What works in your long game can ruin your wedge play. In this lesson with Peter Finch, we discovered he was carrying his long game swing thoughts into his wedges — and it was killing his strike. Our fix? A move that feels completely wrong… but instantly improved his contact and consistency.
Not notice how the the height is down. We’re also gonna even notice this lead arm a little bit here and the shaft angle here. So from here, pivot looks really nice, tidy. It’s a shorter back swing. We can see as you swing down, you’ve got no problem shifting. If anything though, the lead knee really overtakes the lead shoulder at this stage. Look at where your your belt loops are relative to that. Your belt loops lower below that. Can you do the same feeling without going down? So, can you push into this leg? Okay. Without you doing this. So, can you do a swing where you still feel that the the leg is being pushed into but without the actual loss of height where we actually just go into this leg. So, you still feel I still want you to feel the pressure push into that leg without you actually like forcing it down. That’s nice. I think that’s that’s phenomenal to me. There’s a strike. Yeah. Little bit less interaction with the ground. 4.3 strike. I mean, you’re now the distance 120 and still spinning it like 10,000.

He still did it. But he never squatted like you pointed out. His knee flares slightly from that angle because of his turn. The only real deficiency is a slightly late and slight lack of hip turn. That's what forces the flare of the knee. Almost everyone with a great swing will do this.
