This explanation in conjunction with your video 'Stop rushing your downswing ' is like the light in the confusion. Clarity at last - sincere thanks.

Mr. Ryan, I just wanna say thank you man. I am all self taught, no lessons. Was down to a 7 handicap at one point but had no idea what I was doing to be that low. For the last 3 months I've been at about a 13-15 because I went away from what gave me success. The problem was I didn't realize that this idea shown in the video is exactly what was bringing me that success. The waterski example is exactly what I'm trying to imitate but in my mind I didn't consciously understand. "Slow is smooth, smooth is fast" has never fit an instruction better than this one.

Excellent demonstration & explanation recognizing that feet, legs, hips & torso need to be synchronized to unravel properly to achieve shaft lean / compressed ball strike. Reprise: Appreciate your calm patience during message delivery. Thank You……..

I’ve been trying this swing move of JR for a couple weeks, my irons strikes have been better but I’ve been hitting my driver off the toe. Do you think the cause is a lack of body rotation with the longer club?<br>Thanks Chris. 😃👍

I've always had a problem with the way that you set up with zero shaft lean (handle and head directly in the middle) because it seems like you'd scoop and hit up with irons and hybrids instead of down on them. Can you explain that?

This comes from Sean Foley<br>He references this analogy a lot

The problem I have with this drill is, I was always taught to move your hips first not your arms in the downswing so it’s counterintuitive to every professional golf swing you see
