How To Get The Trail Shoulder THROUGH The Ball

In this video, Adam goes over how to get through impact with your body. Our student in this video has a tendency to hang back in the downswing which causes high and starting right shots. In order to neutralize this tendency, the trail shoulder needed to get through impact faster! Adam also goes over 2 drills that will help the cause!

Within 2 minutes I actually understood what I’ve been doing wrong. Thanks Adam you are are definitely the best online instructor, if only I saw your videos a couple of years ago thanks great presentation.

You’re sooo spot on with the chain effect of one wrong move. I had this problem because i was hinging early and rolling my hands behind me. How in the world would I ever have faster hands like your student here with a terrible swing plane? Good stuff!!!

Only if ive found your instructions 22 years ago i would have learned the right way to swing the club. Ive been struggling all these years with the driver. I heard of connecting arm-body but never know how to do it until seeing your video. Thank you Adam .

i'm so glad you made this video. i have this same issue. ive never been able to find a video of anyone talking about this. 99% of the videos on youtube talk about slice issues. ill definitely try these drills

This all sounds good. I’m an experienced golfer 70 now. The biggest problem I’ve seen many golfers experience is coming over the top in their golf swing. I’ve found if I keep my back to the target longer, with my hands in front of my chest, with a slight closed stance, swinging inside to out, I play pretty good golf. I hit a natural draw. I’ve passed this on to many golfers that all hit the ball better afterwards. This may be contradicting what you’re saying, I’m not sure. Anytime that right shoulder comes forward has always caused problems for me. But every golfer is different. Look at all of the different swings on tour…

Great video. It's rare to find a video actually about the timing of the body swivel....vs a whipped swing. I find that, when I get it right, my shot accuracy goes way up. The body and mind aim with the timing between swing and body swivel....and it's a great thing when you get it right.

Same as always great golf instruction, your the man

I’ve been hitting solid with a slight fade but today every time I got up to hit, my grip, backswing, downswing, everything felt off and I was snap hooking a lot. I think this video was spot on for me

This student's swing looks like Bo Weekly's (one of tour's great ball strikers when he was healthy) the way he keeps his right arm and wrist angles stable from the top of the backswing all of the way to when right hand is in front of right thigh. Nice, simple, powerful swing. I've always had an issue getting right elbow forward on downswing. I'll be using his swing as a model since I have an issue getting right elbow forward on downswing. Nice job!

This was great. More transition and downswing videos please ❤

Kev deserves comment recognition too.
Kev, you continue to be the man. Remember, the camera man always survives. You got that going for you and the Dalai Lama owes you one.

[mattmalloff]

Is this the same concept as "hammering the nail" with the butt end of the club around lead thigh area? Thx.

[mattdipadua]

Man I’m close to that clinic could never afford but that sounds amazing

The trail shoulder through the ball? Absolutely!

At age 77 I found a short cut using the seesaw effect of my scapula bone that is attached to my turning chest (rib cage)

I start my backswing under the direction of my trail scapula bone gliding two inches towards my spine as this will automatically bring my lead shoulder/chest down. Under the seesaw effect of the scapula bone I start my backswing simply by activating my lead side scapula to glide about four inches towards my spine. This keeps me in my golf posture turning my right shoulder/ chest down as my club head centripetal force smashes through my ball sending it straight to its intended target. My club head will then continue around my turning chest over my lead shoulder to finish my swing.

It is all part of the double pendulum swing known by some as the Bell effect of golf; the bell ring the gong; not the gong ringing the bell. Cheers 🥂😊👍

Another gem Adam! So when we hit r irons, with the hip bump, do we drive off the back leg or focus more on the front leg

[insomnialife]

Adam, You had a video that you showed at start of back swing to start left hand under kind of like point knuckles down at very start of back swing. It was just a small point. Helped me a lot but cannot remember the video. can you comment or point me back to video as want to watch again.

[Brolicherbs]

love it. This is currently my main issue.

[annefilippobertozzi]

Great video, as usual... it seems to me that "skip a rock" as swing thought, would sumarize this concept: am I wrong?

[darrellhouston]

6 3 cant seem to get any zip coming from inside.When hands high at top get some compression.

I have been under plane on the downswing all year. Have always understood that the lower body needs to lead the dowswing. Will instead try to activate the arms/hands early.
