230808 – Swing Notes 1 w tracer



*critical for intent: KEEP knees QUIET and STABLE on backswing so they respond to the upper body coiling by moving minimally then SWING left arm HORIZONTALLY and LOW as possible with the ground plane. Address take weaker left hand grip, ALIGN clubshaft just INSIDE and LOWER than the left shoulder. 

*other notes: On downswing LOWER the pelvis then WIDEN the angle between pelvis and right groin creating a right groin stretch to transfer power to the left arm.

Short Game:

Chip with the eyes, see the line from clubface to the hole.

For bumps use putting stroke in feel.

For long range pitch use putting stroke in feel.

For soft squishy lie use bunker swing.

Putt with the eyes, see the line from Putter face to hole.

Bunker: 

Open face at address such as 45 degrees open AND Hit it fat. Same as the short game listed in full swing but open club face for bounce and try to hit the shot fat but with a full swing. SMACK the sand and hit fat.

Shape shots:

Use foot pressure to shape the shots, 3 arcs: outside arc, middle arc, inside arc. When weight is mid foot the clubhead travels along the middle arc. When weight is at balls of foot the clubhead travels along the outside arc. When weight is in the heels the clubhead travels along the inside arc. On backswing put pressure in right heel, INITIATE downswing with pressure in the right heel, this makes the club travel inside longer.
