00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:03.330
this golf smart insight we're gonna talk

00:00:03.330 --> 00:00:05.430
about the three drivers of the golf

00:00:05.430 --> 00:00:07.740
swing and I don't mean the golf club the

00:00:07.740 --> 00:00:09.780
driver you're number one would talking

00:00:09.780 --> 00:00:12.059
about the three kind of organizers of

00:00:12.059 --> 00:00:15.990
movement so I've talked about this with

00:00:15.990 --> 00:00:18.390
a number of other teaching professionals

00:00:18.390 --> 00:00:20.430
and kind of amateurs that really study

00:00:20.430 --> 00:00:21.810
the swing and it seems to help clarify

00:00:21.810 --> 00:00:24.300
things a lot there are three major

00:00:24.300 --> 00:00:25.800
things that you're gonna try to do when

00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:27.990
you play golf one you're gonna try to

00:00:27.990 --> 00:00:32.309
create speed right - you're gonna try

00:00:32.309 --> 00:00:35.430
and direct the path of this club so

00:00:35.430 --> 00:00:37.680
wherever this club is kind of swinging

00:00:37.680 --> 00:00:40.710
around is gonna get controlled somehow

00:00:40.710 --> 00:00:43.110
and then three you're gonna try to

00:00:43.110 --> 00:00:46.500
organize the club head to that path so

00:00:46.500 --> 00:00:47.160
you got power

00:00:47.160 --> 00:00:49.649
you got path and you got face those are

00:00:49.649 --> 00:00:52.920
the three major major contributors to

00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:55.170
the golf swing and everything that you

00:00:55.170 --> 00:00:58.219
do in your body is either going to add

00:00:58.219 --> 00:01:01.829
power affect the path or effect the face

00:01:01.829 --> 00:01:05.250
now the major ones that affect the face

00:01:05.250 --> 00:01:06.659
are going to be your hands and your

00:01:06.659 --> 00:01:08.159
forearms because that's the only thing

00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:10.350
that's going to change that orientation

00:01:10.350 --> 00:01:13.140
there but there are a lot of things that

00:01:13.140 --> 00:01:16.500
we do with either our power sources or

00:01:16.500 --> 00:01:20.400
the way we control our path that kind of

00:01:20.400 --> 00:01:22.860
play off each other or compete with each

00:01:22.860 --> 00:01:25.320
other let's take the example of say I'm

00:01:25.320 --> 00:01:28.200
trying to create power for my legs right

00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:30.030
so the more that I create power from my

00:01:30.030 --> 00:01:33.299
legs pretty much in any direction it's

00:01:33.299 --> 00:01:36.810
going to tend to cause the path to get a

00:01:36.810 --> 00:01:39.930
little bit more shallow so this can be

00:01:39.930 --> 00:01:42.750
good to a certain point right if I do

00:01:42.750 --> 00:01:46.229
too much and I get too shallow now I'm

00:01:46.229 --> 00:01:48.500
gonna have some struggles with

00:01:48.500 --> 00:01:50.700
consistent contacts out of fairways

00:01:50.700 --> 00:01:53.009
short wedge shots I might be great off

00:01:53.009 --> 00:01:54.750
the tee but I'm gonna have some issues

00:01:54.750 --> 00:01:57.030
conversely someone that doesn't use

00:01:57.030 --> 00:02:00.090
their lower body for power at all will

00:02:00.090 --> 00:02:02.130
tend to have a little bit more steep

00:02:02.130 --> 00:02:04.020
swing or they're gonna have to create

00:02:04.020 --> 00:02:06.420
that shallowness of the path from

00:02:06.420 --> 00:02:09.989
somewhere else so what I like to do is

00:02:09.989 --> 00:02:12.390
think of every movement as trying to

00:02:12.390 --> 00:02:13.650
balance the scale

00:02:13.650 --> 00:02:17.010
the scales of steep and shallow of as

00:02:17.010 --> 00:02:19.790
much power as I can create versus

00:02:19.790 --> 00:02:23.430
getting this path correct and then the

00:02:23.430 --> 00:02:25.680
last kind of a little wild card is the

00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:28.080
clubface alignment because sometimes the

00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.360
only way you know how to align the face

00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:33.900
is if your path is wrong or let's put it

00:02:33.900 --> 00:02:36.000
instead of wrong let's say the only way

00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:37.860
you know how to get the face pointing in

00:02:37.860 --> 00:02:39.420
the direction of the target is if the

00:02:39.420 --> 00:02:42.840
path is coming across like so versus if

00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:44.459
it's coming from the inside and you have

00:02:44.459 --> 00:02:47.849
to apply some of this rotational or

00:02:47.849 --> 00:02:50.400
gamma torque or screwdriver or

00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:53.160
motorcycle force so this wheel around

00:02:53.160 --> 00:02:57.120
the axle so if you break it down that

00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:00.329
way you can learn how to create speed

00:03:00.329 --> 00:03:04.799
from the body how to not limit that

00:03:04.799 --> 00:03:06.989
speed with your arms or how to delay the

00:03:06.989 --> 00:03:09.269
release of the arms how to control the

00:03:09.269 --> 00:03:11.280
path both with the body and the arms and

00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:13.890
how to control the face with the hands

00:03:13.890 --> 00:03:16.709
it ends up being about you know a

00:03:16.709 --> 00:03:19.500
handful of very key movements and so

00:03:19.500 --> 00:03:20.940
that's what I've tried to break the the

00:03:20.940 --> 00:03:23.670
golf swing down to you can do as much or

00:03:23.670 --> 00:03:25.470
as little of these movements as you need

00:03:25.470 --> 00:03:27.299
but you'll see how these movements

00:03:27.299 --> 00:03:29.700
contribute to both speed the path and

00:03:29.700 --> 00:03:31.859
the face which is ultimately how we

00:03:31.859 --> 00:03:34.859
develop that long consistent shot from

00:03:34.859 --> 00:03:38.180
either the fairway or off the tee
