You’ve played very well first day not so happy today how does that affect your cool down um yeah obviously I look for for things in my golf swing um that’s the first thing I’ll do I’ll stand here and figure out what exactly went wrong

And um to me it felt like if I was looking at my divot pattern and everything out there I was kind of throwing the club outside and you know cutting across it and was just a weak fade um which is which is not really

Pretty to look at um but you know I scr around for one on the par so it couldn’t have been that bad and I know that if I come here it’ll be kind of a short little warm down and figure it out and make sure that my body’s ready for

Tomorrow so it looks like you figured it out let’s see you hit a few yeah sure so you’re using trackman yeah I got trackman what sort of data points are you looking at so to start out with I kind of like to find where zero is so this straight line is exactly the

Trackman’s aiming so I want to find and swing it down zero so I’ll feel like I set up really neutral kind of as as straight as I possibly can um and then try and swing it down as Arrow line so that I can find era that look very good to me let’s have

A look at that club .4 .4 to the left that’s pretty good you like that yeah I like that I mean for a guy who plays it you kind of want to see it there is with an open face but I I like that so I know

Where the club is there and that helps me Aim so that I like to see a fade so if I know that kind of I’m I’m within the zero of the ballpark you know if I aim if I want to feel like I’m 5 Ys left

Left then I can swing it down that line and hold the face and it should just fade back now it’s quite there we go it’s going to be it’s quite a common fault when I see coaching people swinging it too far left so what have you changed what feel have you got to

Help it feel a bit more neutral and shallow so I use a pro sander um I’ve got a an impact ball I mean I’ve probably got every training aid Under the Sun to kind of feel feel exactly where I I want to get the club coming in

But to be honest if if if you don’t have anything the easiest thing to do would be to put a straight line down and almost feel like cuz neutral is actually inside that line yeah so it’s inside that line and then it’s exiting around so if you imagine you’ve got like a I’ll

I’ll pick this up but if you imagine you got like a a half a hula hoop like that M that’s actually what neutral looks like so it doesn’t look like that it actually looks like this so the the fault is and what amateurs like to do is

To move that hula hoop there and then they cut across it and they hit big slices and it’s really hard and it’s a tough thing to practice but that’s why I like putting down the straight line so that I can see that the club kind of has

To be coming inside that line and exiting outside that line so love that on that hula hoop so D that is gold for everyone at home so kind of hitting the inside of that golf ball yeah you got to hit the inside you know Ben Hogan always

Talks about hitting the inside of the golf ball and most of the great ball Strikers tiger you know great iron players are all trying to hit the inside golf ball where I came came fromberg was a I mean was a phenomenal iron player on the sunshine tour for many many years

And he was the guy who always talked about hitting Fades from the inside of the golf ball and then when I went to my coach gr fenro we really worked hard on kind of shallowing that out and holding it I mean you know it’s it’s been quite

A few years of of grinding to get it to there but now that i’ I’ve got all that work in it’s it’s kind of an easy fix with technology you can add yourself to that list of great ball Strikers let’s see you hit another one sure no problem

What do you want to see Rachel what you want a fade a straight one a draw what you want let’s see just another nice fade ready for tomorrow a little fade for tomorrow now you’ve been working hard on your mental Game Y I’ve got my spies telling me

This you know in the first round you went birdie birdie eagle birdie birdie I got that right mindset for people at home how do you stay present and keep going low um I suppose momentum has a lot to do with that you know you’re confident you know you You’ hit so many

Good shots in a row um the tricky one is probably the third birdie or eagle or something in a row to kind of you know two in a row guys out here do that fairly regularly with three in a row and then to keep going is just kind of just

Keep the hammer down keep pushing know that you’re hitting good golf shots be confident like don’t back off backing off is probably the worst thing you could do um you know what played with Abe today that’s exactly what he did all day long he just kept hitting great iron

Shots and kept holding putts when he need all putts and it was in the easiest was probably one of the easiest ad oners I’ve ever seen putot on the gas oh that’s it putot on the gas back yourself 110% final question I’ll let you go and chill so you spoken about technical you

Come here try and find a swing feel do you then go to Performance to get ready for tomorrow yeah definitely um it’ll be phys for me light workout and then something nice for dinner which is easy to find here in Hong Kong and then uh

Rest up so is Zer a path for people at home zero path zero face so that you know where the club place is you know where the club’s coming in remember the hula hoops actually bent that way it’s not a straight line um because obviously you’re standing up and then uh if you

Want to see Fades find zero and then from there aim left and swing it on your feet line it’ll just fade and the opposite for draw and the opposite for you made this sound so simple go on finish on a draw draw draw is the same

Like it’s aimed out the right the ball naturally go a little further back and then you just swing it on that feet line it’ll draw he’s ready Dean thank you so much for letting us be part of I just following the ball flight thank you so

Much for let being part of your call down play well tomorrow appreciate it than for having me hey Christian we’ll see you soon brother

  1. Oh wow, I knew you’re meant to hit the inside of the golf ball, but now I know why. Of course the club is always moving on an arc and not a straight line, it’s so obvious once someone explains why! 😮
