This golf instruction video is for those who struggle to stop spinning their shoulders open through impact and want to learn how to easily draw the golf ball.
There's no greater feeling in golf than peering an iron shot like that and releasing it with no effort.
When I hit a seven iron like that I feel like the ball leaps off the face and I didn't have anything to hit the ball that far and that hard.
The trick is all in my release.
What I want to talk about today is the number one problem I see in amateur golfers when they release the club.
And the difference between a pro and an amateur is really only a few degrees when it comes down to it.
So what I'm going to do? I want to talk about what the club face should look like on the other side of the ball.
When you're looking at your swing and the swing analyzer, because you should always be looking at your swing on video, otherwise you have no idea what you're really doing.
Never ever rely on feel because feel and reel are never the same.
So when you're looking at your swing on video and you look at just after the ball.
The number one thing I see most amateur golfers doing is the club face looks like this.
The reason is they're trying to push the club through the hitting area instead of letting the club turn over.
The club as I've talked about a bunch is designed to rotate around the heel.
That's why they put the shaft on the left side instead of in the center of the face.
If they wanted the club face to stay straight through the hitting area they would have put it there.
It's designed to rotate.
You have to let it.
If you're holding on to the face and pushing through, all you're doing is not only slowing the club down, but you're keeping the club from squaring up and releasing naturally.
I didn't try and flip my hands over there as you saw the club face turn over.
All I did was keep my shoulders back and let the club release and let my arms throw the club to get the club to turn over naturally.
From face on, the biggest difference that you're going to look at when you're swinging.
When you do this is that your right shoulder.
You kind of want to envision this.
Keep your right shoulder away from the ball and the target as long as humanly possible.
What I mean by that is, you're coming down.
The worst thing you could do is start driving hard off this right side and getting the right shoulder back in front of the ball.
Very early in the swing, it's going to hold the face open and that's going to be a check swing down the first baseline.
You want to hit a home run then that actually happens by putting less effort into your swing.
Keeping your right shoulder back now, the club once it gets to the ball.
If my right shoulder stays back and doesn't move forward well, the club isn't going to magically stop.
It's got to keep going there's too much momentum.
So instead of turning to move the club I just want my forearms to turn over.
My right shoulder appears that it stays in the same spot through this release area.
And by doing that, the club is now allowed to accelerate independent of me.
Notice how little my body's working.
It's not doing anything.
I've posted up golf swings done.
As far as I'm concerned, all you do is let my forearm bones turn over to almost to the point where my wrists would touch each other.
But I'm not magically trying to make this happen.
I'm not forcing it over.
That'd be a flip.
I'm just letting the club face rotate the way it naturally wants to.
So when you're looking at your swing on video I want you to start checking.
I'll hit another one here and I'll show you the opposite, where I turn through.
And you'll be able to see the difference in the club face angle as it comes through the ball.
So now as we look at that one you're going to see the club face stayed open open open.
It was a weak skanky shot.
Didn't go anywhere.
And that's way more work for way less payoff.
All I want to do is keep this right shoulder away from the target as long as humanly possible.
Let my forearms turn over just like I talk about in many of the release videos and the shaking hands video.
Start checking your club face.
You want to see it on this side of the ball already squared up and released when it's in that three o'clock position.
If it looks like this you're not releasing the club properly and you're costing yourself tons of distance and tons of accuracy.
