Rehearse the pump drill pre-impact position
The pump drill has you swing up to the top and rehearse getting back down to a specific pre-impact position. Checkpoints for that position: the butt end of the club points to the middle of the lead knee, the shaft is parallel to (as low as) the knees, and the clubhead is levered up above and behind the handle. The speaker notes the low-handle position feels weird because most people would expect the handle to be about hip high.
