This is training hands in club out with a pool noodle so many golfers who slice the ball or pull the ball um tend to have a very leftward release pattern so often times they’ll say they can feel that they’re getting really Steep and they will describe that they’re getting
On top of it but if we look at it from the down the line camera often times at this checkpoint the club is just inside the hand so it’s not in the outward Direction which means that the leftward path is happening all from there down to
The golf ball so it’s only a release problem it’s not really a transition problem so what’s usually happening is they’re in an okay position there and then the grip freezes and the Hand releases or the right arm releases more like this and then it gets really underneath like so
So a checkpoint in the follow through is that the hands are just or the club is just slightly outside ins the hands from a down thee line Target view so if I swing my hands out to the right that doesn’t help me get the club out to the
Right what helps me get the club out to the right is having more of a soft rotation of the arms while keeping the extension of the wrist as long as possible so basically coming through more like that as opposed to coming through the ball more with a flip like
That you can see that when I flip that gets the club swinging way to the left um when I hold it the extension of the wrist or the flexion of the lead wrist that keeps it going more out to the right if I then accompany that with body
Rotation I can get the handle to go to the left and the club to stay out to the right it gives me a very um soft shallow ground contact and um ultimately gives me a very uh repeatable penetrating ball flight so if you’re struggling with more of this outside in release Here here’s
How you set up the station so I’ve got um you know roughly in line with that flag and I put the pool noodle roughly uh in line with my knees or a little bit outside of my knees so that if I had the club shaft it’s just inside um but it’s
Not too far out away so I’m I’m bringing it relatively close uh to my my legs just to make sure that if I scoop more like this I’m going to catch it I can always check with a Down the Line camera um if the club is exiting well under my
Hands like this and it doesn’t hit it um then it might not be in the right spot so again you’ll see even if I come into a decent position here if I release it more like this I’m going to make contact with the tripod or with the foam
Noodle and it hopefully look something like that and there I hit my pull if I left the face open I would have sliced it if on the other hand I get into roughly that same position here and then I maintain the extension of my wrist keep turning my body through um
You’ll see the club finish more a little bit out to the right once I’ve Got a Feeling doing it in more slow motion shots then I can move up to 3/4 swings and ultimately full shots kind of more like that
