Setting The Club Drill Circuit

In this drill circuit video, I walk you through a simple series of drills to help you chuck the pieces of the setting the club into one pattern.

  1. Backswing Shoulder Plane
  2. Jazzy Jeff Move
  3. Right Shoulder Flexibility
  4. Club in the Bottom of the Sternum

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
In this drill circuit video, we're going to talk about setting the club.

00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,000
So this is the second phase, or completing the backswing.

00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,000
The drills that we're going to do in this circuit are going to be the backswing shoulder

00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:15,000
plane, and we're going to do the jazzy Jeff move, and then we're going to look at the

00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,000
right shoulder flexibility.

00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,000
And we're going to do one drill for the takeaway, look at the club in the bottom of the

00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:26,000
sternum, and then we'll do a drill of blending the transition into the setting the club,

00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:30,000
or the takeaway into setting the club.

00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,000
So first one we're going to do is backswing shoulder plane.

00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:36,000
So I'm going to take the club, place it across my shoulders, and I'm going to make a full

00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:41,000
turn trying to point this club somewhere down towards the golf ball.

00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:47,000
This just gives my eyes a visual as to how I'm going to look and how it's going to feel

00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:53,000
in my body when I make my full shoulder turn or make my full pivot kind of like so.

00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:59,000
Next one we're going to do is the right arm jazzy Jeff, which is basically give the guy

00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:07,000
the high five it's going to come up in front of you out like so, up and out, up and out.

00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,000
Up and out.

00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:13,000
So now I'm going to try combining those two, so I'm going to do backswing shoulder plane,

00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:18,000
up and out backswing shoulder plane, jazzy Jeff.

00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,000
Now holding this position, I'm going to bring my left arm across, okay, that's where

00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,000
I want to kind of feel.

00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,000
And that feels like it's a little bit more wider compared to what I was just doing when

00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,000
I was warming up.

00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,000
That's great.

00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:34,000
So then we've got to look at blending the two or let's first look at the right shoulder

00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,000
flexibility.

00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:43,000
So the more that I can rotate this way, like so, the more that that shoulder is going

00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,000
to allow me to stay in the posture.

00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,000
If my arm only goes to here, then during this jazzy Jeff move, it's going to feel like

00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,000
my shoulder is a little bit more back like so.

00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:58,000
But ideally, you're going to let this rotate as if we were doing the jazzy Jeff move.

00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,000
So now let's blend it to.

00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,000
So we're going to do a couple just to remind, okay, this is where the jazzy Jeff is going

00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,000
to start.

00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,000
So I'm going to go to here, jazzy Jeff.

00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,000
I'm going to go to here, jazzy Jeff.

00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:13,000
Now I'm going to grip it and I'm going to try to blend those two movements together.

00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:14,000
Good.

00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,000
Now, like, because I was focusing so much on my arms, I lost a little bit.

00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,000
That was a better shoulder plane.

00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:32,000
So by practicing these moves and then stepping up and taking a swing, hit a ball, you can

00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:36,000
give your brain a whole lot of information and have quality repetition.

00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,000
Instead of just standing there and beating ball after ball, where your brain is not actually

00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,000
going off.
