This is probably the smartest golf swing drill / concept in the history of golf. Nice Trish!

This is solid teaching…..practice hitting to an impact bag slowly you’ll feel what this teacher is instructing….the entire club strikes the ball.

great video. this also helps alot with golfers, like myself, that want to scoop the F.W.'s.

I love this swing concept and I’ve been working through it. One difficulty I’m having is when I swing the club back at the top of my swing my left wrist cups instead of flexing naturally like I’ve seen in others that have applied this technique. How do I swing the club back and have the lead wrist flex naturally instead of cupping?

👍

Perfect

Hi Trish, I’ve always understood that our position at impact is different than our position at address in order to achieve proper compression of the ball. Will we achieve the proper impact position with this drill when we take a “real” swing at the ball? Is the purpose of this drill to get us to know the feeling of swinging down with our upper arms? Thanks!

Hello, Did Manuel promote hitting woods with ball in the middle of the stance.

Could you explain the concept of swinging the club toward the target? If the swing is a circle on an inclined plane, wouldn't the club be toward the target for just an instant? Therefore, would swinging toward the target require dragging the club down the target line?

Excellent thoughts

Hi Trish. Is the ball position the same with all clubs?

So...address and impact are not the same position. Doesn't this drill lead people to believe that it is? Or is it that you want to feel that you're bringing back to the address position? The advice to swing the "whole" club down from the end of the swing is amazing because you're right, all the bs out there about dragging the handle, retaining the angle...all of that destroyed my scores. Staying centered, swinging over the shoulder, brushing the grass and swinging over the other shoulder is all of the thinking I want to do (while maintaining the circle, of course)

If the handle moves, the rest of the club does too. The handle can't move by itself.

But are you teaching the hands/handle to not be ahead of the head/ball at impact? If so, why?

Good video on the excellent de la Torre concept, but being up in age, I have a problem with the ambiguous and contradictory balance issues in the swing concept. I swing the club over my right shoulder using my hands, and I keep my weight evenly on both feet--- no way. I must lift my front foot to get the club over my shoulder. If not, the swing is too short, or I am forcing my body into a position it cannot easily reach, causing tension, to say the least. If I lift my front foot or heel, there is naturally more weight on my back foot, seemingly a de la Torre no-no. In this way, the simple swing becomes a cruel double-bind, no fun. Please solve.

Trish I like the way you present the material, but a windsock or shield might dramatically improve the intelligibility of audio and knock out the overpowering wind noise. Sometimes it completely obliterates your audio and as a general rule I won't watch breezy vids purely because it cannot hear the audio clearly enough. I'm sure you understand this, and hope that it does help your video production quality.

4 times the camera fell over and you tried a fifth time. Speaks to the type of person you are.
