Hi Rotary Golf instructors I have a question for you regarding the goats and throwing the club so far it’s focussed on the right hand throwing the club but I watched a video of Sam Snead who is a goat himself and he I think threw the club with his left hand and he claimed it automatically helped him shift his weight left. I don’t like using my right side and I’ve found some success with the throwing with the left hand ???? you gotta get it as low as possible for everything to spring back up. He also gripped with the last two fingers so going on a few of his other videos he would pause shift and pull with his left hand and according to this video the last two fingers not three so interesting. For me personally I start with the left and put the right shoulder down I don’t throw it unloads so it’s different to the right hand throw however I guess feels are different for everyone. Have a look on the link https://www.facebook.com/share/v/GpKP1QPG1on7dcPM/?mibextid=KsPBc6&startTimeMs=9000 What are your thoughts on throwing the club with the left hand?

Hello Ronald. You can hear Sam say you start to pull down with the left hand in the downswing which helps shift the weight the left side. I didn't catch where he said to throw the left hand. If you take a look at 2 Finger Release Drill and Frisbee Drill. The motion is just like RST of old with a lead side based pull and release pattern. This is how I actually swing the club to this day. :thumbsup:
