This drill really helped me. Redoing my whole form to drop bad habits and was getting lost in the little improvements I was trying to add. Did this drill in the field, after finding it a little impractical when I watched the first time, and it immediately helped. Grounded my form and improved my brace. Gave me a great reference for for the feel of the swing I wanted. Cheers!
I'm not understanding how dropping the heel of the lead foot ("crushing the can") causes the hips to rotate, unless you're rotating that lead foot or crushing down on that lead foot at a position that is less than 90 and pointing more towards the target (as opposed to in a straight line). Like, I SEE your front hip rotating at the end of the butt wipe, so I get that it does happen, but trying to understand what movement causes the front hip to rotate. Is it solely the "crushing the can", and if so, is the "crushing the can" a simultaneous crush AND rotation of the lead foot? I'm struggling to figure out how "lateral weight shift" (so...a side to side movement, right?) could result in the body NATURALLY rotating. Something would have to rotate at some point during or after that lateral shift, right? Thank you for any insight you can provide to this newbie!
At 5:45 you mention: "if you're leveraging hard enough against the rear foot it's going to go into the wall as you come up" Is that something I'm supposed to feel in this drill, or only when you're actually throwing? I don't feel this leveraging and just wondering if I'm doing something wrong.
I don't think it's crucial in this drill, just something that may happen. May depend on your body tilt, the speed at which you do the drill and how forward you move. When your weight leaves the rear foot, the remaining torque through your leg/foot takes the foot in that direction as it leaves the ground/loses pressure against the ground. The second half of the Hershyzer Wall Drill takes this further, and you should automatically do this in the Swivel Chair and Turbo Encabulator drills.
I hear a lot about hip/shoulder separation. How do you maintain that when "the rear butt wipes against the wall"? It seems like it's rotating your whole body backward. At least that's what it feels like when I try it. My hips get pointed pretty backward so there's not much room for me to separate my shoulders further. Maybe I've got the wrong idea though.
If you lag or leave the lead shoulder/arm/disc behind like door frame or bow and arrow drill, the rear hip will coil/load against that inertia as the hip strides targetward and door frame turning you back away. You can also swing back away and create stretch as the backswing pulls on you away from target.
@@seabas22 so essentially, the separation can largely start to occur as the hips uncoil but the throwing arm/shoulder is staying behind a bit? Also, it sounds like you’re saying the hips continue to coil back as they do move targetward?
@@jimmyblundell7600You do not really want separation as the hips uncoil, that's a good way for lower spine injury to happen like Patrick Cantlay. th-cam.com/video/hBFjwGzG4XA/w-d-xo.html The hips/pelvis are turning back with the shoulders, but the shoulders are turning back faster than the hips/pelvis, so the torso still coils while everything is turning back away. IMO it is better to think the rear hip moves the same counter clockwise circular motion throughout, rather than reversing rotational direction. www.dgcoursereview.com/forums/showthread.php?t=139973

solid videos dude, keep them coming, I'm learning the fundamentals, saving me years of searching

Hey stranger!
@@seabas22 OG viewer, that's for sure. Glad you're still making content!
excellent video. this one really helped me after putting together all the others!
This is amazing.. thank you sir. THANK YOU
At 0:45 you mention the front foot is going to be a couple inches in? Does it need to be closer or further away from the wall than your rear foot?
front foot further from wall.
@@seabas22 I assumed that but just want to make sure I'm doing it right. It's just like from yhe front camera angle! Thanks
Do you have any advice to transition the drill into full shots?
Slow down until you can do it.

The heel dropping pulls the hip, and the foot pushing into the ground westward pushes the knee eastward which pushes the hip east.

Hi,
When "crushing the can" are you attempting the "inside swing drill (wound up/x-factor)" just before you heel plant "crush"
yep
Love the vids man.
Who's throwing in the in the first 30 seconds of the video?
