00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
This finesse wedge drill is pelvic angle consistency.

00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:09,000
So we talk a lot about these finesse wedges and how we want to keep the lower body

00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:15,000
as more of a balance or more of a platform for balance and stability, not so much for creating

00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,000
a lot of power.

00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:21,000
And that goes all the way into your low distance wedges.

00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:27,000
So when I do 3Ds and when I look at 3Ds of really good wedge buyers, typically what you'll

00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,000
see is if I had

00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:35,000
this angle of my pelvis, let's just say I had a measurement here.

00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,000
When I get into my setup posture, it's going to be somewhere around 20 degrees or so from

00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,000
setup or from vertical.

00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:49,000
In the full swing, because I'm really using my lower body, my glutes, my abs, typically

00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:54,000
that's going to decrease about 20 degrees from the top of the swing to impact.

00:00:54,000 --> 00:01:01,000
So during the downswing has this major kind of thrusting move as it's rotating, which helps

00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,000
transfer power through the core, does a lot of really good things.

00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:09,000
Well what I've seen with golfers who struggle with their wedges is typically they'll

00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,000
use that same power source.

00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:16,000
Where the best guys instead of going 20 degrees, it pretty much stays about the same.

00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:21,000
I've seen as little as 3Ds change than as much as 5 for really good players.

00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:27,000
You struggle, it'll be in the 10-15 degree range almost as much as their full swing.

00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:31,000
One thing that you can focus on when you're working on your finesse wedges is to feel

00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,000
like wherever this belt buckle is pointed, it's set up.

00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:40,000
It's going to be pointed about the same place at impact.

00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:46,000
If you find that it starts standing up, you can whip, you can top of them, you can hit

00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,000
fat if you end up coming behind it just like so.

00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,000
There's lots of bad things that can happen from this lower body thrust, which is a big

00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:57,000
power source that we don't really want to use for the finesse wedge.

00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:02,000
So pay attention to where this belt buckle is pointing and you can use it with any incommination

00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:08,000
with any of your finesse wedge, release, and training drills.

00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,000
So hopefully that'll help you if you're struggling with the fat in contact with your finesse

00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,000
wedges and learning how to power it from the right areas.
