Keep the club in the happy zone through the downswing

The coach offers a downswing checkpoint: imagine a wall or line where you stand over the ball, with a 'happy zone' on one side and a 'death zone' on the other. From the top of the backswing all the way down to where the club is parallel with the ground, keep the club head in the happy zone rather than letting it drift into the death zone. He calls staying in the happy zone 'gold' and says it lets you play great golf.
