Hi everybody and welcome I’m coach Carolyn LEP certified instructor and a professional former Tour player and today we’re going to talk about how to get and stay unstuck so getting stuck is a very common term and also unfortunately very common phenomenon when we were swing the golf club and I

Want to explain to you a couple of things number one why it happens number two what you can do to get rid of it and number three some drills that help you maintain that unstuck swing that we all want to have so let’s jump into it so

Let’s jump into why you’re getting stuck in the first place where does it all start and I’m really big on cause and effect essentially the root cause of something happening later on in the golf swing because everything that you do in the golf swing has a reaction to it it’s

An action and reaction sport um because there’s a lot of gravity involved because there’s a lot of forces at play so we want to make sure that we’re giving ourselves the best chance in our setup and in the start of the golf swing to actually not have to compensate later

On and to not get ourselves into the woods or stuck in the woods if you want to refer to it like that because we’re definitely getting stuck sometimes so essentially why it happens is a lot of people have a not so great takeaway and if you’re already getting

Behind yourself in the takeaway and when I say behind it’s that you kind of get your club inside so this is the 9:00 position right here if you looked from down the line here my club head is actually covering my hands and I want you to pay attention so this is this is

A pretty neutral position which a lot of people would be okay to be at like a lot of amateurs if they get at the 9:00 position in the back swing down the line if they get their clubit to cover their hands I’m pretty happy with that ideally

If you look at the tour players right here they’ll be outside the club head will be outside their hands it won’t be covering them but again anywhere from here to here I’m okay with for my students and for an average amateur golfer what you do not

Want to be is here anything that is behind your hands this way is death that is death to contact death to golfer that is not not where you want to go this is illegal it is jail you’re putting yourself in jail when you’re back here so let’s stay out of jail guys

This is make it a hashtag let’s stay out of jail I mean this kind of applies to everyday life so I’d hope we can manage but at least let’s manage it in the golf swing so when you’re taking it back again to that 9:00 position want to make sure that you’re

Either covering your hands with your Club face or that your Club fa is outside your hands we’re not here if you go in here and this is again jail we’re in jail and that’s why you get stuck you stuck in jail you are already flat you can’t really turn well and then what

Happens you’re behind yourself you’re low most likely and very shallow and flat in your back swing and you’re also very lifty because there isn’t really much rotation you’re going to have to lift to get the club up because if you’re down here and you’re just rotating your Club stays low but

Everybody knows you got to get up here somewhere so what do I have to do I have to lift but this has nothing to do with actual shoulder rotation which is the issue right so let’s say you’re you’re here somewhere you’ve lifted your club because everybody kind of knows that you

Should be up further in that top position now naturally the golfer wants to go to the Target right you want to hit the ball the ball’s down there your body knows this so it starts to rotate so now your chest and upper body starting to rotate hard but your club’s

Trapped behind you because you never gave it a chance you never had the club in front of you so now you’re stuck what happens is your face is wide open your body is way ahead of your lower body way ahead of your arms way ahead of your

Your wrists and your Club face and then your body has to actually stall and stop and then you’re starting to flip right so that’s the problem then you’re starting to flip and then you’re stuck to flip and that is a lot of inconsistency because you cannot time

That consistently well not even a tour player can right so this is a very common thing that happens to even good players when they’re out of sync some and some people especially that have a tendency for a little bit of a shallower swing this is a tough one so to stay out

Of jail we want to make sure that that club face at that 8 to 9:00 position is outside of our hands are covering it because that will actually allow us to have a much steeper shoulder turn have that and when I say steeper shoulder turn this is what I’m referring to not

Flat steeper and then we have a lot of space here see all that space I have here which is exactly what we need to drop our hands down and stay much more in front of the body we always want want to have our chest and the front like the

Chest and our club really kind of not opposite each other there’s obviously a lag but we do not want the chest and the club to be just disconnected we want to make sure that this triangle here that was a square this triangle not this triangle is actually maintained

Especially in pitching and a short game and the longer swing and in the driver there’s a little bit more lag and difference but that we’re able to have that nice shoulder turn and then drop our hands down keep them in front of our our body and being able to cover and

Actually drive towards the Target and not be stuck behind ourselves so that’s essentially how you stay out of jail and it’s funny that something that happens just before impact is actually caused by something that happened just after the takeaway so make sure you pay attention to that takeaway um my good friend David

Le just brought out another training aid it’s called straightaway if you want to get it and if you want to buy it it’s in the link below so make sure you get yourself one it’s a great training aid to get your takeaway correct to do exactly as I described so check it out

It’s one of the best ones out there and I really really enjoy it I have it myself so I work on it you know on a weekly basis and I’m not a huge training a person but that one I’m telling you it’s absolutely worth it here’s a good

Drill for you to make sure that you can stay unstuck and that you getting a good takeaway I just like to put my grip into my belly button here and then rotate with my belly button so this connection between your belly button and your chest and your Club is really important so now

You’ve rotated and see where that puts my club face it puts it outside my hands and then all you have to do is hinge and rotate your shoulders up and now you’re perfect you’re not in jail you’re not down here this will put any golfer back

On plane again you grab your Club you grip down on it right here and then you actually turn back with your belly button have that club face outside your hands hinge turn go and that same feeling we take into our full swing so I hope you enjoyed this little session on

  1. Very timely for me. I was hitting some balls today and got into the same exact situation. I’ll definitely try the drill next time out.

  2. That was great especially for my mate im trying to show him in a simple fashion as he's always in jail lol and sometimes myself aswell is easy to get sloppy. Thks🙏🏼👍🏼

  3. Just a quick question. Is it better to hinge with a short chip or best to keep arms straight in the triangle?? I know it depends on situation but just a short shot to green ?
