The next one we're going to do my view of is the delivery and go.
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:08,000
So this is one of my all-time favorite drills.
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:12,000
Fixed is a lot of issues or it should say reveals a lot of issues.
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:17,000
So I'm going to get in this delivery position, which you all know from that delivery video.
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,000
So there's delivery position.
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:23,000
Now from here, all I'm going to do is rotate my body and extend my arms.
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,000
I'll do that again.
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,000
So we're in our normal setup position.
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:38,000
There's delivery position when my hands even with the golf ball and now as I release just like so,
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,000
it's going to kind of look like that.
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:42,000
Just like that.
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:49,000
So this gives a great way of working on the kind of movements of the body in the hands during
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:50,000
the release phase.
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,000
Because what'll happen is a lot of golfers doing this delivery go.
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,000
What want to get the hands back like so?
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,000
So right before they swing, they'll move their hands back and then they'll release like this and
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,000
they'll tend to hit it fat kind of like so.
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:12,000
That's a timing issue more than anything because what we want to have happen is from here,
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,000
you're just going to let your body rotate.
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,000
So your hands are going to look.
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:21,000
You can see how far compared to the golf ball or from my perspective, my hands look like they're
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:25,000
head of the golf ball but you can see from the face on view that that looks relatively normal.
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:32,000
And as long as my hands continue rotating with my body as they release, so I get to that delivery position
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:38,000
and then go as long as they continue working in, I'm not going to hit it super, super fat.
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:47,000
The other option that a lot of golfers will do is they will stand up, which counter or which
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:53,000
works with this kind of flip or extension or cast release.
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:57,000
So basically from here they will stand up and release it more like so.
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:04,000
That can work with the short irons that can work up to about a seven iron.
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:08,000
When you start getting into longer clubs, that's going to give you major contact, major
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,000
power source problems. So we want to get that out of our system as quickly as we can.
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:18,000
So we're going to go delivery and go just like so and then just like that.
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:25,000
So hopefully that gives you a good perspective of my view of the release and then a cup can help you
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:30,000
overcome some of the visual barriers you may be having in trying to train these movements.
