  • "pulling on shoulder socket" --i found interesting. too often my students (usually in their 60's) expend so much effort to take a bigger shoulder turn because they want more distance. and too often they injur their shoulders/lower back. the spine can only sustain so much. i understand the horseshoe analogy, but i fear having any senior golfer swing a club or horseshoe like that. clubhead speed can be "safely" generated by staying centered, making the club light, and utilizing the arms.

  • @steckleinjr Very important comment and misunderstanding about human anatomy; the turn table for the body is where the pelvis sits on top of the hips; please see a simple analogy in this video: "golf pro lesson garage door big power"; SHOULDERS DO NOT TURN!! Pelvis and rib cage turn as one massive unit on top of hips to get out of the way of the arm-club unit; it is this way with ALL SPORTS because we are dealing with A HUMAN SKELETAL SYSTEM. Thank you kindly for the comment; Shawn

  • eh, Shawn

    Good Luck, GS

  • Bonjour @Shawn! I thought I'ven seen all your videos, but found this one only now.

    I think I just have one of those "revelation" moment! I've been studying golf (too much!) for the past 10 years, and I always tried to find a way to feel the clubhead's weight, without much success.

    At 5:05, when you said then in the BS, the club must float, many lights when on ;) Being able to let the club float will allow me to use the compression move too!!

    Thank you for that and all your other videos! Jon

  • Hi Shawn. I have posted a small comment in very short chip shot video about whether extension/compression sequence should be used in 20-30 yards chip shots. Would like your views because it seems it sometimes makes the impact fat.

  • First you twirled the small rope in a circle by moving your wrist up and down.

    Then you twirled the large rope in a circle by moving your wrist and arm back and forth

    To this motion you added your body, predominately the leg action, always moving in sync with your wrist and arms. The body, arms and wrists replaced the original wrist action. So the golf swing is simply the principle of the wrist action on a larger scale. That’s the feeling we should be looking for?

  • @mjs0039 Right away dude!! You are already wired to do this right now! Just swing the club in the backyard in perpetual motion and time your "centrifugal pump" with the freedom of the arm-club swing in both directions;

  • @clemshaw ..Greetings. Should I be doing the extension/compression sequence from day 1 or should I wait for my swing to improve and stabilize before I start this. Thanks and Thumbs up.

  • thats a beautiful action shawnie....where do the wrists whip the ball close to contact.just after ball strike,,th.

  • @clemshaw oh yea Shawn I voted!!!! The least I could do for you after all the help you've given all of us looking to improve our golf game....you're ahead by about 200 votes over the other teachers!!! Hope that has some weight on their decision....it should! Keep it up bud....you have a gift and camera presence that cant be ignored...shame on them if they dont recognize that! Love the horseshoe analogy by the way...shift worker,,,couldnt sleep tonight...saw it and started swinging inside :)

  • Great video, Shawn... I really liked the brain / gravity computer analogy. As a first year player I'm still honing my swing but already my wedge play is dead on. It drives me nuts to hear instructors talk about 10-2, 9-3, 8-4 O'clock swings for distance control because it's so unnatural. I can't tell you how far my backswing is to hit the ball 35 yards but I intuitively know to swing it "just enough" and it goes where I want. (Someday I'll trust my full swing as much!)
