1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.800
This drill is unhinged longer.

2
00:00:07.800 --> 00:00:13.200
So many golfers struggle with getting into a really good follow through

3
00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:14.240
position where

4
00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:16.240
there's lots of width.

5
00:00:16.240 --> 00:00:20.770
What will tend to happen is the arms will have a look of bending and you'll

6
00:00:20.770 --> 00:00:21.400
just see

7
00:00:21.400 --> 00:00:26.720
these angles kind of collapsing in or you'll tend to see more of this look of

8
00:00:26.720 --> 00:00:28.320
the arms rotating

9
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:32.920
over too much typically because of what's happening with the shoulder.

10
00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:36.990
That is not necessarily supination that's just too much shoulder rotation with

11
00:00:36.990 --> 00:00:37.520
a little

12
00:00:37.520 --> 00:00:41.200
bit of bend causing the club to pass or flip too quickly.

13
00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:45.450
So oftentimes one of the thoughts that works well at solving both of those

14
00:00:45.450 --> 00:00:46.320
looks on video

15
00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:50.600
is the feeling of unhinging longer.

16
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:54.080
And so I typically do this mostly with the left wrist until the right wrist has

17
00:00:54.080 --> 00:00:54.440
a feel

18
00:00:54.440 --> 00:00:57.800
like because some guys really feel it more in the right wrist.

19
00:00:57.800 --> 00:01:02.760
But feeling like the left wrist is going to be unhinged kind of like this.

20
00:01:02.760 --> 00:01:04.800
And we're going to take supination out for a second.

21
00:01:04.800 --> 00:01:08.790
I'm just going to keep my elbow here, I'm unhinged and I'm going to feel if I

22
00:01:08.790 --> 00:01:09.400
can get

23
00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:14.560
just a little bit of wrist extension while staying unhinged.

24
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:20.080
If you have a tendency to come up really quickly like this, that will have more

25
00:01:20.080 --> 00:01:21.920
of a look where

26
00:01:21.920 --> 00:01:26.880
the club is exiting and this arm tends to get really narrow quickly.

27
00:01:26.880 --> 00:01:32.050
Where if I unhinged and then let it pass and then let it hinge up, you will

28
00:01:32.050 --> 00:01:34.200
tend to see

29
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:37.720
two things from this face on view, you'll tend to see more width.

30
00:01:37.720 --> 00:01:43.300
And from the down the line view, what you'll see is if I do the bad one, this

31
00:01:43.300 --> 00:01:44.040
arm will

32
00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:46.280
have more of a bend look to it.

33
00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:53.040
If I do more of that extension longer and let it feel like it almost rotates,

34
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:54.240
staying, passing

35
00:01:54.240 --> 00:02:00.250
the hand while staying in line, if I have more of that feel, it will tend to

36
00:02:00.250 --> 00:02:01.000
exit more

37
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:06.170
left or I'll be able to have that left arm kind of more in line with the shaft

38
00:02:06.170 --> 00:02:06.920
plane.

39
00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:11.000
So if you have more of this look of stall flip, even though you're in a really

40
00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:11.840
good position

41
00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:17.280
here, oftentimes it's just feeling that wrist stay unhinged a little bit longer

42
00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:17.600
.

43
00:02:17.600 --> 00:02:22.810
So if I take that to a nine to three, I'm going to try and stay unhinged all

44
00:02:22.810 --> 00:02:23.520
the way

45
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:24.520
to there.

46
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:29.080
So I'm going to try to resist the club coming up and it's hard to do nothing.

47
00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:34.400
So while I'm keeping it unhinged, I'm going to feel like it releases just a

48
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:35.200
little bit

49
00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:38.000
after impact while staying down.

50
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:42.290
So it's going to go more this way or it's going to stay down and have a little

51
00:02:42.290 --> 00:02:42.760
bit of

52
00:02:42.760 --> 00:02:46.200
forearm rotation.

53
00:02:46.200 --> 00:02:49.040
But it's not going to rehinge.

54
00:02:49.040 --> 00:02:50.040
So we'll do that again.

55
00:02:50.040 --> 00:02:55.660
So I'm going to keep that unhinged all the way down through there.

56
00:02:55.660 --> 00:03:02.570
Now as I start to add speed, I'm going to feel like it stays down all the way

57
00:03:02.570 --> 00:03:03.240
until

58
00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:08.390
there and in order to keep that, I'm probably going to feel a lot more shoulder

59
00:03:08.390 --> 00:03:08.920
or chest

60
00:03:08.920 --> 00:03:09.920
rotation.

61
00:03:09.920 --> 00:03:15.120
So I'm going to keep that unhinged all the way until the club is pointing kind

62
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:15.920
of behind

63
00:03:15.920 --> 00:03:17.360
me at the road.

64
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:22.280
So that's going to emphasize keeping that width on the way through.

65
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:27.740
Again, if I need some movement to do so it doesn't feel like I'm just locking

66
00:03:27.740 --> 00:03:28.240
it, then

67
00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:32.280
it's going to feel like I'm letting the club release while it's longer.

68
00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:37.430
It tends to produce a real kind of wide bottom of the swing in a really shallow

69
00:03:37.430 --> 00:03:37.840
position.

70
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:41.710
If you tend to get more dig, then there's a good chance that you're rehinging

71
00:03:41.710 --> 00:03:42.400
this wrist

72
00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:44.760
a little bit quicker.

73
00:03:44.760 --> 00:03:52.540
So then if we go more into full swing but slowly, it's going to again tend to

74
00:03:52.540 --> 00:03:53.400
feel like

75
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:59.720
that staying down but not passing my body as it rotates.

76
00:03:59.720 --> 00:04:04.420
I have had people describe where if you're used to rehinging and you get it

77
00:04:04.420 --> 00:04:05.400
more down,

78
00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:09.440
then feeling like this left wrist passes can almost feel like this right wrist

79
00:04:09.440 --> 00:04:09.880
is more

80
00:04:09.880 --> 00:04:10.880
of a throw.

81
00:04:10.880 --> 00:04:16.050
I think that's part of where kind of the gym hardy one-plane release of kind of

82
00:04:16.050 --> 00:04:16.520
flipping

83
00:04:16.520 --> 00:04:21.840
like this came from is if you keep the ulnar deviation and you feel a little

84
00:04:21.840 --> 00:04:22.760
bit of this

85
00:04:22.760 --> 00:04:27.930
after impact or through the ball, it will tend to feel a little bit more of a

86
00:04:27.930 --> 00:04:28.440
flex of

87
00:04:28.440 --> 00:04:33.360
this wrist as the lead arm is staying down and rotating.

88
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:40.080
So this is a really subtle but useful pattern for helping clean up that follow

89
00:04:40.080 --> 00:04:41.480
through position

90
00:04:41.480 --> 00:04:43.600
or the end of your 9 to 3.

91
00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:49.330
If you tend to have either those looks that I describe where it's a little bit

92
00:04:49.330 --> 00:04:50.160
more bent

93
00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:56.910
and turned over here or it's a little bit more kind of rolled over like this or

94
00:04:56.910 --> 00:04:57.360
if you

95
00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:04.140
tend to feel more of kind of like a shock and flip if it feels more kind of

96
00:05:04.140 --> 00:05:05.040
like hitty

97
00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:10.250
and there's a lot of wrist action down at the bottom, then working on this un

98
00:05:10.250 --> 00:05:10.960
hinging

99
00:05:10.960 --> 00:05:18.370
longer or all the way until the end of the follow through position can be

100
00:05:18.370 --> 00:05:19.520
really useful

101
00:05:19.520 --> 00:05:21.720
for cleaning up ground contact.

102
00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:25.920
So try that if you have a little bit of width restriction in your follow

103
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:29.040
through position.
