Totally makes sense Eric! As you mention many times with the drills you teach, itβs about developing a feel for the different elements of the swing!
Great stuff
ETA on android version of the app?
That's what I'm talking about!
I've never had an explanation of this swing feel before and couldn't figure out how to repeat it. This is perfect for winter indoor practice. Great warm up drill too, right?
Thank you so much for this. I hit the ball pretty good. Have those days where it's like I never golfed before lol. I have watched so many videos, BTW I have a Playlist of your videos, and always saw this tracer with the pros but never understood how that happened. I learned how to do the proper takeaway with the clubhead outside my hands and I feel on my downswing that I drop my arms down to around my right hip as I'm turning it. I'm assuming that if I traced my swing I would see that loop? But you are the first out of so many videos that explained what I was seeing. Before dropping my arms I would get to the top and make a loop, hit the ball good on one shot bad on the next because I was using my hands. Now this gives me another drill to let me know the point I want to get to and what I want to feel. And explains why the takeaway has to be the way it is along with the arms dropping and that's the result of what causes that loop. Thank you again
One of the best drills I've ever seen. So simple, so intuitive.
A revelation i had was just how low my backswing was even though I hit it pretty straight. I had to slightly adjust my backswing to be higher to make room for the "underhand" downswing. The under is helped by the weight shift.
I wish the swing coach app worked for android
As a above, So belowπ
Good video!
Good stuff! Love the app!
How far in to out would you say your swing path is?
I have used this for years and called it loop-d-loop. If I experienced a problem with my swing during a round, used this image to put me back on track. Works great!
I have recently started using the "table" thought. Works like magic! π
This is witchcraft.
Swing is completely different, from take away to finish
Golf pro marcus edblad calls this the circle of speed and promotes this movement heavily for a powerful swing ! Credit should go to him and his channel .
Does this drill work for driver as well?
Hi Eric , would you say this will work well with the woods .
This is truly very helpful information. Thank you.
This is really coolβ¦however if you address ball middle of club face and come in under wouldnβt that promote more toe strikes? Dare I say address the ball more towards the heel Γ la Moe Norman as an adjustment?
