All right, so we wanna hit it far, but we wanna be smooth and effortless while we're doing it. Well, I'm gonna use the technique here. It's gonna allow me to hit it really far, but really, really in control. Let's go ahead and give it a whirl.

There we go. Nice. Dead straight shot seven iron in there, 199 yards. I don't know if I'm gonna be able to do any better than that. That's about as good as I can hit the golf. Now, why is it that that looks smooth when I can hit another shot where I feel really jerky and it'll actually go shorter than that?

So let me go ahead and try to do this one . So I've topped it on that, but it's obviously very jerky. Everything's outta whack. Well, it's actually more effort on the second one, but the swing speed went way down on the first one. I didn't see the miles per hour. I usually swing around the high nineties, maybe even a hundred miles an hour with a seven.

That was all the way down to 79 miles an hour, even though I felt like there was twice as much effort. Well, there's one technique to this, and what that is, is as I go into the transition, when I start to start to shift my weight to the left, My hands will stay still as the club lags. So what we wanna feel like we're doing is in the back end of the backswing, we're gonna start out with little half swings here.

I'm gonna swing back halfway. I'm gonna feel like there's no wrist set, meaning that when my hands are about chest tie, my club is still pointing directly to the right. Then as I shift my weight to left, my hands are gonna kind of pause there as they start the downswing, and my club is gonna set back like this so it looks something like this Sounds complicated, but all it.

No wrist set. As I shift to the left, that's when I get my wrist set so I can see no wrist set, shift the left and get my wrist set. You'll also notice when I'm doing this, my right arm goes from extended to it starts to tuck in toward my shirt scene, the side of my body here. And as that happens, this club starts to fold.

So again, it looks something like this shift lag, and then swing on through. And that really smooth. Everything out and it allows that club to whip on through contact. So what I want you to do to feel this is just take it with your right hand here. First. Go back very little wrist, set with your wrist, very little bend with your right arm, and then let that tuck as you shift to the left and then swing on through.

So I'm having a little bit of a momentum shift to the right and to the left in the golf swing. I go back as I shift to the. Then it starts to lag and comes on through. So lemme just do a few swings like that and you can see how this isn't complicated at all. It's just getting down the timing of having that lag and having that club just whip through contact.

You see when I do it the other way and I pick the club up right away and then I want to throw it, that's the exact opposite. During my weight shift, the club is doing this when it should be doing that. So that can really make all the difference in the world to being able to hit those smooth shots. Lemme go ahead and hit another one and notice how in my transition, I'm gonna exaggerate like crazy here.

It's gonna look like I'm playing this in slow motion. I'm not. I'm just swinging this smoothly and I'll still get some decent distance out of this, even swinging that slow. So lemme go crazy slow on this one. , right? So the back swing was very smooth. It's that transition that really slows it down. And on that one, 170 yards with a seven iron, and you can see it looked like I was barely swinging it all.

And that's all that lagging. And then whipping it through contact, which is gonna allow you to be efficient with it and get that club to kind of take off through contact. So you're gonna do a few of those and then I want you to go ahead and add in the last piece, which is getting along through. So I'm here, very little wrist set.

I shift left as my wrist and my elbow bend, and then through through contact, I'm very long here again, so it's almost like I'm letting the cloth lag and then I'm just letting it fly out to the target. Almost no effort at all. And again, very smooth, easy swing. Almost like a little half swing here and I'm still getting it, you know, that was 150 yards.

I can get it very long. Without trying it all, and if I wanna crank it up now that once I get that moved down, I keep that same pattern, but I just go ahead and add a little bit of force to it. And that's when you can get the really crazy numbers with your seven iron or any ear clubs. And this works with every club from pitching wedge all the way up to the driver.

Let's go ahead and try that out. There we go. Nice little draw. Trying to come back 1 95 with a seven. So it's that transition move. Now, there's another piece to this that I want you to work on. Once you get this down, there's a great move for this, which is called the stick Behind the Ball Drill. And we're gonna talk specifically on how this club should work in that transition area.

And then when do we let that go? So I talked about letting it snap and let it go. How do we make that happen? What's the timing on that? How do we time up that sequencing or that? So we feel like we don't swing at all and it just explodes off there. That's the best next step. So if you remember at Top Speed Golf, just go ahead and click the instruction tab, top Speed Golf System, and then check out Video 1.2 in the top speed golf lag section.

That's a stick behind the ball drill. Fantastic results on not only getting a bunch of lag with that, but then getting that to release and getting tons of power. It's an awesome video to do. The very next step to do after you finish these drill, Best of luck and I'll see you in that video. Let's go and get started.
