Session 3 of 4


All right.

Good evening, everyone.

Hopefully, we have audio and video this time.

Hopefully, we have both.

Let me know.

Audio should be better.

Don't know yet, but we shall find out.

Audio good.

All right, David.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Sound good from here.

Okay.

Definitely been trying to get things going.

Sounds fine.

Good.

Good audio and video.

Nice.

So welcome to boot camp.

Session number three.

Same host.

Same.

Topic So to speak, talking about golf today, unless you want to talk about something else, but welcome, thank you for stopping by today.

Hopefully the audio is working much better.

Um, because what I found out, while we let people kind of gather in, uh, so I've bought two different transmitters in the last day and a half.

They didn't work.

And then I bought a new lab mic and then put the lab mic on my old transmitter.

And then that started working.

So long story short, I have a ton of microphones and transmitters right now.

So if this one doesn't work, we'll try another one for the next one.

But it should be much clearer.

It should be sharper.

Hopefully it is.

All right.

Steve here.

I agree, Brian.

Charles, drills looked easy.

They weren't.

Well, good.

Did you think that I was just going to make it easy on you?

You know, it's got to be a little bit of a challenge.

That's what makes it fun.

A lot of people ask me, like when it comes to golf and stuff, you know, why, you know, with other sports or other things that, you know, I did in the past, why did I choose golf?

Because it was always a challenge.

It's the one thing that I love about the sport is to never have any perfection to it.

You can always continue to strive to get better and better, and I really enjoy that.

Check the flux capacitor.

Tom, always check the flux capacitor.

It's the gigawatts that's the problem.

Flux capacitor, good.

It's the gigawatts.

All right.

Thank you, Pete.

Sounds good on my side, Jason.

Nice.

I've been practicing very hard.

I never realized how much I used my arms until doing this boot camp.

What a very telling statement, Tom.

That goes very well into tonight's topic, is overusing of the arms.

I will go into more detail, but that's, I would say, one of the top.

Few comments rotariers learn during the process is how much that they've overworked their arms in their golf swing.

I used to do the same thing, so I understand.

And with tonight's session, we'll be graduating on and moving up and further.

And, uh, what I would like for you to do?

Say hello to Anthony if you can.

I think he's in the room tonight, I know he will be helping us out, Rotary Swing, Anthony Hopkins.

And I appreciate the help today, Anthony.

And I'm going to let everybody kind of pile in the same thing I usually do because I sit here and I watch this ticker and I see it grow and grow.

And I don't want anybody that's trying to get to the live session, you know, because we're all over the place.

If they're trying to get in, I want to make sure that they get in.

That way they can ask questions live because when you got me in front of you.

or you got Anthony in the chat board live and it hits you, I want you to get all those things buttoned up.

In the meantime, if you have any questions leading up until now, this is a good time to ask.

Not anything about today's, not anything about Saturday's, but if you have any questions about what we've done so far, go ahead and do that now.

It's a good way to kill some time.

Get some information out before we get to work.

All right.

How much secondary axis tilt is too much?

Reason for too much.

Great question, Rob.

Anthony answered why.

Too much trail side push is going to be the number one reason of having excessive.

Secondary axis tilt Okay, it's typically going to be taking this trail hip or trail leg pushing too hard.

And you're trying to keep your head behind the golf ball.

And think about it.

If your hips are going this way and you're not allowing your head to move, what's going to happen to your secondary tilt?

Your secondary tilt's going to increase?

Now?

The other question on the table with this okay is how much is too much secondary tilt?

It's all dependent upon you.

As you know, here at Rotary we get very scientific and we believe in teaching based on anatomy.

So, how much is too much secondary tilt, or what is proper secondary tilt?

If I say, set my club here and I add axis tilt, so I have roughly about eight to ten degrees of axis tilt right here, okay, how much secondary axis tilt should I?

Having the downswing, what's going to be the determining factor of that?

Well, my goal in the downswing is to do.

What with my lead, leg and hips, it's to get my hip stacked and neutral over my knee, over my ankle joint.

So my secondary tilt should only be limited to how far I have to move to get my hips stacked.

Okay, So secondary axis tilt does increase in the downswing, but it should be limited to you getting your hip and neutral joint alignment, okay?

So it's a little bit of increase, but it's based on how far you have to move your pelvis, which in the downswing, you are typically going to move your pelvis roughly about six to eight inches.

Charles tried to run before I could crawl.

I understand.

Gerald, there is some side bin at impact, but how much is too much?

How much is too much side bin?

Well, if I'm here and I start, let me try to get here in the camera.

If I'm here and I start to shift and I start to post, side bend is going to be a necessary evil from impact into the follow through right here.

But if you, I think it's a little bit easier to see from face on.

The secondary tilt's only increasing so much.

So with the secondary tilt only increasing enough for my hip to get stacked, why would I require this big crunching right here of side bend?

Because what's gonna typically happen is you're gonna get too much secondary axis tilt, all right?

You're changing your shoulder plane.

So side bend is a necessary evil, but you really shouldn't have that much.

You're gonna experience more issues.

With side bend as you get here in the follow through.

Because you're kind of maintaining this position and maintaining on the shoulder plane, that's going to be where you kind of get a little bit stuck with that side bend.

But it impacted.

You really shouldn't have this big, long, drawn out angle because you shouldn't be taking your trail shoulder and driving it underneath like this and getting this really steep, uh, shoulder plane.

Paul, if you listen to tour pros interviews on the weekend, they tend to struggle with very similar issues that we Obviously, I'm much more refined level, but they're always working on something.

Absolutely, Paul.

And I don't care whether you're just a weekend warrior or you're doing it for a living.

It's all the same stuff.

They struggle with the same things that we do.

They just struggle to a lesser extent.

What was the old Rotella book?

Golf's a game of misses, they just miss a little better than we do.

Most of the times I hit the ball where the ball is, but a few times I'm hitting behind the ball where the ball is supposed to be.

Well, Jason, that's going to either be your legs or your trail hand.

So if you're still struggling with fat, You're either not getting the weight over here.

And the hips clear to provide the position of the lead shoulder to be out ahead to have that downward strike, or you're taking your trail hand and you're throwing your angle away.

Now there is a little bit of a minor one.

It doesn't really happen that much in nine to three.

If it's not your trail hand and it's not your hips, you can have some push to create the same thing.

We typically don't see that until we get into today though.

And a nine to three.

It's going to be rare to have that much thumb push, though, because you're not really going for a ton of power.

Your back will definitely exactly, uh, excessive slide leading to open club face.

Yes, Charles, so if you think about it, if you are continuing forward, Okay, so let's say we're continuing forward.

What's the club not doing?

Until you, as Anthony so eloquently put until you slam on the brakes, this club doesn't release.

Okay, so if you're still moving this way, all you're doing is delaying face rotation.

That's why shoulders, when you're working on release and you take your shoulders and you keep ripping them, look at what's happening right now.

My face is still wide open.

Until I stop, now everything catch back up and rotate over.

All right.

One or two more minutes because I just saw three more people pop in.

It seems to me like I get into a fake post-up.

It feels like my lead leg straightens, but I don't feel the lead hip is pushing back.

My guess is this is form and just sliding into a straight lead leg.

It can be from that.

But how dynamic does it need to feel?

I mean, if you've done a, if you've done a semblance of post-op in your career.

I mean, like, right now, like, I don't, I don't really feel a ton.

I feel my glute activating, I feel a little bit of my quad.

But I mean, unless I'm really trying to power something like, I don't feel this massive.

Um, engagement.

And that's, and that's actually a good kind of segue into what we're talking about tonight.

Because when you think about muscles and the way muscles need to react and the way that they need to fire and stretch and load and all these fancy stuff that goes into the golf swing, your muscles need to be able to move, they need to be able to react.

Okay, so as I'm going through here, I'm allowing my muscles to load and stretch and fire.

But if I'm like this the whole time and I'm maxed out on tension, my muscles are already at max load.

The only thing that they're going to do is kind of dissipate from there.

They can't maintain that level.

Conversely, if you go the other direction, if you're dead, nothing's firing at all.

So everything just gets super lazy and you're just kind of moving around and lollygagging.

So your muscles need to be ready to work.

So they're engaged, but they're ready to fire.

So like when I'm moving through here and getting my hips, I'm making things feel, you know, dynamic and fast.

I don't, you've heard some players talk before, you know, that kind of feel sluggish.

Everything's just kind of feel sluggish through here because their legs are tired or they overwork things or overfire things so much.

You should never really, Kind of get to that exhaustion point.

And that's a little bit of like, what the drill that we're going to work on tonight and how we're blending it into the swing.

Um, you should never hit this fatigue.

Okay, should never hit this fatigue spot, all right, Anthony?

Here's a question that was brought to me How do you post up open your hips without closing your shoulders?

How do you post up open your hips without closing your shoulders, closing your shoulders or opening your shoulders?

I mean, I can sit right here, move my hips, my shoulders are barely moving, my hips are opening, my shoulders aren't doing a whole bunch.

So in the golf swing, the hips are going to always be out ahead of the shoulders.

Okay, you know, there's the sequence of the chain of events from the ground.

Um, so there is a.

I mean, I don't want to say there's a ton of hip dissociation.

But the only reason your shoulders are going to go like this with your hips is manual.

Like, just just stand here, clear your hips.

Like, what are my shoulders doing?

I'm straightening my watch, my left butt, cheek.

Right now.

Are my shoulders really firing open?

No, it's because I'm not using them.

The only time my shoulders are going to go with my hips is if I'm actively trying to do that.

If you think about even like the trail foot, okay, I've had, I'm sure Anthony's had the same thing.

I know Chuck has.

I know I have.

I've had countless players say, Craig, it's not me pushing off my right foot.

It's my left foot that's making my right foot go nuts.

Something doesn't add up with that.

All right.

My left foot can't make my right foot pick up like this.

I have to manually make my foot go like this.

I can sit here and post all day long.

You'll see that my foot is kind of falling a little bit, a little bit on the end step, tiny.

But my foot can't be like this because of my hips.

That's me manually doing that.

My left leg doesn't make my right leg move.

So it's the same thing with the shoulders.

It's not your post that's causing your shoulders to be super-duper open.

You're causing your shoulders to be super-duper open.

Yes, the shoulders are going to fall along with the hips.

If I'm moving back over here and I start to shift and work down, my shoulders are going to have to follow at some point in my hips, kind of dependent upon my flexibility.

Some players, you can see, have the mobility.

You don't need this kind of contortion in your golf swing, but some players.

You know, they can get their hips, you know, 90 degrees open and their shoulders square.

This feels terrible, but some players can do that and doesn't cause any issue.

But the legwork will bring the shoulders with you, but that doesn't force the shoulders open like this.

That's active motion.

All right.

Well, I think that's going to be the last of everybody.

So what are we going to do tonight?

Continue talking some golf?

So for the late bloomers in the class or the late arrivers, tonight is session three.

If we have any video or audio issues, please let me know.

Anthony, send me a text.

Hopefully we won't have any issues.

But with that being said, tonight we are going to start talking about speed.

Now, Some people may feel that this topic's a little bit too soon to start talking about.

Because they can't even get past their nine to three or their phase two.

Maybe the case, right?

You may still be back in phase two and really needing to dial that down.

But that doesn't mean I don't want you to understand what I'm doing tonight to test it out a little bit.

So you kind of know whether you're soaring too high or not, whether you're pushing yourself a little bit to the limit.

But some of the things that we talk about in this concept or, you know, in the, you know, adding of speed helps you with the prior phases.

Okay.

Because when you're trying to learn new movement patterns, one thing that players tend to do a lot of is they stay in their lane.

All right.

You know, as I spoke about in phase one, players start to work on the dead drill and they're like, okay, load, rotate, shift, post, one rep.

Load, rotate, shift, post, two reps.

That's great in the beginning.

at some point in time, you have to speed it up.

Not only just because the golf swing's fast, but you have to challenge your brain.

You got to make your brain work a little bit.

And that's what this does a little bit for you.

It starts to kind of get those neurons and those neural pathways to start to fire a little bit to be like, look, he kind of wants to do this at speed or at pace.

We've got to kind of work a little bit harder on this.

Now, this is an analogy that I use constantly, okay?

If you think about snapping when you first learn to snap, it's very mechanical and it's very methodical.

Okay, so you start putting your fingers together and you're like, and you're trying to create a sound.

And then you finally get one, It's like such a sigh of relief, I finally got one.

And then you keep practicing the same thing over and over and you get really good at it.

And then you kind of Don't have to think about it so much.

It's kind of running on autopilot.

And then you can start to do it fast without any problems.

You're just letting it happen.

There's nothing impeding it, so to speak.

It's almost reactionary.

To this point, we've worked on impact to understand what needs to happen down at the moment of truth with the golf club, with the club face.

We've also worked on having a little bit of control and release together, moving belt high to belt high to understand, okay, well, I can have some speed and some control with very little effort.

The problem is, is when we start working on these golf concepts, we start missing the forest a little bit through the trees.

We kind of forget that the golf swing is a golf swing.

that it's athletic.

It's a movement.

You have to think about the swing as in a mechanical and feel cycle.

You're going to work on components and you're going to get your mechanics down.

Okay.

And so you start to get your mechanics down and then the mechanics start to round their way back to feel.

The feel starts to pick up some pace.

Then you go back to mechanics, refine, and you kind of go on this wheel.

of working on your golf swing.

At this point, we've spent a lot of time on mechanics, okay?

And I'm not saying that today or Saturday's session that I don't want you thinking about mechanics, but you can get caught up thinking, okay, I've got to get my pressure shift over here to my trail side, not rotate my hips too much, my trail shoulder's going behind me, keep my trail arm straight, allow for a little bit of flexion in my elbow, which you don't need a whole bunch at that point or any at all.

And you can see, like, my brain's already going a mile a minute, and I've already even been like, oh, wait a minute, I don't want any flexion there.

So you start to think about these positions as you go through them too much, okay, versus being like, no, I want to just have a little weight, rotate my shoulders, let the club swing up.

It allows some things to happen.

It's like wrist setting the backswing.

It's a little bit more of a byproduct because of the weight of the club.

So tonight, I want to try to put a little bit of athleticism back in you.

So that you can start to feel your way through this and so that you can start to have a little bit of speed.

Now, one of the biggest things when it comes down to it at the end of the day, why players don't have speed, it's because they're using their arms.

All right.

We already had comments in the chat that I didn't realize how much I was overworking my arms.

And if you start to break down like all the stats, like Tour Pro stats, amateur stats, you know whether they're a scratch, five handicap, 20 handicap.

And you start to look at relative distance.

It doesn't matter what technology has done in the last 20, 30 years, everybody is stuck in this kind of 93 94 mile an hour phase with their driver.

Okay, except for the upper echelon, so to speak.

And that's because they don't realize that they're powering it with their arms.

And the arms are only going to be, are only going to create so much speed.

I can only create so much with my arms going back and forth like this.

At some point, they're going to max out.

And if your swing is relegated to just using arms, you're not going to have any speed.

Okay, because that's as much as you can power it.

Now, unless you get some big old forearms like Pi Pi, Yeah, you can have some, but it's still not gonna be that great.

You have to learn how to generate speed from your body, okay?

You have to learn how to move your body in a sequence that powers thing.

As you know, it takes 32 pounds of muscle to create 100 mile an hour club head speed.

And you just don't have that in your arms.

You have to get it from other sources.

You need to get leverage from the ground.

You need to recruit more muscle fiber in your core.

You need to load things.

Things need to fire.

Things need to contract.

And you can't get that from here.

And most amateurs are just stuck just swinging with their arms.

They never engage anything.

I did a swing review today for one of my students, a super nice guy.

And he said the same thing.

He's like, all right, Craig, I'm working on my phase three, but I can't get it above 125 yards.

I was like, all right, well, let me take a look at it.

And when I looked at it, all I saw was he was using his arms in the backswing.

And as he started to come down, his legs weren't firing.

And his arms are doing all the downswing.

And so what ended up happening, armed it back, cast it coming down.

And I said, well, you can't get the club head speed because you're relegating your speed only to one source, and that's your arms and hands.

And so if you start to put into your brain, if you want power, you've got to do it from the one thing that doesn't create power.

You have to get rid of using the one thing that doesn't create power, which is your arms.

Okay.

I don't have very big arms.

You know, back in my playing days, I was about 165.

I'm roughly about 5'10".

And I'm not that big a guy, but I could still have 118, 119 club head speed.

It's not because I have it here.

It used to drive one of my roommates crazy.

That was 6'3", about 220.

He said, I don't understand why you're two clubs longer than me.

It's because I'm not trying to use this power source.

So how do we get that as the real question if we think about the throw the ball drill?

The throw the ball drill has been on the website, I mean, since its first iteration of the website.

Because it tries to make you move through positions versus think about musicians.

You can't start to develop speed.

if you're thinking thinking is slow, you're thinking about a process, it's slow.

So we have to kind of make it a little bit athletic now.

I know some players were never thrown, never trained to throw a golf ball, or never trained to throw a ball, period, so we need to work on that to develop some sequence.

So tonight what we're going to start out with is we're going to start out with our arm and we're going to throw some balls.

And then we're going to do it with the club and then we're going to do it with both arms.

And we're going to start to get the feel of how we're going to generate more speed with our body and with our legs.

Okay, so if you're at home and you got a foam ball, you can do this with me if you want.

If not just kind of air, do this.

And I want you to think about these things.

Because you can tell a lot about your swing and what's going on and what's good and what's bad.

Just from this drill alone, so the throw the ball drill, as you've seen in the videos, we have our checkpoints now.

I've got it on the boot camp PDF as well.

The first thing that we're going to do is, I want you to take your trail arm, elevate it kind of to the base of your pectoral, and add a little bit of flexion.

You don't need any more than about 90 degrees, right?

And I'll show you from this view.

You don't need any more than about 90 degrees.

I don't want you like this.

And I want you to take this, and I want you to put your weight on your trail leg and rotate your shoulders.

If you move too much right now, don't worry about it.

We'll button it up.

But you're going to elevate, add some flexion, and rotate your shoulders.

This is the first place where I start to see people mess up this drill, is they don't realize how much they're allowing their arm to swing and not staying connected to their body.

If you want good speed, your scapula must remain in the proper position and according with your spine, because when that scapula moves down and in and starts to rotate clockwise, it connects to your spine.

It's going to be how you're able to add speed from your body.

So add some flexion in this position.

And when you get here, load into your trail leg, rotate your shoulders.

Now look at my arm right here.

My elbow is pointed down and it's still in front of my chest.

It's not like this.

When you do this, I don't want your arm rearing back like this.

That's not teaching you how to add power.

This is teaching you how to work your arms again.

A little elevation, a little bit of flexion, load into your.

Trail side rotate.

And when you get to this position, the mantra I've used with my students for decades now is kind of shift post release.

That's what we're basically doing here.

I want you to step, okay, now notice, when I step, two things happen.

I'm putting my weight on this side towards the ball of my foot, and when I do this, what else happens?

My hips start to square.

Okay, So when you get up to here, you get into position, I want you to step.

And when you step, I want the weight to go a little bit towards the ball of your foot.

And I want you to allow your hips to square with the weight on the lead side.

Then from here, we're going to post or pivot.

You're going to push into the ground towards your heel to clear that hip and straighten the leg.

To this point, have I said do anything with your arm?

All I've done, step, pivot.

Now where's my arm right now?

My arm is now in the delivery position.

I've allowed the weight, I've allowed my hips to bring my arm down to here.

And when we get here, we step, pivot, throw.

Okay?

And when we throw, we throw it at the ball on the ground, so to speak.

So if I had a ball right here, like that.

your destination or aiming point is here, throw it at that ball on the ground.

I missed it by that much.

It's not get up here towards the top, use your arm, then use your legs, or use your legs, hang on, hang on, hang on, throw it this way.

It's step, pivot, throw.

Step, pivot, throw.

Okay.

This is going to start to develop some kinematic sequence.

Okay, for those of you that have thrown a ball before, this is going to be very easy.

You would really be surprised how many people haven't done this, though.

We elevate, we add some flexion, we load and rotate, step, pivot, throw.

And when you do this, notice and feel the sequencing of how the legs drive everything down.

And it's just the letting go of the ball.

This is starting to teach you, not only sequence, but that you don't power it with your arm.

And this is why everybody's stuck swinging at slow speeds because their throw of the ball drill would look like this really with their golf club.

They would get to here and they would just go like that.

And that's why they can't get it to go any faster because they're just relegating to trying to power it with their arm.

I'm trying to use the momentum of the weight.

and the plant, and the hips getting open, and the posting up to trigger the throw of this, okay?

So at first, it's okay.

You can make some big strides like this.

You can get here, step, pivot, throw.

Doesn't bother me.

Step, pivot, throw.

Start to develop how you'd create speed.

This right here is the problem of why when players say, You teach a lot of lead side based swings or a lot of lead side based positions.

Why don't I just go back and start playing on the other side of the golf ball?

Because I'm already really good at doing everything with my trail hands.

So why don't I just train that as being the controller?

Switch over the opposite side of the golf ball.

Because this would be the hard part of teaching.

Because you've done, if you're right handed, you've done some type of sequencing.

With this side and develop some type of kinematic sequence with this side your entire life now.

To switch to this side and be like, Okay, now I'm going to do it.

Here is very hard.

You can get it, but getting some speed and getting some pace with it takes a enormous amount of time.

Okay, so if you've been with Rotary before and you're like, Well, Craig, I can release the club and I can do all these things.

I just don't hit it anywhere.

It's because you're solely just using your lead side.

You forgot that there is a trail side part to this equation.

You need to load, rotate, shift, post.

This energy is traveling passively through the trail arm.

Notice I'm not getting here and then just throwing my arm like this.

I'm allowing everything to create the speed.

I'm allowing it to transfer through my arm to the ball, right?

Especially for a pitcher or a quarterback.

If you're here and you're stepping and throwing and releasing, okay, you're releasing it.

You're not holding on to it and trying to kind of shot, put it out there.

Okay?

So with this motion, I want you to start to develop just a little bit of athleticism.

Add some elevation, add some flexion, load, rotate, step, pivot and let it throw.

This will get you to not think about some things for a second.

But you have to think about just like this right here.

When you get a golf club back in your hand, your goal isn't to try to make that golf club move as fast as possible.

That's you doing it with your arms and hands.

That's you trying to make this move fast.

Well, how come when I hit the ball far or Anthony hits the ball far or Chuck hits the ball far or you see somebody, it's.

Like, well, they don't look like they're working that hard to hit it that far.

Because we're not.

I'm not trying to get it by, I'm not trying to power the club.

The club will move fast if I do the other things correctly.

I don't have to, I don't have to worry about that.

Okay.

So if you can get this drill, then you can start to sequence these positions.

All right.

In front, step pivot, let it release.

In front step, pivot, let it release.

This is the exact same motion we use in the golf swing.

All right, for those people that are afraid of getting too trail side dominant because they want to be a lead side release, or vice versa.

I'm a lead side releaser.

I don't want to be trail side dominant.

There's two arms in the swing, okay, there's two sides of your body, we got to use both sides if we want to have control and power.

I've taught you the control so far, now I'm teaching you how to have a little bit of speed in.

It doesn't mean I'm manufacturing everything with this, I'm allowing the speed to get transferred passively through my arm and hand.

When you think pitching is a great example of this.

Because if I were to get here and just throw like this, I could only go.

So I'd never, I'd never have that 100 mile an hour fastball.

All right.

They may call me Wild Thing because my accuracy would be out the window, but they ain't calling me Ricky Vaughn because I ain't getting up to 100 miles an hour.

The only way I can do that is by getting everything, using the momentum of my hips to get everything powering through.

I'm not doing it through my arm and hand.

So that's the first thing you have to realize.

So if you can start to develop a little bit of sense with this, okay, just doing the ball, then I want you to get the club and I want you to put it in your right hand.

Don't worry about it.

Even if you're over the toppers, this is helping you.

Okay.

Let's see a note just in case.

Well, I'll answer that one later, Paul.

That's a pretty in-depth question.

Sorry.

I saw a big blip and just, I have to make sure that everything's going on.

So what I want you to do is if you have a club, I want you to grab the club because you need to get a sense and feel of this club swinging, but you not being the master.

I just spent a session.

And you spent the last few days training yourself to have faith and allowing the club to rotate.

And giving into the release God.

So I'm not trying to get you to be back being a master again.

I want you to start to feel this with just a little pace.

So from this position, what I want you to do, you can either start here, just as I did with this drill, and preset it, shift post, let it release.

You can do that, preset it, shift post, let it release, or if you want, step pivot.

But what the goal is, I want you to be able to do this from the ground.

And since we have such a limited time, that's going to be where I pick this up.

So I want you to take the trail hand.

I want you to get up into your setup position, and I want you to make a backswing to about parallel to the ground height, all right?

No need to go way over here like this, about parallel to the ground height, all right?

I want you to get to this position with rotation in your shoulders, and I want you to think about the step, pivot, and release.

If you want the step, have at it.

If you want to challenge yourself, just lift the feet.

And what I mean by that is get to here and just allow your lead foot to lift a little bit.

You know, just kind of come off the ground, kind of like a Nicholas, where you're here so you can really plant with authority.

Here, really plant with authority.

But I want you thinking about your legs, okay?

You need to start to feel how the legs and the pulling up of the leverage from the ground, the momentum from the weight.

The hips moving up and back, moving away, are triggering.

Okay, I'm storing, now I'm releasing.

I'm pulling that leverage.

You need to get the feel and the sense.

Here, step pivot, let it release.

If you want to pick up your feet like this, you can go like this.

I've got no problem with that.

That helps you to start to feel how to move the pressure and develop pacing, no problem.

For players that are stuck with over the top and stuff like that, what you'll typically see is you start doing this and before your foot's even planted back on the lead side, you're already going like this.

You're not following the sequence of it.

I haven't said at one point in time today, get up here to the top and your first move be your right shoulder, your right elbow, your right anything from this right side going this way.

I haven't said anything like that.

I've said I just want you to literally get here, plant, pivot.

Huh.

I haven't swung my arm to this position.

It's been moved to this position because I physically can't do anything else.

Now watch what happens.

Oh, looks like I'm at the golf ball now.

So I'm here, step, pivot, let it release.

And just get a sense of feel of how to develop pacing with this.

And what you'll start to notice a little bit is if you want to speed up the club, what do you Fire with your hand more.

For anybody that thought that, even had an inclination of that 10 push -ups right now.

If you want to speed it up, what do you got to use more of?

What do you got to be a little bit more dynamic with?

Your legs.

Up here to the top.

And so when you get here to this position, be a little bit more dynamic.

With this, you can load with a little bit more squat, and you can post and clear the hip.

With authority, you know, announce your presence with a little more authority.

This isn't my arm, this is me just being a little bit more dynamic.

I got a few more reps than you, but if you want to have more speed, use your legs more.

If Caleb's in the room, I don't want to talk about basketball.

If he is, I still don't want to talk about it.

Basketball is a really good reference for this.

So in basketball, if we think about a free throw versus a three-pointer, okay?

So if I'm shooting a free throw, I'm going to have a little bit of legs, and as I push from the ground, That power is going to go through here, through my arms and hands, and then I'm going to release.

I'm going to have a nice release.

This is me shooting a free throw.

What happens when I go back to the three-point line?

When I go back to the three-point line, do I make that same kind of knees and release like this?

Do I make the same kind of knees and then speed up my arm and hand?

What happens if I did the same body motion and then sped up my arm and hand like that?

Yeah, the ball may go further.

but now I'm never going to make a shot.

What do I do?

My free throw to a three -pointer, I engage my legs more, and I still have that nonchalant release.

I'm still releasing it at the end, but I use my legs a little bit more to get a little bit more pop on the ball.

Everything just kind of gradually increased in pace.

I didn't just start swiping my arm at it.

That's what happens with this club.

That's what happens in your swing.

This is why you're stuck.

at your swing speeds is because instead of getting here and saying, okay, I've already gotten the mantra from rotary that I've got to step, pivot, then throw.

That sequence can't change.

So how do I get this to go faster?

Well, I'm going to make this a little bit more dynamically.

I might add a little bit more squat.

I might move through my pressure shifts a little faster.

And that's going to be how I get a lot more speed.

It's not from this.

Okay.

It starts from here.

And this goes back to like being tired.

If you get super fatigued, you get five shots, you're like, ugh.

Because you're trying to get good distance.

Why would you be getting fatigued?

I can sit here and do that all day long.

You're getting fatigued because you're using your arms.

Okay.

So get the club right hand.

Keep it in front.

A little bit parallel to the ground, with some rotation.

And I want you to think about your step pivot and throw.

If you're still picking up the feet right now, that's fine.

If not, keep them on the ground.

Here, step pivot, let it throw here, step pivot, let it throw.

Now what you?

If?

Especially if you have something on the ground right here.

Or you're filming yourself.

You will start to see where you go wrong in your sequence, and probably where you go wrong in your golf swing.

Because you'll film yourself and you'll see it, you may not even think it right now.

You'll get to here and you'll see that your arm and hand get all the way down here.

Before you've shifted your weight and before you've posted up, that's probably.

That's on the top, top, top list of.

What Anthony and myself and Chuck see on a daily basis is that players bring.

They're so they're such in a rush to get this club from the top down to here.

That by the time the club gets here, their legs haven't even had a chance to work.

Okay?

And you need that time.

We have a video on the site called the Dump Truck and the Drag Racer.

You've got to buy a little bit more time.

Okay?

So when you're here, the worst thing you could ever do.

Trying to have power is try to speed up your arms and hands, and yes, I know max hand speed is going to be between here and here.

All right, but you don't do that by manually trying to do so when you're here and you start to come down.

My arm is being brought by my step or shift, it's being brought in front of me by my post, and now I'm delivering it.

Okay, You need to film this sequencing.

If something doesn't feel right or it's not getting faster, go take a look at it.

See if the first thing that you do is get your arm and hand down here, where you start pulling or racing or spinning.

And if that's something that you struggle with, test yourself out.

Get up here and stop.

Just stop right here.

Don't move anything.

And start to shift your weight in post.

And notice that your arm and your shoulders are going to start to come with you.

I didn't move that.

I didn't go like this.

I allowed my legs and my sequencing to bring my arm and hand down.

This is going to be how you start to generate lag.

This is going to be how you start to shallow out the club.

This is going to be how you speed things up.

Now, when I talked about earlier about the force of the trees and being overly mechanical, this isn't something that you can be crazy mechanical with.

If you want speed, it's about going through the motions with it.

But you got to start to feel this.

So I want you to kind of turn your brain off a little bit.

I want you to think about being a kid again.

It's so fun for us instructors.

We can go to a driving range and we can literally just be like, yep, that's the kid I want to teach.

That's the kid I want to teach.

Because kids lack what?

They lack strength, right?

They're little, right?

They haven't developed yet.

So when they're young, they're grabbing this club.

And when they're grabbing this club, this thing weighs 100 pounds of them because their arms are about as thin as this shaft.

But you can see them, even though they might be moving all over the place.

You can see their legs automatically start to engage.

They're allowing these things to happen, and you can watch these seven, eight, nine, ten year olds start to develop all this crazy speed and good swings.

When never worrying, never being taught a mechanic.

Because they're just allowing their brain to naturally figure out.

Okay, if I want this thing to go fast, I've got to work my legs because I don't have the strength in my arms and hands.

Then what happens?

You get older, we get stronger.

And we start shifting it from here, and we start moving it up to here.

And this becomes our main power source.

You wonder why?

You're like, I can't hit it as good as I did when I was a kid.

So that's what we're trying to do here.

You know, you can use my analogies of basketball or baseball or whatever.

It's the sequencing and it's the moving through these positions, even if, even if I don't teach you anything, Okay.

I don't teach you where your club face should be right here, how many degrees of wrist set, or where your head should be, or anything like that.

And this is the only thing you get from this boot camp.

If it's the only thing you get from rotary, is the fact that I'm going to move weight to this side, and when I get weight to this side, I'm going to shift and post.

If I do nothing with my arms and hands or even think of, even if you just get that, you'd be super surprised how much better you would be because there's going to be something in your swing where that isn't happening.

For those that lose tush line, I'm up here.

What's this doing?

First of all, it's getting my weight over here and it's allowing my hips to square.

All right.

First, the first move in the golf swing, in the downswing, when I'm up here at the top, as I start to recenter, Is this lead knee externally rotates?

Okay, it's the first move.

This lead knee externally rotates.

All right, so when I'm making this little step, what automatically happens?

It's a lot easier when you step, this lead knee externally rotates.

As I start to pivot, well, look at what happens.

I get to hear my weights here.

My hips are still back now.

I'm training.

Okay, now I'm going to post.

Well, look at, look at where my left hip's going.

It's going behind me.

Now I've taught myself how to maintain touchline.

I didn't have to literally do anything but fix how I'm stepping and pivoting, okay?

And when we start to think about the club bottoming out, gaining momentum, having that speed, I'm taking my hip and moving up and back, okay?

which triggers the club to go down and out.

So if I'm really aggressive with this post and I can get my glutes to fully engage and fire, I can really use the centripetal into centrifugal force to really pop that club head.

All right.

I think I like a figure skater.

It's an easy way to kind of picture it.

I've shown a student the other day.

You all have probably seen this video on the website.

And I said, look, I was like, this is my number one training aid.

Now, obviously, you don't hit balls with it or do anything like that, but I love to hit students with this when they're misbehaving.

I'm a big fan of negative reinforcement.

If anybody ever comes for an in-person lesson, I apologize ahead of time.

Big fan of it.

So if we think about this.

To get this to move faster, did I start going all over the place and doing all.

I'm making these nice, tight motions, just like my body, to create a lot of speed and a lot of simplicity to it.

I'm continuing to move in the opposite direction of where this ball is constantly, but I'm not making any wasted motion.

If I'm starting from the top.

my force of movement, let's say I switch it up to here and I'm trying to move this, what happens?

This is over the top, casting, you name it.

All right.

But if I'm moving my body in the correct sequence and in the correct way, I can always maintain plane and I can speed it up with ease.

Now I can get into that one on physics and swing plane and all that.

It's a little bit better tool to that, but I want you to see to make that go fast.

Did I really exert a ton more?

No.

To speed up my club, all I did, I started firing my legs a little bit more.

I didn't speed up my arms and hands.

I didn't do anything crazy like that.

So I should have a club around here somewhere.

So once you can get the sequence with this, and once you can do it with the club, the next evolutionary step is to get both hands on it.

And the goal would be.

We load and rotate, get the lead arm to about parallel here, and now I want you to do the same thing that you're doing in the throw of the ball.

Okay, I want you to let it go.

And what do I mean by that?

I want you to get lead arm parallel, shift post, let it Where's my trail arm right now?

It's the same exact position that it was when I was throwing my golf ball.

Here, shift post, let it go.

Here, shift post.

Let it go This doesn't mean power with your arm, you do not power with your lead arm or arm, period.

This means that I'm moving shift post, letting it go.

I'm just introducing my trail hand to still get the same feel of how power transfers passively through my arm, not actively.

You're never trying to push it out there, okay, That's weak.

It's not very powerful.

Can you add more muscular effort and all that in a trail side release?

Yes.

We'll talk about that Saturday.

But the weakest thing would be trying to take this club and powering it out there.

So if you can get this, where you're getting up to here, shift post, let it go.

Here, shift post, let it go.

This is going to help you speed up the club and learn how to let it go.

But also, if you're an over-the-topper and all that, and you're doing this version of the drill, As you start to work through here, well, this is going to help you work your legs without taking over so much.

Because I don't, I don't see anybody go like that very often.

So it helps you start to train speed, but not get the trail side overactive in the wrong direction.

Okay, once you can kind of graduate from there, then it should be here.

L shift, post l l l notice.

When I get down here into impact, I'm done, I.

We've already trained this, okay, should be posted up.

Shoulders gonna be relatively square, hips open 35 45 degrees.

And what we want to do is we want to have an L to L shaped swing.

Okay, if you got a seven iron, we should be able to get that about 150 yards.

I know there's going to be some genetics, I know there's going to be some age limit it, you know, limited ability, so to speak, rotational wise and all that, you know, like for me, I got a terrible left hip.

I can't use it as much as I would like.

Um, I don't know some people, they have, you know, bad backs and this and that.

So I understand there's going to be some fine lines with this, but you should be able to hit your seven iron 150 yards to hit a seven iron 150 yards.

I wish I had a little, my little meter here is literally.

Like, that's my 150-yard shot.

Like, if I wanted to hit this 150 yards, that's what it would look like.

Does it really look like I'm doing that much effort?

I mean, I know my yardage isn't my pace like that.

This is a 150-yard shot.

I'm using a combination of my legs, proper leverage in my wrist, okay?

And the goal is going to be to get it 150 yards.

And in that 10-yard dispersion, 8 to 10 yards, left or right?

Okay.

Now, if you go to the driving range, you start doing this.

You're like, hey, feels good.

It's only going 100 yards.

It feels like I'm doing everything I should be doing.

What is the first thing I want you to think about?

What's the very first thing I want to pop into your head?

You go to the driving range, you're feeling good.

You're like, all right, I did my phase ones blam, all right, 10, 15 yards, that thing's on a string.

I did my phase two.

I got to nine And you're like, all right, I'm going to get to my phase three.

Huh.

That only went about 20 yards longer than my phase two.

But I don't feel like I have any more in the tank.

What's the first thing I want you to, what's the first thing I want you to pop into your head?

I must be using my arms.

because that is the only way you're stuck not having the club head speed that you want, is you're relegating your club head speed back to your arm.

So more than likely, if you look at your sequencing, you're going to see, oh, yep, I'm releasing it.

I didn't finish my post.

Or I got over here to my lead arm, and when I got to this position, I never let my arms go.

I hadn't mentioned this tonight, but you can also go the other direction.

I started to shift and post, and I try to leave my arms back here so long that my body and everything's open and my lead arms getting pressing.

I never let anything react well, not dead, not overly tight, I'm letting my arms react to my weight and post to create the snap.

But if you go out there and you're not getting your speed, you're like, Craig told me this.

All I'm doing is I'm that guy with the throw of the ball, drill or gal, or whoever that's going like this.

And he's getting all the speed in his arms.

And that's why it's not going anywhere.

And until I change that, I'm never going to have any speed.

I don't care.

I mean, you can go work out.

You can start working on those forearms and stuff, but I'm not going to have any speed if I don't change my mindset that my arms don't create speed.

Okay.

It doesn't come from my arms.

It comes from my sequencing.

It comes from my legs.

It comes from my lag.

60% or more of your club head speed literally just comes from your wrist.

Literally just comes from your lag, all right?

The lag in the club, all right?

So I need you to change that.

Now, that doesn't necessarily mean, okay?

that you got to hear and you look at it, you're like, wow, I did everything correctly coming down.

It looks like I'm doing it correctly.

Well, what happened to your backswing?

Did you just take your arms and go like this?

And then you did a good shift and post?

We didn't wind anything.

Remember the backswing, you're spending this whole time getting a little bit of weight, a little bit of momentum and recruiting muscle fiber.

So if you just took your arms to here and then you sequenced with your legs, yeah, you might get your 125, your 130.

You may get 150.

But you're still going to tap out, especially when you get to the longer clubs.

What's going on?

It doesn't necessarily mean I'm just using my arms in my downswing.

I might just be using my arms in my backswing.

And that's why no matter what I do coming down, since all I did was use my arms coming up here, it doesn't matter how much I race my body coming down, I still don't have speed.

Okay.

So you can always just kind of think about that.

Where am I losing it?

Or when you lose, what's the first thing pop into your head and figure out where it is that you're using that.

And so hopefully what this starts to do, or what this drill and what this does, is it starts to make it back athletic again for you.

We start to round a little bit from our mechanics, and we start to put it a little bit more in feel.

Okay, I can develop a little sense of rhythm and rhyme with this.

I can do this.

I can get this feel, picking up my feet, moving through here.

I can start to develop a little sense and rhythm.

I can start to get out of my own way.

I can delete some thoughts right now.

Okay.

And the beauty about this is, especially if you struggle with over the top, you struggle with early extension, you'll see on like the last page of the PDF, you know, I have over the top casting, reverse pivot, early extension.

It's because this drill fix a lot of that.

If I'm getting here and I'm kind of stepping into this side, it's going to be really hard for, I don't even think I can do it.

It's going to be really hard for me to reverse pivot.

It's not going to really work out that well.

For early extenders, this is going to teach you to shift and use your legs.

You're not going to get here and then step and then push off this way.

You're going to miss the target.

You're going to miss the ball.

You're going to get here.

If anything, players are going to step their back like this.

Okay.

So it's going to help out with that.

It's going to help out with the shallowing of the club because you're allowing your arms to kind of chill out.

Until you get done with your lower half, which is going to start to create secondary tilt, as we talked about earlier, which will help you start to shallow out the plane.

It's going to help with casting, because your first movement from the top isn't from where and where, isn't from your hand nor your shoulders.

Which, that's how we go fishing, right?

No fishing here unless we're using dynamite might be able to get me to go fishing if we can go with some dynamite.

So, with that being said, I hope all this made sense.

I know I'm a little bit harsh on players during this or during this phase, but I don't want you to get stuck and I want you to train.

I want you to understand that speed isn't, it's not this myth.

It's not this unicorn to try to attain.

It's relatively simple.

The problem is is you've spent your whole career getting in the way of having speed, and the reason you've done that is the same reason.

I hurt my club at speed, you know, when I started reworking my golf swing earlier on, my club head, speed started dropping because I got so obsessed with this club head position.

That here, here, here.

Versus sequencing and moving through positions and allowing them to happen.

And it's because we get so caught up on this silly thing.

We start thinking so much about what's going on with us that we start to get our own way a little bit.

And we kind of need to get back to being young with the swing again, to making it natural.

You know, when you see players that have simple swings, they look like they're not doing a whole bunch and all that, it's typically because.

They're not doing a whole bunch, and they're using very little effort, but they've kind of realized the fact that the more I try to do, as in kind of brute force effort -wise, the more I kind of screw things up on my own.

And I'll leave you with this before we get to questions.

It's kind of like the person, maybe you, the person you go out and play with.

He says, oh, I'm going to hit the long ball today, whether in a scramble or a tournament or a best ball or something.

And the guy on the first tee gets, and he's just swinging out of his shoes all day, trying to hit, you know, trying to hit it deep.

And he's hitting it all over the map.

And at this point in time, by the end of the round, you're like, all right, I can't watch any more of this.

And you come up to him on 18, or he has an epiphany.

Because, all right, I'm just going to make a smooth swing here.

I'm just going to try to get this one in play.

We've been searching for my golf ball all day.

So I'm just going to get up on 18.

I'm just going to make a nice smooth swing, get it out there.

And all of a sudden, not only does it stay in the fairway, it's like that was the longest one I hit all day, but I felt like it didn't do anything.

Might be some truth to that.

All right.

Thank you.

If you have any questions, please stick around.

I will be happy to answer.

And as always, much appreciative of spending your evening with me.

Your homework between now and then is to start to understand this kinetic sequence.

Okay, this kinetic chain of how to develop speed and try to work into this L to L position, still sticking with the same fundamentals.

Now, if you do this, And what we did on Phase one and two, completely break down.

You go back to phase one and two, all right, until you can kind of challenge yourself a little bit, all right.

AP Physics I'm still in level one class.

Hey, we can talk about physics all day long, who you want to talk about, all right?

I've got a lot of things popping up here.

Uh, let's see.

Um, I'm going to start with Gerald's comment, so if I, if I've missed anybody, my apologies, put it back up, I'm going to start with Gerald's.

Is the throw the ball drill the essence of trail side release, or is that a different motion?

Is it the essence of trail side release?

Not necessarily the throw the ball drill?

Is the essence of how to sequence the body to add power?

There's more that goes into being a trail side releaser, and there's more that you can add to it when it comes to the golf club.

For trail side releasers, will it help you train being one?

Absolutely.

I'm a lead side releaser, but I still do the throw the ball drill.

It's more about sequencing the body and how to learn how to use the legs to transfer energy more than the perfect kind of releasing of the club.

So it's more about getting the hips and the sequencing than just.

Being the first iteration of teaching a trail side release.

Uh, the power is at the bottom of the swing, at impact.

Yeah, the the only time you need speed in the swing, Jason, The only time you need speed is between here and here.

What good does having speed at the top do nothing?

Because by the time you've, you're done, you've already expended it.

From here to here is going to be where you see the vast majority of speed, where you want it.

It's in the last three feet of the swing.

Typical tour pro will have about a 70 -mile-an-hour gain right there with a six iron.

Tom, where did the Pat's helmet on the bookshelf, where did you get that?

I played in a charity event in Maryland, just outside Baltimore.

In 2002, so this was after the New England's first Super Bowl.

Uh, so that one's signed by Tom, and obviously back then nobody thought anything like that.

I got it at a charity event and since it was the first Super Bowl and the first one I've had, that one ever since might have gone up in value since then.

Being in Atlanta, I don't let anybody see that, though.

You're welcome.

Jason.

All right.

Charles hands high in the backswing, over toes and not heel, as I've been told in this drill.

Or in general, you're talking more about full backswing, that's Saturday.

In the backswing.

You want your arm, your hands relative, a little bit more over your ankle joint.

Being out in front of your toes is going to be way too far in front.

Can you talk about lead thumb push?

Lead thumb push.

That would be taking this thumb on the club and losing your angle.

So lead thumb push typically comes from trying to overly control the club.

So when players get to here or they start to get into a full swing, The grip and the wrist get very tight and it feels very powerful because think about it this way.

When you're up here at the top, the club starts to back in a little bit on the thumb.

And so you start to get a lot of pressure there.

And when you start to get that pressure, you want to get rid of that pressure.

And it feels actually fast to get rid of that pressure.

But when you load muscles, you get max load and wants to get rid of it.

So when this thumb starts to get the pressure of this golf club, it's natural to feel like you want to start pushing this away or you want to get down here and you want to start pushing the club to get more speed.

But then you're relegating things back to your arms and hands.

So lead thumb push.

When you start to sequence coming down, you've got to take from that tension level of up here and you've got to go back a little bit closer to that dead territory.

My arms and hands are chilled right here.

My lag is going to increase and it's not going to fire until I start to use my legs.

It's usually just the tension aspect.

If there was a training aid or a magic weapon or anything like that to get rid of it, I'd already be retired.

It's typically just tension, my friend.

With the throw the ball drill with the club, should your hand be at your trail quad at the conclusion of post-up?

You tell me.

When I start the sequence coming down, the weight's going to bring my arms down, the post is going to bring my arm to right in front, just as I'm starting to enter kind of my trail thigh right here.

If I got to here and I sequence like this, my arm and hand's still back down here, now I have to use my whole arm and hand to get back down to the golf ball.

It's way too far to travel.

Or if I use my arm and hand and now I use my legs, now you can see how I'd be way too far out ahead.

So typically it's going to be right around that trail thigh.

The shifting and posting to there.

It's going to be where you start to get that.

Anthony, I think Charles got you.

Charles, I think you're correct.

And may be leading to over the top of the club face.

Ira, cause of hitting near the heel with the driver.

Doesn't really have to do with phase three, Ira, but I'll answer it.

Typically hitting the heel from the driver is caused by two things.

It's push from this trail hip.

And when you have a driver, especially with the radius, when you push from the trail hip, what typically happens is not only does the hip come in eating up space, but that push also changes your secondary tilt.

So you get too much secondary tilt, you have early extension, and now you're swinging.

too far into out, which will move it out towards the heel.

Because now you've got two faults that are telling the heel of the club to go towards the golf ball.

Eric, thanks C, recorded myself a couple times and wanted to make sure I had it correct.

No problems, that's what you need to do.

If you're not recording yourself or using a mirror or doing anything like that, you're doing yourself a disservice.

So you have to have feedback.

I don't care who it is.

You have to have feedback.

Okay?

And the same thing when it comes down to releasing.

I don't care if you're a lead side releaser.

I don't care if you're a trail side releaser.

This shouldn't change.

I'm a lead side releaser.

So I get down here.

I control everything on my lead side.

But this drill is how I learn how to sequence my legs and develop a sense of speed.

Lead side, your power side.

Or, excuse me.

Lead side, your control side.

Trail side, your power side.

All right.

Rob, appreciate it.

Paul, how is the power transfer from the body through your arms and into the club head?

Is it a matter of centrifugal force, rotational torque, that creates a counterweight kind of going away?

Yeah, Paul.

So, if you think about that.

I mean, you don't want to get into where you're.

I don't want to get too crazy on this.

Remember what's happening in the downswing is everything's accelerating to decelerate.

And so you're getting this kind of independent acceleration, all right?

So I know that kind of looks like a flip, but you're getting this kind of independent acceleration.

So when you make your backswing right here, your sapulus starts to move down and in, which starts to connect with your spine.

So when you start to shift and come down, it stays with your spine.

And as you're pulling up the leverage from the ground, you can get into parametric acceleration and all these things.

As you start to sequence this, you're accelerating to peak, so to speak, and now decel.

You're slowing.

To get the club to accelerate.

So you can think of this kind of like double hinge pendulum, so to speak.

Or the, uh, the Trebuchet, if you google or watch, kind of the trebuchet.

That's a really good way of saying that, but I don't really want to get into parametric acceleration and all that.

But when you're, when you're thinking about centrifugal force, that false force, yes, that's why, like, if you know, if I think about, you know.

Centripetal force, my, which is more going to be your kind of rotational force right here.

When I start to spin my shoulders, I'm using centripetal force, which the effect on the golf club is going to be my centrifugal force.

Okay, p first, then f, all right.

So that's going to be what happens.

In effect.

I'm here.

And with the rotation, the centripetal motion and the slamming on the brakes, the effect is going to be The Centrifugal Force on the club.

That's why the more dynamic and powerful I am with my post, moving up and back is going to trigger the club to go down and out.

Because I'm using the centripetal to turn it into centrifugal.

Physics 102.

William, thanks for having me.

Thank you, thank you.

I appreciate that.

All right.

No more questions?

Nothing?

Nada?

We got all this?

I'm surprised nobody made me hit one.

I think somebody in the last boot camp, you got to do a phase three now that we're getting into this.

But the only problem is I have to have a little bit of a lower trajectory.

See, if I launch this, Jack's going to die.

Or Tiger.

I figure if I hit daily, he's going to be fine.

He's indestructible.

So if we're doing this drill right here, we want to get L, shift, post, let it release.

So we should be going L, L.

You can hear just a little bit of speed to it.

And that's not even a real golf ball.

Apollo, thanks, Greg.

Can you please recall me where I can find the material on the website?

Which material?

The PDFs are in this right here.

So if you go to the top, the handouts are there for the bootcamp.

And there's a video list right there.

Just go to the magnifying glass and put in just like the first word of one of the videos you want to see.

Everything will populate.

Member, menu tree, member tools, my purchases for replays and joining.

Enjoyed the Craig getting his act together videos.

I haven't finished with that yet, Charles.

Don't worry.

I will be back.

I think I just put a dent in my wall.

I will be back.

Holidays, traveling, weather.

Weather in Atlanta has been miserable for about two months.

I love the fact that we're getting rain right now, but I will be back.

I think after this boot camp, you'll see me back in action.

Tom, so the follow through from the right hand is passive.

Yeah.

You don't need your right hand.

I don't need it.

Now, if I'm a trail side releaser, which we'll talk a little bit about on Saturday, you're going to be keeping it just a little bit more active as you're using just a little bit of push from there.

But it's.

It's like this moment in time of a window.

Not like I'm still here and I'm still being active with it on the way through.

The ball's gone.

It doesn't care.

Once the ball's gone, it doesn't matter.

Okay.

With that said, I think I will skedaddle.

I see people are leaving the room.

I don't see any other questions.

Anything that I missed, Anthony?

All good?

Hopefully everybody can still hear me.

Anthony thinks so.

All right.

See you on Saturday.

Okay.

So on Saturday, be prepared.

I'm not going to say it's going to be a longer than usual session, but typically the last one is the last one.

So at last, because I will stay here and make sure that any question that you have, whether it's my tire, golf swing.

Who to bet on the Super Bowl, money lines.

We can answer all that.

So thank you, everybody.

I appreciate you giving me a chance.

I'm going to head out.

Anthony, thank you, thank you.

And we will say arrivederci for now.

Get to work, get your reps in, and we'll see you on Saturday.
