00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,000
This drill is called head cover swings and this is to get the feeling of when the arm should get in place or when the arm should

00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,000
Activate in the downswing so

00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:16,000
You may have been pointed this because you're looking for a little bit more power or because you have the tendency of the club to

00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,000
Come over the top or you have a hard time getting an arm extension in the follow-through

00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:25,000
But either way it means that you're applying force with your arms too soon

00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,000
So what you're gonna do is you're gonna take a head cover or a sock if if

00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,000
If you have the

00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,000
Kind of the modern magnet head covers like I have on my driver

00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:40,000
They don't work very well for this particular drill so my three wood head cover has a little bit of a sock to it

00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,000
But a longer sock makes it even easier

00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:46,000
What you're going to do is you're going to take the head cover and you're gonna swing it

00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,000
Is the drill

00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,000
Okay, so here's what you're gonna learn from it

00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:58,000
If we slow it down you can start to become aware of the rhythm of when you're applying a force to it

00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,000
Right, it's it's kind of hard to tell but they're still a rhythm when I'm at a fast pace

00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000
I'm not just applying a constant force

00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:12,000
So if you slow it down enough what you'll see is I apply a force boom right there

00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:18,000
Boom right there so the thing is swinging the head cover swinging it gets to the point where it's further

00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,000
So away from me and then I take that momentum of the club swinging and I accelerate it

00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Where this shows up in the golf swing

00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:30,000
If you cast or if you apply force to the club early

00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,000
What it means is that when you come down you're applying force right away

00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,000
So I'm applying force when the head cover is still behind me and

00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,000
It'll make it swing funny. We're gonna do that in a second

00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:46,000
But what you want to practice doing is waiting until the club is the furthest point away from you

00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,000
Which would be somewhere around in here and then applying the force from your hands

00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:56,000
So it'll kind of feel like it falls through transition before you apply the force with your hands

00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:02,000
If you apply it early it would be as if I was trying to swing it

00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,000
You'll see it's kind of hard to do

00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:11,000
If I was trying to apply the force while it's still facing me but then kind of get the natural rhythm going

00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:16,000
It just doesn't work out very well the energy releases too soon and it doesn't make it all the way down to the golf ball

00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,000
So

00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:24,000
Grab ahead cover get the feeling of this timing of the of the force being applied and that'll help you a lot with

00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:30,000
Transferring energy into the golf club now if you start doing this and you start hitting the ball off to the right

00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Review the motorcycle and review the risk released stuff because you're probably

00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Instead of squaring the club with the motorcycle in a long the access so that you can transfer energy to the club

00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,000
You're probably squaring the club faced by releasing early

00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,000
So pay attention to that. Hopefully this will help you hit it long and straight
