Top 25 Golf Pro Lesson; Takeaway and Starting Swing
Posted under Pro Golfers by Petewww.shawnclementgolf.com Shawn Clement, Director of the Richmond Hill Golf Learning Centre, and Top 25 CPGA Teaching Professional as rated by Score golf Magazine, shows you how to start your swing properly and smoothly;
keep your head still. you make alot of ammature mistakes.
HI Shawn ,Rick, I am the inventor of the csquare golf ball that I sent you . Didn’t I tell you I watch your videos . Love the fact that your videos are always created in thought.
Hey Shawn,
I love your videos. One quick question, How can I keep myself from ducking on the backswing? my left knee turns in too much, and causes me to duck. should I put more weight on my right foot? or should i try to straighten my left foot, and not bend it as much.
Thanks
The person who asks regarding why Shawn isn’t on tour is not only grammatically challenged a little, he’s also a jerk. Does he not know that only 125 people in the ENTIRE WORLD are on the tour? Let’s put it this way: Butch Harmon is not on the tour. Nor is Hank Haney. I’m learning off Shawn FROM VIDEOS ONLY so far. And getting better. Teachers excel at teaching, something which thousands of people experience with Shawn Clement. Keep up the great work, Shawn!
yeah Shawn, why bother to answer a fool, You have transformed my game. I cannot begin to thank you enough for all the FREE instruction you offer. You truly love the game as I do thank you again.
hey I have sent a video message to you. In the vid i’m the blue dude. I was wondering why my shots have the tendancy to hook sometimes, Im sure it’s hook and not draw tho. Also how can I make my shots more consistent at this time I shoot (on average) 10 yards left or right of the target I have. Length is not a problem for me, it’s mostly the aim or hooking the shot. I don’t have any other problems. I hope you can help, thanks!
@drdeathkwp Some people have a natural talent to teach. To be able to express a technique in a manner that many people can both understand and easily incorporate it into their own game is rare. Instead of being snarky and rude appreciate the loads of free content being offered here by Shawn. I do. Thanks.
good tip
@clemshaw Great answer, I’ve also wondered about this regarding to you since you seem pretty good.
your personality is a pleasure to watch and your teaching is very sound. there are many people out there who have the knowledge yet cannot bridge the gap.
you succeed. please keep it going.
@drdeathkwp
Shawn, I’m surprised you even responded to this fool, although I did like your responses. Let’s see…..how many “great” golf teaching pros do we know that are also touring pros?
Hi Sahwn it’s Aldo Here, I’m 5′5 I grip my irons club ver short because it’s standard club fit, how do you think has to be the fit’s of my club I mean how lenght because I with my long irons especially I feel very longs the club, thanks other think the the only way I can hit very solid shot it;s feeling a very smooth take way I mean very slow of course I snocht my right knee to feel the momentum, please thanks
your a dink …
Hi Shawn
One observation. We see on tour telecasts(specially Ladies) that the takeaway is very very slow. Does not seem to be a toss at all. How do we reconcile this with inertia and arms getting lifted with the body and not on their own.
Shawn, I have a question re.takeaway.
Is your first move thought ‘move arms’ or is it ‘rotate round axis/spine’ and hence the arms move as well.
If I move I think move arms-I will often takeaway outside the line, but if I rotate and let arms move with rotation this gives what I percieve as a good takeaway, I then just raise my left arm like mad (2 plane swing). Be interested what you think.
Cheers
Cocky
Maybe he doesnt want to?
You can be brilliant without being a tour pro-plus also you generally have to be very long and deadly with the putts.
Tour players are a very special breed, they thrive on competition and can’t wait to pounce on the next opportunity to kick someone’s behind, unless it is self defense, I prefer to do the opposite, I am one of the people in the team who is there to help the golfer, for personal best, for fitting in, for an education, for love of the game, or to kick someone’s behind…:) So rewarding!
To be on tour is a very selfish thing; everything you do and all the people who are around you are there to accommodate your needs; it is often very lonely and you can’t really rely on anyone else out there in case things go wrong; after 3 years playing the Canadian Tour and mini tours in the US, it was clear that teaching golf was for me, I am a people person and get a huge kick out of helping people and can’t wait to get up in the morning to do my job which I would do in retirement anyways…
thats a question a kid would ask do you really not know the answer…. there is alot of good golfers. but few great golfers.
@drdeathkwp Why aren’t all instructors in med school practicing surgeons?
Shawn
Great video, love the crane and wrecking ball analogy.had an horrendous month with shanks and slices this video confirmed the right way to take the club back hitting solid draws again
Cheers
If he is so good why isnt he on tour ?
If hes so good, why isnt he on tour ???
“golf pro lesson perpetual motion drill” and “golf pro lesson timing and tempo update”; letting the momentum from the follow through going into the backswing track the arm-club unit into the proper plane so that it can fall back down the plane to the target; see also “golf pro lesson arms falling down plane” Shawn
This is a great video-Shawn thanks, it has helped me with a little issue I have.
My other big problem is re routing the hands to an outside plane-the over the top move (Bsically the opposite that sergio does, it makes me come in very steep and hit it all over the place).
What are the best drills for this?
