This concept video is connecting the wipe to supination. Um,

1
00:00:08.860 --> 00:00:11.440
so I had a member question come in about, um,

2
00:00:11.620 --> 00:00:16.440
having some trouble reconciling the wipe of the trail arm,

3
00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:19.040
kind of working more across the body, um,

4
00:00:19.060 --> 00:00:22.920
and the supination feeling like that lead arm rotates. Uh, his,

5
00:00:22.980 --> 00:00:27.240
his take was essentially that that lead arm rotation is gonna tend to cause that

6
00:00:27.240 --> 00:00:29.160
trail arm to go into more rotation,

7
00:00:29.540 --> 00:00:32.600
and that white movement would feel like it's going to, um,

8
00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:34.520
kind of hold the arm off. The,

9
00:00:34.540 --> 00:00:39.320
the crux of that is where you're feeling the rotation and what's happening at

10
00:00:39.320 --> 00:00:43.880
the shoulder blades. So these two moves balance each other, um,

11
00:00:44.220 --> 00:00:49.160
in a sense that the wipe helps create shalene and open the

12
00:00:49.160 --> 00:00:53.680
face, and the supination helps close the face while, uh,

13
00:00:54.230 --> 00:00:59.080
lengthening the radius or, or moving the path a little bit further, um,

14
00:00:59.270 --> 00:01:00.103
into, out.

15
00:01:00.340 --> 00:01:04.920
So they compliment each other as long as they're done in the appropriate zones.

16
00:01:05.300 --> 00:01:09.400
The, the wipe is more of a shoulder blade and kind of like, um,

17
00:01:09.580 --> 00:01:12.800
inside the armpit, or I talk about the sur anterior. Um,

18
00:01:12.800 --> 00:01:16.280
but it's more of a shoulder movement where the,

19
00:01:16.460 --> 00:01:20.600
the arm is working across this way instead of going into, um,

20
00:01:21.320 --> 00:01:25.000
internal rotation and protraction and flying away from the body like that.

21
00:01:25.220 --> 00:01:29.440
So this, the white movement can feel more dis or more connected. Um,

22
00:01:29.440 --> 00:01:34.280
and it can also feel more like the arms are doing less and I'm hitting

23
00:01:34.300 --> 00:01:37.600
it more with my core and my hips. Now, as I said,

24
00:01:38.060 --> 00:01:41.080
if I do that on paper, if I don't really,

25
00:01:41.410 --> 00:01:44.720
especially if I kind of maintain some of the, uh,

26
00:01:44.970 --> 00:01:48.280
connection in the trail hand, if I do that,

27
00:01:48.790 --> 00:01:53.160
then oftentimes the ball's gonna go off to the right unless I,

28
00:01:53.660 --> 00:01:56.400
um, made a forearm rotation.

29
00:01:56.460 --> 00:02:00.560
Now that forearm rotation can be challenging to just do, uh,

30
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:03.520
with the trail hand, especially if I really, um,

31
00:02:03.830 --> 00:02:07.040
kind of like overdo the body rotation,

32
00:02:07.420 --> 00:02:11.960
it will tend to have a little bit more of a, uh, open club face situation.

33
00:02:13.140 --> 00:02:17.360
So the way that I'm going to balance it is by getting some forearm supination.

34
00:02:17.660 --> 00:02:21.960
Now, I don't want to confuse that with going into, um, internal rotation.

35
00:02:22.500 --> 00:02:26.240
The shoulder will go into internal rotation, but ideally, uh,

36
00:02:26.310 --> 00:02:30.280
kind of from a pattern wise, we're gonna get the forearm to rotate first.

37
00:02:30.860 --> 00:02:31.880
You can see when I do this,

38
00:02:32.140 --> 00:02:35.200
the elbow is staying pointing at the target as the forearm rotates,

39
00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:37.560
and then as it gets closer to its end range motion,

40
00:02:37.580 --> 00:02:39.680
the whole thing will rotate together. Um,

41
00:02:40.140 --> 00:02:43.160
but for many golfers feeling, uh,

42
00:02:43.860 --> 00:02:47.800
it will feel like it's primarily a forearm movement and not really a shoulder

43
00:02:48.120 --> 00:02:50.000
movement. But for a lot of golfers, it's actually,

44
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:54.720
it's challenging to disconnect the two. Um, oftentimes I'll,

45
00:02:54.820 --> 00:02:56.280
in kind of like a teaching phase,

46
00:02:56.550 --> 00:03:01.400
I'll have you grab one to the elbow just like this and then rotate

47
00:03:01.710 --> 00:03:06.000
that forearm, kind of like that. Now, if I did that with a club,

48
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:10.500
if I held onto that forearm and then let the, or sorry,

49
00:03:10.500 --> 00:03:13.140
I held onto the elbow and let the forearm rotate,

50
00:03:13.140 --> 00:03:17.380
especially if I'm rotating my body, you'll see that as I'm making contact, um,

51
00:03:17.380 --> 00:03:20.900
the elbow stays pointing a little bit more towards the target compared if it

52
00:03:20.900 --> 00:03:23.580
rotated like this. Yes, if I lose that,

53
00:03:23.890 --> 00:03:27.260
then this arm is typically gonna get on top and it would be hard to create the

54
00:03:27.260 --> 00:03:31.100
white. But when the elbow is, when the shoulder is more in this position,

55
00:03:31.100 --> 00:03:32.060
so the elbow's pointing out,

56
00:03:32.060 --> 00:03:36.860
you'll see that actually encourages the feel of that right shoulder working a

57
00:03:36.860 --> 00:03:39.940
little bit more underneath. So in a nine to three,

58
00:03:40.380 --> 00:03:41.940
I could isolate either one of those.

59
00:03:42.140 --> 00:03:46.980
I could feel either the shoulder working the right shoulder down and around and

60
00:03:46.980 --> 00:03:49.500
through kind of staying connected. And I,

61
00:03:49.640 --> 00:03:54.500
or I could emphasize more the forearm rotation or

62
00:03:54.660 --> 00:03:56.300
supination, and you can see if I do both of them,

63
00:03:56.690 --> 00:04:00.300
then I'm gonna get a very shallow bottom of the swing, um,

64
00:04:00.450 --> 00:04:04.580
with kind of a widening radius and a club face that's, uh, rotating.

65
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:07.420
So, uh, if you're,

66
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:13.340
if you look at video and you tend to have kind of more of a scoop here at the

67
00:04:13.340 --> 00:04:14.220
bottom, um,

68
00:04:14.330 --> 00:04:18.740
that could be a sign of either needing more s of the wipe or more of the

69
00:04:18.860 --> 00:04:21.460
supination. Um, but more likely it's both. Uh,

70
00:04:21.850 --> 00:04:24.940
usually you'll have one that is kind of like more dominant and that's the one

71
00:04:24.940 --> 00:04:26.700
that your brain can go in on.

72
00:04:26.880 --> 00:04:31.620
You can either feel more of the lead arm kind of getting into this

73
00:04:31.990 --> 00:04:34.700
kinda like hit position right here,

74
00:04:34.760 --> 00:04:38.900
or you'll feel more like this side comes through and there's just a little bit

75
00:04:39.250 --> 00:04:42.660
more of a release. But these two actually compliment each other. Um,

76
00:04:43.200 --> 00:04:45.540
the only way they fight each other is if you're doing it from the wrong spot,

77
00:04:45.540 --> 00:04:47.820
if you're doing it more from the shoulders, um,

78
00:04:47.970 --> 00:04:52.780
instead of from kind of the body on the wipe side and the forearm on the

79
00:04:52.860 --> 00:04:57.460
supination side. So one more little,

80
00:04:58.840 --> 00:05:02.100
little demo if we get really good, uh,

81
00:05:02.650 --> 00:05:04.940
feeling of wipe and supination,

82
00:05:10.320 --> 00:05:11.060
pretty solid.
