impact

. Well, a couple of pieces I want to talk about here. I'll show you from the bottom a couple of things and then we'll go over and show you from the front what this looks like, how to rotate your chest and shoulders during the downswing. Now let's go over a couple of things here. big picture and then we'll get into the details of what I'd like to see and if we look at the best players writing the best forwards, we'll go up to the top of the swing and come down to impact, okay?

If we look at the impact of good ball strikers, their body is open to the target. Well, that's the first thing. How much do they open? Normally we will see the hips open between 20, 30 and 40 degrees, we will call it 40 and 45 degrees on average. The shoulders will also be open, so one of the biggest misconceptions I had as a kid was that I really wanted to open my hips and keep my shoulders closed tight, so I was like, "You know, hey, I want to keep my shoulders." I went back to the target for a while and on my hips and well, in fact, when I started looking at the measurements of the best players, the best players not only open their hips but they also open their shoulders quite a bit in time with you.

I know a lot of them that I see that can have 15, 20, even 30 degrees open with their shoulders. What I mean is that her hips are not much wider than her shoulders, which is what I interpret that to be and what I found works best for feel. The wise thing is that I want you guys to open everything up, from the top of the backswing, everything. I want them to not only open their hips. I want the chest to point forward. I want the shoulders to open. Good, and I want them open because that's what the best players do now.

When you look at good players from down the line, it gets a little complicated because we have pro tracking and shoulder blade retraction, so I can push my shoulder blades forward and I can pull my shoulder blades back now if I take my shoulders here and They are lined up squarely and I just push my shoulder blade in. Now it looks like my shoulders are pointing much more to the right, they don't. I didn't change the line of my shoulder, I just pushed my shoulder blade in and the opposite ones. It's true, if I stay here and pull the shoulder blade back, I didn't open the shoulder line, I just pulled the shoulder back, it seems to move, why is that relevant when you watch during the downswing and it might seem like his shoulders are more squares? the goal is not their shoulder blades they are just pushed forward, okay, then you have the illusion that the shoulders remain very square.

I don't like I don't like any idea of ​​keeping your back towards the target and trying to reach your arms. and with your hands down in front I don't like the idea that you have to keep your shoulders very square like this. I do not like anything of that. I've seen other top teachers and some people say they promote so do it and if that works for you that's fine it doesn't work for me it doesn't work for the people I coach it's not what the best players do I don't like it I like everything open with it How is this deal done? you rotate your chest, how do you rotate your shoulders?

I'm saying all that to start because I want you to understand in your mind that the goal is to open as wide as I want you to open and get your chest to the target as soon as humanly possible. So when I get to the top of my swing, I want the buttons on my shirt to point toward the target as quickly as possible. That's my answer. How fast or how do I turn my shoulders? I want you to open your shoulders as quickly as possible. Can you open them? your chest and your shoulders too much my answer is no but Eric what happens if I go to the top I love it I talk to myself in the third person I go to the top and I open too much I'm going to go to the top no no yes I go to the top and I open like this .

I have to learn to make my arms and hand shallow separately. If you go to the top and open, you say that makes me superior. No, you need to learn to superficialize the club, the best players. Do you see guys or girls on tour who turn their backs on the goal and do this in no way? I've never seen them look very open. I've had guys up and down this range for the last ten years to hit the ball really well. Does it look like they have their entire body completely open? So I want you to get out of this idea of ​​keeping my shoulders closed.

You have to give up this false idea that if I turn my shoulders, I will reach the top. Now turn yours. shoulders and learn how to shallow the damn stick, right. I have many videos about that, that's what the best players do, opening your body as much as possible and bathing the club is how you put your speed, it's how you shower the angle of attack, that's what I understand. the ball in the face how you hit the ball high and far it works that's what's not debatable so I want them open from there so from the line that's my deal I'm not going to give myself much more than that from above I want this to be open immediately, how do I make it so that I can feel the buttons on my shirt open towards the target immediately?

There's really a race or a sequence between my hands and the club and my chest or my shoulders and I want from the top I want my chest and my shoulders to open much faster and then my arms and hands come down with my arms and hands slower I want for my body to be faster I don't want this in my arms and hands to go down too fast I don't have a chance to open my chest and my shoulders I want my arms Deen to go slow I want them to open that's part number one the second part of how rotating through impact is what kind of lean should you have or not is it like that when I come out, are my shoulders level, are they really bent or somewhere in between, you know, it has an original model, some of the things that have been said in

golf

over the years is that your shoulders will turn 90 degrees to your spine so if I swing back my shoulders would turn 90 degrees my spine would level them and then they would turn 90 degrees towards my spine on the way through From that shoulder, how much should your shoulders lean?

There are different ways to do it. okay, so I'll give you the answer: when you go down, there are ways you can do more at work, there are middle ground, and there's more. I'd lean towards having a decent amount of shoulder so far, how are you going to do it? do that when you come down, I'm wide open here, how do I add more camber through the right side? Fold. I'm doing like a little side crunch like this. I'm not doing a lean like this, it's just me leaning back without rotation. I'm going to open up and add the right side curve to lower my right shoulder, so my right shoulder comes down the right side.

Curve not this way, okay, so we'll go head to head. I'm going to talk a little bit more about Here's What I Want You to Understand and get those key points out of the way. Open as much as you can. Open your chest immediately. Open your shoulders. Or learn to shower the stick. If you want to have a little inclination, you will do it on the right side. Bend, let's talk a little more about that face to face, all right guys, so let's talk face to face about how to rotate the chest at the shoulders. I'm going to start this part by hitting a couple demonstrating my feelings and then we'll talk. more now, when I'm working on my chest and shoulder rotation, essentially my fields are that correct, so I feel like during my descent, my chest and shoulders are completely rotated, completely rotated towards the target as I extend in my follow-up. with my arms and hands still feeling like they're behind me these are my fields I'm right here I'm at the top of my chest and my shoulders and arms are opening fully as soon as humanly possible so I'm going to demonstrate one or two with those fields, so that seems to me like my chest and my shows and all that are wide open.

Now something else that helps me and helps other people too is where my neck and my eyes go if I say I want your upper body to open sooner, where my eyes go in space are going to dictate where my neck goes. , that's going to dictate part of where my spine can turn. I like the eyes turning towards the target before, right, old Annika Sorenstam David Duval henrik stenson the The eyes going up towards the target helps with the rotation, so I feel like when I'm rotating through my chest, my eyes They go again from here, you're looking for the same pieces, I'm at the top and how do I do it?

Do this immediately. I'm opening and gouging my eyes out. I'm lowering my chest and sticking my shoulders out before my arms and hands kick and again there will be some on the right side. Fold that right AB that we have. I've talked before, but mainly I'm looking at that chest out, eyes out, shoulders out, all up and open in the follow through before my arms and hands come out, so that's what I'm looking for guys, let's finish this . up with the rain a little chest turn your shoulders to impact open everything early learn to shower the stick separately there will be some tilt but don't be afraid to open if you open and that causes problems learn to superficially separately if they have any comments or question, simply leave us a comment below.
