Goldilocks drill is great..I remember Dave Pelz teaching it for short pitch shots. Take a wedge and swing in a way that will go further than landing spot, then a swing that will land short, and then somewhere in the middle is where you’re shot will be close to where you want to land it.
I had a breakthrough yesterday related to ground force. During takeaway the weight loads into the lead leg as the club moves away...once the weight is loaded into the lead leg we can load the club/wrists as the weight is being shifted like the step drill.... Essentially it's loading the pressure you feel in the lead leg During the step drill.... I have been and I believe Most who hear get the weight to the trail side are doing it way too soon... When we shift too soon to the trail side we get stuck and off balance.....We are too static at address to just go to trail leg without loading the lead leg first... The weight doesn't spend more time on the trail leg than the time it takes to react to the lead leg pushing the weight into it....
3:33 1 or 2 % that's practice but still its helpful for us. No question my balance is horrible on a snap hook. Finish on my rt. toes. A lot of pros have an idea of what they want to do that ultimately takes care of issues indirectly. Bubba said he liked to imagine he turned like a rubber band winding up the torso. He then said width back width down width past.
Interesting. It kind of reminds me a little of when Nick Faldo shows his swing from the chest up of wedge, iron and then driver. They all look identical and you can't tell which is which.
This is really good info. What I find with my students is they are always in a rush to hit the ball that they 1 fail to make the pressure shift and 2 the transition becomes to rushed and the body and arms do not sync up one or the other is to quick.
Those moments at 9.00 are gold!! And also when he says more weight transfer in your back foot for a hook. Are you able to tell how much weight percentage for different shots? Great vid!
For all the hundreds, nay, thousands of lessons this guy has had, his swing has never changed and he still can't compress the ball !!! A lesson for us all there😮
15 years ago Mike Maves released his The Move vid. In it he explains the trail foot pressure position and Hogans extra spike. In it his friend stated “you are hitting that boat out there every time. The trail leg is the pivot. It is a key to consistency. This is old news. Don’t need 10s of thousands dollars in a gadget to know that.
Very helpful insight. I’ll definitely be more aware of applying consistent pressures next time I’m practicing. Question: is there a consistent relationship to where the club mass is when the pressures get back to 50/50 in the transition, or does this depend more on the particular player and/or the length of club? Question: when the pressures return to 50/50 should a player feel the pressures spread out evenly across the bottoms of the feet or more towards the balls and heels of the feet? Thanks
8:35 85% in the trail side before the club is parallel with the ground is unbalanced as the 15% left over won't allow us to be stable as we try to shift the weight from trail to lead
This was very interesting I’m going to try what Scott said about hitting balls from front foot and all the way to the back foot and see what works better. As to the rest of the video I’m not sure why you started dancing around and talking about how you get your weight there. It would be cool to see if you hit a bucket of balls with 5 different clubs then take the top few shots with each club and see if your weight shift was similar with all your good shots.
Kinda like lag, feel like this is just a result of a good consistent movement/action. Not something you necessarily try to force. I don't think any of these pros got as good as they did chasing measurements of another pro. They just kept practicing until they optimized their swing and efficiency.
I’d like to ask if you can gain access to force plates What would dr recommend in a more consumer affordable device (salted or bal on) if we were looking to start using a consumer friendly device to measure grf
@@BEBETTERGOLF you need to review the bal-on insert. Be real interested in your opinion of them. Because you review stuff from our perspective (the general amateur player)
Not mentioned is when the most weight is distributed on the backswing. Tommy’s was about waist high yours was just past your back foot. . To me when you do it is more important. Or does it not matter since it wasn’t a point of interest?
Scott told me when didn’t matter too much (although too late is a problem) just that it happens around the same time and the real key is amount of pressure being consistent
@@BEBETTERGOLF i was actually gonna delete this comment, because i wrote it too early in the video, watched the whole thing, i think you are doing great things with your Channel! After you have seen this i will delete my comment.
I think you could get pressure plates from Uneekor for a couple thousand. It only works with their simulators but they rolled out a few options from 4k and up.
Your arms are 10% of your weight, if I set up 50/50 and only swing my arms am I at 60% on the right? So Tommy's 75 is actually only 15 body (if you see what I mean)
It’s bc pros swing differently than what’s being taught to ams. They have a lot of hip restriction, lack hand depth at the top, and stay very centered over the ball. No idea why more coaches don’t teach this.

Really good video. Makes sense that the most consistent pattern is one where the pressure is the most consistent

The damage that I could do in that beautiful backyard with my shanks would be nothing short of catastrophic.
I got 2 or more holes in my dry wall

You wouldn't damage the yard. But the windows.....

You think the look rushed because they take too long to re center?

Great vid!
Gotta feel it
@@BEBETTERGOLF for draws is the weight transfer about 80 and fades 70?
What would be a good trigger for a front post type swing please? Who would be a good example? Thank you! Love the channel 👍

The more rotary step drill at 24:22 looks exactly like what you were doing with Marcus of @GRFgolf.

Inconsistencies are often driven by reactions to undesirable ball flights
When Hank Aaron hit a baseball his right foot was off the ground. Nearly.
Kinda like lag, feel like this is just a result of a good consistent movement/action. Not something you necessarily try to force. I don't think any of these pros got as good as they did chasing measurements of another pro. They just kept practicing until they optimized their swing and efficiency.
thought rendan might fly the net with a wedge!
I’d like to ask if you can gain access to force plates
What would dr recommend in a more consumer affordable device (salted or bal on) if we were looking to start using a consumer friendly device to measure grf
I have salted. For peak pressure they work well

Scott told me when didn’t matter too much (although too late is a problem) just that it happens around the same time and the real key is amount of pressure being consistent
But pressure shift is different from COM shift. You can shift you pressure 100% trail side without Mass even moving back.
The glass doors and neighboring windows make me nervous.
Me too!
So Tommy would shift 75% trail side and 25% front? Does this mean 75% of his weight remained on his trail side?
No it doesn’t remain there. That is the max amount of pressure that gets to his trailside and he does that every time about the same timing.
It only says it max pressure for a small instant
It would be very interesting to chart the shift from 75% right side to his left side - particularly around the completion of backswing/ downswing
How to get this dialed in to get more consistent, "buy 40 k$ forceplates😂
Near the end Scott shows u best way to do with without the plate. The 5x5x5 drill
Or hit 800 balls a day for a year.

The audio on your videos recently is quite annoying if you're using headphones - simple mono would be much better
I’ll have to listen to it on headphones because it sounds really good to me. I just switched to the DGI Mike and I’ve been really happy with it.

Great point. Scott says 80 percent of
Max pressure is about normal. So a 70 percent to the trail side guy would be slightly “stacked”
Well this comment explains why my backswing “shoulder turn only” feel worked so well for consistency lol probably calmed down my pressure shifts
It’s bc pros swing differently than what’s being taught to ams. They have a lot of hip restriction, lack hand depth at the top, and stay very centered over the ball. No idea why more coaches don’t teach this.
@@adamcurtis2596I wouldn’t say hip restriction, that’s an effect. The cause is a braced core.
Pls cut the music off, I don’t think think we are watching a scary movie, what’s with this music?
Kinda love the music in the intros…
If you are not a scratch golfer by now you really suck. With all this great teacher teaching you😅😊
