Isolate The : A 555 Golf Drill For You

A 555 Golf Drill For YOU

We all know that ‘Breaking A Big Seemingly Insurmountable Problem Into Smaller Bite-Size Problems’ is a sensible ‘Problem Solving Methodology’. Golf abides and thrives by this approach!

Think about making a ‘Golf Swing’ with two (2) Lever Assemblies … with two (2) hands. A really effective simplification is to make ‘One Handed Swings’ or, as your 555 Team calls it, to ‘Isolate The Parts’. Use ‘One Lever’ to amplify the true action of that lever!

Cut to the chase?

Leave your ‘Target or Swinging Lever Assembly’ on the bench for now! “Time For A Feel!” Grab a short iron and make swings with this tool!

Let’s make ‘Brace or Hitting Handed Swings’. By reducing the variables, we will see and feel the differences. Pay particular attention to what the ‘Lower Body Machine’ (LBM) is doing in the Back & Up and Down & Out Swings.

The Brace Hand winds up the ‘LBM’ (see ‘The Balsa Airplane Concept’) The Tip Of The Propeller actually winds up the ‘Big Rubber Band’. This is thus ‘From The Top Down’ and ‘From The Outside-In’.

Now, logically, the ‘LBM’ leads the ‘Front Swing’ parade making the ‘Upper Body Machine’ (‘Lever Assemblies’) to follow in a subservient manner. The ‘Down & Out Swing’ is ‘From The Inside-Out’ and ‘From The Ground Up’. The Brace Hand ‘LEADS’ in the Back & Up Swing and ‘LAGS’ in the ‘Down & Out Swing. Knowing that you are now making Short Iron Swings, you are feeling this truth and reality.

It is ‘Brace Toe Pressure’ and ‘Brace Foot Pre-Load’ that enables your ‘Brace Leg Drive’ and, thus your ‘LEAD & LAG Pressure’. The Master Rock or Key Stone in an arch golf bridge is your ‘Brace Leg Drive’ or ‘Pivot Engine’. This ‘Energy Source’ delivers and releases the Golf Clubhead and Golf Ball, Down The Line to the Pre-Selected Target’. (see ‘ALSDR – The Power Line Delivery Sequence’)

By ‘Isolating The Parts’ you can ‘Feel’ the ‘Key Stone Brace Leg Drive Move’. Do three groups of 5 Tick Tocks Repetitions. You shall get smarter every single swing! When you add back your Target Lever, keep being ‘Feel & Function Aware’. Well done!
