In this video, help clarify how the extension of the arms creates rotation. Brian Manzella was the first I've heard to describe it as a "tumble" and one of our members asked for a clarification of when it starts. From a body point of view, the tumble is going to be a result of extending your arms from a rotated position. The rotation is largely going to come from lead arm pronation during transition. The Zorro Loops drill helps you use this move to help feel the blend from pronating to supinating.

00:00:01.220 --> 00:00:03.840
this video is answering a member
00:00:03.840 --> 00:00:06.330
question about the timing of when you're
00:00:06.330 --> 00:00:08.670
going to let the shaft kind of tumble or
00:00:08.670 --> 00:00:11.400
basically the timing of when you're
00:00:11.400 --> 00:00:16.049
going to apply this movement so I I try
00:00:16.049 --> 00:00:17.970
to emphasize in the Zoro swings and if
00:00:17.970 --> 00:00:20.820
you're if you're unfamiliar with that I
00:00:20.820 --> 00:00:22.680
recommend you go and check that one out
00:00:22.680 --> 00:00:25.170
but the timing of the tumble is
00:00:25.170 --> 00:00:27.060
basically going to be as you're
00:00:27.060 --> 00:00:28.710
extending your arms out during the
00:00:28.710 --> 00:00:30.900
release so during transition you're
00:00:30.900 --> 00:00:33.030
going to have this kind of reverse
00:00:33.030 --> 00:00:35.160
stumble that's built into Zoro swings
00:00:35.160 --> 00:00:37.559
this reverse tumble is eventually going
00:00:37.559 --> 00:00:40.950
to kind of create some stretch in some
00:00:40.950 --> 00:00:42.390
of my muscles that I'm not going to be
00:00:42.390 --> 00:00:43.980
able to hold back and I'm going to use
00:00:43.980 --> 00:00:46.590
that momentum or use that stretch to
00:00:46.590 --> 00:00:48.750
then create the tumble so this would be
00:00:48.750 --> 00:00:50.190
the tumble startsnow
00:00:50.190 --> 00:00:53.550
tumble is right there where that happens
00:00:53.550 --> 00:00:56.129
in the golf swing is I've dropped and
00:00:56.129 --> 00:00:57.719
kind of gotten this club on a shallow
00:00:57.719 --> 00:00:59.760
plane I'm exaggerating it for this video
00:00:59.760 --> 00:01:01.649
so I've dropped and got this club on the
00:01:01.649 --> 00:01:03.920
shallow plane and then if I was just
00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:06.390
continually let this club swing along
00:01:06.390 --> 00:01:08.970
that orbit it would probably swing with
00:01:08.970 --> 00:01:11.189
the club something out like that and
00:01:11.189 --> 00:01:12.540
that wouldn't work too well it would
00:01:12.540 --> 00:01:14.040
tend to leave the ball off to the right
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:16.799
so eventually what's going to happen is
00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:19.350
I have to then get the club coming back
00:01:19.350 --> 00:01:22.170
out in front of me or use that little
00:01:22.170 --> 00:01:24.720
Zorro move to tumble the club to help
00:01:24.720 --> 00:01:28.380
square the face so we'll show it one
00:01:28.380 --> 00:01:29.040
more time
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:31.470
actually we'll show it kind of in its
00:01:31.470 --> 00:01:33.540
real phase so once we're right in about
00:01:33.540 --> 00:01:36.930
here as we go to extend there's this
00:01:36.930 --> 00:01:39.930
continued rotation but the rotation is
00:01:39.930 --> 00:01:42.659
happening because I'm extending my arms
00:01:42.659 --> 00:01:45.630
from a rotated position it's not that I
00:01:45.630 --> 00:01:46.759
just have them here and I'm just
00:01:46.759 --> 00:01:49.680
magically rotating them like so I'm not
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:52.680
just trying to kind of whip my forearms
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:54.270
one on top of the other but because
00:01:54.270 --> 00:01:57.299
they're rotated when I go to extend them
00:01:57.299 --> 00:01:59.250
it's not just going to extend like so
00:01:59.250 --> 00:02:01.860
I'm going to allow them to rotate with
00:02:01.860 --> 00:02:04.979
the mass of the club so hope that helps
00:02:04.979 --> 00:02:07.110
clear it up the timing of the tumble is
00:02:07.110 --> 00:02:09.300
going to be somewhere in here if you're
00:02:09.300 --> 00:02:11.640
doing it too soon you'll tend to hit
00:02:11.640 --> 00:02:12.500
more poles
00:02:12.500 --> 00:02:15.200
if you're doing it too late you'll tend
00:02:15.200 --> 00:02:17.870
to hit shanks or blocks but if you're
00:02:17.870 --> 00:02:19.340
doing it just right you tend to hit that
00:02:19.340 --> 00:02:22.910
nice little penetrating draw which we
00:02:22.910 --> 00:02:25.670
feel is one of the more effective ball
00:02:25.670 --> 00:02:27.680
flights you can control your body
00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:29.030
rotation and hit a little fade with it
00:02:29.030 --> 00:02:31.250
too if you want but it's going to be
00:02:31.250 --> 00:02:32.990
more of a penetrating and powerful ball
00:02:32.990 --> 00:02:34.970
flight with clean contact and that's
00:02:34.970 --> 00:02:36.380
ultimately what's going to give us the
00:02:36.380 --> 00:02:37.910
power in the consistency that we're
00:02:37.910 --> 00:02:40.300
striving for
