Now I understand why I have calluses on my two ring fingers. Grip has been too loose. I was told to hold the grip like you’d hold a bird. Therefore I’ve always hit thin - this will help tremendously. Thank you Shawn!!
I can believe it... there are thumbs down for this terrific video??? 3:48 that is the explanation that helps me to become a much better player. Hands ahead and the correct follow through. That's phenomenal in order to understand the best way you could have to compress the ball. And no flipping anymore... once again many thanks for sharing Shawn Clement regards from Switzerland Greg.
I know! This video has the most thumbs down by far in my inventory; because they think the titlemis click bait! Haha, they just missed the secret sauce to the whole buffet of golf!!!! This is at the heart of solid ball striking and we have elaborated on this in our premium channel a lot and on the regular channel, see “big 4 predictions of golf” shawn clement”. Shawn
Hey Shawn, this drill, together with the rip the driver drill has shaved 10 shots off my handicap. Broke 80 for the first time! Thanks! Once I can get the pace of greens and improve my putting, I will die a happy man.
I love your videos and they have helped my game significantly. What’s more, I read some of the hostile and negative comments on this video. My hat goes off to you for the way you kept your cool when responding. You are a class act, thanks again.
Thank you so much, Shawn! It helped me to focus on my mistakes, and i could improve not only my swing, but also my confidence with my body, finding a new balance..great!!
I sometimes go to one of your competitors on youtube and he uses a palm grip on left hand and finger grip on the right, Hogan like on right to subdue the right overpowering the swing (side spins hooks and pushes etc. That works for me. But your set up with the slight weight on front foot at address flat out brings the big swing together with lots of power. I dropped 10 strokes with that set up.
Excellent video. The fact one cannot take a divot with too loose a grip is fundamental and I've never seen it explained before. Thank you for mentioning it. All the others, instructors included who advocate holding the club as softly as possible are off the mark. I played competitive tennis and if one isn't holding a racket firmly, when returning a fast ball, the racket tends to move back slightly at impact, instead of firmly and directly through which greatly diminishes the return. It's the same with any sport that uses a club, a bat, a racket or any tool in order to hit a ball. Thanks again, great video. I have a hard time taking divots and now I understand why.
Great video and content, after watching this I realize Ive been making the ball my target , I will concentrate on collecting the ball and delivering it to the target not the ball
I keep coming back to this video. I now have your grip and set up. It took six months to understand it. But the big thing is cutting grass. That improves the swing beyond anything. The ball is a blur. Transforms your momentum forward towards target. One question? I understand ball then grass, but then you dig some dirt at the end of the divot. Is that right? I think shaving the grass may be enough and then up to target?
Shawn, I have found a common swing flaw that can lead to hooks is the contact between the two hands coming apart at the top of the swing. Something I try to concentrate on is making sure my left thumb(right handed golfer) stays in contact with the pad of the right hand.
Shawn, I came home after a round last week where I hit almost every iron, except the short ones, on the toe. I was so frustrated I went to the internet for help. Well, there was plenty of tips for toe hits, but on one of the side links, there was an article about the best driver tip ever. It was you explaining how to start with your feet together, then flaring the lead foot and then dropping the back foot back. However, when I went back to review it, I couldn't find it. Could you direct me to that video? Thanks Mike
Reading through the comments, I saw a particular question asked of you but do not remember seeing a reply (I apologize if I overlooked your answer Shawn). Who are you currently teaching that is on tour, PGA of course, or who have you taught in the past? Also how long did you yourself play in the PGA? Thank you for your time and hit'em long and hit'em straight!!!!
+Justin Case Hey Justin! Took someone in 60th place in College Golf to #1 in 3 years and a couple NCAA records; she won the Symetra Tour Championship a couple years ago...that is the only tour player I had worked with so far...I am way too busy doing what I am doing right now to do anything about that unless one of those guys comes to me! :)
Great video! Always struggled with hitting my irons flush. Went from 150 yard 7 iron to consistent 165 yard 7 iron; also dispersion is at least 50% tighter. End result 15 - 8 handicap in 2 months.
hey Shawn. I found your swing helpful. trying to use it all the time but with the driver its not controlled. its always going to the right. the real problem i have is aliment. i line my self to the target or i think i do. but every divot i make is aiming 3 to 10 yrd left of the target and the ball goes right and and it goes left. my swing path is all over the place. driving me Nuts. is it my hands being to slow. or my chest and weight are ahead of my downswing. can you tell me what i need to do to create prefect timing.and swing path. PLEASE.
As usual. Excellent instruction Shawn. I have a question about club swing weight... Does it make sense that a club with greater swing weight will enhance the feeling of gravity. Club makers are constantly designing drivers that are lighter and lighter in an effort to create more swing speed. At some point the weight of the club will "disappear" and consequently the effect gravity will have upon the club. Right?
Shawn, A few years ago I tried Bobby Clement's Impact Zone concepts on my game. Hit some solid shots with his forward aim point idea, but couldn't adopt as I've always been a picker of the golf ball and love approaching the darn thin on a tee versus off of terra firma! How does your thinking relate to his ideas.
Again Thank You for the video and crystal clear instructions I’ve been swinging with my weight balanced not 60/40 on my front side thus not the ball then the turf
Great video as usual Shawn, my question is this, should I be taking divots with all my irons? more importantly my long irons, I have been playing my 5,6,4 in a more sweeping motion rather than taking divots could you please advise.
Feel as if the sole of the club will drag a little along the mat when you release in the direction you want to start the ball. Anticipate the Feel and sound of that little friction with the sole of the club
About grip pressure, I always assumed a light grip pressure was taught because what ever pressure you started with, it would increase in the back swing and even more in the down swing. I know mine does, even though I use a firm grip pressure to start and let it do what it wants throughout the swing. I also almost never take divots. Maybe I should start?
Well, since you have a firm grip pressure, you have the ingredients for taking some good divots! Just lower the structure more at address and predict the sole of club dragging along the ground beyond the ball when you let the weight of the club release you in the direction you want to start the ball...
Great video as always Sean - but need to clarify - are you starting your swing with 60% of your weight on your left foot (as you depict at end of your video)?
Hi Shawn. What I don't get is how you control the vertical position of the club face in order not to hit it thin or top it. My vertical control varies every single time resulting in a very random height of impact on the ball.
This is the whole point! The more you "make sure" the worse it gets! Just do the drill the way I show here and you will see, feel and hear what I mean! Your brain is allergic to repetition; see "perfect and automatic shawn clement" and then "dynamic vs static golf shawn clement" part 1-2
That is what my video series does; it is about 4 hours long and takes you through the priorities in a nice progression! Www.wisdomingolf.com and click on "my video series"
Shawn if this is how you teach and you teach 80 people a week you got a great advertiser ! My hats off to your marketing I would kill for that dude to be on my team
Keep up the good work you should watch kelvin miyahara videos on TH-cam and try and get your self a phantom camera and learn about impact deformation and shot dispersion teach more about how to eliminate slack in the arms hand and wrist thru impact and then show it with a phantom camera , no body except kelvin has made videos like this yet
I use to watch your videos along time ago maybe when you first started on you tube but now your stuff don't apply enough information about what's happening thru impact . For instance if you had explained this lesson then at the end showed a slow motion view of the ball and what this does befor and after I would so watch your videos again
What feels good is what I recommend. Blades are easier than most people think, if they feel good, use them! They will tell you what is happening better than any club, so you get to learn faster, plus, when you nail them, it is pure bliss. :)
Great lesson as usual. The SloMo videopart isn't really clear though - your camera isn't right for that kind of shots. Also, the TH-cam-popup for the ad is blocking the view on your ballposition a lot - perhaps next video take that into account ? Gonna practice 'flushing' the ball right now ;-)
Yes, you are hitting it fat because you are defaulting to the ball and sending the enegy of the swing into the ball instead of out to the target; you collect and release the ball to target or you cut through the dandelion stem towards the target (see grass whip shawn clement) and see "dynamic vs static shawn clement" part 1-2
Although many methods have similarities, this is not stack and tilt. We use the anatomy and the brain (this video is the proof) the way it was meant to be used which is with the use of analogies that youre brain can recognize and then bring into golf. Then we allow you to continue to evolve into the feel of what the golf swing brings and remove any short circuits that don't allow you to deliver to your target. Stack and tilt has a few good nuggets but can bog you down with a lot of body part thinking and positions to hit and uses the body improperly in many aspects. Many scientific bodies have come out with research in the last 15 years on how we learn motor skills and body part thinking was the worst way by far to achieve the goals.
My biggest issue/question is the release and when it happens. Appears from your video you show it as hitting through the ball, versus in some other videos you present it is far after you hit the ball and part of the follow through. So which is it, and please be consistent.
Past the ball always; in the direction you want to start the ball; my message is the most consistent out there by far; through the ball means past the ball; AT THE BALL MEANS AT THE BALL.
WOW, would never expect a reply so quickly. That's what I understood from your other videos, but needed clarification when I saw what appeared to be your wrists folding over through the ball. I used to be pretty good golfer, but have been falling back after 2 hip replacements. Trying to get to somewhat was my old game. After using many You Tube Channels, believe in your philosophy more than the technical, position instruction, which I think gets too many people focused on positions and hitting the ball rather than focusing on target. Also am still amazed at Moe Norman's instruction. Please keep up the good work. Would also like to know your secret to the weight loss you have exhibited over the last several years. Look much more fit and am sure you are enjoying it.
Yes, you bet! Thank you for the kind words! Read “grain brain” by Dr Perlmutter. Works every time I recommend; which has been a lot! His research pattern is so much like mine for golf; resonates loud and clear! Get your food sensitivities checked as well for the whole package.
Yes, good for you! That one is still running the tables and making golfers crazy! They typocally hold the club so light that the grip comes out of their hands and causes a huge loss of lag in the downswing...
Sounds like you need a stronger grip or you are not anchoring the swing enough; See "weak grip or strong grip shawn clement" and "anchor your swing shawn clement"
Several factors; camera angle, release patterns of the individual (see Bryson’s agressive release patterns; a strong grip with that would be too much) but then see my Daughter’s and she is the opposite, like Paul Azinger in his prime and Brendan Steel and Webb Simpson and Bubba Watson and so many others on tour with a strong grip. See my latest “predict perfect contact and direction shawn clement” and “how to put the ball in the way of your swing shawn clement” as nice updates to this one.
Damn! So many haters! If this doesn't work for you then don't see the vids! Fuck if all you hating were that good you would be in no need to get a short lesson for free! All of a sudden everybody is a fucking teacher! Hahahahahahah . Great video and thanks for taking the time to help people who love the sport!
Shawn divots are an imaginary thing to me. I see and here about people doing it, but I every time I try I hit a divot behind the ball. So.i stop trying.
This is our way of dealing with gravity as human beings on this planet; like a kid standing on a swing or a skate board, see "create speed shawn clement" and "throwing the club shawn clement" as well as "horse shoes and lassos shawn clement"
Can you name your video something more realistic. I mean come on, Perfect contact everytime...Try Ben Hogan. I'm sure you video doesn't turn people into Ben Hogan
Did you try it? When you perform this all the way through, your brain will come to the realization that it cannot miss the ball; try to get past the title and give it a try!
I switched the title to PREDICT contact every time; contact is not a make sure proposition, it is something that you can predict when you are about to deliver on a specific task; that of feeling a nice release or throw of energy to the target where the sole of the club (the grass cutting part) zips through the turf and a bit of ground in front of the ball...
+Shawn Clement That's pretty sweet you changed the name of your video. I really do enjoy your teaching. What's your opinion on getting back to being a more feel oriented player as opposed to thinking about mechanics and positions? I think its turned into a really poor habit of mine.
To much stuff to remember. The more I have to think about during the swing the more tension develops and effortless becomes a thing of the past. Keep it simple.
this is SOOO incorrect about the grip. fred couples' right hand practically came off the club at impact it was so soft, yet he took divots and bombed it. c'mon shawn you can do better than this.
You teach 80 people a week every week for 20 years straight and then come back and tell me this. When I speak to you, there is a stadium full of people and their feedback speaking through me, far, far away from being just me!

💪👌👍Took me long enough but we got there and we are a stayin’ there!
Hey Shawn, this drill, together with the rip the driver drill has shaved 10 shots off my handicap. Broke 80 for the first time! Thanks! Once I can get the pace of greens and improve my putting, I will die a happy man.
I've been hitting everything thin and couldn't find anything and then the amazing Shawn clement comes out with this and helps me fix it!

Thank you Marty! That is what happens when you are ahead of your time! 😝👍
Shawn this video couldn't have come at a better time. I'm going to use this wisdom to win my major this year.

For toe shots you want to see "early extension shawn clement" and "blind fade and draw shawn clement" and work on the straight draw...
another good one :)
What is your theory for weight distribution from address to transition and then to finish of swing
Reading through the comments, I saw a particular question asked of you but do not remember seeing a reply (I apologize if I overlooked your answer Shawn). Who are you currently teaching that is on tour, PGA of course, or who have you taught in the past? Also how long did you yourself play in the PGA?

Beautiful strike. Do you have any tips on consistently striking out of the middle of the club face? I tend to move towards the toe end.
this worked really well for everythign up to a 7 iron everything else was sliced where do i distribute the weigth for like a 3 iron or driver
Great video! Always struggled with hitting my irons flush. Went from 150 yard 7 iron to consistent 165 yard 7 iron; also dispersion is at least 50% tighter.

How does your thinking relate to his ideas.
Hi Shawn, do you still recommend 60/40 weight distribution for iron shots?
Thanks shawn really cleared things up for me, I felt like this was correct at the range but now I know for sure
👍😀
Again Thank You for the video and crystal clear instructions I’ve been swinging with my weight balanced not 60/40 on my front side thus not the ball then the turf
hey shawn, do you know any low priced OUTDOOR driving range in the GTA? I need more practice taking divots.
Great video as usual Shawn, my question is this, should I be taking divots with all my irons? more importantly my long irons, I have been playing my 5,6,4 in a more sweeping motion rather than taking divots could you please advise.
Great question! The longer the club, the shallower the divot; so you are on the right track!
Shawn
Brilliant i have been living in a WORLD of TENSION and you have released alot of it into a better golf swing
Do you have to brace against the left side for all clubs to get good descending contact? (I've been struggling with my mid irons off the fairway)
When on a hard mat in the range, what are you going for as you have no grass/turf to cut?
Feel as if the sole of the club will drag a little along the mat when you release in the direction you want to start the ball. Anticipate the Feel and sound of that little friction with the sole of the club
Cheers!

Great video as always Sean - but need to clarify - are you starting your swing with 60% of your weight on your left foot (as you depict at end of your video)?
It really sucks that we have to put the clubs away for the winter up here in Canada. I love this game!
Hi Shawn. What I don't get is how you control the vertical position of the club face in order not to hit it thin or top it. My vertical control varies every single time resulting in a very random height of impact on the ball.
This is the whole point! The more you "make sure" the worse it gets! Just do the drill the way I show here and you will see, feel and hear what I mean! Your brain is allergic to repetition; see "perfect and automatic shawn clement" and then "dynamic vs static golf shawn clement" part 1-2
it would be great if these were in order of progression. this is great stuff.
That is what my video series does; it is about 4 hours long and takes you through the priorities in a nice progression!
Www.wisdomingolf.com and click on "my video series"
Hi Shawn, do you put a little more weight (60% ) on your lead leg on all shots or just for certain shots like draws, fades,etc?
Yes, as you can tell from this video, no matter what the shot, you are getting ready to deliver an action to the target and NEVER the ball; Shawn
Good vibes! Swinging the sword doing the sword dance feeling the vibes.
Shawn if this is how you teach and you teach 80 people a week you got a great advertiser ! My hats off to your marketing I would kill for that dude to be on my team
Mike, I have success because my students have success!! Word of mouth is everything in this game and empty promises get you nowhere!!
Keep up the good work you should watch kelvin miyahara videos on TH-cam and try and get your self a phantom camera and learn about impact deformation and shot dispersion teach more about how to eliminate slack in the arms hand and wrist thru impact and then show it with a phantom camera , no body except kelvin has made videos like this yet

Phantom or k5 is where it's at brother get one soon and start posting
Shawn this looks like stack and tilt swing or it seems like it,whats up?
Shawn, do You recommend blades or cavities? THNX
What feels good is what I recommend. Blades are easier than most people think, if they feel good, use them!
They will tell you what is happening better than any club, so you get to learn faster, plus, when you nail them, it is pure bliss. :)
Shawn Clement
A much more slender Shawn these days. The weight loss has helped you tremendously.
Thank you man! Never going back there! 😀👍
Great lesson as usual. The SloMo videopart isn't really clear though - your camera isn't right for that kind of shots. Also, the TH-cam-popup for the ad is blocking the view on your ballposition a lot - perhaps next video take that into account ?
Gonna practice 'flushing' the ball right now ;-)
shaun i struggle with a fat shot any ideas?
Yes! Please see "throwing the club shawn clement" as well as "Dynamic vs Static Shawn Clement"
great thanks
thanks, your are really amazing teacher
Genius. I wish I could get you as a coach.
I'm 73 years old and I love to see correctly patterned divots after a correctly hit golf shot.Thank you Shawn ,excellent job.
Nice to see order and it is nice to feel orderly in the mind! :)
Shawn,
I have a lot of pain in my left elbow. I hit most of my shots fat. Could this be why I'm having pain in my elbow?
Yes, you are hitting it fat because you are defaulting to the ball and sending the enegy of the swing into the ball instead of out to the target; you collect and release the ball to target or you cut through the dandelion stem towards the target (see grass whip shawn clement) and see "dynamic vs static shawn clement" part 1-2
isnt this technique called the stack-n-tilt?
Although many methods have similarities, this is not stack and tilt. We use the anatomy and the brain (this video is the proof) the way it was meant to be used which is with the use of analogies that youre brain can recognize and then bring into golf. Then we allow you to continue to evolve into the feel of what the golf swing brings and remove any short circuits that don't allow you to deliver to your target. Stack and tilt has a few good nuggets but can bog you down with a lot of body part thinking and positions to hit and uses the body improperly in many aspects.
Many scientific bodies have come out with research in the last 15 years on how we learn motor skills and body part thinking was the worst way by far to achieve the goals.

this guy is crazy good
Thanks Richard! Much appreciated! Check out the talk me and Brandel Chamblee have on my Wisdom in Golf Facebook page!

Perfect
its great
HA! guy next to me on range the other day tried to get me to loosen up my grip so he could easily pull it out of my hands... I told him to see you
Yes, good for you! That one is still running the tables and making golfers crazy! They typocally hold the club so light that the grip comes out of their hands and causes a huge loss of lag in the downswing...
what i like about you is your swing is more Furyk than Scott and that makes your advice all the more trust worthy to the average golfer
Sounds like you need a stronger grip or you are not anchoring the swing enough; See "weak grip or strong grip shawn clement" and "anchor your swing shawn clement"
Your club face looks a little open at address. Unlike your grip video which says to close the face by 30 degrees. Am I missing something?
Several factors; camera angle, release patterns of the individual (see Bryson’s agressive release patterns; a strong grip with that would be too much) but then see my Daughter’s and she is the opposite, like Paul Azinger in his prime and Brendan Steel and Webb Simpson and Bubba Watson and so many others on tour with a strong grip. See my latest “predict perfect contact and direction shawn clement” and “how to put the ball in the way of your swing shawn clement” as nice updates to this one.

whats your secret from wide to narrow body ? :)
The book is called “grain brain” by. Neurologist MD Dr Perlmutter.
Damn! So many haters! If this doesn't work for you then don't see the vids! Fuck if all you hating were that good you would be in no need to get a short lesson for free! All of a sudden everybody is a fucking teacher! Hahahahahahah . Great video and thanks for taking the time to help people who love the sport!

Thank you Roberto; just keep in mind we have a few juniors that watch our videos; just a bit more careful with your french...:)
+Wisdom in Golf Premium your right. I'm sorry. I just hate people that all of a sudden are pros. My apology
Ah - it's like the club is acting like a bone attached to other bones in your body. One of many levers operating through your body as you swing.

Shawn divots are an imaginary thing to me. I see and here about people doing it, but I every time I try I hit a divot behind the ball. So.i stop trying.
Bruce willis!!
8 people want to keep skulling it
hey shawn..have you lost weight?..you look good there!
someones had a sponsor from nike haha
1st!
You look like you are bobbing up and down but I see no explanation of why.
This is our way of dealing with gravity as human beings on this planet; like a kid standing on a swing or a skate board, see "create speed shawn clement" and "throwing the club shawn clement" as well as "horse shoes and lassos shawn clement"
Can you name your video something more realistic. I mean come on, Perfect contact everytime...Try Ben Hogan. I'm sure you video doesn't turn people into Ben Hogan
Did you try it? When you perform this all the way through, your brain will come to the realization that it cannot miss the ball; try to get past the title and give it a try!
I switched the title to PREDICT contact every time; contact is not a make sure proposition, it is something that you can predict when you are about to deliver on a specific task; that of feeling a nice release or throw of energy to the target where the sole of the club (the grass cutting part) zips through the turf and a bit of ground in front of the ball...
+Shawn Clement That's pretty sweet you changed the name of your video. I really do enjoy your teaching. What's your opinion on getting back to being a more feel oriented player as opposed to thinking about mechanics and positions? I think its turned into a really poor habit of mine.

Such an ugly swing. But gets the job done.
What parts of the swing make it look ugly to you?
To much stuff to remember. The more I have to think about during the swing the more tension develops and effortless becomes a thing of the past. Keep it simple.
this is SOOO incorrect about the grip. fred couples' right hand practically came off the club at impact it was so soft, yet he took divots and bombed it. c'mon shawn you can do better than this.
You teach 80 people a week every week for 20 years straight and then come back and tell me this. When I speak to you, there is a stadium full of people and their feedback speaking through me, far, far away from being just me!
You got owned
What a load of rubbish
80,000 subscribers can't be wrong.
c'mon Jeff you can do better than this
