Golf Pro Lesson Be a Solid Ball Striker!
http://www.shawnclementgolf.com Shawn Clement, Director of the Richmond Hill Golf Learning Centre in Toronto and one of the top 25 CPGA Teachers as rated by Score Golf Magazine, uses our new teaching aid, Scully, to show how the human body is so well equipped to make a golf swing motion; once the motion produces a steady arc, then ball striking is a snap!

Hey David; sorry …
Hey David; sorry for missing this one; the key here is that you are not focused on the target; see my latest videos on this subject called “golf pro lesson tilted twirl”, “golf pro lesson get more power and club speed” and “golf pro lesson head bobbing”; the video that gets you the main focus that make all these work is “golf pro lesson the insanity of golf” Shawn
Shawn,
With the …
Shawn,
With the swing sequence in other videos you discuss a ‘squat’ or movement to the left just before the downswing. Would that not have an impact on the arc line of the club in relation to the position of the ball at address?
I am finding that I am not able to get a consistent arc, hitting the ground before the ball or taking very large divots.
Thanks,
David.
Great question!
…
Great question!
Holding the lag is gravity’s job, more precisely centrifugal force; the key here is to FOCUS ON SENDING THE WHIP OF THE SWING TO THE TARGET!! See “golf pro lesson how to repeat your practice swing” and “Golf Pro lesson put some snap in your swing” Make sure that your grip is bullet proof!!! I have several videos on the grip for a reason!

Sean i watched your …
Sean i watched your Contact and Spin video and you said that as you planted on your left in the downswing your centre moved to the left and this is what creates ball turf, or hands leading the downswing?
Also a question of lag, as you let the arms fall do you use muscle power to hold the lag till the hands reach the ball or is it natural.
Great techer!!! tx,
PS i have your dvd WHICH IS GR8
Head behind the …
Head behind the ball and sternum feels right up against the back of the ball at address and over the ball through impact; see “golf pro lesson braced tilt part 2″
Thanks for the question!

so u should be centred over the golf ball, with your head and sternim over ball?

Getting there!
I have a follow up to this video called “golf pro lesson tilted spiral” part 3; Shawn
So, if I play the …
So, if I play the ball in the middle of my stance, and swing the club on the arc, with no manipulation of club face at address (face is square to arc) and everything else being correct (tilt, stance,etc) I will basically hit the ball straight.
Play the ball back slightly => produces slight draw.
Play the ball way back => produces push / slice
Play the ball slightly forward => produces slight fade
Play the ball very forward => produces major fade or a hook.
Am I on the right track?
Wonderful question! …
Wonderful question! Center of the chest yes and a center that is braced against the left side too! Thanks, Shawn
Where ( …
Where (approximately) is the “top” of the arc in relation to the body for a right-handed player?
Is it the center of the chest?
Or slightly left of the center of the chest b/c of turning on the left leg?

Hey Isabelfuriati!
I have a nice video on this called “golf pro lesson bridging flat wrist with hinged wrists” as well as “Golf Pro lesson arm motion”; let me know how you do! Shawn

Shawn like to thank you, I was a 12hdc could not practice,got to 17hdc, & my way down started with your lessons. will you address the wrist accion as it passes center all the way up, my rigth elbow hurts. you’r the best thanks
Great insight! The …
Great insight! The thing is that the club head is way wider with the center of gravity farther back in the head so this changes things quite a bit; you want the center of the club in the center of the stance and the ball forward of this for a ball on the ground; then as the ball is teed up, the higher it gets the farther forward you play it and then you will start needing to aim more right as you will start to pull it; Great comment! Shawn
Shawn, I’m hitting …
Shawn, I’m hitting well all of the clubs that are designed to hit the ball off the ground (3w – SW). But I’m having a hard time figuring out the driver and how it relates to the arc/swing concept.
Here is what doesn’t make sense. With driver you catch the ball on the way up and it is set up off the left heel. With the ball forward and the catching it on upswing, isn’t that point on the arc where the club starts coming back towards your body? So you will either wipe across the ball or pull it?
thank you! i shot …
thank you! i shot the best round of my life yesterday of my 5 month golf career. especially my approach shots. i have also been wondering about the around the green shots. such as pitching, chiping, floping, ect. do you have any videos or tips?
Have a look at the …
Have a look at the following 2 videos:
-Golf pro lesson contact and spin
-Golf Pro lesson compress through the ball
Thanks for the comment! Shawn
Shawn – i have a …
Shawn – i have a problem making good contact with my irons. i rarely brush the ground and usually get all ball. are there any drills to help you get good contact on your irons? by the way im young and short and i have clubs that are small on me and i really cant afford new ones.
Excellent!!!
Excellent!!!
There are 3 things …
There are 3 things for toe shots; one is too far from the ball (Golf Pro Lesson Distance to ball part 1 and 2) next is you are standing up and loosing spine angle in the backswing which pulls the arms closer to you (Golf pro lesson don’t keep your head down part 1 and 2) and last, which should not be the case because it would send the ball left is your head is moving forward or you are swaying in the backswing which would also pull you farther from the ball; see also “Hogan power drill”…
hi shawn,
i …
hi shawn,
i have been viewing alot of your videos, they have been of great help…my consistancy has certainly improved. But it was only recently that i hav been hitting most of my shots straight but on the toe of the club, and i hav suddenly lost my consistancy and i dont know how to fix this.
do you have any drills or pointers which i can use to prevent these toed shots?
Thanks for your …
Thanks for your reply Shawn!
Working hard to compete in my local amateur tournaments.
Hopefully I’ll be able to represent your teachings in a winning way!
Those are serious …
Those are serious stats for anyone; have you seen the greens in regulation stats for the tour? I would say Moe had no issues with this but you are definitely talking tour quality here;
I just take one shot at a time…:) Shawn
I would do the …
I would do the perpetual motion drill for at least 6 or 7 swings in a row with the wedge after the driver to re-tune your central nervous system to the new length; then you should be fine!
Shawn
Shawn,
Been …
Shawn,
Been watching and practising your teachings at the range.
Irons coming along; working on woods these days – that 3 wood is harder to ‘skip’ than I thought.
Question on hitting irons after swinging woods/driver for a while…
I’d say my irons are not bad, but I’ve sliced, thinned, even shanked a wedge right after my driver session.
Like to hear you thoughts if any, and any tips (mentally/physically) so that I don’t think twice pulling out a wedge after a big drive.
Shawn, question for …
Shawn, question for you.
How difficult is it to acquire this accuracy with your irons:
6 iron: 170 yards normal distance, with deviations +5 yards and -5 yards in 90% of all cases.
And sideways deviations from up to 7,5 yards left and 7,5 yards right.
Which means that for a normal shot, from outside 170 yards to the middle of a green, you would hit it 90% of the time, atleast somewhere on it.
This is my goal, how difficult is it? Whats your deviations?
