if this is your toe line right when you swing down you want to get this club feeling like it’s outside of that
like it’s kind of coming in from high and outside
this is where the club should be both on the way back during my takeaway Mhm
and when I come down
meaning it shouldn’t really be inside of that
so if I made a normal neutral swing that club should never even come close to that
so you’re going to feel like it’s more in front of you coming down and then more left on the way through oh my gosh what What is I’m so scared of this stick how was that
i mean the contact is definitely better you can just feel it for sure
yeah that’s the best one you’ve done so far
yeah let me do again
that was solid contact and like almost dead straight so this is now 3/4 swing same feels where it’s a little out to in and to the left yes come on beauty
okay as you keep the club on plane and go golf i promise you that big sweeping hook is not going to be in there what’s up guys so we have Sabrina back in town now she came in two days before she was going to play in an event so didn’t want to go nuts with her swing changes she says she was hitting the ball kind of high and soft not really compressing her irons was getting some pushes and hooks so I wanted to try and give her one simple thing without rehauling her swing or changing her grip or anything that would have been too weird to play with so we identified one thing for her to work on to help compress her irons and hit the ball much straighter same thing will apply for you give it a watch let me know in the comments down below if you like these style of videos what you want with these lessons style videos moving forward appreciate you watching okay so I’m going to pull up Maxoma okay so when Max goes down watch how his club head like rides right down that plane line and then once he gets to here once the hands get like thigh high they go left through the ball they go left and then the shaft should exit underneath the shoulder see how you go it’s too far inside face a little too open and then you swing to the right
yes I see that
to the right and then it exits too high see how See how high your arms exit right in there and then see how for him the sha the arms and shaft exit left of the shoulder
i definitely see that
so there’s two key indicators here one is the hands should be left of the shoulder when you swing through instead of to the right and then also the shaft the shaft should exit underneath the shoulder now to change your swing plane right and when you got when you’re watching this whatever your swing plane issue is you you have to feel the opposite to find middle
okay
so for Sabrina she comes too far inside out and hits pushes and hooks that’s going to be those of you that are like shooting in the 70s you know breaking 80 maybe in the 80s if you’re higher handicap you shoot 90s 100 you’re probably out to in too much
oh really yeah they probably swing out to like the slicer
i’ve seen some videos your dad played does this he hit a slice when he goes he’s probably out to in right
no okay
so he needs to feel more in out
you got to feel the opposite of the issue so you take your setup for me nothing else changes you keep your setup square keep your hands on the club once you feel set mhm
so through impact I want you to feel like once you’re about here in the swing this is like the last point that the hands go to the right
so from here through they actually should go left left left left left to where you feel like they’re up over here almost like you’re trying to get your hands left of like your hip or the club left of your heel line
okay
which to you should feel like quite a bit left compared to normal so I’m here and then just everything left turn the corner
and just almost feel low too right
low and left yes
oo I like this
low and left like you’re trying to hit a pull cut yeah good now
hit a draw
yeah hit hit a draw hit a draw right
that was a pull actually
lower ball flight ball started a little bit left
and the contact felt a lot better
i was going to say your contact’s going to get cleaner from here first but that look look at that turn in the corner beautiful that’s like what you’d look like on a like an LPJ player i I got to get this a little more on plane early here too so if I needed you from here Sabrina to hit a shot look look up at the clock if you can turn your neck
oh my neck okay okay okay
if you needed to hit a ball that started left of that which direction do you think you would swing this club into the golf ball
this way
yeah let me see it again if you wanted to hit it the most left you’d probably swing it look at me now you’d probably swing it the most from out here
into the ball would you agree yes you certainly wouldn’t swing it
from here to hit it left
again this is for someone if you’re hitting the pushing and hooking like Sabrina does
if this is your toe line right when you swing down you want to get this club feeling like it’s outside of that
like it’s kind of coming in from high and outside normal Sabrina low and inside scoopy high push draw
no
this is what you want to feel
high and outside when you feel this Sabrina it’ll come in like right here
okay but it’ll feel like this and then it’ll feel like it’s going around
okay no that’s good so from here just
you got over the top and then to the left on the way through
little swing again
yeah a little half one yeah close okay now watch where you are here see that’s less from inside but still too far still too far from inside but better see look at you turning the corner there now I’m going to pop this in just for one or two
oh so if you guys didn’t see the lesson where we were keeping Sabrina swing more on plane back and through and we put object under the arm to shorten the the swing length this is an easy way to do the swing plane now I’m going to put in fact I’ll give you something different that maybe you don’t have any scar tissue with
here’s a different way to do the same thing so if we took our setup here if I put the club down my toe line let’s say about parallel to the ground this is where the club should be both on the way back during my takeaway
mhm
and when I come down
meaning it shouldn’t really be inside of that
so if I made a normal neutral swing that club should never even come close to that
so we’ve got that object in here let’s do one or two swings without a ball just to feel it i’ve got that set up pretty low like it should it’s not shouldn’t be too hard there
i so feel I’m going to hit that yeah i’m gonna I’m going to make it a little harder when we go but just for you to feel it yeah yeah yeah exactly excellent let me do Do that one more time Sabrina hold on one second let me show you what that looks like
i’m so scared of it
good i want you to be a little scared of it let’s do that again so does this serve the same purpose as the water bottle
yes so watch you swing watch how on plane that is it’s so crazy how much the swing changes when you put a stick there
watch when you come down you’re not even like close to swinging over the top
and you get more space right
totally it’s also going to help you get the handle more forward at impact you’re a little lower
more solid less big hook
okay we need to get this down in two days
oh yeah two balls two balls maybe there’s traps let’s go
so Sabrina let’s start with a half one
okay half swing same feels so you’re going to feel like it’s more in front of you coming down and then more left on the way through
oh my gosh what what is I’m so scared of this stick how was that
i mean the contact is definitely better you can just feel it for sure
yeah that’s the best one you’ve done so far
yeah okay let me do it again that was solid contact and like almost dead straight i want to thank our partners at Lab Golf the Lab Golf putters have totally transformed my putting i’ve always had a hard time getting the ball to start online it just didn’t feel super solid and since I worked with Sam and I got the lab putters my putting is so much better the putters feel so good the ball rolls online all you really got to do is get the putter moving does the rest of the work for you if you’re looking for a new putter I can’t recommend them highly enough we’ll put a link in the description down below part of this is when you practice the more you do this the more it’ll become your normal
yes
so it’ll just happen automatically also if you go out and play because I know how you are and if you have like a bad hole or two in the beginning where it doesn’t like it doesn’t need to be a hole you can fix it quick then yes okay hey if I’m hitting a push hook or it’s going too high the contact’s off okay I need to feel like the club’s more in front of me imagine I have that stick there right and swing more left on the way through
really quick though I feel sometimes with the drill stuff I just get so frustrated setting it up that I don’t even do it so I I just put this
I can’t say I’m that surprised by that one so okay
I try to set it up and it’s just not correct i’m like you know what i’m done yeah
so is it just in line with this
yeah so here’s a simple way to do it if I put this let’s say you put a club now this is what we’ll call the ball target line so if you were to come back here it’s like that’s right in line with the ball and the target
okay gotcha perfect
now you take the alignment rod and then I would say you could put this alignment rod let’s say two club heads inside that okay that’s a good
So one about two right let’s put about two club heads inside and then you could angle this stick about the same angle as the club you’re using
okay that’s really easy
so ball target line two club heads and and when you set up go and take your setup there
when you set up like you put it far enough back that like you would never hit it with your hands right you can put it like almost all the way down the shaft or 3/4 of the way down the shaft meaning like you wouldn’t put it here
yeah okay
same feels club’s in front of you left on the way through pull cut excellent job see see how that takes the hook off
yeah for
now your contact wasn’t quite as clean on that one cuz we still cast it a little bit yeah
but directionwise the more you keep the club on plane like this the more you’re going to you’ll fix the pushing and the hooking and again if you’re someone who’s too over the top you got to do the opposite of this you swing out to already you’ve got to swing more into out yes Sabrina okay definitely just I I feel the difference for sure
let’s go a little bit of a longer swing with that before we do anything else so this is now three/4er swing same feels where it’s a little out to in and then to the left yes come on beauty
okay
as you keep the club on plane and go golf I promise you that big sweeping hook is not going to be in there
do some people have the exact opposite sticks
totally
wow
so like for the slicer if you’re if you’re someone who’s over the top watching you’ve got to take this and do the opposite and move it outside and swing underneath it that’s what most golfers do you You’ve got a good problem which is too far from me now if we were to do the follow through version just to show you I would put this here and then arc it under you so you had to swing underneath it
see I feel that stick is less intimidating up there than back here
yeah the problem is if you still come too far from inside to it it’s not going to totally fix the the problem but from here keep your hands on the club when you come through now and this is more in front of you this has to feel like it works around more left
so let’s try one from there just so we have it it’s still going to I’m going to still pretend the stick’s behind me as well
yep awesome so ironically for you the more you swing the club to the left the less you’re going to hit it left like hook it left
that doesn’t make sense but it makes sense
it’s like a game of opposites the more you swing the club to the right you’re going to shut the face down and the ball’s going to loop left this way feel the same things a little over the top and a little left awesome like that should have felt pretty crispy
that felt a lot better the contact feels way better immediately I see it’s lower
exactly so whenever you swing too far inside with this casting motion the more from in out you swing the higher it’s going to go yeah that’s so true i really like the penetrating ball flight with the irons for sure so if you’re someone watching and you have too high scoopy the push hook miss like this this would be the plane station you want to have same angle as the club two club heads inside the ball line feeling more out to in and then to the left beautiful Sabrina beautiful
so much better
it doesn’t get much better than that all right guys if you like this and wanted to see the first lesson I did with Sabrina last year we’ll put that card on the screen here go check that out
