Shawn -- this tip probably changed my game the most, especially with the driver. My problem used to be bringing the club too far behind me (and on a flat plane), and the idea of moving the handle first keeps the club in front of my body.
I know you mention it in the video, but is it really OK to swing with the hands all loose and the arms quiet, similar to the hickory-club style? I look at my takeaway and the club handle is pointed at my right thigh before the clubhead has even moved.
I would continue on this path yes; then continue to make it more and more seamless untill it looks like mine; you will still see a hint of it in my swings...very important to feel the abandon to centrifugal force in the backswing; Shawn
Great info Mr. Clement...I worked on this and it was and improvement as far as striking the ball, I understand the reason for the squat is to shallow out the swing plane. In doing the squat right, I felt my inner thigh outer thigh abductor muscles as I moved into my left side. In making this move I'll be more consistent. I realized in failing to make a consistent squat I was hitting inconsistently.
Fun realisation no? Other videos to help with this are the "Golf pro lesson swing sequence", "Golf pro lesson sequence power drills", Golf pro lesson downswing weightshift" and "Golf pro lesson 2008 golf swing review part 2"; Shawn
Have a look at my "Golf pro lesson timing and tempo update" and "golf pro lesson perpetual motion drill" for starters; a great drill on top of this would be the "Golf pro lesson medicine ball drill" Shawn
What you need to do is perfect the "One Leg Swing no weightshift" to feel the unwinding in the downswing around a solid brace against the left side; then see "golf pro lesson don't keep your head down" part 1 and 2 to make sure your head is not staying down too long; complete the package with "golf pro lesson downswing weightshift" tyhanks for the comment! Shawn
Because of what golf instruction has become, I get this question a lot; here is the answer: There is one plane for each club; then there is the plane you use for that particular shot with that club (Ball below feet, above feet etc); so how are you going to find that particular plane? See "golf pro lesson swing plane" for the answer; you will also enjoy "golf pro lesson arms falling down plane"; Thanks for the question! Shawn
