Hey sorry for the late answer!
98 MPH average with 5 iron; 120 mph average with driver…

Great question!
See the “golf pro lesson how much Hit to apply” video; it starts with momentum and then the hit is applied as a momentum assistance through impact; so it starts as a swinging motion with a compression hit through impact; the best of both worlds!

shawn are you teaching a “hitters” swing or a “swinggers” swing? I think I’m a hitter so I want to make sure I get the correct instruction not to confuse myself.

Shawn, what’s your average swing speed in these videos (let’s say 5 or 6 iron)? Keep up the great work!

I went to the range today with this video in my mind, with focus on finding the momentum and not striking the ball with force. What a difference! I thank you for improving my game.

Hey; thanks for the comment!
I am not saying to not use the arms; the arms have just as much importance as everything else in the swing…the key here is how to use the arms…

Shawn! Your videos are great, thank you very much! I am a new golfer getting some quality time in with my dad, and watching these videos is really helping me perfect my swing and keep up with him every sunday.

Great help shown, I dream you a lot and my swing gets better. My golf partners still do not notice my BREND NEW swing that I keep secret at the moment. I will let them know when I get my bet money back that I have lost for many years. sorry no good english, happy new year/Jung

Hello Jette;
You are probably getting to the point of overdoing that pre-turn; feel as if you are just setting up in a way to feel like it will be easy to get out of the way of the momentum on the backswing; remember that the backswing”s takeaway is the same as the backswing of a chip shot; so go to my “Chip Yips” video as well as the “Ball Bearings and Sockets” video and set up without any pre-turn and just focus on making sure you are simply against the left side…then make way for the mo!

Hi Shawn,

I am having a few problems when I set up with my shoulders and hips slightly closed. I shank my shots a lot. Any suggestions?
My husband Norm and I are looking forward to the lessons we have set up with you in May.
Have a wonderful holiday and thank you for all the great videos you have posted.
Greetings from snowy Vancouver
