If you want a smooth, powerful, and consistent golf swing — it starts with understanding how your hands work in the downswing. In this video, I break down the perfect downswing sequence and why your hands must match the travel of your hips through impact.

Using a drill inspired by Justin Rose’s famous rehearsal, you’ll learn how feeling like your hands drop first sets you up for a tour-quality strike. This is the move that fixes early extension, casting, and over-the-top swings.

🏌️‍♂️ In this video:
✔️ How to sequence your hands and hips in the downswing
✔️ Why the hands drop first (and not the shoulders!)
✔️ The Justin Rose rehearsal drill to groove this motion
✔️ How this move leads to rotation, compression, and distance

If the upper body leads your hands, well then the right side of your body closes the space down between you and the ball and your hands will go out over the top. So it’s like you’re leaving this here and you’re bringing your hands down to here. Exactly. And you’re trying to feel like the hips and the hands are both going together, but you’re not unwinding the upper body. If I keep my sternum facing that as long as I humanly can, and I fire my hips in my hands, it looks like this. for you cuz I was watching your swing. It looked pretty darn good. The things that the one big thing that was missing was what we call it’s called the sequence. The sequence on the way down. Your sequence needs to feel from the top of your swing as if your arms and hands are leading your upper body’s movement. Okay? Don’t let your shoulders tug your arms through. Uh-huh. If I’m right here and I’m already pre-rotated, right? Look, look, look how slow everything is, you know, there’s just nothing there. But you look at when I keep that back to the target, you know, you see how everything just really, you know, it just naturally releases and slings past my body. Now, the reason I do that drill is not to have somebody like Tiger in 2000 feel like he’s actually keeping his back to the target the entire down swing. It’s we’re just working you guys on 5 in of transition right here. Let me be real literal for all of you. Imagine there’s a glass tabletop on top of my shoulders. My hands go just above that glass tabletop. If I start rotating my upper body and my hands are above that tabletop, I’m done. I’m done. The hands actually have to break through that glass. and then have me rotate with my upper body for me to actually be connected. Because what happens for most people when the hands are above the level of the shoulders, they’re either going to kick out this way and get very over the top or they just pin way behind the body and don’t catch up. Back to me giving you this example right here. You know, this is that’s freeing my arms up. There’s a couple ways to work at this. Okay. I like to sometimes keep a golf ball right here behind the golf ball that I hit. We can’t have these two both unwinding together, right? And when that happens, you drag the hands through. You lose all the speed, right? Basically, you know, me me pulling my hands through of my chest looks like this. You know, you just don’t have the zip to it. Me keeping my chest facing this golf ball and firing my arms and hands past me looks like this. Look how different that is. Right? That’s that zip that you see in that golf shot right there. And this always helps me because I’m a big time spatial awareness guy. If I have something there on the ground that I have that you tell me, hey, keep my chest pointed at that. Keep my sternum, my microphone right here. Keep it right there as long as I can while my hands and hips going. Guys, essentially what I’m doing is I’m doing Justin Rose’s pre-shot rehearsal that everybody sees with that drill. Problem with most people is the way that they turn as they turn the sternum and the belt buckle together and that’s where you, you know, you really lose the pop. So, you know what you need to do is you’re essentially needing you need to keep your back to the target longer. Your hands need to start moving sooner. This right here has always been my go-to. If I keep my sternum facing that as long as I humanly can I fire my hips in my hands, it looks like this. And what’s great is look where I finish though. Yeah. You know, I still finish with everything facing the golf, you know, everything facing the target. The hips can fly. You just can’t have your upper body lead your hands for multiple reasons. If the upper body leads your hands, well then the right side of your body closes the space down between you and the ball and your hands will go out over the top and that causes a lot of pulls or big cuts off, you know, and like I said, it loses the the lag, you lose the leverage, you lose all that, you know, the cracking of the whip. You look at somebody skip a rock, their hips and their right elbow go, their chest stays back and the chest follows their hands and that’s how they keep that speed. So, Adam, on the on the down swing, uh, what is your swing thought with with the left side of your body? Can the shoulder ever You need to feel like you need to let your left shoulder stay under your chin while your hands come down like you you need to be like this. Not start to swing for for you. No, not for you. You need to feel like you’re like this. Mhm. And like this. Uh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. And like that. That’s what that’s why I’m keeping the chest facing that spot right there. And that’s what that is. That looks like this. I’ll take that. Yeah. So, here we go. Let’s h let’s hop in there, though. And let’s just try to create a feeling for this, though. Take some practice swings first. So, go to the top of your swing. Okay. So, it’s like you’re leaving this here and you’re bringing your hands down to here. Exactly. And you’re trying to feel like the hips and the hands are both going together. Uhhuh. But you’re not unwinding the upper body. There it was right there. Completely different right there. Come. I mean, it was like that was your farthest one by probably 20 yards. Farthest one by 20 yards in a one yard draw. Be the mechanics of every club then. 100%. And it will be needed. It it’ll be uh you need to feel it even more when you hit a driver than you would a sand wedge. A sand wedge, you guys, it’s short and connected. I literally can feel like I’m just throwing a medicine ball, you know? It’s like all working together, man. I get to like a I get to like an eight iron and up though, that’s where I start to really have to feel what just was talked about, you know? I mean, and and I’ll tell you right now, I get to like five iron and up, that’s where it’s like it’s actually the main priority of my swing. That last one was unbelievable. Crazy how good it was. It went literally 20 yards farther and it just had this. You could hear it and feel it though. I know it feel really good. So, when you know, I’ll pick out a blade of grass back there or I’m going to even exaggerate. I I’ll just keep, you know, my chest facing Kevin for as long as I humanly can and let it go. And you can see when I mean, even when I think about that, I just hit the ball so much better. It just really, really gets that compression cuz the hands actually get down while I’m in the shot. Adam, for me, is that the genesis of the shank? Then it’s defining your shank. Think about this. You get your body rotating out in front of it. Yeah. The club opens up, everything goes this way. The hle exposed big time. And that’s why, you know, what’s funny? I’ve actually told people that generations of golf instruction have actually taught people how to shank it because watch the shank. This is me just rotating way out in front of my body about on my arms and hands. You see, I’m just And I’m already here and everything’s here. Yeah. Club just like this. Uh-huh. There you go. It’s a game changer. You know, they have to lead the motion. They have to work with your weight transfer. They have to work with rotation. And for most people, I found, you know, it’s them feeling like they move they move first and faster. Yeah. When I when I’m uh when I’m thinking about my hands, do I do I think about uh you know that hip and grip like thing? I think about that that I I need to end up here or should I not even you know and and and that’s where your hips do need to move with your hands, right? And a lot of times the reason the hips don’t move is because the hands are caught behind. Yeah. So I’ve always found that when I, you know, when I get my hands moving, my hips open up a lot. Yeah. You know, and consciously doing it, right? No. I I used to practice that a lot though, like this. It’s like watch see my h my hips are still opening. Oh yeah. Yeah. I see that. Right. Right. Watch Justin when he does it. His hips still open. His chest is just not opening as he does that behind you for about an hour there fixing everybody swing back here. I was looking at you and all I saw was this. I saw hands up here and you going like this. Yeah. Rather than Yeah. Rather than this. The thing is uh I I don’t feel that at all. I don’t feel like Well, nobody does until Nobody does until I tell them. Yeah, you know, let your hands lead the motion on the way down. You’re doing a great job with the structure of your back swing. Let them lead that motion. Iron high. Yeah, it’s way different. I wish I could see them though. Yeah. No, they’re going dead straight.
