Hey bud, there’s a ceiling there. Who me? Why’ you not like that takeaway or something? Welcome back to 15-minute golf drills. Today we’re going to be talking about our takeaway. I’ll be giving you two different ways that you can practice it in order to make that whole thing a little bit calmer. All that you’re going to need to do this is whatever club you choose. Today I’ve got an 8 iron. And that’s it. For this first version, all I need you to do is take whatever your normal setup would be. Go ahead and get in it. Once you’re here and you know how far you should be standing away from the ball, go ahead and just stand up. Hold this club up here parallel to the ground somewhere around belt high without rolling the club or doing anything crazy. Can you just take your upper torso and a little bit of legs? It’s okay if they move a touch and spin 90°. Not really using your hands and arms all that much. So, there’s no need to roll. There’s no need to drag the handle. There’s no need to whip the club head back up here somewhat parallel to the ground. Can you just spin 90 degrees? Now, what you’ll notice is this club, if I were to drop a line straight down, it’s pretty much directly over the center of my foot where a takeaway goes. So, I’ll grab one more club to map that out. This part’s dealer’s choice. If you want to make it super perfect, put that second one down there. Can you spin back there? Once you get used to that, drop it down a little bit. Can you spin back there? Dropping it down a little bit more each time. Can you get that club to spin back directly over that line over the center of your foot? And as you get lower, we’re not throwing in any roll or any handle drag. Keeping that same spin until the club gets over that line over the center of your foot. The ball, same thing. Go ahead and chip it. Nice. And the second version, if you like a little bit more tension in your takeaway, like you’re building that coil and your lead arm is working into your body, we’re going to do it this way. All I’m going to have you do is hold the club in just your lead hand. We’re going to take our trail hand and just wrap it right on top of our lead hand so that we’re holding it. Once you’re set up to the golf ball, can you use your trail hand to pull your lead arm to where your lead bicep is creating more tension between your lead pec all while we are putting it over that same center foot position. I’m going to use my trail arm to pull my lead arm into my lead pec until it gets somewhere around pocket high directly over that center foot position. Once you’re there, just go ahead and take your trail hand, put it on the club, and you recreate that with a normal grip. If you can, go ahead and chip it. The first one, both arms stay a little bit more neutral and a little bit longer with most of it coming from our core turn to get us back there. The second one, we use a little bit more of our trail arm to create more tension between our lead bicep and our lead pec in order to get it back there. Creates a little bit more of a coil. Both are great. One will just work better for you. Make sure to like, comment, follow, share for more. Let me know in the comments down below what you want to talk about
