00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.520
This is my view of the delivery pump.
2
00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:08.520
Now the delivery pump is one of my go-to transition drills for learning to
3
00:00:08.520 --> 00:00:10.160
power transition when
4
00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:12.760
we're from the body instead of from the arms.
5
00:00:12.760 --> 00:00:17.200
So essentially what's going to happen is I'm going to get in my setup position,
6
00:00:17.200 --> 00:00:17.280
I'm
7
00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:21.610
going to go up to the top of the swing and then I'm going to try and use my
8
00:00:21.610 --> 00:00:22.400
body to bring
9
00:00:22.400 --> 00:00:27.640
my arms down to this delivery position before I would then go into that release
10
00:00:27.640 --> 00:00:27.960
.
11
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:32.720
So the delivery pump is basically practicing that transition movement a couple
12
00:00:32.720 --> 00:00:33.280
times and
13
00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:36.320
then going through the rest of the swing without stopping.
14
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:40.040
So I'll demonstrate one so you can see what I'm talking about.
15
00:00:40.040 --> 00:00:43.740
So we're going to go up to the top of the swing, we're going to go pump one,
16
00:00:43.740 --> 00:00:46.760
pump two,
17
00:00:46.760 --> 00:00:47.160
swing three.
18
00:00:57.960 --> 00:01:23.320
Now it's going to be hard for me to swing at exactly my full.
19
00:01:23.320 --> 00:01:27.100
So my ball flight may come down a little bit, things may change just slightly,
20
00:01:27.100 --> 00:01:27.560
but it should
21
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:30.840
be pretty close.
22
00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:35.110
Once I have a good feeling or a good view of this, I can try to recreate that
23
00:01:35.110 --> 00:01:36.120
same tempo,
24
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:40.740
that same feeling of the body leading, that same image of how it looks using my
25
00:01:40.740 --> 00:01:41.200
normal
26
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:43.160
swing.
27
00:01:43.160 --> 00:01:47.880
With troubleshooting what I see a lot when I'm working with my students is
28
00:01:47.880 --> 00:01:49.040
basically when
29
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:54.500
they go into this, either the club face is going to be wide open and so now I'm
30
00:01:54.500 --> 00:01:55.200
pumping
31
00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:59.190
like so, but then when I go to actually release, I have to release those arms
32
00:01:59.190 --> 00:01:59.960
like this in
33
00:01:59.960 --> 00:02:06.600
order to square it, it's kind of more of the flip release from the open club
34
00:02:06.600 --> 00:02:09.000
face position.
35
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:15.920
Or I will, when I pump down, I'll basically pump down by straightening my arms.
36
00:02:15.920 --> 00:02:18.630
And now when I do that at speed, you can see that there's no way I'm going to
37
00:02:18.630 --> 00:02:18.920
hold
38
00:02:18.920 --> 00:02:20.200
back the club.
39
00:02:20.200 --> 00:02:23.900
And so what ends up happening is I get into this position and then I have to
40
00:02:23.900 --> 00:02:24.480
stand up
41
00:02:24.480 --> 00:02:27.940
to prevent myself from hitting the ground because if I did any amount of really
42
00:02:27.940 --> 00:02:28.240
good
43
00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:32.400
side bend with those arms straightening, I'd hit way back here.
44
00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:36.840
So those two misses are typically going to be powering with the arms and kind
45
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:37.320
of those
46
00:02:37.320 --> 00:02:42.260
arms straightening and bringing the club down like so, or getting that club
47
00:02:42.260 --> 00:02:43.400
face open instead
48
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:44.760
of the motorcycle.
49
00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:50.760
The good one is going to be very relaxed and soft arms up until right about
50
00:02:50.760 --> 00:02:51.480
here.
51
00:02:51.480 --> 00:02:56.280
And then I'm going to extend my arms as I go through this release.
52
00:02:56.280 --> 00:03:00.150
So one of the go-to drills for working on powering the swing with your body,
53
00:03:00.150 --> 00:03:00.640
you get
54
00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:04.980
to work on the positions, you get to redefine kind of some of these tempos, it
55
00:03:04.980 --> 00:03:05.640
's a great
56
00:03:05.640 --> 00:03:09.800
drill for repatterning and repowering your swing more from the body in the core
57
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:10.120
.
1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.520

2
00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:08.520

00:00:22.400 --> 00:00:27.640
my arms down to this delivery position before I would then go into that release
10
00:00:27.640 --> 00:00:27.960

00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:10.120
.
1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.520
This is my view of the delivery pump.
2
00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:08.520
Now the delivery pump is one of my go-to transition drills for learning to
3
00:00:08.520 --> 00:00:10.160
power transition when
4
00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:12.760
we're from the body instead of from the arms.
5
00:00:12.760 --> 00:00:17.200
So essentially what's going to happen is I'm going to get in my setup position,
6
00:00:17.200 --> 00:00:17.280
I'm
7
00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:21.610
going to go up to the top of the swing and then I'm going to try and use my
8
00:00:21.610 --> 00:00:22.400
body to bring
9
00:00:22.400 --> 00:00:27.640
my arms down to this delivery position before I would then go into that release
10
00:00:27.640 --> 00:00:27.960
.
11
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:32.720
So the delivery pump is basically practicing that transition movement a couple
12
00:00:32.720 --> 00:00:33.280
times and
13
00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:36.320
then going through the rest of the swing without stopping.
14
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:40.040
So I'll demonstrate one so you can see what I'm talking about.
15
00:00:40.040 --> 00:00:43.740
So we're going to go up to the top of the swing, we're going to go pump one,
16
00:00:43.740 --> 00:00:46.760
pump two,
17
00:00:46.760 --> 00:00:47.160
swing three.
18
00:00:57.960 --> 00:01:23.320
Now it's going to be hard for me to swing at exactly my full.
19
00:01:23.320 --> 00:01:27.100
So my ball flight may come down a little bit, things may change just slightly,
20
00:01:27.100 --> 00:01:27.560
but it should
21
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:30.840
be pretty close.
22
00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:35.110
Once I have a good feeling or a good view of this, I can try to recreate that
23
00:01:35.110 --> 00:01:36.120
same tempo,
24
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:40.740
that same feeling of the body leading, that same image of how it looks using my
25
00:01:40.740 --> 00:01:41.200
normal
26
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:43.160
swing.
27
00:01:43.160 --> 00:01:47.880
With troubleshooting what I see a lot when I'm working with my students is
28
00:01:47.880 --> 00:01:49.040
basically when
29
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:54.500
they go into this, either the club face is going to be wide open and so now I'm
30
00:01:54.500 --> 00:01:55.200
pumping
31
00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:59.190
like so, but then when I go to actually release, I have to release those arms
32
00:01:59.190 --> 00:01:59.960
like this in
33
00:01:59.960 --> 00:02:06.600
order to square it, it's kind of more of the flip release from the open club
34
00:02:06.600 --> 00:02:09.000
face position.
35
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:15.920
Or I will, when I pump down, I'll basically pump down by straightening my arms.
36
00:02:15.920 --> 00:02:18.630
And now when I do that at speed, you can see that there's no way I'm going to
37
00:02:18.630 --> 00:02:18.920
hold
38
00:02:18.920 --> 00:02:20.200
back the club.
39
00:02:20.200 --> 00:02:23.900
And so what ends up happening is I get into this position and then I have to
40
00:02:23.900 --> 00:02:24.480
stand up
41
00:02:24.480 --> 00:02:27.940
to prevent myself from hitting the ground because if I did any amount of really
42
00:02:27.940 --> 00:02:28.240
good
43
00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:32.400
side bend with those arms straightening, I'd hit way back here.
44
00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:36.840
So those two misses are typically going to be powering with the arms and kind
45
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:37.320
of those
46
00:02:37.320 --> 00:02:42.260
arms straightening and bringing the club down like so, or getting that club
47
00:02:42.260 --> 00:02:43.400
face open instead
48
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:44.760
of the motorcycle.
49
00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:50.760
The good one is going to be very relaxed and soft arms up until right about
50
00:02:50.760 --> 00:02:51.480
here.
51
00:02:51.480 --> 00:02:56.280
And then I'm going to extend my arms as I go through this release.
52
00:02:56.280 --> 00:03:00.150
So one of the go-to drills for working on powering the swing with your body,
53
00:03:00.150 --> 00:03:00.640
you get
54
00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:04.980
to work on the positions, you get to redefine kind of some of these tempos, it
55
00:03:04.980 --> 00:03:05.640
's a great
56
00:03:05.640 --> 00:03:09.800
drill for repatterning and repowering your swing more from the body in the core
57
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:10.120
.
