Hey everyone, Shawn and Sav. Hi everybody. Sav just came back from Utah where she had
a personal best 327-yard drive. You're too little for that. And so we want to
make sure that you have the wherewithal to be able to benefit from maximum leverage so that
you can hit the best drives that you can for your game. Stay with us
now, before we get started, you know, we, you don't want to miss any of your future
shows between us here, especially with S so please subscribe to the channel, hit
The bell. It gives a thumbs up and leaves it to comment down below
The concept of leverage when you're in a tug of war, let's say, so go ahead and take your setup
position. Like you're gonna, like, you're gonna swing in that direction there, Sav.
Yeah. Bring the club into my hands. So if you and I were in a tug of war together and you wanna pull
me towards you and everybody see that. So S is in this beautiful squatted position on the inside of
your left foot. Exactly. So if you come over here on top of your left foot and try to pull,
you're just gonna pull yourself towards me. Aren't you Yeah. You
see what I mean Mm-hmm so you're out of leverage mm-hmm so let's see a facing that
same direction. Yeah. Do a back swing where you feel like you're gonna be throwing the
club in the direction of your target. So widen the stance a bit and swing.
So did everybody see how her back foot stayed on the ground Well, past the ball,
into the finish, some of the best ball strikers in the history of the game, Mo Norman, you look
at Kenny Perry who was a money-making machine on the tour, Scott ver plank, Lucas Glover. So
having both feet on the ground through impact is a major asset, not just to your accuracy, but to the
ability to compress the ball in the direction that you want to go. And it actually creates a catapult
effect in the direction of the target. So if I'm going to be, you know, we talked about a kinetic
chain, so let's say, put your club on the ground. So everybody understands what kinetic chain is,
put 'em up. I knew what you were gonna do. Right Right, exactly. So you're gonna snap a punch
here with that right hand. So you notice the first thing that happened, her left foot hit the ground.
And then because she had pressure against the ground with the left foot due, due slow motion.
Yeah. And notice how she was able to open up. So you're looking for some leverage or,
some pressure against the ground, but you also need some leverage in the golf swing to
do that. So take your club. So imagine we're gonna take the club and we're gonna throw it
toward the target. Okay. So do actually facing them, facing the camera there, and feel like
you're gonna throw it into the trees here. So give it a nice throat. Nice. So what in
essence is happening is Savanna is going to the ground, using the ground to get the body out of
the way. So what happens to many of you at this point is that your trail foot starts to come off
the ground. Mm-hmm that puts you in a very precarious position because precarious, yes.
I'm getting the ground and then the back foot's coming off the ground too soon. So now what's
happening is the trail leg is turning around the center of gravity from its position right now,
it hasn't had the chance to come all the way back behind me. Mm-hmm . So now, as this moves
behind me and away from the target is gonna create a catapult effect to send my arms and club towards
the target. And that's where you get the big juice mm-hmm . So that's why I would, you know, I say,
you know, if you want power and accuracy, you need leverage. So if you look at her swing,
the first thing you want to do is go to an uphill lie. And you'll see that on the uphill lie,
when Savannah is standing there, the weight is situated on the inside of her trail foot.
And as she goes back, you'll notice the trail foot stays bolted in the ground. And because she's
really bolted. Now she can throw the club up the hill in the direction that she wants to go on and
you notice the foot doesn't come off the ground because if the foot comes off the ground, she'll
be leaning into the slope and she's gonna stab the slope with her club. And that takes the club off
its path and sends it downwards. So you lose a lot of power that way. So for those of you who don't
have enough launch angle on their driver, this is a major asset. So now S go ahead and set up,
show me nice, full back swing and stop. Look for that leverage.
And now come on down in slow motion.
So this is clearing this way, right Mm-hmm now push against my hand.
Feel that leverage. Yeah. So that is clearing around a solid inside left foot. Mm-hmm . So
now come on down in slow motion, take your left foot off the ground way before impact.
Let it come up. There we go. Now, push . Can't do it. Can you No. So you see how your body has lost
its ability to use the ground effectively Yeah. So you're, you're losing an asset there and then all
of a sudden, whoop, it starts to unravel you start to miss some fairways mm-hmm right. So let me see
a nice swing. You're gonna just hit a 200 yards flat footed,
flat footed. Feel like you got some leverage all the way through to the finish.
Wow. That's super. So notice how straight that took off. Yeah. And it's right in line with
where you wanted to go. Mm-hmm so did you feel how, when that left foot stayed down, it forced
your right hip back. Yeah. So when should the left foot come off the ground at the very end,
at the very end. So it brings the, the lead foot back to the ground. The lead foot is clearing,
or the lead leg is clearing around. Mm-hmm release that foot is anchoring the release
also because you're staying in the direction of your target. Your head's staying back. Your head
now has something to support it. Mm-hmm release. And then the shoulder collects the head and brings
the head up. And when that happens, the foot comes up. Yeah. Okay. So that's something that
you're in a process of working on. Yeah. So let's see two more like that 200 yards flat footed.
Oh yes. But south that's a little too much distance. We, we evaluated the distance of
that post and it's two 50. Yeah. And that's what you just hit. Yeah. So flat-footed 250 yards.
One more like that.
Speaker 1:
Notice how they're all starting beautifully on that line. Yeah. And you can see the spray
pattern is pretty tight. Yeah. Okay. So now if we take this to full momentum,
rut row, rut row, so full momentum with ease and just let the foot come up at the very end.
Yes. That is on a string right in line with where you want it to go and that's deep. Yeah.
Wasn't that beautiful. Very easy. So when that foot stays on the ground,
it's like pulling on the string of a kite. Yeah. Everything gets nice and taught, but if you're
here and the foot starts coming off and the head starts moving forward, mm-hmm what do you have
to anchor that release of yours Yeah. So when you do it properly, the head stays back. The
foot stays down. It's like somebody's pulling on the club that way and somebody's holding
onto your head this way. Yeah. Okay. So let's have a look at what that looks like from face on
super deluxe. So let's try one more and make sure that foot's solid on the ground
ball, please. Who's your catty. Thank you.
Nice ball. So wasn't that straight Yeah. Little draw. Yeah.
It's pretty tight. Yeah. So isn't that fun. Yeah. Now that the spray pattern really improves your
consistency will improve and it has nothing to do with weight shift. Your weight shift,
your weight is shifting as usual mm-hmm, but you're not losing the anchor in the
process. Yeah. So hope you guys enjoyed that. Stay tuned for our next episode. See you soon.
