Learn about the 7 Laws of Compression in this video series! Solid and consistent ball compression is what separates the great players from the average players, and this video series will show you how these laws work and how to optimize your impact position. In this video, you'll get an overview of the entire Laws of Compression video series.
Solid and consistent ball compression is what separates the great players from the good players. Learn how to compress a golf ball with our 7 Laws of Compression video series.- 6 Basic Laws to Golf Ball Compression
- In this Golf Video Series We Will Cover Each of Them
- You will learn the golf ball compression secrets of the pros
Man, I love that feeling.
I love when I compress the ball like that.
You hear a different sound, the ball hisses off the face, took a nice clean shallow divot, the ball went exactly where I wanted it Compression is the name of the game.
Impact is what we're all trying to do better every single shot.
Trying to get the conditions that determine where the ball goes to line up, To get all the stars and moons to align so that we get the ball to actually go where we want for a change.
And at the end of the day, nothing else matters more than impact.
If the ball is going to go where we want, it's going to require that we get the club to do what it needs to do.
And that's what rotary swing is all about.
It's about making it really simple to move your body in such a way that the club moves really simply and does exactly what we need it to in order to send that ball rocketing down the fairway.
Now, the problem is, There's so much confusing and conflicting information out there that it makes it darn near impossible for the average golfer to know what's up and what's down, and what's right and what's wrong.
Because everybody says something different.
Well, there are simple truths to the golf swing.
This is not rocket science.
It's very basic physics involved that send the ball straight down the target line.
And when it comes to it, when we really want to get that ball to go exactly the way we want, we really need to compress the ball properly on the face.
And when you compress the ball properly, a lot of great things are going to happen.
So we have to understand what are the things that cause the ball to be properly compressed on the face?
Well, there are six of them.
The first one is speed.
You have to have a good amount of clubhead speed.
Even with the putter, the ball compresses a little bit, But obviously not nearly the amount that a driver or the ball compresses like a pancake when it's hit properly.
So speed is number one.
So that's the first video we're going to talk about is how to increase your clubhead speed.
And I'll give you some great, simple drills that you can do indoors that are going to help you boost your speed and start feeling that good compression on the ball.
The second one is the face, the clubface angle that it's added impact.
If the clubface is open, you're going to get a very deflected and glancing blow.
And same thing to a degree, if it's closed, depending on your path.
But I'm going to talk about face angle and show you how to learn how to get the clubface square every single time.
With a really simple drill.
You can do indoors or out.
The third thing we're going to talk about is the path.
As the path starts changing, most amateur golfers come way over the top.
And that also creates this very deflected strike that kills your compression and really kills your ball speed.
Because at the end of the day, the clubhead speed is only so useful if it translates into ball speed.
And that's what I want to talk about in one of my other videos.
I'm going to give you a little bonus on path.
I'm going to show you how I cheated the track man system and got a higher compression than what's technically legal because I cheated.
With my path and club facing a little bit.
So I could actually get a 1.
54 to 1.
55 compression or ball speed to clubhead speed ratio, which technically what's legal is 1.
50.
Now I'm using illegal clubs using legal clubs.
So how did I do that?
I'm going to show you in that video.
Another problem that most amateur golfers just don't simply understand is angle of attack and how it dramatically affects compression on the ball.
Most amateur golfers start digging trenches, or they flip it really bad with their right hand and can't take a divot at all.
This is a perfect divot.
Very, very shallow.
You can still see the tips of the grassroots there.
Just scrape the sand.
That's a perfect divot.
Most pros on average for every club in the bag average only about three degrees down.
Now with the wedge, it's about four.
With the driver, it's about negative one.
But for the most part, every club in the bag is about 2.
83 degrees down.
That's not very much.
If you imagine something, this is zero and this is three degrees, it's a very, very shallow angle of attack, which allows us to get to our next point, Which is where you hit the ball on the face has a tremendous impact on what kind of compression you're going to get on the ball.
Hitting the ball really high on the face like so many golfers do causes a ton of problems.
I'm going to explain why.
So this whole series is about simplifying the understanding of why we do these drills and why we achieve these positions.
It's all about compressing the golf ball and launching it down the fairway straight and long.
Compression is your friend, and you have to understand how you compress the ball to get the results that you want.
So let's get started.
The first video I'm going to talk about is how to get some speed and how speed impacts that ball compression.
