Full Swing · Feel

Maintain the away-from-body feel through the swing

The coach uses a toucan analogy for the grip: keep the fingertips away from the body, rotate the feel back in the backswing, and maintain it through the downswing. He then returns it to parallel after impact.

Try it

  1. you gotta keep him out here
  2. push him away
  3. as i go back in the swing like i'm trying to keep him pushed
  4. as he comes down it's like you're gonna maintain him back
  5. post-impact back to parallel you're just gonna like let him go

Why this context matters

The coach uses a toucan/baby-bird analogy to describe the grip-pressure feel.
