00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,000
This drill is stabbed the wall.

00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:12,000
This drill is to help with golfers who tend to lose the delivery position, either from

00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:19,000
getting too steep from down the line or too outside this way, or more commonly I'll use

00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:24,000
this for golfers who are on plane, but the club is just way behind them.

00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,000
So it's behind that kind of leg checkpoint at Pipeirolo.

00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:34,000
So this usually is helpful for golfers who tend to get really active with their shoulders

00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,000
early in transition instead of using their hips and their core.

00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:43,000
So we're going to pretend that this is a wall instead of a chair, and I'm going to

00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:48,000
hold the club in a split grip kind of like this, and I'm going to slide up so I've

00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,000
got at least a few inches sticking out from my left hand.

00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:58,000
And now I'm going to get into a position where basically the club would hit the wall

00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,000
but my body wouldn't hit it at the same time.

00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000
So it's sticking out just a little bit further like this.

00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:10,000
So now I'm going to go up to the top and as I come down I'm just going to get my arm

00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:15,000
into a good delivery position kind of like this, and then I'm going to turn my body

00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,000
until the butt end of the club would hit the wall like this.

00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:24,000
And I want to feel like I'm kind of building up speed gradually into hitting the wall.

00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,000
So I'm not applying a lot of speed really quickly.

00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:34,000
I'm kind of building it and getting most of the speed right here at this kind of checkpoint.

00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:40,000
So if I'm contacting the wall like this then what's happening is I'm using more of my

00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,000
hips and my core to bring my arms into position.

00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:49,000
If I got outside with it you would see that I would hit the wall and more of an oblique

00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,000
angle like this.

00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,000
So I would kind of have a feel like that.

00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,000
Or if I was to throw it behind it would never hit the wall.

00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,000
It would stay behind me.

00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,000
What I would normally do in this wing is if it was way behind me like this I'd lunge

00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:09,000
into the wall instead of getting the arms in front in order to get the grip to touch

00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,000
the wall.

00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:15,000
This will help you feel that combination of staying centered with the upper body and a little

00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,000
bit more of this white movement with your arms and shoulders.

00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:26,000
So once I have this feeling I'm going to try and take that feeling to a golf shot.

00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:31,000
So now I'm going to try to feel like I get into this position during the downswing.

00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,000
And then from here I'm just going to extend those arms.

00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:42,000
So I like doing this as a pump drill after I've gotten this feeling of doing the wallwork

00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,000
a few times.

00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:48,000
So I'm pumping it into that position and then it basically becomes more of a delivery

00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:54,000
and go type movement where I'm in that position and I just let the arms release.

00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:59,000
This may take a feeling of softness in your shoulders especially if I'm used to really

00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,000
creating a lot of tension which often gets the club a little bit more behind you like

00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,000
this.

00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:11,000
So really good kind of overall drill for working on sequencing and delivery position.

00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:16,000
Then once you have a feeling of a good speed you can take it into a little bit more of

00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,000
a normal length swing.

00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,000
Feeling like I stabbed the wall and then released.

00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:29,000
So if you get a little early in transition, stabbing the wall can help you delay the arm

00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,000
action and lead your transition a little bit more with your core.
