00:00:05.100 --> 00:00:08.700
This content video is hands forward hands up and out. So

2
00:00:08.700 --> 00:00:11.300
this is connecting shaft lean and

3
00:00:11.600 --> 00:00:14.100
ulnar deviation. A lot of golfers who struggle with

4
00:00:14.100 --> 00:00:18.700
getting shaft lean also struggle with getting older deviation and it's

5
00:00:18.700 --> 00:00:21.200
kind of working on your balance of Steeps and

6
00:00:21.200 --> 00:00:24.200
shallows as it relates to the moment of impact. So it

7
00:00:24.200 --> 00:00:27.800
kind of ties together a few different kind of subcategories for

8
00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:31.000
us. So if you're working on getting shaft

9
00:00:30.200 --> 00:00:33.300
lean one thing that I emphasize a lot

10
00:00:33.300 --> 00:00:34.900
is if you

11
00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:40.500
From the down the line camera if I just move the grip across

12
00:00:39.500 --> 00:00:42.300
the shaft. So if I just move it

13
00:00:42.300 --> 00:00:45.700
straight forward like this, it feels like it gets really low

14
00:00:45.700 --> 00:00:49.000
and I feel like I'm gonna get Diggy there. What would

15
00:00:48.300 --> 00:00:51.600
actually feel more comfortable is if as it

16
00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:54.600
goes across it also goes up and

17
00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:55.500
a little bit more out.

18
00:00:56.600 --> 00:00:59.100
So the the trajectory is kind

19
00:00:59.100 --> 00:01:02.400
of creating more space like this as it's getting ahead.

20
00:01:03.500 --> 00:01:05.300
from the Steep shallow standpoint

21
00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:09.300
When the hands go down that creates more of a

22
00:01:09.300 --> 00:01:12.400
steep and when the hands go backward

23
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:16.000
that creates more of a shallow the opposite would be as the

24
00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:18.200
hands go forward that creates more of

25
00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:22.000
a steep and then as the hands go up that creates more of a shallow. So

26
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:24.500
if I just get my hands Way Forward

27
00:01:24.500 --> 00:01:27.200
the club would have a tendency to really dig into the

28
00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:30.300
ground. But as my hands get more up

29
00:01:30.300 --> 00:01:33.400
and out as they get forward. I get

30
00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:36.500
shaft lean without getting really Diggy contact. So

31
00:01:36.500 --> 00:01:39.600
I'm able to still get a shallow bottom of the swing just

32
00:01:39.600 --> 00:01:41.500
with the low point being a little bit more forward.

33
00:01:42.600 --> 00:01:45.500
Another way to think of this is as we're relating

34
00:01:45.500 --> 00:01:48.600
this the low Point low Point can be thinking thought

35
00:01:48.600 --> 00:01:51.400
of as width as well. In order to have the club head

36
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:55.200
traveling downward through impact. I want

37
00:01:54.200 --> 00:01:57.600
to have the club working away from me as

38
00:01:57.600 --> 00:02:00.600
the club is working back up towards me. It's going

39
00:02:00.600 --> 00:02:03.400
to have a tendency to come away from the ground.

40
00:02:04.100 --> 00:02:07.200
So in order to have the club continually working away from

41
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:10.800
me. I'm going to have the club reaching its widest

42
00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:11.400
point well.

43
00:02:12.200 --> 00:02:15.600
When this is hinged down like this that is nowhere near

44
00:02:15.600 --> 00:02:19.600
as wide as if I have the club further

45
00:02:18.600 --> 00:02:21.800
away from me like this. So if

46
00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:23.600
I think of let's say

47
00:02:24.500 --> 00:02:28.000
if I just think of this kind of ulnar deviation timing perhaps

48
00:02:27.500 --> 00:02:30.200
this is impact and as it's going through

49
00:02:30.200 --> 00:02:33.300
it's continuing to work away. If I was to bring my hands

50
00:02:33.300 --> 00:02:36.400
just straight across then what would happen is I'm not actually

51
00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:39.900
increasing that the club's not working away. It's just

52
00:02:39.900 --> 00:02:42.000
working across more like that.

53
00:02:43.100 --> 00:02:46.500
so I tie this together a lot with kind of an impact

54
00:02:46.500 --> 00:02:49.300
fixed type feel so more of a

55
00:02:49.300 --> 00:02:51.200
at-home visual where

56
00:02:52.100 --> 00:02:56.500
Getting into this kind of impact position where the

57
00:02:56.500 --> 00:02:59.000
hands have gone forward and that left arm is kind of

58
00:02:59.200 --> 00:03:02.700
gone more up that helps with getting the alignment of the the

59
00:03:02.700 --> 00:03:05.500
forearms to be a little bit more shallow. If it just goes

60
00:03:05.500 --> 00:03:08.200
across oftentimes this right arm gets really

61
00:03:08.200 --> 00:03:11.300
on top and I start getting into an impact position there.

62
00:03:11.300 --> 00:03:14.200
So that impact position is going

63
00:03:14.200 --> 00:03:17.800
to be more Diggy more more pull bias more tow bias.

64
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:20.300
And actually what happens is when you're in that position

65
00:03:20.300 --> 00:03:23.100
and the club passes you'll look at

66
00:03:23.100 --> 00:03:26.900
video and you'll say wow. I don't really have any more shaft lean where

67
00:03:26.900 --> 00:03:29.900
if you're trying to get it up but staying down

68
00:03:29.900 --> 00:03:32.600
in your posture that kind of creates some

69
00:03:32.600 --> 00:03:35.500
of the slack to be able to get

70
00:03:35.500 --> 00:03:37.600
that shaft lean on impact, so

71
00:03:38.500 --> 00:03:41.400
Two-bit two major causes of creating Chef lien

72
00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:44.200
one is proper release hand motion and then

73
00:03:44.200 --> 00:03:47.500
two is kind of having your body in more of its

74
00:03:47.500 --> 00:03:50.200
impact line or or covering the ball.

75
00:03:50.200 --> 00:03:53.300
So if you're struggling with shaft lean, but your body is on top

76
00:03:53.300 --> 00:03:56.300
perhaps this will give you some ideas. You can work it into

77
00:03:56.300 --> 00:04:00.000
any of your nine to three or any of your follow-through drills.

78
00:03:59.600 --> 00:04:02.600
We're basically you're working on that

79
00:04:02.600 --> 00:04:05.900
feeling of up out and forward

80
00:04:05.900 --> 00:04:08.700
and that will help keep the arm extension longer

81
00:04:08.700 --> 00:04:11.500
into the follow through where this is going down. You

82
00:04:11.500 --> 00:04:14.500
will tend to pass the club a little bit quicker

83
00:04:14.500 --> 00:04:18.000
and you'll tend to have more of this narrow finish not ideal

84
00:04:17.200 --> 00:04:20.100
for controlling low point with your full swing.

85
00:04:21.100 --> 00:04:24.300
All right. So quick little demo. We'll do this as more of an impact fixed style.

86
00:04:24.300 --> 00:04:27.300
So I'm going to go impact or set up and then

87
00:04:27.300 --> 00:04:30.100
I'm going to go impact and now I'm going to freeze my

88
00:04:30.100 --> 00:04:33.200
body and impact and I'm going to try to make a swing

89
00:04:33.200 --> 00:04:36.700
getting back into that position. Now don't be discouraged. If

90
00:04:36.700 --> 00:04:39.500
you have trouble making contact from that preset. I

91
00:04:39.500 --> 00:04:42.800
actually usually have a lot of trouble getting back

92
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:46.000
to that position if I start there so oftentimes

93
00:04:45.300 --> 00:04:48.100
what I'll do is here set up. This is

94
00:04:48.100 --> 00:04:51.700
where I want to get to an impact back to set up and then try to

95
00:04:51.700 --> 00:04:54.400
get back to their and that felt a little bit more

96
00:04:54.400 --> 00:04:57.700
kind of natural. So if you're really

97
00:04:57.700 --> 00:05:00.400
struggling with shaft lean more of

98
00:05:00.400 --> 00:05:03.500
a scoop style release don't just think hands forward

99
00:05:03.500 --> 00:05:06.400
think a little bit more hands up and

100
00:05:06.400 --> 00:05:09.400
out. That'll get the shaft feeling like it's more vertical but

101
00:05:09.400 --> 00:05:12.200
that more vertical shaft is really just widening the radius which

102
00:05:12.200 --> 00:05:13.600
helps you move the low point forward.
