The two sides of sequencing are getting the body to lead the downswing or to have the arms lag the club behind the body longer. If one is not working, you can work on the other end of the spectrum. The body leading often has a feeling of the hips moving sooner, more, or earlier. This can also feel like the core is rotating, which is more of a feeling of the belt or belly button feel. With the arms, the common feels that keep the arms behind longer are the feeling of the lead shoulder blade high or pinning the arm more across the chest or the trail arm feeling more connected, the trail shoulder blade back and down, the trail wrist more extended, or the trail arm in more of an external rotation feel.

This drill is connecting the two sides of sequencing. So golfers
1
00:00:08.600 --> 00:00:12.100
are always trying to get into a
2
00:00:11.100 --> 00:00:14.800
better impact position. One of
3
00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:17.600
the common things that I'll hear or either. Oh, you
4
00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:21.400
know, I really need to get my body more open or I
5
00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:23.700
need to get my hands more ahead that
6
00:00:23.700 --> 00:00:26.100
I'm just kind of stalling and throwing with my
7
00:00:26.100 --> 00:00:29.200
arms. Well, there's two sides to that
8
00:00:29.200 --> 00:00:32.200
equation. So if you're working on one and it's not working you can always
9
00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:35.400
work on the other ultimately you'll probably have a feeling of
10
00:00:35.400 --> 00:00:38.700
one from each side and they'll blend together. The
11
00:00:38.700 --> 00:00:41.400
two sides are basically getting my body to lead
12
00:00:41.400 --> 00:00:44.700
longer or feeling like my arms
13
00:00:44.700 --> 00:00:47.600
keep the club back longer. It's the
14
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:48.200
same relationship.
15
00:00:49.400 --> 00:00:52.200
If I get into this kind of
16
00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:55.600
impact position and then I was to just stand up
17
00:00:55.600 --> 00:00:58.500
and undo some of that rotation. The club is way
18
00:00:58.500 --> 00:01:01.400
back here. So if my
19
00:01:02.400 --> 00:01:05.200
My mind's concept or my brains concept is that the
20
00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:08.200
club is going to be like this at impact? Well, there's
21
00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:11.300
no way I could get my body to be open in order
22
00:01:11.300 --> 00:01:14.300
to get my body to be open. I have to have a feeling of the
23
00:01:14.300 --> 00:01:17.300
arms being more behind or the club being more behind
24
00:01:17.300 --> 00:01:20.200
that often happens for either feeling like the left
25
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:23.300
arm is a little bit more across or high kind of blocking because
26
00:01:23.300 --> 00:01:26.300
if this arm pulls down that tends to bring the club
27
00:01:26.300 --> 00:01:29.100
more in front of my chest or this will feel like the
28
00:01:29.100 --> 00:01:32.500
right arm is more in or the right wrist is
29
00:01:32.500 --> 00:01:35.300
in more extension kind of more of that shot put
30
00:01:35.300 --> 00:01:37.900
feel where the club is back sort of like this.
31
00:01:38.700 --> 00:01:41.200
But if I'm doing this and then my body
32
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:45.000
tends to solve then I need to go at more the complementary piece
33
00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.500
which the complementary piece. So the arms
34
00:01:47.500 --> 00:01:50.500
being back is if the arms are back now if
35
00:01:50.500 --> 00:01:53.300
I turn my lower body and my belly
36
00:01:53.300 --> 00:01:56.300
button and my chest, but my shoulders are still
37
00:01:56.300 --> 00:02:00.000
square. If I turn my body that brings those
38
00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:02.700
arms that are behind me to the
39
00:02:02.700 --> 00:02:03.100
golf ball.
40
00:02:03.900 --> 00:02:06.500
So if that's the case, then I have to feel more
41
00:02:06.500 --> 00:02:09.200
the arms are staying back but the hips and
42
00:02:09.200 --> 00:02:13.300
the body are pointing more towards the Target in addition
43
00:02:13.300 --> 00:02:16.300
as they're pointing more towards the target. They're gonna
44
00:02:16.300 --> 00:02:19.500
be going more into the side Bend and ultimately into this extension
45
00:02:19.500 --> 00:02:22.300
on the way through if I don't have
46
00:02:22.300 --> 00:02:25.500
either of those pieces, they're probably not
47
00:02:25.500 --> 00:02:29.200
going to work in in isolation. So when
48
00:02:28.200 --> 00:02:31.500
I do these Merry-Go-Round drills some
49
00:02:31.500 --> 00:02:34.500
days, I'll feel more like the arms or pinned and
50
00:02:34.500 --> 00:02:37.200
or behind and some days. I'll feel
51
00:02:37.200 --> 00:02:40.600
more like a stretch on this side or this lead
52
00:02:40.600 --> 00:02:43.400
hip is turned or something relating to getting the
53
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:44.800
body going soon. So
54
00:02:45.700 --> 00:02:48.500
today if I was to do a nine to three, I'm going
55
00:02:48.500 --> 00:02:51.800
to feel that combination mostly of
56
00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:54.200
that left side. That's what I was feeling today. But I'm gonna
57
00:02:54.200 --> 00:02:57.300
add a little bit of a
58
00:02:57.300 --> 00:03:00.500
feeling of the arms keeping the club back in lag.
59
00:03:01.900 --> 00:03:04.400
A little bit longer and so that one I felt
60
00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:07.400
like I was my body pulling away from my arms, but
61
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:10.200
some days I'm gonna feel more the arms working back.
62
00:03:10.200 --> 00:03:10.600
So
63
00:03:11.600 --> 00:03:14.900
If you're if you're struggling with seeing your
64
00:03:14.900 --> 00:03:17.400
body open at impact
65
00:03:17.400 --> 00:03:20.300
and you're seeing more of these arms kind
66
00:03:20.300 --> 00:03:23.400
of throwing you have two different directions. You can go either work on
67
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:26.600
getting the pivot better getting the art the body to lead.
68
00:03:26.600 --> 00:03:29.200
But in order to do so, you're gonna also have to feel like
69
00:03:29.200 --> 00:03:32.500
the arms stay back. Usually one thought from each of
70
00:03:32.500 --> 00:03:36.400
those two buckets will ultimately help you decode or
71
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:40.000
break down what's causing you to have more of this early release
72
00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:42.000
all not, you know
73
00:03:42.200 --> 00:03:45.300
more of the amateur body impact position. So having one
74
00:03:45.300 --> 00:03:48.400
from each will ultimately give you a pretty good feeling that you can build
75
00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:51.100
into a little bit better Mary go around
76
00:03:51.100 --> 00:03:54.500
or a little bit better impact position. So don't get too frustrated. If
77
00:03:54.500 --> 00:03:57.300
you're struggling with one area or the other probably gonna
78
00:03:57.300 --> 00:04:01.000
have to go back and forth and find a couple feels for the arms. Hopefully just
79
00:04:00.300 --> 00:04:03.800
one couple feels for the body again, ultimately.
80
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:06.400
Hopefully just one and then trying to
81
00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:09.200
execute the two of those feels together like
82
00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:13.400
more like that and that will ultimately help
83
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:17.000
you build your tour quality
84
00:04:16.700 --> 00:04:18.000
impact position.
