Improve Your Transition with Resisted Shaft Tipping Drill
After this video, you'll be able to:
- Feel the correct movement of your arms during the transition phase.
- Understand how to engage your forearms for improved swing dynamics.
- Develop muscle memory for a more consistent and effective swing transition.
Learn how to use a golf cart for resistance in the tipping of the shaft during your swing transition. This drill helps you develop better control and awareness for smoother transitions on the course.

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.080
This drill video is resisted tipping of the shaft so tipping of the shaft is
2
00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:11.060
what some of my students refer to as this flattening of just the arms during
3
00:00:11.060 --> 00:00:14.680
transition so if you're unfamiliar with that you're welcome to take a look at
4
00:00:14.680 --> 00:00:18.280
practicing just the arms in transition or the transition overview to understand
5
00:00:18.280 --> 00:00:22.800
what the forearms are doing in relationship to the body but often times
6
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:28.720
they I will in the lesson grab the club and provide some resistance but they
7
00:00:28.720 --> 00:00:31.520
don't have it when they're on the course so I'm going to show you how you can
8
00:00:31.520 --> 00:00:31.640
use
9
00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:35.600
your golf cart to provide the resistance basically what you're going to do is
10
00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:39.440
you're going to get set up so that your back is to the target or to the golf
11
00:00:39.440 --> 00:00:43.400
cart you're not hitting golf balls this way this is only to get a feeling that
12
00:00:43.400 --> 00:00:47.440
you could then apply when you're practicing so what I'm going to do is
13
00:00:47.440 --> 00:00:51.840
I'm going to go up to the top of my swing so somewhere around there and I'm
14
00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:55.400
going to come down towards transition now if you have a very long swing you
15
00:00:55.400 --> 00:00:55.480
have
16
00:00:55.480 --> 00:00:58.880
to might have to come down more but we're going to take it to kind of about arm
17
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:04.160
parallel to the ground or be well before delivery position so right here what
18
00:01:04.160 --> 00:01:09.040
I'm going to do is I'm going to get into my good transition of my body and I'm
19
00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:15.080
going to try and basically turn the club down into the golf cart like so now
20
00:01:15.080 --> 00:01:20.120
what what I'm going to do is I'm going to see if I can feel it by bringing this
21
00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:23.680
right elbow in front and get it more in kind of this backside of my right
22
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:28.160
shoulder and then I'm going to see if I can feel this left side turning down
23
00:01:28.160 --> 00:01:28.880
like
24
00:01:28.880 --> 00:01:33.040
so and feel it more in the left forearm I'm going to see which is easier to
25
00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:33.280
feel
26
00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:37.200
and then I'm going to try and combine them together into one feeling so while
27
00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:43.440
I'm pressing you want to press for about five seconds or so to help activate
28
00:01:43.440 --> 00:01:43.600
the
29
00:01:43.600 --> 00:01:47.400
muscles if you do it just very quickly your brain's not going to have enough
30
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:53.920
time if you look at techniques like muscle activation NKT typically when
31
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:57.840
you're trying to activate muscle they do five to six second isometric holds so
32
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:00.280
we're just going to do that at the top of the swing where we want to get
33
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:00.680
certain
34
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:06.360
muscles active so up here I'm going to get that feeling then I'm going to step
35
00:02:06.360 --> 00:02:14.180
away and I'm going to let that feeling happen even more so that feeling from
36
00:02:14.180 --> 00:02:14.280
the
37
00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:18.740
top of the swing is basically this but I'm trying to do it kind of in a
38
00:02:18.740 --> 00:02:19.720
controlled
39
00:02:19.720 --> 00:02:26.040
almost guided way and what'll happen is as I'm rotating as I do that that'll
40
00:02:26.040 --> 00:02:29.720
allow my body to stay a little bit more over the golf ball and help control the
41
00:02:29.720 --> 00:02:33.600
path what most golfers do is they get up to the top of the swing and then the
42
00:02:33.600 --> 00:02:39.880
arms go very very steep and unless I was Charles Barkley I would stand up to
43
00:02:39.880 --> 00:02:45.160
balance it back out so working on this forums flattening during transition is
44
00:02:45.160 --> 00:02:49.000
one of the key movements if you want to stabilize your body pivot which helps
45
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:54.080
with both distance and consistency in building your stock full swing
1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.080
This drill video is resisted tipping of the shaft so tipping of the shaft is

what the forearms are doing in relationship to the body but often times
6

they I will in the lesson grab the club and provide some resistance but they
7

have
16

to might have to come down more but we're going to take it to kind of about arm
17
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:04.160
parallel to the ground or be well before delivery position so right here what
18
00:01:04.160 --> 00:01:09.040
I'm going to do is I'm going to get into my good transition of my body and I'm
19
00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:15.080
going to try and basically turn the club down into the golf cart like so now
20
00:01:15.080 --> 00:01:20.120
what what I'm going to do is I'm going to see if I can feel it by bringing this
21
00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:23.680
right elbow in front and get it more in kind of this backside of my right
22
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:28.160
shoulder and then I'm going to see if I can feel this left side turning down
23
00:01:28.160 --> 00:01:28.880
like
24
00:01:28.880 --> 00:01:33.040
so and feel it more in the left forearm I'm going to see which is easier to
25
00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:33.280
feel
26
00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:37.200
and then I'm going to try and combine them together into one feeling so while
27
00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:43.440
I'm pressing you want to press for about five seconds or so to help activate
28
00:01:43.440 --> 00:01:43.600
the
29
00:01:43.600 --> 00:01:47.400
muscles if you do it just very quickly your brain's not going to have enough
30
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:53.920
time if you look at techniques like muscle activation NKT typically when
31
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:57.840
you're trying to activate muscle they do five to six second isometric holds so
32
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:00.280
we're just going to do that at the top of the swing where we want to get
33
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:00.680
certain
34
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:06.360
muscles active so up here I'm going to get that feeling then I'm going to step
35
00:02:06.360 --> 00:02:14.180
away and I'm going to let that feeling happen even more so that feeling from
36
00:02:14.180 --> 00:02:14.280
the
37
00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:18.740
top of the swing is basically this but I'm trying to do it kind of in a
38
00:02:18.740 --> 00:02:19.720
controlled
39
00:02:19.720 --> 00:02:26.040
almost guided way and what'll happen is as I'm rotating as I do that that'll
40
00:02:26.040 --> 00:02:29.720
allow my body to stay a little bit more over the golf ball and help control the
41
00:02:29.720 --> 00:02:33.600
path what most golfers do is they get up to the top of the swing and then the
42
00:02:33.600 --> 00:02:39.880
arms go very very steep and unless I was Charles Barkley I would stand up to
43
00:02:39.880 --> 00:02:45.160
balance it back out so working on this forums flattening during transition is
44
00:02:45.160 --> 00:02:49.000
one of the key movements if you want to stabilize your body pivot which helps
45
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:54.080
with both distance and consistency in building your stock full swing
