Drill To Switch To A Body Swing vs. Arms Swing
In this tip I am showing you a drill you can do to switch to a body swing vs. and arms swing. If you want to learn the powerful, effortless, pain-free swing that I teach you need to hit the ball with your body not your arms. To do that, you need to change the way you think.
I say this because in golf the ball is stationary. This means that as you reach the top of your backswing you will try to hit hard with your arms. This is due to human nature telling you to hit the ball hard with your arms. This is not what pros are doing and will never work. So a body swing vs. and arms swing is the way to go.
So here is a drill you can to switch to a body swing vs arms swing. This is not a drill to hit perfect shots. It's a drill to switch you to using your body not your arms. So watch this tip and start working on it right away. You can do this at the range or at home. The more you do it, the faster you will learn a body swing.

Are You Too Tight In Your Backswing (Here's How To Check)

    This drill really is amazing Paul. For me it really helps facilitate that separation with the hips, because I need to use the hips to fling the club off. Also It seamlessly works with a drill you have in your indoor body swing section where you touch the traps and then you extend your arm to get that nice thumbs towards the ear position. So I'll do the lag drill three times in a row and on the fourth time I'll extend my arm then swing and try to maintain that feeling of lag. I film myself doing drills, and recently I noticed I was casting the club, so I figured I needed to work on lag, and of course you had the perfect fix. Just doing this drill a bunch of times has totally cured it. I watch back video of me in slo-mo and I'm over-the-moon because I can't believe the positions I'm achieving. Can't thank you enough Paul.

    • @paulwilsongolf
      @paulwilsongolf 7 годин тому

      Yes, this is a good one for sure. The problem is getting people to do it for more than 3 tries. Mind boggling that people want lag. I show them how to get it in minutes and they don't do it. This is one of the main things holding people back. Glad you see it. Keep doing it and you will have it forever.

    Sir, in my case, my chicken wing is from early "release", i.e., "helping it with my hands", and in order to NOT hit it fat, I stand up and chicken wing-it! Hogan's head dropped 4" on average between address and impact (from bending and pushing off his back foot to initiate the swing)... I actually stand UP! (to compensate for early release). Maybe I'll go back to tennis....(because correcting this issue is the hardest thing I've ever attempted to fix)

      I appreciate that! I know what's out there. Seems they are trying to seem smart with all the bones, joints and muscles. As soon as I hear this my brain turns off. Could you even imagine telling a 75 year old he needs more radial flexion or ulnar deviation. Mind boggling. Just more stuff to confuse people and keep them coming back for more lessons. I have always kept the student in mind from lesson 1 back in 1991. Has to be fast and easy. Plus, you need to do it without me. Isn't that the goal? Well, seems they are all teaching it now so I am becoming lost in the confusion. Glad you found me. I will keep doing what I do.

  • @dalejanjohn
    @dalejanjohn День тому

    Thanks for all you do and share. I'm a disciple and a Body Swing man. Recently I have had a lot of success using a very narrow stance, even with long clubs. It greatly facilitates my "body swing", slows me down, and just generally makes the swing seem "easy" (in several senses of the word). My ball contact, direction, distance, and consistency have all improved. It has worked through numerous practice sessions and several rounds of golf. When I say narrow, I mean between about four to eight inches (with driver) clear between my heels. Any advice or comments about this? Between too wide and too narrow is it better to err on the narrow side of stance width?

    • @paulwilsongolf
      @paulwilsongolf День тому

      I do this as a drill sometimes. If you had your feet together you would have one axis which makes it real easy versus spreading them apart. For you to be a few inches apart you are closer to 1 axis so it works great. I say if you are going to have the wrong stance always be more narrow than wide so you are on the right track. Keep doing it.

    • @paulwilsongolf
      @paulwilsongolf День тому

      Well, as you hit your shots you should be focused on the target. The more you focus on a tighter spot (leaf on a tree not the whole tree) the more you forget about your swing so yes, this would work on full swings too.

      I can cure this but I do not have it posted on UA-cam. I do have other fixes on here that you can try. Basically, you are hitting with your arms. In doing so YOU are contracting your arm muscles. They do not contract on their own. You are sending the signal to contract them.

      Glad you found me and glad you came to the realization something has to change. Most never do. Start with neutral grip, don't tilt too much at set up. Super loose wrists. Then power it with legs and hips.

      ​@@paulwilsongolf You're not wrong about it all. Obviously. Which explains why the more I play, the worse I play. The more i play, the more tense I must get, the more I try to control the ball....rather than focusing on the body and wrists being relaxed. Golf is a serious mind game. Everything is opposite.

    Paul is the best at keeping it simple, By the way this really works. What I need Paul, is for you to put out a video on how to get rid of the yips when chipping (especailly short chips, the ones you need to just get over the collar 1 or 2 yards in the air). You do that Paul and a nice bottle of Bourbon will arrive in the mail for you to enjoy with some mates. 😊😊

    This causes me the most anxiety when I’m at the range and we’re hitting off grass. My damn fat shots makes it look like I brought a back hoe to the range not a set of clubs. I get so embarrassed cause I’m spraying dirt all over the people around me. Ugh I gotta remember if my back foot is lifting then my weight is shifting.

      These shots are so easy to fix. Since 1991 literally ball 1 the person is fixed. Remember it then try it. Then remember it for the future so you can easily fix them.

    Paul, i recently started hitting 5-6:fat/thin shots per round. I have even moved up in tees and am hitting more loft into greens, but I’m still doing it. I’m a 12:handicap. It dawned on me that I quite often don’t remember seeing the club actually strike the ball. I am not a beginner either. Any thoughts? It’s driving me crazy!

      Fat shots: ua-cam.com/video/UwynwFBldv4/v-deo.html Thin shots are you trying to hit too hard. Slow down to 50%. Loosen your arms and no more fat shots.

    On the down the line view your head seems to dip on the through swing. Is that something you're aware of or doing on purpose?

    • @paulwilsongolf
      @paulwilsongolf 3 дні тому

      This happens with the right fundamentals. You start on one tilt you hit it on more tilt so you are getting lower plus you are watching the ball you are about to hit so the head drops. Don't even think about it. Work on the fundamentals and your head will drop too.

    What if your left handed golfer and your dominant hand is the right hand which is the top hand. I feel like my grip is way too strong. I do wrap on top, no longer interlock and that has helped but still pull hooking every club. Any tips there?

    • @paulwilsongolf
      @paulwilsongolf 3 дні тому

      You have the advantage. Your strong hand is the lead hand. Follow the grip as I show so it is not too strong. 2 knuckles not 3 then wrap the bottom hand on top. You are pulling it because you are hitting with your arms. Need to get the legs and hips moving. Watch: ua-cam.com/video/FOB9geBbyFA/v-deo.html

    Today, I tried an exercise suggested by another channel; it was to take 10 seconds for the down swing. Just one time of doing this showed me that I was opening my hips too late. Opening them earlier also caused my shoulders to unwind sooner. That in turn allowed my chest to be more facing the target at ball contact. The thing that nobody talks about is that in order to take a divot, your right shoulder must be lower than it is at address (or so I think). On the range I hit the best iron shots of my life doing this.

    • @paulwilsongolf
      @paulwilsongolf 3 дні тому

      Yep, every tip I have explains you need to be using your legs and hips to hit the ball. Need open hips at impact which few amateurs do. Here is why a divot if taken: ua-cam.com/video/_ji_zykZlY8/v-deo.html Here is why you are not using your legs and hips: ua-cam.com/video/0gOuKQpUl54/v-deo.html And: ua-cam.com/video/fuOJxv_22Hk/v-deo.html

      @@paulwilsongolf Paul, I don't see why the oval formed with the double axis would get the club head closer to the ground, although it would create a longer divot. To me it is all about unwinding the shoulders earlier to get the right shoulder and arm lower. The only other way to get lower would be to do some "squat" as you swung the shoulders open but I don't think most golfers, if any, do that. I really appreciate you talking to me!

    • @paulwilsongolf
      @paulwilsongolf 2 дні тому

      The oval tilts because your spine tilts so it will not fix in the space provided. A circle would. An oval will not. Hit balls with your feet together. You will see no divot. Spread them and you get the divot.
