:08.840 --> 00:33:09.600
and it's

603
00:33:09.600 --> 00:33:16.120
more of a kind of getting those arms to extend out in front as opposed to less

604
00:33:16.120 --> 00:33:18.480
of that like

605
00:33:18.480 --> 00:33:22.790
body driven white movement it's more just the arm direction white movement you

606
00:33:22.790 --> 00:33:23.320
'll tend

607
00:33:23.320 --> 00:33:27.210
to have a little bit steeper angle of attack that way so for the longer clubs

608
00:33:27.210 --> 00:33:28.000
you may have

609
00:33:28.000 --> 00:33:34.990
to make some conversations potentially a little bit more loft playing a shorter

610
00:33:34.990 --> 00:33:35.480
club some

611
00:33:35.480 --> 00:33:41.690
setup changes but I typically what if you've lost lateral bend a cast pattern

612
00:33:41.690 --> 00:33:42.560
does help

613
00:33:42.560 --> 00:33:46.870
in terms of shallowing things out and making sure that you're not spinning too

614
00:33:46.870 --> 00:33:47.480
much from

615
00:33:47.480 --> 00:33:51.340
your upper body can help make sure it showers it out both of those would help

616
00:33:51.340 --> 00:33:51.960
prevent the

617
00:33:51.960 --> 00:33:59.520
path from getting too far left Jason also said the book is fantastic by the way

618
00:33:59.520 --> 00:33:59.600
thank

619
00:33:59.600 --> 00:34:04.420
you very much I really appreciate the feedback some of it's been a little

620
00:34:04.420 --> 00:34:05.480
overwhelming the

621
00:34:05.480 --> 00:34:10.140
way you empower the readers to deco the pattern and the stuffs on steep and

622
00:34:10.140 --> 00:34:11.320
shallows is gold

623
00:34:11.320 --> 00:34:16.450
well thank you very much I you know I had a lesson this week and the gentleman

624
00:34:16.450 --> 00:34:18.000
said that

625
00:34:18.000 --> 00:34:24.300
you know he doesn't hit every shot perfectly but it's fun because he's at least

626
00:34:24.300 --> 00:34:25.120
able to

627
00:34:25.120 --> 00:34:29.560
move the needle as he described it or basically he can kind of self correct if

628
00:34:29.560 --> 00:34:30.400
he starts having

629
00:34:30.400 --> 00:34:37.900
some problems so that's the that's what I think is the ultimate goal right no

630
00:34:37.900 --> 00:34:38.520
one ever

631
00:34:38.520 --> 00:34:44.280
has their swing perfect forever the goal is that you learn the tools to be able

632
00:34:44.280 --> 00:34:44.960
to course

633
00:34:44.960 --> 00:34:49.060
correct and self-correct when it gets off because I promise if you think you

634
00:34:49.060 --> 00:34:51.280
have it today by next

635
00:34:51.280 --> 00:34:55.380
week something will have crept in and you better have the strategy to be able

636
00:34:55.380 --> 00:34:58.240
to handle it Patrick

637
00:34:58.240 --> 00:35:03.870
asked can you explain how to shallow the arms while the hand path works down

638
00:35:03.870 --> 00:35:05.200
mine tend to work

639
00:35:05.200 --> 00:35:14.630
out too much so typically working through this question so typically when the

640
00:35:14.630 --> 00:35:16.080
hands move out

641
00:35:16.080 --> 00:35:21.370
the club will shallow unless it goes more everything together so let's say that

642
00:35:21.370 --> 00:35:23.120
my interpretation of

643
00:35:23.120 --> 00:35:26.090
the question is that everything is going out together so the club's not shall

644
00:35:26.090 --> 00:35:27.200
owing what's typically

645
00:35:27.200 --> 00:35:32.710
happening there is that more of the that transition move is happening more from

646
00:35:32.710 --> 00:35:34.400
that left shoulder

647
00:35:34.400 --> 00:35:41.730
kind of spinning as opposed to a feeling getting more of a little bit of

648
00:35:41.730 --> 00:35:44.400
stretch so if I if I face

649
00:35:44.400 --> 00:35:48.790
this way what you'll see is as my lower body starts can you see how that

650
00:35:48.790 --> 00:35:50.160
shoulder blade gets

651
00:35:50.160 --> 00:35:56.420
stretched a bit so the shoulder is not following the rib cage movement for the

652
00:35:56.420 --> 00:35:58.080
initial portion of

653
00:35:58.080 --> 00:36:04.630
the downswing allowing the arms to have some softness and let them kind of

654
00:36:04.630 --> 00:36:05.840
shallow a bit

655
00:36:05.840 --> 00:36:10.820
a bit because again typically when the hands work out if it's purely from the

656
00:36:10.820 --> 00:36:11.920
arms perspective

657
00:36:11.920 --> 00:36:16.460
that's the force that causes it to shallow but if the hands work out because of

658
00:36:16.460 --> 00:36:17.280
the body or the

659
00:36:17.280 --> 00:36:22.680
left shoulder kind of pulling back that will cause it to steepen okay let's get

660
00:36:22.680 --> 00:36:24.480
back to a few of these

661
00:36:25.440 --> 00:36:33.680
email questions so Fred asked if the kinematic sequence isn't the only way what

662
00:36:33.680 --> 00:36:34.400
other successful

663
00:36:34.400 --> 00:36:38.900
patterns do you see so in the last class he was asking about or in the last

664
00:36:38.900 --> 00:36:40.160
youtube live he was

665
00:36:40.160 --> 00:36:45.780
asking about what kinematic like what's the stock tour swing kinematic sequence

666
00:36:45.780 --> 00:36:47.440
pattern and

667
00:36:48.720 --> 00:36:54.480
I with the kinematic sequence you will typically see a very consistent

668
00:36:54.480 --> 00:36:55.680
transition sequence of

669
00:36:55.680 --> 00:37:02.960
pelvis um pelvis trunk arm club but when you start working at looking at the pe

670
00:37:02.960 --> 00:37:04.240
aking order

671
00:37:04.240 --> 00:37:10.000
you'll typically see the lower body go first but or peak first but not always

672
00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:10.560
sometimes it has

673
00:37:10.560 --> 00:37:16.560
more of a plateau sometimes it's later um it really depends on swing styles

674
00:37:16.560 --> 00:37:18.080
body capabilities release

675
00:37:18.080 --> 00:37:24.000
patterns whether you prioritize distance whether you prioritize accuracy so the

676
00:37:24.000 --> 00:37:24.880
transition I would

677
00:37:24.880 --> 00:37:29.570
say you know what what everybody said the kinematics sequence shows absolutely

678
00:37:29.570 --> 00:37:30.560
correct what everyone's

679
00:37:30.560 --> 00:37:35.280
talked from the ground up all that stuff is well and true if you're talking

680
00:37:35.280 --> 00:37:36.560
about the downswing

681
00:37:36.560 --> 00:37:42.240
peaking order I've just seen way too many examples of really good ball strikers

682
00:37:42.240 --> 00:37:43.360
like you know elite

683
00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:48.020
level toward ball strikers who don't have a perfect uh one two three four kinem

684
00:37:48.020 --> 00:37:49.440
atic sequence oftentimes

685
00:37:49.440 --> 00:37:55.200
it's one three two four uh but there are some really good ball strikers who

686
00:37:55.200 --> 00:37:56.160
where it's more

687
00:37:56.160 --> 00:38:04.160
stacked up and the time delay between one two three are is almost nothing so um

688
00:38:04.160 --> 00:38:04.800
I would say

689
00:38:04.800 --> 00:38:11.790
if you're use the kinematic sequence and more as a reference for guiding what

690
00:38:11.790 --> 00:38:12.720
you want to work on

691
00:38:13.760 --> 00:38:19.050
in the gym like where the potential injury points are where the potential

692
00:38:19.050 --> 00:38:20.320
weaknesses or

693
00:38:20.320 --> 00:38:26.150
inhibitions are and then use that as more of a long-term focus of what to work

694
00:38:26.150 --> 00:38:27.280
on rehab wise

695
00:38:27.280 --> 00:38:32.410
strength wise as opposed to um the downswing peaking port order being an

696
00:38:32.410 --> 00:38:33.760
absolute guide of

697
00:38:33.760 --> 00:38:39.880
what it takes to be consistent uh so I um I kind of already answered his last

698
00:38:39.880 --> 00:38:42.000
question about golfers

699
00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:46.810
who can't left tilt during stiff uh due to stiffness but he did ask about what

700
00:38:46.810 --> 00:38:47.600
about early

701
00:38:47.600 --> 00:38:53.590
extension um I basically okay so if I can't left tilt or sorry if I can't right

702
00:38:53.590 --> 00:38:54.560
tilt then

703
00:38:54.560 --> 00:39:01.670
maybe I can early extend in order to create um some of the shallowness well um

704
00:39:01.670 --> 00:39:02.960
I'm not a big fan

705
00:39:02.960 --> 00:39:06.560
of coaching early extension at any level if you're going if you need to be

706
00:39:06.560 --> 00:39:07.680
taller to be shallower

707
00:39:07.680 --> 00:39:12.100
than I would recommend starting taller to begin with for my older golfers um I

708
00:39:12.100 --> 00:39:13.760
think that the

709
00:39:13.760 --> 00:39:21.440
bigger combination is getting more of a um cast pattern so getting that arm to

710
00:39:21.440 --> 00:39:21.920
straighten a

711
00:39:21.920 --> 00:39:26.480
little bit sooner and timing that with the right amount of lunge and the right

712
00:39:26.480 --> 00:39:27.840
amount of upper body

713
00:39:27.840 --> 00:39:32.800
position so I do a lot of upper body location training making sure that um they

714
00:39:32.800 --> 00:39:34.000
're pretty accurate

715
00:39:34.000 --> 00:39:38.680
with where that is and I do a lot of rhythm training and I still do a lot of

716
00:39:38.680 --> 00:39:40.240
the motorcycle training

717
00:39:40.240 --> 00:39:46.600
it's just a little bit more arm driven instead of um more body driven okay uh

718
00:39:46.600 --> 00:39:49.840
question from Joseph

719
00:39:49.840 --> 00:39:55.350
when uh he's working on the motorcycle he says when I kind of do it too quickly

720
00:39:55.350 --> 00:39:58.560
um and so basically

721
00:39:58.560 --> 00:40:03.680
what he's asking is when he's doing the motorcycle he he kind of does it really

722
00:40:03.680 --> 00:40:05.120
aggressively at the

723
00:40:05.120 --> 00:40:09.460
top and what ends up happening is it goes a little bit steep like this so he

724
00:40:09.460 --> 00:40:10.720
tends to hit more of

725
00:40:10.720 --> 00:40:16.390
kind of steep and um chunky poles um what I would say there is really monitor

726
00:40:16.390 --> 00:40:17.520
the grip pressure

727
00:40:17.520 --> 00:40:23.740
especially in that trail hand um and work a little bit more on the owner

728
00:40:23.740 --> 00:40:25.680
deviation or getting the club

729
00:40:25.680 --> 00:40:31.600
to shallow out um this way while you're doing it what can what can happen is if

730
00:40:31.600 --> 00:40:32.560
you just focus on

731
00:40:32.560 --> 00:40:37.360
that motorcycle movement the past starts to get too steep and then you have um

732
00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:38.240
some of what he

733
00:40:38.240 --> 00:40:42.490
described as toe contact you have some of these predictable mispatterns um that

734
00:40:42.490 --> 00:40:43.440
happen from more

735
00:40:43.440 --> 00:40:49.250
of a steepness not from a motorcycle thing uh he asks when does the lead wrist

736
00:40:49.250 --> 00:40:50.640
go into supination

737
00:40:50.640 --> 00:40:56.260
um so on the 3d graphs the lead wrist will start going into supination right

738
00:40:56.260 --> 00:40:57.760
around shaft 45 so

739
00:40:57.760 --> 00:41:03.700
kind of right about here is where the wrist starts to supinate and the neat

740
00:41:03.700 --> 00:41:06.240
thing is it's as it's

741
00:41:06.240 --> 00:41:10.780
going in transition so through here it's pronating so that I can start sup

742
00:41:10.780 --> 00:41:12.240
inating without having the

743
00:41:12.240 --> 00:41:17.120
club follow it initially so it kind of ramps up it's not really an explosive

744
00:41:17.120 --> 00:41:18.800
the explosive action

745
00:41:18.800 --> 00:41:23.930
but it starts right about here and it'll end um basically at the end of the

746
00:41:23.930 --> 00:41:25.040
release roughly shaft

747
00:41:25.040 --> 00:41:31.900
parallel to the ground uh here's the last question um how does the trail wrist

748
00:41:31.900 --> 00:41:34.160
go into extension um

749
00:41:34.160 --> 00:41:39.200
from p2 to the top of the swing and make it more vertical not behind um well

750
00:41:39.200 --> 00:41:40.800
when we look at how

751
00:41:40.800 --> 00:41:47.320
the wrists are on the club um that trail wrist is not truly on the side of the

752
00:41:47.320 --> 00:41:48.320
club it's a little

753
00:41:48.320 --> 00:41:53.110
bit more on top so when I extend the wrist especially if I add radial deviation

754
00:41:53.110 --> 00:41:54.640
at the same time

755
00:41:54.640 --> 00:41:59.520
that will tend to move the club more up in line with the forearm as opposed to

756
00:41:59.520 --> 00:42:01.520
around this way to

757
00:42:01.520 --> 00:42:07.530
get it more around this way you'll see in addition to extension I also had to

758
00:42:07.530 --> 00:42:08.960
do a fair amount of

759
00:42:08.960 --> 00:42:17.120
rotation right so working on that trail wrist to um extend wall radial dev

760
00:42:17.120 --> 00:42:19.920
iating um will help make

761
00:42:19.920 --> 00:42:25.920
it more uh vertical as opposed to extension and letting that shoulder rotate or

762
00:42:25.920 --> 00:42:27.120
letting that lead

763
00:42:27.120 --> 00:42:32.390
arm come away too much which would make it a little bit more horizontally um

764
00:42:32.390 --> 00:42:34.080
the key there is the if

765
00:42:34.080 --> 00:42:38.970
you get it more vertical so if you're across the line I'll exaggerate if I'm

766
00:42:38.970 --> 00:42:40.560
really across the line

767
00:42:40.560 --> 00:42:44.830
then I really have to shallow um the more that I get it in that horizontal

768
00:42:44.830 --> 00:42:46.000
position more like a

769
00:42:46.000 --> 00:42:52.420
john rom I don't have to shallow quite as um aggressively or as long so just

770
00:42:52.420 --> 00:42:54.480
making sure that

771
00:42:54.480 --> 00:42:59.650
you're utilizing radial deviation um while you're going into extension because

772
00:42:59.650 --> 00:43:00.400
those are kind of

773
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:06.960
couple motions and making sure that it's not um rotating too much uh supination

774
00:43:06.960 --> 00:43:08.400
will prevent it

775
00:43:08.400 --> 00:43:17.520
from getting um too flat at the top or too flat or more around you okay um come

776
00:43:17.520 --> 00:43:18.880
back to that when

777
00:43:18.880 --> 00:43:24.320
I see another live question Craig where should you where do I like to see the

778
00:43:24.320 --> 00:43:25.680
club face at P2

779
00:43:25.680 --> 00:43:32.230
and at P6 should it match the spine angle or both at both positions um I'm a

780
00:43:32.230 --> 00:43:36.560
lot uh as far as P2 goes

781
00:43:36.560 --> 00:43:43.710
I'm definitely like I look at the ranges and where it is at P2 is um you can be

782
00:43:43.710 --> 00:43:45.120
anywhere from let's

783
00:43:45.120 --> 00:43:49.620
say vertical to spine angle and I guess I would say that's pretty close to the

784
00:43:49.620 --> 00:43:51.680
same at P6 um anywhere

785
00:43:51.680 --> 00:43:55.450
from vertical to spine angle the the key thing is understanding the

786
00:43:55.450 --> 00:43:57.280
relationship of okay the more

787
00:43:57.280 --> 00:44:02.070
closed it is the more that I could um body rotate and wipe so the more I could

788
00:44:02.070 --> 00:44:03.600
potentially take the

789
00:44:03.600 --> 00:44:09.100
hands out of it um the the more vertical it is the more I'm still going to have

790
00:44:09.100 --> 00:44:10.080
to continue

791
00:44:10.080 --> 00:44:14.670
that motorcycle late and some guys especially if you have a lot of tension if

792
00:44:14.670 --> 00:44:16.400
you create a lot of

793
00:44:17.360 --> 00:44:21.600
arm tension and really grip the club down at the bottom it's very hard to have

794
00:44:21.600 --> 00:44:22.960
the continued rotation

795
00:44:22.960 --> 00:44:27.350
so if you know that you have a constitution where you're more you're really

796
00:44:27.350 --> 00:44:28.640
going to hold on

797
00:44:28.640 --> 00:44:33.440
on the way through and tighten those arms then I would probably try to get it a

798
00:44:33.440 --> 00:44:34.400
little bit more

799
00:44:34.400 --> 00:44:42.800
close to spine angle um if you have some softness in your arms you can you have

800
00:44:42.800 --> 00:44:43.440
a little bit more

801
00:44:43.440 --> 00:44:48.240
flexibility you can do either or now that being said with if we're now talking

802
00:44:48.240 --> 00:44:49.520
short irons wedges

803
00:44:49.520 --> 00:44:54.080
I would like to see it closer to toe vertical if you're looking at more driver

804
00:44:54.080 --> 00:44:54.800
long irons I would

805
00:44:54.800 --> 00:44:59.800
like to see it closer to the spine angle but it's more um matching relative

806
00:44:59.800 --> 00:45:01.280
pieces rather than an

807
00:45:01.280 --> 00:45:08.210
absolute look that you're trying to train okay last one um but quick one on

808
00:45:08.210 --> 00:45:09.520
here is there an

809
00:45:09.520 --> 00:45:13.920
archive um I believe that they're linked on youtube um for those on the site I

810
00:45:13.920 --> 00:45:16.000
am going to um copy

811
00:45:16.000 --> 00:45:21.040
them over and create a playlist of all the archived uh Q&As so that way you can

812
00:45:21.040 --> 00:45:22.080
check out all the ones

813
00:45:22.080 --> 00:45:27.590
that I've done in the past um okay uh Jim had a last minute question he emailed

814
00:45:27.590 --> 00:45:29.360
right before um

815
00:45:29.360 --> 00:45:33.390
about the right arm what does the right arm do in the backswing in the down

816
00:45:33.390 --> 00:45:34.640
swing specifically

817
00:45:34.640 --> 00:45:39.620
the right wrist so um he he had some really good success working on the

818
00:45:39.620 --> 00:45:41.280
motorcycle and the wipe

819
00:45:41.280 --> 00:45:45.950
combo um but then he was getting a little bit of a steep steeper mispattern so

820
00:45:45.950 --> 00:45:47.040
we started to try

821
00:45:47.040 --> 00:45:51.230
to introduce some older deviation and in getting that older deviation we were

822
00:45:51.230 --> 00:45:52.400
losing what's going

823
00:45:52.400 --> 00:45:58.210
on at the the trail wrist um so in that last question I kind of described some

824
00:45:58.210 --> 00:45:59.280
of what's going on

825
00:45:59.280 --> 00:46:04.610
where basically that right wrist is going to um extend and radial deviate and

826
00:46:04.610 --> 00:46:05.600
it'll feel like it

827
00:46:05.600 --> 00:46:11.100
goes into some pronation as well um as long as the shoulder is then externally

828
00:46:11.100 --> 00:46:12.320
rotated that combo

829
00:46:12.320 --> 00:46:19.070
doesn't put it across the line where if I um don't it radial deviate and if I

830
00:46:19.070 --> 00:46:20.720
supinate but then I

831
00:46:20.720 --> 00:46:24.710
really let my elbow go that's actually the more common pattern for getting

832
00:46:24.710 --> 00:46:26.320
across the line so

833
00:46:27.200 --> 00:46:32.400
I'm rotated kind of like that with some good uh radial deviation then down

834
00:46:32.400 --> 00:46:33.280
through impact

835
00:46:33.280 --> 00:46:39.750
down at the bottom is the trickier zone um through early part of transition or

836
00:46:39.750 --> 00:46:41.040
sorry mid kind of

837
00:46:41.040 --> 00:46:47.210
late transition before you get into the release it's going to um increase that

838
00:46:47.210 --> 00:46:49.040
extension uh radial

839
00:46:49.040 --> 00:46:53.700
deviation and extension so it's gonna have that little white look and then in

840
00:46:53.700 --> 00:46:55.440
order to not bottom

841
00:46:55.440 --> 00:47:00.450
out and lose it uh lose that extension and basically lose your low point

842
00:47:00.450 --> 00:47:02.800
control um one of the big

843
00:47:02.800 --> 00:47:08.500
keys is making sure that the extension of the wrist is maintained it feels like

844
00:47:08.500 --> 00:47:09.440
it's maintained

845
00:47:09.440 --> 00:47:14.560
all the way through impact um but in practicality what'll happen is with the

846
00:47:14.560 --> 00:47:16.400
speed and the bracing

847
00:47:16.400 --> 00:47:21.520
you'll lose that risk through impact but what I find is golfers trying to lose

848
00:47:21.520 --> 00:47:22.800
that wrist tend

849
00:47:22.800 --> 00:47:26.400
to have low point control issues where golfers trying to maintain that

850
00:47:26.400 --> 00:47:28.240
extension and have more

851
00:47:28.240 --> 00:47:34.150
of the rotation of the arm as opposed to more of kind of an attempt to hold it

852
00:47:34.150 --> 00:47:35.360
off like this

853
00:47:35.360 --> 00:47:39.600
tend to have better low point control it can get the low point forward with a

854
00:47:39.600 --> 00:47:40.240
little bit more

855
00:47:40.240 --> 00:47:46.000
um shallower contact so they can get shaft lean without a steep angle of attack

856
00:47:46.000 --> 00:47:47.280
which is uh one of

857
00:47:47.280 --> 00:47:54.390
the key different traders there for um you know good right arm mechanics okay

858
00:47:54.390 --> 00:47:56.800
uh so we we just

859
00:47:56.800 --> 00:48:00.550
