Oh yeah   it is uncanny how many of you out there are trying to hold it like a bird  or trying not to get the toothpaste out of the tube and as an example Sav one of  the things that you do to cross Trin for long drive is tennis yeah now I’m going 

To give you my prize High School tennis rack it’s an Owen Davidson there’s a  serial number on it so be careful okay okay so if you were doing a nice power  backand back down Moo’s throat uh are you guys competitive a little bit uh yes 

All right a lot of bit so if you were doing a power forehand back to the  camera right now how firmly would you hold it very firm so very firm power  backhand very firm very firm especially in that lead hand right yeah so you’re 

Lead hand dominant and that lead hand is especially clamped on isn’t it yeah  because my wrists are so small that if I were to not hold it firmly I would hurt  myself exactly especially with you know a return coming from somebody like moo 

Right how’s how’s this serve actually he’s getting pretty good all right I’ve  taught him a bit so if we’re doing a nice power forehand or backhand down the  line yeah and you were receiving a power forehand or backhand yeah there’s no way 

That you could return that with a light grip pressure no no chance the only time  light grip pressure is proper in tennis is if you need to deaden the impact for  for a little cut shot yeah to get Moo to run a little bit yeah a little volley a 

Little volley little cut spin volley on the other side of the net right he’s  done that to me a couple of times so if you looked that oh moo come on how could  you man get me running around the court I’m like wow I I haven’t done that in a 

While so watch Sav as she’s hitting her driver right now in her speed session  this one was about 114 mil hour yeah so the phase that they’ve been in uh  they’ve been lifting heavy weights to build up strength yeah now in your 

Strength part of the program for speed training your speed actually goes down M  right because you’re building up your strength yeah and now you just started  doing some some more explosive power phase power phase and now the speed 

Should start creeping back up y so now you’re at 114 mph yeah man I pumped that  out there 112 I thought that was pretty good 114 is really really good yeah and  I need the strong grip pressure for ball Grip pressure for your golf swing 

Speed because I’m smaller compared to like height-wise smaller compared to the  other ladies so I have to compensate yes you very efficient with my you got to  get every ounce out of that body so while I was doing that 220 yard drive 

Versus carry versus my 313 yard I did one 320 yesterday my  personal best here’s the Shawn demonstrates the his   personal best ball speed! drive oh s this should be  good look at that look at that carry jeez come on  that’s got to be 170 [Music] 

Yes yes oh that’s nice Dr that’s a nice  Dr good job baby I freaking stayed with him moo yeah  yeah stay with thanks to thanks to all the work you guys been doing I’ve been  watching you and I’m going okay this is what they do when they do a speed 

Session I got to stick with it stick with it yeah break through that ceiling  so you’ve got this very light grip pressure that tells the brain that hey  we we got to be careful you got to back off so you can’t actually use your 

Kinetic chain you’ve actually cancelled your kinetic chain it puts you in like a  straight defensive mode exactly because that was a that’s a great term yeah  because your body can tell right away whether or not you’re going to be able 

To optimize your swing based on your setup exactly so when you set up and I  and this is what I learned from my left-handed swing because my dominant  side is my right side and I noticed that my lead hand was much more strong was 

Was more applied to the club and I did the same thing with my right-handed  swing I clamp down so notice where we’re clamping down not here you’re not going  to get any pressure from here yeah this is where you’re going to clamp down on 

It so imagine if you were you know on a bicycle  you’d be clamping down or if you were holding a hammer or a baseball bat you  would this is how you would take the baseball bat you don’t hold the baseball 

Bat like this this is this you wouldn’t even do a bunt with that yeah so now  that you’re clamped on the club and you mean  business now the brain is saying hey I I you know it’s like it’s powering up the 

Kinetic chain yeah so now you’re saying okay I’m going to use the weight of my  arm Club unit mhm the weight combined How to swing with the arm-club unit  with the tone is going to give me the compression this is a varable 

Compression chamber and that’s what’s going to compress the ball now when you  compress the ball with the latest technology you compress that mantle  that’s when the spin comes down but if you go lightly through it and you don’t  compress it you actually get too much spin yeah because it’s designed to to go 

That way so it’s designed to spin more with the wedges right mhm now stay with  us right now I’m going to show you why you can’t get spin on your wedges if  you’re trying to hold it like a bird or a tube of toothpaste yeah then how are 

You going to get a divot let alone spin on the ball stay tuned this one’s really  good all right everybody so we got a How grip pressure affects the backspin you   produce with your wedges in your golf swing nice little par three here on a golf 

Course it’s uh pretty level right just slightly elevated at about 100 yards and  um if I’m going to have a soft like a bird grip pressure I can’t get my lob  wedge there anymore I can’t even get a sandwich there I’m going to have to use 

A pitching wedge so now I’ve got a pitching wedge which typically should  have some decent spin so I’m holding it like a  bird I’m approaching my ball I’m thinking man I can’t take a divot either  so this has got to be uh very soft along the  ground and you 

Notice it has a little bit of grab but not too much we look at the backspin on  that it’s about 7,000 RPM uh my height was okay my carry was  115 now if I take my lob wedge so I got my 58 degree wedge right here I’m going 

To play a little draw next now I’m clamped down with that lead arm and it  really feels like I can use my kinetic chain now to come through there so I’m  going to sling through with my kinetic chain and look at the spin on  that so now my back spins up to 10,600 

RPM and I now have control over this golf ball so even for your half pitch  shots if you’re doing 50 yard pitch shots it’s going to be very much the  same way so let’s watch what happens with a 50- yard shot so here we are at  50 yards 

Soft bird grip notice how it’s got a little  release on that my spin was 5,000 RPM so we’re going to clamp  down and look at that see that beautiful little check and back up and that was  7700 RPM so that’s 2500 more 

RPM firm versus salt soft now of course there’s a time to be soft if I’ve got a  delicate chip down the slope and I need need to land it you know soft like a  butterfly with sore feet then I’m going to release that grip so firm grip 

Pressure has a very very strong voice in this game you don’t want to mess with  that now for those of you who feel that your grip pressure isn’t or could be  stronger moo has some incredible exercises for you to do right by your TV 

Set that is really going to help strengthen your grip pressure you get  better grip pressure you’re going to get more ball speed ball speed equals more  distance and who doesn’t want that stay with us this is important so before we  PROMO get to our last segment where we’re 

Going to discover on how to improve your grip pressure please subscribe to our  Channel I know you appreciated the information you’ve gotten so far and to  get much more please go to our premium channel at wisdom andolf premium.com and  for moo speed training sessions which are really gaining a lot of popularity 

Here at the club you want to go to wisdom andm movement.com check out the  link below don’t miss this opportunity and really get your game into shape this  year all the best now this man Shawn and Mu talk about   how to improve grip strength responsible for my personal best 

Yesterday right they walk in and they hear the commotion going on between  Renee and I who’s one of his clients and Renee had his person another  personal V yesterday so things are going really well over here at wisdom and golf 

And so I know I’ve always had really good grip pressure move but I’ve I’ve  had some high school friends that you know you shake their hands and it’s like  shaking a dead fish and you could sense that there’s some strength missing in 

Their hands that’s right and I know many of you guys could really use some extra  grip pressure yeah and what are some easy exercise that you can do at the  gymm OR at home to help with that so gym um exercise you can do at home could be 

Getting a bucket and filling it up with uh rice Y and then what you do is you  put your hands and you’re just working outwards and inwards so you dip your  hand into the bucket submerge it in the rice that’s right yeah and then you open 

And close your hand so you can do two ways you can go outside so you’re going  outward outward and then you can go inward right so you both you work both  sides of the muscle so you have antagon antagonis muscles and and agus muscles 

Right so they’re opposite of each other and this will help you kind of fine-tune  the grip pressure that makes those forearms burn I remember that exercise  we did that like a a couple of years back during Co we were talking about 

That and I couldn’t believe how fast my forearm started to burn yeah it’s it’s  huge so another one you can do with equipment if you have if you have some  at your home uh you can do farmers carry uh with either Kettle bill or dumbbell 

Heyy I married the farmer’s daughter so yeah that that will  definitely help you so what what you would do is use a kettle bell kettle  bell and a dumb or a dumbbell on both sides decent amount of weight and then 

You’ll find uh a pathway in either in your home or at the gym if you have you  know during your workouts you can add this you can go about 30 m back and  forth and you’ll find over time that your grip pressure is being challenged  so that farmer carrying the milk buckets 

Or the water buckets yeah man that farmer had Popeye forearms yeah you also  improve your finger strength too right that’s it yeah so that’ll that’s huge  for golf sing No Doubt and you know there like there’s some squeezing uh 

Balls that you can get right that’s true yeah there’s there’s tools that you can  definitely work with keep keep something in your golf bag or in the car you know  while you’re driving your car you could you could squeeze one of those gol one 

One of those balls that’s right yeah exactly fantastic so there you have it  grip pressure massively important for ball speed and for for distance for spin  that’s right and for the overall health of your golf game that’s right yeah for  sure thank you bud my pleasure appreciate it no problem

  1. Ok, I hate to change the subject from this video; but I know you can drive the ball very far; but I am hearing you are hitting a pitching wedge at 100 yards. This has been a wonder of mine on my own distances. I hit my pitching wedge 130 yds, my 5 iron about 190-195 yds. But my driver is only around 240-260 yards. Sooooo…….any ideas why I don't hit my driver further? Sorry again to bother you, but I love your videos and send them to everyone i know.

  2. Big fan of Shawn Clement's ideas, but this one is contrary to so many teachings I've received. One is that a firm grip increases the tension in your arms, which in turn retards your clubhead speed. Another is that callouses on your hand indicate you're gripping the club too hard. Ben Hogan, I've been told, had some of the softest hands in golf. Hard to achieve that with firm, tight grips. Still, I'll experiment with this indoors, and see what happens.

  3. Shawn, a lot of what you say is great, but your first example here was poor. Regardless of grip, you just swung far faster on drive 2 than 1. You may of course argue that you cant swing that fast with tooooo light a grip, but i think you over egged the custard here

  4. Thanks. I thought if you gripped it too tight your forearms etc would be too tense?

  5. Shawn have you ever gripped the snot out of your putter? I am telling you it makes a huge difference. The ball rolls pure
