Strike Your Irons Like a Tour Pro With This One Simple Drill
All right, so let's talk about how to be incredibly consistent. Hit the ball really solid and make a lot of the same moves that the tour pros are making. Let's give it a shot. There we go. I hit that one. Pretty Dagg on. Good. The ball's just got a nice little draw to it just right at the target. 1 94 carrier with a six iron.
Felt like I swung easy. 97 miles an hour. That's 3, 4, 5 miles an hour faster than tour average. And it's all about, for me, what I'm feeling there is I want this club to lag and then whip and kind of kind of just take off through contact to get that easy, effortless speed. I really wanna feel like the ball just sinks into the face and just kinda explodes off there.
Let me walk you through a progression of exactly how to get that same feeling. So the first thing we're gonna do is something. Incredibly counterintuitive. Almost nobody does this the right way without being kind of top. What's happening here now? Most people square up the face by doing this, throwing the hands at it.
Now, that gets the face square, but I don't have my body open. I don't, I, I'm standing up outta my posture usually when doing that. So I'm not staying in my posture. My body isn't open and I don't have my hands in front from that position. This position here, it's almost impossible to hit the ball with really good quality consist.
So it's never gonna feel that good even if you hit it right on the center of the face. Doesn't feel that great. So what pros are doing, instead of squaring the face up like this, they're actually like this at impact. So that face is really closed. What I'm gonna do from here is I'm gonna get down in my posture, set it up behind the ball, and that would be shooting way off to the left there.
So there's two things I do. I open my hips and I lean my hands in front, and now the face is square. Now I didn't change my wrist angles. The wrist angles are the. I'll just turn my body and turn my arms in like that. So basically I'm taking this wrist angle angle and I'm going like that to get my hands in front and my body open, and that puts me in the pro like position.
So that's the first piece getting used to being in this pro kind of power move from there. So I want you to do 10 or 15 little swings to get comfortable with that first piece. Now when I do. I'm gonna really compress it. You're gonna hear the sound of it is nice and solid when I get into that pro position.
There we go. Really solid shot. Again, it's coming out low and hard. Lots of speed on it. Again, nice little draw there. Now the second piece of that, when you get those hands in front, now you've finally got a chance to be consistent. , your shoulders have to move in a different way too. See, most people, when they're used to kind of throwing the club, they stand up out of their posture, the shoulders stall, and then the arms just kind of throw at it.
That's what makes the the club lose the shuffling. Well, what the great pros are doing is once they get in that shuffling position, they're getting left shoulder low, and then they're feeling like, almost like somebody's on your back and you're gonna turn up and through the. and you're gonna throw somebody off your back.
So if you imagine somebody was kind of leaning on your shoulder there, you get in this good position, I'm gonna throw them into the wall here. So if I just grab my arms, put 'em across my shoulders, I'm gonna get this shoulder low, and then I'm gonna use my legs to rotate and I'm gonna turn through the shot like that.
So really, I'm trying to pull this shoulder up and through as hard as I can that gets that little whip through. Now, finally, I wanna have the extension. He doesn't really do me any good to have the shackling. If it's only for a split second and then I throw it right after that. I want to feel like I smooshed the ball into the face, and as I rotate through, as I'm throwing this person in the wall, I want my hands to extend toward the target.
Imagine it like this. The logo of my left hand is gonna extend toward the target as long as possible. I wanna have my hands kinda waist high here in the follow through logo of the glove toward the target. Same thing with the right hand. I'm gonna have that right hand extend where my hands are waist high, palm of my hand toward the target.
Now, in reality, that's not gonna happen. The club will go ahead and release through there, but if you have that sensation, you're gonna. Oh dang. I have a lot more lag now. I have a lot more shaline and it feels a lot better. So let's put those three things together. I'm gonna feel like I get my wrists turned down like the pros are doing.
I get my shoulder from low to high, throw that person in the wall, and I'm gonna extend on through the shot. And this time I'm gonna do something a little different. I'm barely gonna swing. I'm gonna feel like I make a half swing real slow, real smooth. But I'm gonna compress it like the pros do. And let's see how my shot ends.
So that one didn't feel like I swung very hard at all, nice and smooth. Again, six iron 185 carry 92 miles an hour, a swing speed. That's about what the average pros doing, but I felt like I put out about 20% power on that. To be honest, I didn't even hit that one, that solid. I probably could have got another five to seven yards out of it if it just wasn't a hair thin.
So even when you miss it one, they're still pretty daggone. Good. Some players struggle with this actually because we're used to standing up with the body. The body stops rotating. We stand up out of our posture and we end up throwing the club. That's this kind of flip like we're talking about, instead of the clothes club face lean.
When I lean it, like I talked about, my body opens up. So if I get used to moving this club and the standup flip, and now all of a sudden I open my body, that club is coming way out here over the top, which is not in a good. That insult to injury. Once you start to learn to close the wrist the right way, now I'm over the top and it's a quick hook to the left.
So a lot of times you'll get headed on the right track. Maybe you'll get part of this move down, but you get a bad result and you think, well, that can't be it. Well, the real secret is not only am I gonna square up this club, get my body and hips opening and get the extension like I talked about today, but in order to make those things happen, in order for this picture to really make sense, I have to get this club shouted.
So it's those two pieces together. Using the hands and wrists, the right way to de off the club. That's what all the pros are doing, and also getting that club shallowed out, so it's coming from the inside and then squaring up through contact. That's what all the pros are doing, and that's exactly what I'm gonna teach you to do in a very intuitive way.
I want you to really exaggerate it. We're gonna develop what I call pro problem. And what this means is you're gonna exaggerate it so much that you over compress the golf ball. You make sure that it turns over from right to left every single time. It always starts to the right of the target and then, and then draws back and you know it's gonna happen.
I'll walk you through exactly how to do that in the move. So if you remember a top speed golf, just go ahead and click on the instruction tab, go to the top speed golf system and click on the move. It's only a handful of videos and in just a couple of days from now, you can be hitting some fantastic shots over compress.
Feeling like a million bucks, and you're gonna start to feel like, okay, finally, I'm getting this club from the inside. I'm squaring up the face that I want to, and it's gonna be a blast. So I can't wait to share it with you. Let's jump on over to the move right now, and let's start with just one video today.
You do one video, you're gonna be hooked. All right, I'll see you in the move.
