Hey everyone. Sean and Sav, Mu is in the background he's lurking. Don't worry. He's right here.
So we have a fantastic session with you today, to talk about low point irons versus driver,
And we've had many, many questions in the past. So this video is going to be really.
Crucial for you to understand number one, where's your low point in your swing. You
need to know where the low points should be with the irons and fairway woods is basically
The same thing and where the low points should be with the driver. Stay tuned. Here we come.

Advise you next time we have a video. You don't want to miss our videos. They're going
To be way too awesome. So let's get with it. Okay. Number one, we need a low point. So
The first thing we need to do is get a ball on a string. This, Ernest Jones, had the
Penknife on a handkerchief drill. So he, he takes away, everybody had a penknife in those
days and you tie it to a handkerchief. Everyone had a handkerchief in those days and you,
It makes a nice circle. So notice where the low point of that is now my brain says, okay,
You're a little far get closer. You're a little high get lower.
So there's me clipping the tee. You can see where the low point of that arc is now in
The human-machine. Sav, stand right over there. If I take my club and my arm and I
put it into a nice ball on a string, notice how the center of that machine as my shoulder.
And you can see how the low point is right underneath my shoulder right there. So it
Creates this nice big circle that bottoms out at the right place. If we bring both arms
together to take the grip, the two arms reunite right here, where the, my microphone is right
In the center of my sternum, right at the top of the sternal notch here. So if I swing
back and through notice where the low point will tend to be just slightly forward that
way and just slightly back this way.
So if I put it right next to the tee, you can see that the low point is just past the
tee in both directions. So Sav, come on back now with the irons, a lot of you don't
realize that you actually catch the ball first and then cut the grass. So remember, this
is a grass-cutting tool, or it's a, you know, carpenter's hammer, right So we're going to
go with the hammer. Here's the doorframe Sav. So if we put the ball right here in front
of his doorframe, there we go. And you're going to set up, like, you're going to squeeze
that ball straight into the doorframe. So let's see you take your backswing. Show me
how you would squeeze that sucker right through. So notice that's perfect. Stay right there.
So notice where our hands are right here. Well in front. So the club keeps going, the
club comes down, catches the ball.
Then if you notice the leading edge of the club is going to cut the dandelion stem. So
imagine there's a dandy line stem growing out from the center of that golf ball. And
we're going to cut it up against that, you know, that cutting board. So the low point
is actually going to be where this pink tee is. Right. So go ahead and set up backswing
and stop. Notice how Sav isn't drifting away from the doorframe, come on in and squeeze
that sucker. Notice how she's coming from the inside and squeezing right through. So
now if we put this, take that out, notice that rubber tee in front side, so that rubber
tee represents your low point. Doesn't it Right. So let's see a squeeze through the doorframe.
That was spot on. Yeah. That's one foot off the centerline there. So very nice. So now
go ahead and take your driver out so everyone can see. Now, if you had a fairway, would
the fairway wood is wider. It's the center of mass is a little bit, further back from
the shaft. So that'll play, you'll play the ball, a hair forward to that. So let's just
pretend actually Sav pretend that's a fairway wood. Okay. And you're going to drive that
through the doorframe. So show me what that would look like. Notice how her hands are
still forward. Notice how naturally, because it's a longer shaft. The angle of attack is
shallower and the low point is still going to be here in front. Yeah. Now we put the
ball on a tee. What's the diff Sav, the low points back here.
Cause you have to catch it on the way up. Exactly. So now, if you were driving that
through this door frame, you would be, pretending that the ball is going to be going. Our, our
angle of attack is about seven degrees up. That's when Rory is trying to, trying to rip
one out there and catch a big carry, he's looking at seven degrees up. And when he's
looking at accuracy, he's looking for about three degrees up, but generally, it's always
on the way up. That's where you're going to benefit from, you know, a high launch and
a low spin. And that's where you're going to maximize that distance with the driver.
Alright. So you have that lovely picture in your mind. Oh yeah. You got plenty of room.
Okay. Okay. So we're going to be throwing it to the left edge of that hole right there,
right toward that blue flag.
Awesome. I scared that I'm going to hit that.
Oh yeah. I know it feels a little confined here. We need that for the camera angles,
but you got room. Okay. You got tons of room. So let's see a nice throw to the left edge
of that intermediate point.
Bingo. Oh yeah. It's still going.
Wait, we have to back up the range for you. So the, if you look at that swing, I'm gonna,
I'm gonna put that swing and some nice, still pictures here for you. Notice where her low
point is, how everything bottoms out before it comes back up. So what we have Sav do,
and cause she's a really good club thrower and many of you out there are, and I'm telling
you like Sav was going through a little bit of a dry spell for the last couple of weeks
and it started with her side vision. So why you can't align properly, please go see that
some of you are in a slump right now. It starts with improper alignment because our, our side
vision is so bad. Yeah. So then you started getting, you started getting tentative because
you were kind of lined up a little off and then you started getting tentative.
You started losing juice. So your distance came back down. So now we had you, you know,
for the last week working on your, your setup fundamentals and then yeah. And I noticed
every time you were setting up today, went and played just before we did this video.
And your setup was really looking good. Even the, less than the, you know, the first few
holes and you were a little frustrated because your distance still wasn't back. So then on
the 5th tee box, I gave her four of my clubs to throw and we threw them down the fairway.
And then the very next drive, you absolutely bombed out there 280. Yeah. And for the rest
of the round, we just enjoyed, Hey, throw the club. And she had that, that feel in your,
in her veins. That was really, really good. So when you throw the club to the left of
the intermediate pointing, you stay to the left of the intermediate point. Yeah. Your
center stays put, yes it does. And when your center stays put, what happens You, you get
your low point stays in place. And when your low point stays in place, you're able to hit
the shots that you're supposed to hit.
I think the difference was like, I thought I was throwing it, but then I felt what it
felt like to actually throw it. And I was like, Oh, that's fine.
Not the same. Right. So go see our throwing the club, Shawn Clement C the, throwing the
clubs straight Shawn Clement. And that is basically what we talked about for your alignment
and your direction of throwing. Please be safe when you're throwing the club. So find
a nice open field, get some old clubs. Don't use graphite, shaft, the clubs use steel shaft
clubs. And so let me see, you do one more Sav. Awesome. So you just just didn't quite
stay with that one,
But it was compressed nicely.
There you go. So that was your 250 yard. 246.
Yeah. Good. Let's look at see just a little bit slightly upright in the center of the
face. Yeah.
It didn't quite release that throw, right Yeah. So let's see you throw it with some
momentum. Now, here it is.
That was a little fade, but it was right online.
That's it. Sorry about the glare in the glass. You guys. But again, if we look at you got
that, see, that's 2.6 up. It's still a little bit out to end though, isn't it Yeah, but
that was right in the center of the clubface. So that just means either the machine is not
lined up properly or you're just not throwing it to the left edge. Did you stay with that
one
I could have stayed with it more, I think. Yeah.
Let's see here. So good. Let me go out here. So you're going to throw a, just over the
Brown patch right down in the middle of it. Yes. Hang on just a second. Stay to the right
of that. Or pardon me to the left of that. So you feel how, where that's started now.
Go ahead and give it a nice throw.
Well, look at here.
So we just added a few yards to that right now you're 260, got to
have to work on the delay on that thing. So 1.7 upright in the center of the face, again,
a hundred miles an hour, just a little over a hundred miles an hour club speed. Yeah.
So, but you still didn't release that. Right. But you're so close. I think it's just cause
you feel a little restricted with the, with these lockers behind you. Okay. So we'll,
we'll cut her a little bit of slack and we, I saw how she was hitting it on the golf course
just before we got here for the video. So you're good. No worries. So I hope you enjoyed
that low point video. Really, really key for you guys to get solid contact and staying
with a specific task. Okay. You can see the hammer through video. That's going to give
you that feel up against that doorframe. So you marry that between you're throwing the
club and you're hammering drill, and everything should be hunky-dory. Don't forget to subscribe.
