By: A7Guitar. on 11 Feb 12, 02:53:06 great video but i do have a problem with lining it up with the logo since most balls arent balanced and no company that I know of takes the time to find the balls center of gravity or rather "the light side" so that part doesnt really help unless the balls are balanced. But if you do know of a company? that takes the time to check that their balls are balanced please let me know. By the way that one thing is the only thing I havent found useful. Every other tip on every video has helped :)

I have a 7 and an 8 iron, and a putter, all for $2 a piece from the thrift store. I practice at a park because I'm too broke to hit the courses, but I'm swinging nice and straight with my irons. Before this video I had no idea how to? use my putter but now I'm glad I bought it. I can't wait to find a suitable spot to call my poor man's practice green

Enjoy the video a ... By: RDJ1109. on 22 Jun 11, 18:42:14 Enjoy the video a lot. I typically drain all of my putts within 6ft. However, in the last week I seem to have hit a slump. I missed about 4 par putts from inside 4 ft the other day and this has happened to me in several rounds in the last 10 days or so. Do golfers go through a putting slump the same way baseball players go through hitting slumps? I? don't want to change my putting stoke but I'm wondering if it's time to make changes or if I should just be patient and ride this out?

This distance is? ... By: clemshaw. on 07 Jun 11, 20:04:10 This distance is? very important; the key here is to feel that once you are set up, that the putt is no longer under your control; you have already lined up, set-up and now it is all about letting momentum put the ball into the hole for you; no not steer it!!

I like the concept ... By: tfraiss. on 26 May 12, 09:00:54 I like the concept of focussing on "gravity" and "momentum", I stumbled over a Pete Cowen series of videos, and he is emphasising the same things. I don't think I really manage to think dynamically, so I help myself thinking that the club has actually no choice but to return to its address position when swung correctly. if it does it will necessarily hit the ball the way I addressed it.? so ultimately, I think I am still trying to hit the ball.

It is no problem to ... By: clemshaw. on 26 May 12, 03:05:13 It is no problem to grip down on the club aldo; many pros on the PGA tour do that; For the driver, remember, you are getting ready to release the swing to a target and all you need to feel is if you do that, the tip of the tee is in the way of the? center of the bottom of the club head. Then STAY WITH YOUR TARGET DURING THE WHOLE SWING!

Great video! ... By: sammoth1995. on 26 May 12, 01:13:20 Great video! Recently i have been working on just making a natural swing and let the club do the work which you explained in this video. It makes more sense to me now. I often get caught up in where the club should be in the backswing and when i was doing this it felt so robotic and i felt like i was? forcing the club on the ball. when i was doing this i shot a horrible 95. 2 weeks later i decided i needed to swing naturally and let the club and gravity do the work... i shot 78.

Dude; when you? ... By: clemshaw. on 14 May 12, 03:22:52 Dude; when you? play, you are focused on a target and swing to a target, when you go to the range, you start thinking of the swing and the focus then wanes from the target and starts defaulting to the ball; when you release to the ball instead of releasing out to a target, EVERYTHING CHANGES!!! See "ridiculously easy golf shawn clement" "pure strike part 1 and 2 shawn..." and keep a nice steady center with "visual reference to tilt shawn" Shawn
Why is it when i go ... By: pouyanmoabed. on 08 May 12, 20:50:23 Why is it when i go to the range I can hit about 20 straight down the pipe with a slight fade, then i start shanking everything and completely lost my swing. It takes me a week of no playing to feel normal again. then if i skip the range and just play i never? shank. I'm lost?
Not one bit Mike; ... By: clemshaw. on 04 May 12, 18:30:20 Not one bit Mike; as soon as you are ready to work the ball, you are ready for this; I get my beginners? working the draw and fade in the 3 rd or 4th lesson as this is part of the whole deal of playing golf. As soon as they try to hit the ball straight, they can't release the club and this major manipulation is one of the main reasons golfers can't evolve the way they want to; Jack said it over 30 years ago; "stop trying to hit the ball straight! "
Yes to first ... By: clemshaw. on 04 May 12, 18:17:29 Yes to first question and you can also do the second option; both are great but the second will give you a more relaxed feel in the arms; both are effective though because? it is a glancing blow...if you want to apply squeeze and compression and spin to the ball, use that stronger grip! Shawn

I used to be a ... By: thefonz147. on 28 Apr 12, 02:28:40 I used to be a duffer for years, constantly struggling to make solid ball first contact. Shawn's videos helped me change my focus from trying to hit the? ball first, to being more conscious of my center of gravity, and keeping that point in front of the ball. I'm a duffer no more. And I don't. Feel like quitting a game I love anymore. Thanks Shawn!
Why is the weight ... By: Kepahl. on 27 Apr 12, 22:46:47 Why is the weight on your front foot? I do the opposite of your style. Weight on front for low runners, weight on back for soft lobs. Open face for lobs closed face? for runners.
Shawn, one thing I ... By: cmterpsnskins. on 27 Apr 12, 18:17:57 Shawn, one thing I am always confused about -- do you open the face, then grip the club?

couple of quick ... By: silowhore. on 27 Apr 12, 17:37:04 couple of quick questions shawn, i? hear a lot of different info regarding opening up the body and club face when chipping and pitching etc, when you open the club face, do you turn away from the target and point the opened face squarely at the target like say phil mickelson? and also, when you open your body and club face up are you aligning your shoulders? with your body, or with the target? Thanks

I have watched alot ( not all ) of Shawn's videos and they have helped me tremendously so far and i've been playing since age 9. There's no 1 way to swing or play golf so if what works for him helps others...PERFECT !!!
An interesting ... By: sweetasanutnz. on 26 Apr 12, 09:41:23 An interesting analogy but for golf (where you are not walking? down a street) it is a little flawed. For sure, golf is traditionally taught using some very robust and strict principals that don't make it the easiest sport to pick up. I am open to the new stuff, so will take your word that it works in its own special way, but personally I won't start bobbing.

Thanks -
Shawn your thought: ... By: tededwardsdc. on 28 Apr 12, 16:48:13 Shawn your thought: your head anchors the fall of the arms past the door frame along with your where to park the head video led to a revelation. I'm a left hander playing golf right handed.? And all this time I've had my head parked great if I WAS playing from the left side.

yeah, if you do the ... By: akashwadhwani. on 26 Apr 12, 03:58:59 yeah, if you do the sledge hammer drill right, everything literally happens automatically and you'll be wondering how the ball can go so far with no effort. This clicked for me yesterday, and I shot a 76. I? usually shoot in the high 80s, low 90s. But yeah, that sledgehammer drill is scary good. If your thinking about what this body part is doing and what that's doing, you need to stop yourself and say, "wow I am trying way too hard." It's weird, you must lose control in order to gain it.
The thing is that ... By: clemshaw. on 26 Apr 12, 03:58:52 The thing is that you don't start from a static position! Your arm club unit is already in the process of swinging freely and the body is already in the process of getting out of the way and the way it does that is by listening to? the weight of the arms and club; see "sledge hammer golf; shawn clement", "throwing the club; shawn...", Perpetual motion drill; shawn...", "grass whip; shawn..." and many more!

The thing is, the ... By: ubizmo. on 25 Apr 12, 18:17:09 The thing is, the lag position shortens the swing radius a bit, so if you set up without lag and then hit the ball with lag, without any compensation, you'd have to hit it thin. So? how do you compensate?

Yes, but you are ... By: clemshaw. on 25 Apr 12, 11:44:54 Yes, but you are allowing for the pronation and it is virtually impossible to prevent that? from occurring when you set the wrist properly in the backswing; see "loaded arms; shawn clement" video and "releasing arms and club; shawn clement" as well as "fencing for power; shawn"; the chicken wind comes from improper focus defaulting to the ball and causing the body to stop and the arms just crash into the body! See "ridiculously easy golf; shawn clement" and "arms and body timing"
http://www.shawnclem entgolf.com Shawn Clement, 2011 Ontario PGA Teacher of the Year Nominee and Director of the Richmond Hill Golf Learning Centre, CLASS A CANADIAN PGA MEMBER, shows you how to use your sun glasses or ball cap to monitor your tilted position during the swing for best release results!

Great tip amigo. ... By: tomganley53. on 24 Apr 12, 05:13:00 Great tip amigo. It also helps with two of my worse backswing? flaws: Swaying back off the ball and the annoying habit of watching the clubhead go back (Those two things might be connected). There is also an analogy here for those knowlegeable in the operation of firearms. It's the concept of sight picture. The hat is the back site and the ball is the front site.You have to understand how to use those or you'll never consistently hit the target. Do you think that's true in the golf swing too?

I can feel it happening but I can't seem to stop it, but I'll try this tip. Really allowing your hips to turn is a scary feeling because I never feel like I'll get back again!

This just means ... By: clemshaw. on 30 Mar 12, 15:26:56 This just means that you are releasing the juice at the ball instead of through the ball; you need to polish the feel of what releasing deep past the ball to a target is and really get into it; see my "Throwing the club", "Farm Hammer",? "Ridiculously easy golf", "Fencing for Power" (And really try this drill and feel where the hands turn over and lock into that feel and look for that feel when you are over the ball) Go to my forum too as we talk about this all the time!!
HELP!! Hi Shawn, I ... By: mikeyballz5. on 29 Mar 12, 20:07:47 HELP!! Hi Shawn, I have been watching your videos for some time now and want to thank you for all of the help, as my game? has improved. However, I have a new error this season that I do not know how to fix. On the down swing my wrists turn too quickly causing the club face to be slightly closed when I make contact, which in turn causes the ball to hook to the left. Any tips you can give me to fix this will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!
Right on Shawn!
... By: bighank99. on 23 Mar 12, 17:01:40 Right on Shawn!
It's also nicely described in one of the older videos, the 'Shawn Clement: How Much Hit to Apply' video.
So we can let the arms fall, just as we let the kid on the swing rise up, then hover, and then start down. And that's the moment when? we can give it some UMPH with the extra push.
The 'arms falling' and 'wait for the weight' has done so much to help me stop manipulating the hands in the swing!
You bet it is! You ... By: clemshaw. on 23 Mar 12, 14:27:46 You bet it is! You still have to use the weight of the sword to slash through and this requires you waiting for? that weight and you will definitely feel the fall in front of the body and down the plane; just try it in the context of the "cutting through the water melon"! :)
Shawn
I know; this is ... By: clemshaw. on 23 Mar 12, 14:25:49 I know; this is always very difficult for me to listen to; because your body is already wired to perform the task without ANY CONSCIOUS THINKING! Please see "ridiculously easy golf; shawn? clement", then see "feet together drill; shawn clement", "one leg drill; shawn clement" and "feet together and one leg update; Shawn clement" videos; so you can feel amazing power without ANY NEED TO THRUST THE HIPS; they are already programmed to clear; you just need the right command from the brain! :)

I've always been taught to "keep the spine angle" and to avoid an up and down motion with the head. If you look at (say) a video of Bobby Jones' swing, his head is amazingly stable.? You obviously have superior coordination. I wonder if that is why the up-down head can work for you.
Great videos. I'm learning a lot.

Not even close!! ... By: clemshaw. on 25 Jan 12, 12:17:29 Not even close!! Contrary to what you see them do, I have a very specific anatomical way of gripping, allowing the arms to swing instead of keeping them to the body, bracing against my tilt instead of throwing my tilt all over the place and our way of "Stacking" means your centre of gravity is ALWAYS supported by the lower body and there is? never a need for video analysis to manipulate yourself into positions; my swing has evolved yes, it keeps getting better with our principles.

If I was to let my club go there is no way it would fly toward the target (newbe here). So today I told myself, I don't want to hit that ball, I want to "throw" my club toward the target and the ball is just an incidental obstacle on its way. I clearly noticed that my mind made immediate changes and I was hitting more effortlessly and to the target. It was? probably the first time when I truly enjoyed it. Thanks!
Hi Shaun - Many ... By: tomcagney. on 06 May 12, 11:44:16 Hi Shaun - Many thanks for this video. I have been following you for? many years and have your videos. The "heavy axe" provided me with a great "Ah Ha!!" moment. It has really helped me with the "pause at the top" and "being on plain". I have raised a few eyebrows at the club because the driver and shots have suddenly gone a lot farther. Many thanks again.

I have a problem I take the club to much inside in the takeaway, I have done this basically since I started playing golf and it's a swingflaw? that I want to get rid of, Do you have any suggestions any drills that might help me with that problem? I would really appreciate a answer, thanks Shawn. I'm a 4 handicapper, but I feel like this problem hinders me from improving my game, I have worked on this but I still take the club underplane.
@aldojoel1981 there ... By: clemshaw. on 22 Jan 12, 21:33:02 @aldojoel1981 there are many options for clubs with a bit more weight to them. Iron shafts like the dynamic gold are heavy, and for woods look for something in the 70-80 gram range. For some more drastic weight? increases, you can try lead tape or the tour lock weights that Shawn has in all his clubs. Matt Blois

I'd be lucky to hit 7 per round. Today on my approach shots, my only thought was my target being "out there", the center of the green. Target awareness...Well, I hit 13/18 greens, 9/14 fairways, and shot a 75!!!! Thank you!

Let me tell you; you without even seeing my swing have literally shaved 25 to 30 strokes of a 18 hole rd for me and added 25? yards per club. Your better than EVERY OTHER GOLF "instructor" online. Period!(and ive been through them all...trust me) So simple yet genius. Im still learning to trust "abandoning" the club in the back swing but when i do and swing "at the target' the results are uncanny. You deserve TV.....
Shawn which golf ... By: aldojoel1981. on 15 Jan 12, 04:08:44 Shawn which golf clubs you recommeds? that is heavy enough to feel the weight of the club like arms club unit???

On my practice club which I swing in the bedroom - especially now that it's snowing here in Seattle I use the Taylormade Speed Sleeve - a very cool accessory. As I said above I don't want the illusion of a heavier swingweight I actually want the increased momentum a heavier object by the laws of physics must produce. It helps keep me on line and by employing Shawn's swing strategy I'm hitting more fairways and greens than ever.?
A lot of players ... By: golfdoconline. on 14 Jan 12, 21:17:25 A lot of players use heavier? clubs Norman, Hogan, Trevino etc. If you want a few extra yards it's best that they land in the fairway. The best way I've found to do that is to follow Shawn Clements teachings. Get a target and swing through toward that target. My distance has improved as has my accuracy. I'm having a lot of fun playing golf letter my central nervous system do the work as Shawn teaches so well.

Then I referred back to your videos and remembered the tilted spiral tips which made my swing feel like it was making sense again. I think I was focusing on things I shouldn't have, and was so eager to get the ball going far and in the air that I neglected to focus on proper technique.

By: clemshaw. on 22 May 12, 01:31:20 I understand what you mean but in this case; it is like riding a bike; you just don't lose the swing at all when you are focused on the proper things; see my "Sledge hammer golf shawn clement" video; you don't lose your hammer or axe swing from one day to the next do you? :) Shawn ?

Every golfer has his or her bad days. I was wondering, do you ever have days where your swing is on fire, then the next day you just can't seem to hit any good shots? ? If so, what do you do to assess the situation? Especially since you are a golf instructor, I'm curious to know.

Hi
I think ... By: haricsl. on 12 Mar 12, 21:40:21 Hi
I think everyone wants to emulate Ben Hogan's? swing which is evidenced by quite a few of your videos. This video suggests an up, down, up motion. However, if you look at Ben Hogan's (even Tiger's) swing it is clearly down, down and up. I believe the initial "down" motion comes from an additional flexion at the waist (ie tush pushes out). Useful to hear your thoughts on this
Shawn, been ... By: charlatan19. on 10 Mar 12, 01:38:13 Shawn, been watching for years, but realized I missed something from previous Hogan videos. Confused on the point that if I'm up against the mirror at address. how can I turn into the downswing staying against the mirror without the spine moving away from it: on the forward swing as well for that matter.? Any help or other videos you can direct me to is appreciated.
that may be so ... By: silowhore. on 02 Feb 12, 14:30:28 that may be so shawn, but my point was that most of the top ball strikers including rory, tiger, hogan do not go up in their backswing, they compress into the ground, there is a lowering, then a second lowering as they swing down, they do not go up down up, they go down down? up as it were. i done some searching and there is a well know teacher in the USA that has a channel here on youtube dedicated to this very topic, his name is Wayne De Francesco.....check it out :D

For the centrifucal pump, I found my own way to explain it and feel it could maybe help others.
In the downswing, imagine yourself with both feet on a big weight scale. Let's you weight 200, it shows 200. Now, think about pumping those numbers at 400 for a splits second, with both feet.
You're body will know when to do it? if you keep your focus to the target at the same time.

By: clemshaw. on 09 Jan 12, 19:45:52 Yes,? this pertains to the action to target; what makes the hands lead is the focus of the delivery of the energy or action in the direction you want to start the ball; see "Hammer Through; shawn clement", "throwing the club; shawn clement", Fishing and golf; shawn clement" and "how arms and club release; shawn clement"; Shawn

There is a lot of talk about right side? golf these days and it would appear you're teaching a body motion with passive hands. Hogan always said he wished he had 3 right hands. Relating it back to your hammer analogies, if I were swinging a large hammer with two hands and I'm right handed, wouldn't I tend to use that right hand to push the hammer into impact? Wouldn't this be a natural move? Thanks

Maybe I can answer ... By: Tourswing. on 14 Dec 11, 15:03:37 Maybe I can answer this for Shawn. At address the rake head is 90 degrees to the back of the left hand. At the top of the swing, it's the same relationship. Imagine you had a long nail through the palm of the left hand, same relationship at the top. In a similar way the leading edge of the club is in line with the back of the? left hand (more or less dependent on how strong the grip is). It's a bit of a brain burner, but just think about it and it'll make sense!
Shawn... excellent ... By: marklarm. on 14 Dec 11, 06:15:07 Shawn... excellent creative instruction, as usual.
I couldn't help but notice when you were swinging that rake, on the profile view, that the fingers of the rake were pointing directly downward. Yet they started pointing upward before your swung.
Is that right? Is there not something visually/technically wrong with that image? If that were your driver? head, where would the face be pointing at the top of your swing?
Very curious to know if this is normal or just 'your' personal swing.

I manipulate that action on my backswing and the top of the swing in order for my legs to drive first, then the rest follows. It almost looks like I'm doing a Merengue Dance. I definitely see a more penetrating and consistent ball flight (mostly a baby draw) with the addition of the arms and club are moving freely due to the gravity video you taught. Now I also know the distance each club produces. Thanks and hope to see you in Golf Channel.

Could I upload my swing for you to take a look at?. I'm trying to apply most of your fundamentals, but I can't seem to consistently release to the target without the head/neck rotation, similar to that of Duval, Sorenstam? and Bob May.

What you will ...

The head rotation does not occur during the backswing nor the downswing. Annika ingrained this move into her swing at a very early age. It was reccomended to her, by her teacher, as an aid to complete her body rotation to a full finish? position.

I do have a question about the tempos you have? chosen. Do you think that we have individual tempos for each of our clubs? In other words, your 9-iron was at 52 bpm, where as I found 58 bpm to be better suited for 9-iron...or am I missing the point of the exercise?
Cheers!

I'm close to Richmond Hill, just waiting for the season to start now. This was a nice video to curb my cravings a bit. Who know, I might even drop by some day for a lesson or two.

Oh my gosh Shawn ... By: SandmanLogan61. on 14 Feb 12, 01:12:01 Oh my gosh Shawn this was the best video I think you've done. OK, well, maybe not the best because of your amazing catalog but I absolutely loved going out on the course with you. Would be great to see you do a playing lesson with somebody around a 10 or 15 handicap and watch how you work with their game.
Recently I've been doing a bit of swing research on Manuel de la Torre and wondered what you thought of him and E Jones.

I would like to know what would recommend a good shot flight should be or look like. Is there a difference flight with cavity back irons vs Blades. I have switched to bladfes after watching many of your videos and instructions, I love my MB 710 and the flight, well it's a lower trejectory. Please comment. Thanks John

I'm not saying I ...

Well, I've heard Jim McClean say there are many different successful golf swings and no one correct way and your swing seems to work well so I'm not arguing against that. Hey whats going on up there, the leafs are winning? Can't beat the Caps though!
Is the target the ... By: clemshaw. on 04 Nov 11, 15:29:53 Is the target the ball? I have read, I have thought and now I am delivering...:) Yes, the ball does slow down the swing through impact but you? should never try to put the maximum speed at the ball; IT IS NOT THE TARGET! You collect the ball and release it towards something; just like tennis, baseball, hockey...see my "fishing and golf" video for a better idea...There is way more to this than you think!
Hi Shawn, i have ... By: diabelez. on 04 Nov 11, 10:06:26 Hi Shawn, i have enjoyed many of your videos during this summer when i improved my golf a lot, in my first season ever, i am 42.
But i have to correct your obvious mistake here: clubhead speed should be at max, right where it hits the ball. Its physics. It shouldnt be out there, towards the target. Its completely wrong, think man! read some physics. swing the club in 1 hand from above as a pendulum. do the swirping action with the? shaft, reverse the club and listen to the sound.
This one tip right ... By: aznlyfe123. on 03 Nov 11, 05:45:31 This one tip right here actually might help me tremendously! When you asked the question "where should the maximum speed of the swing be?" I thought where the ball is. You proved me wrong and now I? cant wait to try this new 'focus' tomorrow at the range. You've got the greatest tips!
Yes, actually I am ... By: clemshaw. on 31 Oct 11, 11:15:48 Yes, actually I am in the middle of producing a complete training DVD with specific music that has the rhythms? you would be looking for as you train; a nice double whammy of performance training to get the swing grooved and keep it grooved with lots of positive side effects in the mix; get with me ASAP for the winter program as it has already started and we are over 90% full with just a few spots left! Shawn
Hey GT! Very wise ... By: clemshaw. on 31 Oct 11, 11:09:42 Hey GT! Very wise words in deed! Rhythm is at the root of all smoothness and? effortless power; keep the nice rhythm and transition and deliver a powerful release to your target; you want the best of both worlds!

Hey Paul; you are ... By: clemshaw. on 30 Oct 11, 20:17:52 Hey Paul; you are in a very enviable position of not having anyone to care for except yourself and my advice is to get a junior membership somewhere where they have range privileges included and play your behind off every day; 18 holes a day minimum and 2 hours practice on the aspects of the game you need to work on to perform better; winter you work on your swing and summer you work on putting the ball in the hole.

The brace against ... By: clemshaw. on 27 Oct 11, 21:58:37 The brace against the front leg is one thing yes, but if you are still defaulting to the ball it makes no difference yet; when you are trying to avoid hitting behind the ball, what is your focus? Yes, you guessed it; BEHIND THE BALL! So presto, the body and mind oblige and execute according to the focus! You must REPLACE IT with "what? does it feel like when I release towards the target? So polish the feel of through with my Hammer videos, fishing videos and get on my forum!
Yes; but you should ... By: clemshaw. on 27 Oct 11, 21:54:24 Yes; but you should definitely check out a few threads on this on my forum; we discuss this at length and in full detail!

No, not at all; ... By: clemshaw. on 27 Oct 11, 20:35:22 No, not at all; this definitely means that the grip is not strong enough and the club face is dynamicaly? open and needs to be manipulated to square up; so many tour pros use a very strong grip and the latest guy to have huge success is Web Simpson; Shawn

@magicaljaso with? ... By: clemshaw. on 22 Jan 12, 21:56:09 @magicaljaso with? the driver try to imagining a second ball in front of the first except slightly higher. This emphasizes hitting the ball slightly on the upswing which with the driver will give you the most distance. Strictly for the sake of imagining though, not a drill that would end well. Another feel to imagine is a top spin forehand in tennis, where he racket is traveling slightly from low to high into the ball. Hope that helps, Matt Blois
Shawn, just? a ... By: mjs0039. on 22 Jan 12, 00:57:02 Shawn, just? a question..The eyes need to be on the first ball right?
Hi Shawn. Great ... By: magicaljaso. on 05 Jan 12, 15:34:33 Hi Shawn. Great video again. I have been using this drill for a number of months with great results. I find that imagining the "2 points"? as being within a full circle - great accuracy as well as contact! However, what about the driver? Do you use 2 points here? If so, where are they? Would the ball be the first with the second being level with the ball after or is the ball the second spot with the first spot being the low point of the swing before the ball? Thanks
One thing you must ... By: clemshaw. on 25 Oct 11, 11:10:15 One thing you must constantly monitor is the level of strain exerted in the swing; on a scale of 1 to 10 you want a 1 for strain and a 7or 8 for velocity; injuries come when the transition is too fast from back to front or when you stay down too long through impact with your head? and your trailing arm is stopped dead in it's tracks; see "Where to park your head" and "Baseball mental game for golf"; Shawn

i've learned much from your video's and you've helped my ballstriking greatly, getting great compression through the ball? and my shot shape is becoming more constant as each month goes by, one thing though, i've sustained a rotator cuff injury recently, is there something i'm doing wrong which would cause this? regards

By: clemshaw. on 24 Oct 11, 13:51:28 This one here is very good and also go to my "Bread and Butter shot; shawn clement" and practice hitting and perfecting the intentional fade; there are a couple reasons for your push and that could be taking the club too much to the inside in the backswing or? being too aggressive with the legs in the downswing causing the club to fall behind you too harshly in the downswing; other vids: "Arms falling down plane" and I hit a nice fade as an example in "How to focus" part 2

It is really a ... By: clemshaw. on 14 May 12, 03:06:16 It is really a matter of interpretation; match this up with the "knife the grip" video and the "weak grip or strong grip" video and then put it in action with the "strike it pure" part 1 and 2 video; you allow the hammer to release itself to? the target and see how the ball flies; if it curves to the left and starts left and you have confirmed that you have felt that release way past the ball to the target, then your grip is too strong or the face is too closed...Shawn

Went up to the ranch yesterday, and just wow. Feels unbelievable. Position like you should hammer a nail in to wood, and there is is!! Perfect harmony in the swing. This video is so important to understand the setup in the stance and how important the thought about the hammer is.. Hallelujah!! Now I really love golf. Thanks! Kent Sweden

Not allowing YOUR momentum to get ahead of the clubhead on a natural descent? allows the club to do the work and the way you get the solid massive HIT on the ball TOWARD the target.
But truly feeling the weight and allowing the club to swing naturally like the pushing kid on a swing, you will catch that momentum of the club on DS. It is amazing when you do this.
Thanks Shawn!

I'm trying to put into practice what you are saying here or showing, and I see that on all your videos, you have the right elbow tucked well in to the right hip to prepare for the hit behind the ball and? follow through.

Hi Shawn.
I am a ... By: shooter322005. on 23 Nov 11, 17:42:47 Hi Shawn.
I am a first time emailer to you; have viewed several of your great instructional? videos; and a 45-year long student of golf. This particular video mentioning the pivot to get the rib cage out of the way has really helped. Would you please clarify "pulling down" versus passive hands?
Another great video ... By: dinorell. on 18 Nov 11, 09:45:32 Another great video. I particularly like the clear overhead door in the background. It provides the perfect grid where we can see that you do not slide on the backswing and sit down ( like Moe) on the downswing. ALL you videos should have this as a background. Thanks,? Mike in Memphis.
To answer these ... By: clemshaw. on 11 Nov 11, 12:06:29 To answer these questions, you should go? to my forum and there are a couple videos I want you to watch: "Ridiculously easy golf; shawn clement", "Overswing and fast backswing; shawn..", "Make a circle; shawn...", "Power Rhythm Timing in Abu Dhabi; shawn...", "Horse shoes and lassos; Shawn..."; "Rhythm in Swing; Shawn..."
You need to boil down your thinking process some more and these will help; the timing of the pulling action is like pushing a kid on a swing; Shawn
Hi shawn, regarding ... By: n00bslayer74. on 09 Nov 11, 23:48:06 Hi shawn, regarding the pull, do you pull down after you shift your weight from behind to your front foot? Does it matter where the weight is on the front foot( inside, heel,)? Also, when you shift your weight? to your front foot do the hands fall down the plane (at the same time you shift your weight right?) and THEN do you pull? Lastly, on the backwing, should your right hand fold and hinge at about chest height? Thanks you're amazing by the way. Keep it up.
Hey Man! The key ... By: clemshaw. on 06 Oct 11, 01:40:38 Hey Man! The key here is to feel? that you are using the weight of the arm-club unit to compress the ball through the doorframe towards the target; see "hammer through; shawn clement" "Compress through the ball; shawn clement" "solid contact; shawn clement" and "through the ball; shawn clement" where you will see the 2 ball drill in the second half of the last video; if you can do that, you will crush the ball!

great video but i do have a problem with lining it up with the logo since most balls arent balanced and no company that I know of takes the time to find the balls center of gravity or rather "the light side" so that part doesnt really help unless the balls are balanced. But if you do know of a company? that takes the time to check that their balls are balanced please let me know. By the way that one thing is the only thing I havent found useful. Every other tip on every video has helped :)

I practice at a park because I'm too broke to hit the courses, but I'm swinging nice and straight with my irons. Before this video I had no idea how to? use my putter but now I'm glad I bought it. I can't wait to find a suitable spot to call my poor man's practice green

Thank you Shawn for this video. My putting has 'gone off? the boil' at the moment, so I will work through your video the next time I'm out on the course. I can undersand where I'm going wrong and will try to put it right. Thanks again.

Shawn, another legendary lesson. You're always so clear and concise and use great thought provoking words and analogies.? I have a grass whip on order. Thanks again

Enjoy the video a lot. I typically drain all of my putts within 6ft. However, in the last week I seem to have hit a slump. I missed about 4 par putts from inside 4 ft the other day and this has happened to me in several rounds in the last 10 days or so. Do golfers go through a putting slump the same way baseball players go through hitting slumps? I? don't want to change my putting stoke but I'm wondering if it's time to make changes or if I should just be patient and ride this out?

How many putts did this guy actually end up making??

Watched this video after losing confidence with my putting.? So many tips in one video. Focusing on the correct muscles, hanging from the shoulders and the longer follow through really helped. Putting at the weekend was a joy. Many thanks @clemshaw

This distance is? very important; the key here is to feel that once you are set up, that the putt is no longer under your control; you have already lined up, set-up and now it is all about letting momentum put the ball into the hole for you; no not steer it!! Shawn
