Combo - Delivery And Go With Delivery Pump

Combining drills into a drill sequence is great for learning how movements relate to each other. A common combination that I use in a circuit is delivery-and-go with delivery-pump. This helps establish the delivery position as an anchor for the mid-point of the downswing. This combination is incredibly useful for golfers who cast, early release the trail arm, square the face with internal rotation of the trail arm, or golfers who early extend.

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
This drill is combining delivery and go with the delivery pump.

00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:11,000
So frequently I'll combine drills in order to kind of give the brain two different ends of

00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:18,000
a movement, work on how they relate to each other, ultimately help turn a specific drill

00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,000
into more of a playing field.

00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:27,000
So one of the common ones that I'll use is using a delivery and go drill with a delivery

00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,000
and pump drill.

00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:35,000
So basically one of the common times that I'll use this is if we're doing delivery position.

00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,000
So we're working on either having a little bit more white, we're working on the timing

00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,000
of the trail arm, we're working on early extension.

00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:49,000
There's kind of this midway point between the transition and the release that can be

00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:53,000
a good little anchor for the brain to build the pattern around when you're practicing.

00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:59,000
So frequently what I'll do is I'll let's say we're working on that delivery position.

00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:04,000
So I'll do a handful of delivery and go and I'll just get used to what it's going

00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:09,000
to be like to make contact with the ground or the ball when my elbow is a little bit

00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:15,000
more in front of my body instead of straight to my side if I'm used to making contact

00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,000
kind of like that.

00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:23,000
So okay, I get this feeling, get into that position and I hit some balls, kind of feeling,

00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,000
the timing, feeling that delivery and go move.

00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,000
Well now I might have a little bit of trouble taking that to a full swing.

00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:35,000
So then I would go to the opposite end and I would do some of the delivery pump.

00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:41,000
So I'd go up to the top of the swing and then I'd work down into that delivery position

00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,000
and then feel the delivery and go from there.

00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:48,000
So sometimes working on both ends of the movement with that little reference in between

00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,000
helps the brain turn it into a whole combination.

00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:58,000
So this is one of my most common patterns to use either let's do a little release, let's

00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:03,000
do a little transition and then let's do one where we try to build them together.

00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,000
The times where this works really well are if you have an early straightening of that

00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:14,000
right arm, if you tend to have a little bit more of a forward lunge or the upper body

00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,000
tends to kind of lean towards the target to start the downswing.

00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:25,000
This delivery and go and delivery pump can work well there or if you have early extension.

00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,000
So if my body is standing up my arm is going to have to straighten to adjust for either

00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,000
the ribcage getting in the way or the shoulder being further away from the golf ball

00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,000
that you're used to.

00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:41,000
So you basically would take three balls to do kind of one rep one set.

00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:48,000
You would do one where you focus on the delivery and go drill and then another one where

00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:55,000
you focus on the delivery pump and then the last one where you would focus on more of the

00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:00,000
feeling of integrating those two into your stock normal swing.

00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:09,000
So demonstrating here's my delivery and then from here I'm just going to go not too

00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:16,000
bad now from here I'm going to do a few of these kind of delivery pumps good and then

00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:24,000
I'm going to make one swing trying to kind of combine the two of those into a more of a

00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,000
playing feel giving me some sensory awareness as far as what my elbow might be doing in

00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,000
this way.

00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:35,000
So use that recipe if you're struggling with getting the arms too soon not enough power

00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,000
from the body early extension.

00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:44,000
This is a great combo pattern for working on kind of getting a good playing feel but

00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,000
breaking this wing into its two major components and then seeing how they fit together.
