00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.480
This drill is wipe with aggression.

2
00:00:03.480 --> 00:00:08.640
So oftentimes players getting out of this kind of early throw, early cast

3
00:00:08.640 --> 00:00:09.640
pattern will

4
00:00:09.640 --> 00:00:15.390
feel very comfortable doing the wipe on say a very slow or a 9 to 3 style swing

5
00:00:15.390 --> 00:00:15.760
.

6
00:00:15.760 --> 00:00:21.410
So if they're used to throwing the club kind of like this, then what'll happen

7
00:00:21.410 --> 00:00:22.960
is we'll

8
00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:27.020
do some slow motion drills and they'll get a good feeling of the arms working

9
00:00:27.020 --> 00:00:27.760
more across

10
00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:32.330
and they'll be able to do a good little wipe move on these 9 to 3 swings and

11
00:00:32.330 --> 00:00:33.040
then what

12
00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:37.470
happens is they go to the full swing and everything kind of starts breaking

13
00:00:37.470 --> 00:00:38.060
down.

14
00:00:38.060 --> 00:00:42.470
So one of the ways that I'll typically challenge it is if you can do it in this

15
00:00:42.470 --> 00:00:43.400
9 to 3 and

16
00:00:43.400 --> 00:00:47.390
then it breaks down in the full swing it's either a transition or a power

17
00:00:47.390 --> 00:00:48.280
source issue

18
00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:52.280
and frequently when it comes to this wipe movement it's a power source issue.

19
00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:56.620
So what I'll do is I'll say okay now we're going to try to do, you've done 2 or

20
00:00:56.620 --> 00:00:57.240
3 good

21
00:00:57.240 --> 00:01:03.090
little wipe release 9 to 3s, now we're going to try and do one as hard as you

22
00:01:03.090 --> 00:01:03.720
can.

23
00:01:03.720 --> 00:01:07.120
So you have to kind of wipe a little bit aggressively.

24
00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:10.710
So what I'll usually do is I'll have them get into this position and I'll come

25
00:01:10.710 --> 00:01:11.240
provide

26
00:01:11.240 --> 00:01:16.770
a little resistance so they can feel the arms working more across their body

27
00:01:16.770 --> 00:01:17.760
kind of towards

28
00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:24.630
the target or out towards the target line as opposed to and then I'll put my

29
00:01:24.630 --> 00:01:25.400
hands right

30
00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:31.100
here and they'll feel that arm working straight out towards the golf ball kind

31
00:01:31.100 --> 00:01:32.640
of like that.

32
00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:38.600
So I'll get in this position, get them there and then I'll have them try to do

33
00:01:38.600 --> 00:01:39.440
a wipe with

34
00:01:39.440 --> 00:01:42.200
a little bit more aggression.

35
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:47.360
So get them into that 9 to 3 position and then really kind of feel that

36
00:01:47.360 --> 00:01:48.720
aggressive movement

37
00:01:48.720 --> 00:01:53.440
of the wipe and basically trying to hit this 9 to 3 as hard as I can.

38
00:01:53.440 --> 00:01:57.650
That gives you a sense of doing this position with a little bit more effort and

39
00:01:57.650 --> 00:01:58.160
then it

40
00:01:58.160 --> 00:02:03.470
makes it usually a little bit easier to then take it back up to the full swing

41
00:02:03.470 --> 00:02:04.080
and let

42
00:02:04.080 --> 00:02:06.720
that transfer into your full swing.

43
00:02:06.720 --> 00:02:10.550
So if you're struggling, if you can do the wipe move really well on a short

44
00:02:10.550 --> 00:02:11.280
little 9

45
00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:15.640
to 3 or a less than full intensity but then it breaks down when you get up to

46
00:02:15.640 --> 00:02:16.200
the top

47
00:02:16.200 --> 00:02:20.700
of the swing, try doing the 9 to 3 with a little bit of intensity so we call

48
00:02:20.700 --> 00:02:21.400
this wipe

49
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:22.080
with Aggression.
