How To Consistently Square The Club Face | THE SECRET

Now, if you want to

square

the

face

up, you have to be quite precise; in fact, if you open it just a few degrees one way or another, it can be very out of line and that happens when you stay connected and use your upper body and core. the right way and I'm going to talk about exactly what I want to say. Many people tell you: stay connected. What the hell does that mean? Well, what doesn't it mean? If you are not connected, then you will not have the opportunity. Consistency because your hands and arms can move this

club

in many different ways very easily.

You have to get your left armpit and your right elbow, particularly the left shoulder, to work the right way and once I do that, I'll be rock solid through contact, let me. I will explain how to do it so that it is not just theory and ideas. Here let's talk about how to make this happen. I have a little thera-band here. These are a couple of dollars. You get them on Amazon, the brand doesn't matter. Whatever you want to do with it is fine, but I'm going to wrap it sideways around the stick, squeeze it tight, and then from there I'm going to wrap it around the

face

.

This is the best way to achieve it. Your left arm is connected the way it's supposed to be in the golf swing, so I'm going to wrap it really tight so it stays on the head and then I'm just going to put a little bit of tension here and bend it. under my left armpit, now I want a little bit of tension, so if I disconnect all of a sudden it goes flying, I'm not going to let it come loose here, but if you basically take a little bit of tension off it, it's going to fly out of your arm, so this will give you immediate feedback on whether you're connected the right way, now from there I'm going to head in and I'm going to hit it and feel it really nice and tight, now you see the key here.

It's and I'm just going to hold this with my other hand, I'm using my left arm the right way, so if I take my left arm and put it in front of me, I can extend it like this without rotating my body. To reach that way, I keep my chest still and slide my scapula across my shoulder, so I'm basically sliding my shoulder, which is called prolonging my shoulder. This will retract and prolong. I want it fully extended in the golf swing. So basically if I keep my chest or another way of doing it here, it would be great to put your back against the wall with your arm forward and then get your arm off the walls as far as you can, that's a long left arm and that's exactly what you want.

To have from there in the golf swing, I'm going to become that, so my body becomes my left arm and now all of a sudden this has become very tight, especially when I pull it towards the target or pull it towards below. to the golf ball now it got really tight so basically I'm almost twisting the logo on my shirt in my armpit and that really fits there now when you pull this up and put it under your arm you automatically do that, you automatically throw your chest in your armpit or twist your chest in your armpit because if you didn't, if you did the opposite, it would go flying, so this makes you do it without even having to know what you're doing now from there.

I'm going to go ahead and go into my impact position and you'll see how my right heel comes off the ground a little bit, that helps me rotate my left arm, you'll see how I have to stay in my stance if I suddenly lose my stance, it becomes hard to reach and I'm going to tend to let out a little bit of tension and then eventually my weight is going to be on my left side so with my right heel up, turn it in. my left arm weight on my left side perfect impact position now from there we finish with this exercise training the left arm, we are going to make that right arm also solid as a rock now from here I almost want to imagine that you are going to give it some cut of karate so generally you know, cut this way imagine you're going to cut the back of the ball so if I had this ball on the ground I'm going to cut it this way and I'm going to look at my elbow and the inside of my elbow It really kicks in, that's the exact feeling you should have when you go into impact.

A lot of people do the opposite and stand up and throw their right arm out and all of a sudden my palm is like this instead of tucked in. that cutting motion that would be very connected so I'm swinging into my left arm that's tightening here and I'm cutting the entire inside of my forearm it should feel like it's going towards the target there so if I'm going to impact here and I just do a pause in the same thing, right heel up, body turning on my left arm very tight here, right arm is connected and it's almost cutting the inside of the golf ball towards the target, I just have to turn my hand to place it on the stick.

That's the position that keeps your face

square

, that's where you should be at impact. Now you can start from here and this indoor machine doesn't do a great job of reading these really short messages, but I want to feel that position, okay? I'm really connected, the face is dead squares, this is happening, I'm just going to do a nice little easy shot, there we go really connected here. I really feel like my armpits are nice and tucked in, but my hands are nice and soft like me. I'm doing that now. I'm going to start with some of what look like 30 and 40 yard shots.

I probably hit it a lot further and almost got to 80 yards with a 9 iron, but then gradually I'll go a little further. a little bit more and more, but it's right on impact, I'm not so worried about coming back here or my fall obviously my armpits are going to go up, it's right on impact, everything is connected, the hands are soft and that keeps that face nice and square. As I go through there, I'm going to go ahead and accelerate a little bit more and I really feel like I'm in that position, so just instill this, do this 10 15 20 times heel up, body turns to the left. arm, this elbow goes in tight and that's a rock solid position where the face will end up taking care of itself if you do it right, there we go, another nice little draw there and I feel like I might be able to do it once I get it. that general downward pattern that I can swing over and over again I'm going to have that nice pattern every time we go to the same thing.

I really feel like my shoulders and my chest are doing most of the face guidance and then the hands just stay soft and follow the path, let's try it one more time, we go three in a row pretty good with the nine iron, good tie in each one and again, this is the key, almost like you're holding your hands. Instead of having your palms facing down and bending your elbows when you put your hands this way, that's the connection you want to feel and it's going to keep everything solid there so you don't have to do it all with your hands. and wrists to square it, his body is in a good position and he keeps the

club

face fairly square.

Now everything we talked about here today is practically impossible unless we do something right and we can't get up from our posture to We start turning towards the left side of our body. We begin to have everything good and connected with our body. If we stand up, if we get up from our posture, we won't even be able to reach the golf ball. You have to throw and flip the club at the last second just to reach it and all the good work we just did is going to fly out the window. One of the real keys is getting the spacing right and getting your body in a position where you can make those movements and still be able to hit the golf ball, especially with a lot of shaft lean and really hit it with a nice ball and solid first, then the divot and ground contact after the ball each time.

I have a great video that will show you exactly how to do that. I call it Knuckle Dragger and it really goes perfectly with what we did here today. You've got all of this connected and then we just need to get the feel of this last little piece. of what your hand should be doing through this whole contact zone and man, it makes it a lot easier to hit it really hard, so I'll play a preview of that video here in just a second, all you need to do is Go ahead and click on one of the cards that appear on your screen or the link below in the description you will get instant access to the Knuckle Dragger video, come on and let's get started, I have an amazing video for you, this is what I call Knuckle Dragger.

It's one of the best, one of the big missing pieces for players who are struggling to get more lag. Now let's talk about when you lose the delay. Which happens many times. What happens is you make your downswing if you look from here. online view, what happens is my hips go towards the golf ball, they start sliding forward, my chest moves away from this golf ball, so I'm moving further away from the golf ball and then all of a sudden , I throw, I flip and I don't have much lag there, well, look how far my hands are from the ground.

I also notice when I bring my hands closer to the ground, so as my hands go lower, what happens is they also go further forward as I go. If you want to have more lag when you feel your knuckles dragging on the ground, then that club will naturally stay back and then you'll release it in front when your hands are off the ground, well, if only it had. with all that lag, where would I be swinging, I would be swinging one foot over the top of the golf ball, so you have to release that lag early to make contact with the golf ball and feel those knuckles like they are.

Scraping the ground again is really going to be a big key now, another part of this again when I talked about losing that posture, your hips come forward, you want to feel that as those hands scrape the ground, your knuckles drag the ground. you
