Really good video…..
Thanks Clay.
The best tip I've seen is from Danny Maude and is to put your trail hand on the side of the thigh and then slide it down the leg and take your grip from there. That tilts the shoulders as well as closes or squares them up if they are a bit open. Last two rounds of using this at set up has seen me drive it as good as I ever have. Fingers crossed. 🤞
Very well explained.
Great video but as you step in to the shot, how do you know your shoulders are aligned? In other words, how far left of the target do you align your shoulders and do you rely on looking at the target after you are in your setup position and see your shoulder in your peripheral vision to judge how far left your shoulder is from the target? Shoulder alignment is difficult without a camera or another set of eyes.
This is what I've been needing I like your style of teaching. I'm sure somebody has a video on weight and alignment but it just clicks with me in these videos thank you for the information!
Shifting weight has helped my power so much.
Love your videos, but I have a question. The target line left of target is sound advise. Club face at target. If you don’t, you’ll be right of the target every single time. Unless you draw it ever so slightly. So I’m a bit confused as to how both, club face and target line can be parallel.
Clay, the alignment "trick" to look at the target rather than the ball will make a huge difference in my set up. I would say I have 3-4 incorrect alignments per round that costs me several strokes per round. Thanks so much for the great information. Gary
Finally I’m starting to get it. In your talking about parallel left while you have the alignment stick in place, I can see the parallel left. I’ve been using the alignment stick but pointing it more directly at the target. And it’s causing me to hit everything right of the target. It’s not a slice or even a push but I think just poor alignment because I didn’t understand the parallel left analogy. If you were to use two alignment sticks, one above the ball and the second below the ball, at your feet, then the upper stick would be directed at the target and the lower would be parallel left of the target. At least that’s what it’s looking like to me.
In any case, I’m trying that at the range today. Thanks for your help.
