I get many comments about a video I made several years ago named "Out Is Down". Here is another example of it -with Patrick Reed- showing how hand path and club path are different.
Lag of the clubhead is an important benefit to releasing the club late in the swing and with power. Drill 4 is one of the training protocols in allowing our body to do such a thing.
I have always talked about the similarity of baseball and golf motions. The only difference is the ball sits or is thrown in a different area relative to the ground level.
Many people talk about Mac Ogrady in awe with regards to his swing and teaching philosophy. It is really no different to what I teach. This video shows him talking about what equates to drill 1- 2 and 3.
Getting the shoulders to turn correctly pays huge dividends for the direction the arms and club move and how the body works. Proper sequence is everything. Watch to learn the desired shoulder movement.
Throwing the club away from the body in the transition of the golf swing is one of the largest causes of poor ball striking and swing path. How can a golfer stop that?
