Improve Your Swing Sequence: Pull Then Push Drill
After this video, you'll be able to:
- Feel the correct timing between pulling with your body and pushing with your arms
- Understand how to maintain power by using your legs and core effectively
- Identify the ideal delivery position to enhance your swing dynamics
In this drill, you'll learn how to effectively sequence your movements by pulling the body before pushing the arms. This timing is crucial for maximizing club head speed and hitting the ball farther.

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.200
This drill is called pull then push and it's a sequencing drill to help you
2
00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:10.200
figure out how to put some of these movements in place. So the delivery
3
00:00:10.200 --> 00:00:14.000
position that we talk about in the transition section is kind of the
4
00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:20.360
halfway point between pulling and pushing. And the way I look at it is it's
5
00:00:20.360 --> 00:00:24.240
almost like I got a heavy boulder that's on a string and I get over there and I
6
00:00:24.240 --> 00:00:28.040
grab the rope that's holding this heavy boulder and then I have to make some
7
00:00:28.040 --> 00:00:28.240
big
8
00:00:28.240 --> 00:00:31.240
movements to kind of get the boulder going but then it's moving really fast
9
00:00:31.240 --> 00:00:35.120
and I don't want it to pull me so then I kind of have to brace against the
10
00:00:35.120 --> 00:00:36.160
boulder
11
00:00:36.160 --> 00:00:41.280
being pulled too much towards the target. Okay so what ends up happening is you
12
00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:41.440
go
13
00:00:41.440 --> 00:00:46.240
to the top of the swing and the body is going to pull the club down until it
14
00:00:46.240 --> 00:00:50.200
gets into this delivery position and then you start bracing against the
15
00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:55.320
ground as you push kind of building on that energy. It goes back to that
16
00:00:55.320 --> 00:00:55.840
spinning
17
00:00:55.840 --> 00:01:01.000
a head cover idea and when we want to apply force. So there's kind of a slight
18
00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:05.040
pull with the body and then a push from the arms. A pull from the body, a push
19
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:11.280
from the arms. The pull from the body can happen anywhere from the legs to the
20
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:15.440
core all the way up to about your ribcage but if it happens mostly from the
21
00:01:15.440 --> 00:01:19.720
shoulders that's when you will get into more of a cast style sequencing and you
22
00:01:19.720 --> 00:01:19.760
'll
23
00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:25.680
end up losing power. So this is more of an imagery and something that you can
24
00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:30.720
kind of think about and it's built more around kind of the timing of when those
25
00:01:30.720 --> 00:01:34.640
arms release and what the upper body is doing to brace against the arm release
26
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:39.160
but it's an important image that I've had a lot of success with with players
27
00:01:39.160 --> 00:01:45.200
feeling that they kind of gently pull before they push and that's what gives
28
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:48.130
us the most speed in the club head and gets us to hit the ball the farthest
29
00:01:48.130 --> 00:01:48.640
with
30
00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:51.440
