1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.320
This is my view is looking at the difference between the driver and the iron.

2
00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:13.600
So I've got my driver and my seven iron and I've got my little visual impact

3
00:00:13.600 --> 00:00:14.240
station.

4
00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:19.760
So visual impact station I basically have my target line perpendicular and

5
00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:20.680
roughly about

6
00:00:20.680 --> 00:00:25.140
middle or where I'm going to start my stance position and we got a line about

7
00:00:25.140 --> 00:00:26.560
45 and 45.

8
00:00:26.560 --> 00:00:35.100
So if I was to get into setup position with my seven iron, there you can see

9
00:00:35.100 --> 00:00:36.120
the body

10
00:00:36.120 --> 00:00:37.640
position just like so.

11
00:00:37.640 --> 00:00:41.840
Now if I was to go through kind of a slow motion swing, you'll see that my

12
00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:42.580
upper body

13
00:00:42.580 --> 00:00:49.180
kind of stays on top of it and that release is going much more down into the

14
00:00:49.180 --> 00:00:49.960
ground than

15
00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:53.260
it is out towards the target.

16
00:00:53.260 --> 00:01:02.790
Now if I was to do the same thing with the driver, so feet together, small step

17
00:01:02.790 --> 00:01:03.340
, big

18
00:01:03.340 --> 00:01:05.700
step, foot turn out.

19
00:01:05.700 --> 00:01:10.190
So now if I was to go up towards the top of the swing, come one down, nice and

20
00:01:10.190 --> 00:01:10.740
slow.

21
00:01:10.740 --> 00:01:16.330
You can see that my upper body from my perspective feels like it's more over my

22
00:01:16.330 --> 00:01:17.540
right foot and

23
00:01:17.540 --> 00:01:20.900
looks well behind the ball even though it's coming in.

24
00:01:20.900 --> 00:01:25.940
So my release position and direction is going to be much more out towards the

25
00:01:25.940 --> 00:01:26.760
target than

26
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:28.940
with the iron down towards the ground.

27
00:01:28.940 --> 00:01:32.130
Even though I'm making roughly the same hand motions, the biggest difference is

28
00:01:32.130 --> 00:01:32.460
going to

29
00:01:32.460 --> 00:01:36.610
be the location where my upper body or how this axis still has affected where

30
00:01:36.610 --> 00:01:37.260
my release

31
00:01:37.260 --> 00:01:38.380
is going to be.

32
00:01:38.380 --> 00:01:43.580
So hopefully that helps you see how subtle it looks from the third person point

33
00:01:43.580 --> 00:01:44.140
of view

34
00:01:44.140 --> 00:01:48.460
but how drastically different it looks from that first person point of view.

35
00:01:48.460 --> 00:01:52.360
If you're struggling with either your driver or the irons because of this axis

36
00:01:52.360 --> 00:01:52.980
tilt, hopefully

37
00:01:52.980 --> 00:01:55.340
this gives you a good view of what you should see.

38
00:02:18.460 --> 00:02:28.460
