    J - I've watched literally tens of thousands of golf videos, and yours are by FAR the BEST! I only came across your videos a few weeks ago, but have already made exceptional progress with your tips and drills. Thank you so much for your devotion to the golfing commmunity!

    Great video lesson. I had that exaggerated bump that eventually caused left side pain so bad that I couldn’t swing at all.I watched your lessons and noticed the straightening left leg through impact.I have no pain when I do the same. It would be a great topic to discuss what NOT to do in order to avoid injuries. Thanks!

    Tried the drill today. Could not hit my hybrid with the half swing. I topped it again and again. But the first full swing!!!! I swear!!! I have never hit my hybrid like that. I could not feel hitting the ball. It was like cutting trough butter. What a drill! 😊

    I employed this drill in my practice session today using wedges and 9 iron for about an hour. Did not count the number of swings made, but it was many dozens.
    This drill provides new feels for a higher handicap seeking to improve contact. It focused me on where I'm supposed to be at impact.
    Over the course of practice I noted that while thin and fat did not disappear, those imperfections were greatly reduced.
    I could sense reprograming beginning to occur when I made full swings from standard P 1 as it supplies a target reference point to get to, that over an hour began to reprogram things.
    No question this drill took me to a new place. Very cool and will be my focus in practice going forward as based on today, new discoveries await.
    Thanks J.

      Ok commentators and others reviewing comments here,; today I went back to the well....and found it filled with new sensations and the beginings of comprehension.
      It's hot and humid for my NE neck of the woods, so I only struck about 40 shots which started with about 5 sand irons, all preset impact position swings. Moved to 50 degree and until around ball 30 all were preset impact position swings . I found more left shoulder expansion and overall extension along my left side, more opening up.
      There were maybe 8 clunkers, most were thin, 1 was fat., but many of the presets were strongly struck, and reinforcement was definitely occurring. Only 1 full shot, at about ball 30, and smoke compressed it. Went back to the drill for the rest of the balls.
      Lots of teachers sell speed of learning following their emphasized points, but if you have done it wrong hundreds of thousands of times you are not going to transform overnight. There are new muscles and anatomical structures in play. It is a reprograming.
      So that understood, this is a process, and I respect J's emphasis that this may take months and thousands of reps. I felt new sensation and progress on that path today and know I will have to stick this out to ingrain a permanent replacement. The bottom line to me is fixing a problem I could not solve via other efforts, so if this drill makes me a more consistent ball striker 6 months from now, then it's a superb teacher.
      J thanks again, and I trust others will realize that if you want to get much better one has to do the right things, and stick with it. This preset impact drill is a definite improver, in spades.

    I use this setup as my 1-80 yard approach shots, I find it extremely accurate. It simplifies the movements, as he mentions, great low point control and I have more focus on tempo and direction. Which improves scoring… I am much more confident in my short game and up/down %. I have never thought about using this concept to improve my full swing compression, but I do know with my longer irons and especially driver, I don’t have 90% of my weight on that front foot at impact. Can’t wait to try it!

    I've tried many drills from the "experts" on YT and this is the best drill by far i've tried that instantly increased my accuracy and distance. My ball flight was higher than i've ever hit as well, which will help me hold more greens with longer irons. I don't like or comment on many YT videos but this one deserves it. Well done sir!

  • @johnorourke748

    Whenever I try this drill it feels like my swing gets very short and quick. I notice your tempo in the demo is also very quick, though probably normal for you. Is the impact position for driver the same and will this drill help with that club?

    Question about ulnar deviation - impact position has ulnar in the trail hand, when you turn back for the drill do you leave the ulnar in?

  • @doohee16
    @doohee16 Год назад +1

    Sorry if this is a little off topic, but what do you personally feel to make sure you’re making a “full” and “deep enough” backswing? Sometimes i think this is the $1M question. Does it relate to your left shoulder getting over your right foot, getting your hips turned at least 45-60 degrees? How do you make sure you’re making a sufficiently long and deep enough backswing without it feeling manufactured and losing the built up torque at the top?

    • @1DCCX
      @1DCCX Год назад

      If your hands are deep, then the lead arm has the support of the body behind it. When the chest unturns the inertia of the arm will load against it. You will feel more stress if anything from a deeper position. The chest will apply more torque on the arm not less.
      But you have to do some ‘work’ with the lead arm in the downswing and the straightening right arm assists this and gets it off the chest.
      Otherwise you end up pivoting with the lead arm relatively pinned back and arms trapped and low point back and swing direction pointing more out. The latency in the human reaction time, the ‘transition’ loading and the mass and weight of the left arm means you have to stimulate that action of right arm straightening from the ‘top’ of the swing. Conceptually. To assist with bringing the low point ahead of the ball.
      Just do the drills as he is advocating, verify what it looks like, and it feels what it feels like. Feel changes. Can’t build a golf game based on someone else’s feels. ‘Turn left shoulder over right foot’ is not a ‘feel’, that’s a command to a body part. That’s proven to be the worst way to develop a motor skill.
      Over time you may find several ‘feels’ that emerge consistently and represent your version of good mechanics. Then you reproduce the feel and it reproduces the motor program.
      If you want to be coachable - do what he is telling you. Just do it. Don’t question it. Verify you are doing it. It feels what it feels like.

    • @phill8504
      @phill8504 Год назад

      To me, the back swing is kind of a personal ability/flexibility thing. I believe Jchowngolf has a video where he is hitting an 8 iron 166, with a quarter to half swing. I have friends (we are old) that have very short back swings, maybe half swings, and hit the ball plenty long and straight. With this drill don’t get too ridged, especially the left arm and shoulder and wrists, good luck
