00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,000
The drill is low to high release.

00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:08,000
So, the drill is to help you with anyone who is early extending, anyone who is kind of

00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,000
scooping, casting.

00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:16,000
It's a overall drill to help you get a general sense of what we want the club to be doing

00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,000
kind of during this nine to three zone.

00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:25,000
And it's a specific drill for people who tend to have the hands very high in this point

00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:30,000
and then the hands and the grip will be working down as they approach the golf ball

00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,000
kind of like that.

00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:38,000
So in order to get out of that pattern and have a little bit more shuffling, then what you

00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,000
have to get used to is you have to get used to your hands being a little bit lower in this

00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:47,000
position and then slightly working up and in because of the bracing because of the continued

00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,000
side bend and left shoulder movement.

00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:54,000
So it ends up looking, you're kind of low in this point and then it's actually going

00:00:54,000 --> 00:01:00,000
to be working slightly up as you complete the rest of the release.

00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:05,000
So the way I usually have my students first experience this, especially if I see on video

00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:09,000
that the hands are really high and then there's a pronounced straightening in the shaft

00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,000
kind of like this.

00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:16,000
If you have that pattern, what'll happen is if you start to try to get any amount of

00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,000
shaft lean, you're used to releasing the hands at a certain timing and you're going to

00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,000
hit it fat and you're going to hit it really steep.

00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:29,000
So what I'll do is have them get set up, then we'll go to impact so it's going to go

00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:35,000
set up to impact and then I'm going to have them take the club away while keeping their

00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:41,000
lower body in impact position but I'm going to have them bring their hands slightly down.

00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:47,000
Now you'll see that when I do this, I'm not really doing it by straightening my elbow.

00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:52,000
I'm doing it more by bending slightly forward.

00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:59,000
So what'll end up happening is I get to that position and then as I come through, my hands

00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,000
are going to work slightly out because of this extension.

00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:08,000
Now what I'll usually do is I will put the club kind of like this where it's just a really

00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:16,000
subtle gentle out to in and low to high path and I'll have them try to almost trace that

00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:23,000
line with their hands as they're releasing the club or letting the forums rotate just a

00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,000
little bit.

00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,000
So from down the line, it looks like this.

00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:36,000
You're going to go set up, take it to impact, go slightly down and then as you release,

00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,000
you're basically going to extend those arms and finish off kind of like that.

00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:45,000
So if you have any trouble with the scoop, if you have any trouble with early extension,

00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:51,000
this is usually a good way to do the nine to three drills to focus on the path of the

00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,000
hands and how they relate to the path of the club.

00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,000
So one more time.

00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:59,000
Set up, impact, low release.
