Hey everyone, Shawn and Savannah. She's back and she's looking really great. This video is so important for you because it's all about you not staying level. Please stop trying to stay level. If you look at how we work as humans on this planet, we're built for PI in action moving up and down in every discipline we do. You really don't wanna miss this show. Sav, if you were gonna walk, let's say you're gonna walk towards me, what's the first thing that needs to happen Do you need to fall Yeah. So if you didn't fall forward and you tried to bring your leg forward, it wouldn't work, would it Yeah. So you literally have to fall forward and come down. Mm-hmm. , and then you're using the weight of your arms to come back up. So somebody walking efficiently. When you're coming out of the theater and you're seeing people in front of you, you're gonna see a lot of bob and heads.
Heads are going up and down. You would never see this I'd be a little concerned. That would be concerning. Yes, it would. It's great for a workout if you want your legs to burn , but you know, you couldn't walk more in two minutes. Mm-hmm. , if you wanna walk for hours, you gotta allow that body to come up and down. It's the same for skating, it's the same for swinging. All that good stuff. Mm-hmm. . And you have become really nicely efficient in your swing when it comes to that.
Mm-hmm. . What matters everybody is that you have a proper task. So Sav today is gonna use the task of sending divot peels and we use, two T drill system, right So you take two tees and you put 'em about four inches apart right in front of the ball and you know, so that the ball is at the back of the first tee and you want to feel like you're sweeping the tees in the direction of the target. So in this case here, Sav, if you get set up, we're gonna go, let's say over this red post T number one, T number two about four inches. Mm-hmm.
. And those are aiming basically, no, Yeah, I had it. No, I want them this way. You want 'em that way Yeah. So that's going between the red post and the black post. Yeah. Okay. So do a practice swing right next to them and pretend you're, you're gonna stay low enough to get through both. Do that again. And if you stay at the surface of the grass, are you gonna hit it solid No.
You want to be at the surface of the ground, right Yeah. Where the tees are more sitting down below the level of the ball. Yeah. So let's see. come to the ball, send both tees out there with some momentum. All right. So imagine you have those tees. Now send a nice divot peel in that direction. Oh baby, how good is that Now watch this in stop action. And you'll notice in the back swing, the first thing that sa does is she comes up, you'll see her head in like against the backdrop here. And then as she's getting up to the top of the back swing, the brain's gotta go get the ground. You'll see her lower beautifully. She's using the ground to collect the grass from here and send the grass out into the direction that she wants to send the ball.
This is critical. If you try to keep the same, level on the back swing, then you're causing your legs to resist the back swing. So what ends up happening if you do a, a practice swing in front of the camera here, like you're going that way, Seth. Okay. So if you try to keep your knees bent the same level into the backswing, do you feel the same amount of power No. Of potential power in that swing No. So go ahead and go to the top and stop. So notice how she comes up because she's up now, she actually can use downward momentum to go load the ground. She's loading the ground with her legs and this is what lowers her back to the ground to go collect the grass. Now here's where you really don't wanna worry. This machine mm-hmm. that you have is Pinocchio without strings. It is an absolute gravity genius. Mm-hmm. . So would you ever sa go down here No. To collect grass doesn't make any sense.
No. So your brain is always seeking the path of least resistance. Yeah. So if you allow it to do the task the way it was meant to, it's going to use the legs to heave up in the back swing to give it some momentum, that downward momentum to get the ground so that we can use the legs to remove the body out of the way so that we can send the grass that way. And in so doing, you come right back up. Yeah. Right. So let's see that again. Effortlessly send grass clippings in that direction. Awesome. Beautiful divot, excellent contact with the ball. Send those clippings out there.
Yeah. Wow. And you even got a little bit of a recoil on it. Yeah. See that's the other thing too. I I don't want you to worry about that. Mm-hmm. , Jack Nicholas in his prime. Mm-hmm. , you would see him go and have this beautiful squat and clear when that leg is using the ground to get him out of the way, it would actually push him up and away.
Yeah. Pushing up and away is what gives you that release and anchors that release and then yeah, he would fall back. Okay. Right Yeah. So if you look at walking and cutting grass, something you've become really good at. Mm-hmm. . So show me you walking and cutting grass and sending grass clippings to target next row. Send the grass. Send the grass. Fantastic. So as you're walking notice, look at this last two DITs.
Yeah. Perfect thickness, right Perfect depth and nice length. Yeah. So you are sending the grass clippings to the target, but if you look at that and stop action, you'll notice that in order for her to take a step, she's gotta come off. Now that we've taken the weight off of it, we can take that step. Then she comes back down, collects the divot, sends it out, and this leg is extending. So both legs extend up. Yep. Unaids the back foot. And now you can take a step to go back into your backs swinging with, So the walking drill, I encourage you, you'll see a video called, best way to Shift Weight, Take a Walk, Sean Clement, and we, we show you this walking drill, which is really gonna help you deliver proper timing and proper weight shift in the swing, but also proper levels.
Yeah. You're gonna start there and you can already tell she'll she, the, the width of the club head is her rose that she's cutting and she's taking those rows. So you notice how we have the width of a club head in between each ball here. So it makes the length of your step proper, Nicely demonstrated. The last one was a little thick, it was just getting a little e right So sometimes the, when you're a little bit off in the contact, it turns in your hands and it tends to derail you. Yeah. But you did brilliantly on that. Yeah. So stop trying to stay level, get yourself a proper task. Send grass clippings to your target with freedom. As long as you have a specific direction to send those grass clippings and you're sending them out toward the target, let the brain take care of doing the rest for you.
Nice job, Seth. Thank you.
