Mm hmm. Welcome to the Hank Haney Podcast,

1:02

brought to you by Hani University dot Com.

1:04

Go to Hani University dot com if you

1:06

are interested in getting

1:08

a golf lesson from me. That is where

1:11

you find out the information on

1:13

Hani University dot com. You can also

1:16

find some great products on there as well.

1:19

One of my favorite products I'm going to talk about

1:21

this product is the Impact

1:23

Snap. This is a product

1:26

that I have on my website and

1:29

it is one of my favorite

1:31

training aids, especially for people

1:34

that lack in club face control.

1:37

Club Face control is the

1:40

most important thing you can have. I've talked

1:42

about this. It was Scottischefler. People ask

1:44

me all the time about Scottie Scheffler. How

1:46

does he do it?

1:47

You know?

1:47

I mean because he doesn't have the most

1:51

appealing swing to the eye, I'll

1:53

say that, and not that I think his swing

1:55

is bad or

1:58

you know, awful to look

2:01

at. It's rhythmic, it's

2:03

big. He's a big guy. But he

2:05

does fall off balance a lot and

2:08

a lot of times people equate beautiful,

2:12

smooth, slow swings

2:14

with beautiful balance as being a good

2:16

swing. And he proves that the

2:19

most important thing is club fase control. Right

2:21

down there at the bottom. When you hit

2:23

the golf ball, you have to have that

2:25

club face pointed to where you want to

2:27

go. I mean, you need the path and the club face

2:29

pointed somewhere near where you want to go, or

2:31

you're going to have to have some good combination

2:34

that makes up for it. In other words, if you're swinging way

2:36

and out, then you need to have the club face

2:38

closed relative to the path just the perfect

2:40

amount to hook it back to the target.

2:43

And if you're swinging out the end, you've got

2:45

to have the club face open just the right amount

2:47

relative to the target to get the ball to slice

2:49

back into the target. But if you're going

2:52

to hit good, consistent

2:54

shots, you probably need a path that's

2:56

closer to straight through. I need a club

2:59

face that's closer to facing to the

3:01

target. That impact snap helps people

3:03

do that. It helps people people square

3:05

the back of their lead hand to the

3:08

target. This is my history on the impact

3:10

snap back when I had the show

3:12

on Serious Excent, my Hank

3:15

any Goff show. Somebody

3:17

called my show one day and they

3:20

asked me. They said, Hank,

3:23

have you ever heard of the impact snap? I have this impact

3:25

snap thing. I don't know how to use it, and I'm like, no,

3:27

I have no idea what the impact snap

3:29

is. I've never heard of it, never seen it. But

3:32

what I did was I got on line

3:36

and I looked it up and I saw, I want to

3:38

see, let me see what this thing is. And

3:40

it's this device that you swing

3:42

and it's just like a size

3:44

of a grip a little longer, and

3:47

there's a weight that moves in the middle of

3:49

it, and it helps

3:51

you cock your risks the

3:53

right time and release at the right time.

3:56

And then it's got this ball on the coming

3:58

out the end of the little lever

4:01

coming out the end of the grip and

4:03

it's got to hit you in the arm a certain

4:05

way, and when it does, you know, you

4:08

squared your hands properly. I

4:10

didn't know what this thing was. I looked

4:12

online. I saw these people were using it

4:14

online, and I thought, okay, this is a little

4:16

demonstration. All these people used in there. And I thought, well,

4:18

these people swing pretty good. I mean their swing

4:21

those are all pretty good swings. And these don't look like the

4:23

most talented people I've ever seen. These aren't

4:25

all like scratched golfers. These are just

4:27

kind of golfers. And their swings

4:30

really look pretty dune good through impact.

4:33

And I thought, well, they must have been practicing

4:35

with this thing for like a week

4:38

or two. You know, It's what I thought. I mean, nobody's

4:41

improving that fast. I mean, this thing looks pretty good.

4:43

And then I started looking again and

4:45

I thought, you know what, They're all standing in the same

4:48

spot, and they're all wear the same

4:50

clothes. They've been using this

4:52

thing for like five minutes or ten minutes

4:54

or thirty minutes or something. This isn't

4:56

something they've been doing for a week. They

4:58

just started doing this. What an improvement.

5:00

So I got on the phone the Impact

5:03

Snap. I found the number and I sent him an email

5:05

and a fella called me back. Marty

5:07

knew WICKI and Marty's one of the

5:09

best teachers in the in the game of GoF He's

5:12

one teacher of the Year in his section, like multiple

5:14

times. And he has

5:16

this product, and I said, you know, tell

5:19

me about anyway, sent

5:21

me one and I

5:23

started using it and used it with some students

5:26

and and then I thought, you know

5:28

what, this product is really really good. This is

5:30

the problem is is people get that product

5:33

and they don't know they don't know how to use it.

5:36

They don't know how to use it. But if

5:38

you go online and you just see what people

5:41

are doing and you pay attention and you

5:44

watch it, or you know

5:46

what, you can track

5:48

me down if you have this one

5:50

of those impact snaps, or you get one on my website.

5:53

Okay, you get an impact snap on my website

5:56

and you need help

5:58

with knowing how to use

6:00

it exactly. You can

6:02

email me. Now here's an

6:05

offer you can't refuse. You

6:07

can email me at

6:12

Hank Haney five

6:14

five at gmail

6:16

dot com. Okay, you

6:19

email me, now, you track me

6:21

down on Twitter something, Okay, find

6:23

me on Twitter at Hank Haney, send me

6:25

a message on Twitter, Hank, I

6:28

got an impact snap and I'm having trouble figuring

6:30

out exactly how to use it, and

6:33

I will help you out personally with

6:35

that project. Okay, so this

6:37

was a little impact snap spiel here.

6:40

Because the most important thing you can

6:42

do, and I see people improve with

6:44

this so much, The most important

6:46

thing you can do is learn to control the club

6:48

face at impact. You have

6:50

to get the path going somewhat straight

6:53

through, you know, meaning

6:55

a straight shot. You would have the path at

6:57

zero zero on a launch

7:00

monitor, means your path was straight

7:02

through when you hit. And if

7:04

your club face is pointed straight at the target,

7:07

you're going to hit a straight shot. Provided you hit it

7:09

somewhere near the center of the club face, you're

7:11

going to hit a straight shot. That's

7:14

what you have to do. But most people

7:16

who play the game, they

7:18

swing in one direction or the other. They

7:22

swing too much to the right or they swing

7:24

too much to the left. Now, why do people swing

7:26

too much to the right or too much to the left. People

7:29

who swing too much to the

7:31

right, meaning let's say let's say you're

7:33

a right handed golfer, you're swinging too much ind

7:35

doubt. If you swing too much to

7:37

the right, it's because your ball curves too

7:39

much to the left. If you swing

7:41

too much to the left, that means you do

7:43

that because your ball curves too much to the right.

7:46

That's why you have a bad

7:48

path mistake. Now, how

7:50

long does it take somebody to get a bad path mistake?

7:52

Not very long because as soon as

7:55

your got ball is curving one way or another,

7:58

you're gonna eat. You only have two options

8:00

to fix that if you

8:02

don't correct it the right way, which people don't, So

8:05

you only have two options to correct it. Either you have to

8:07

aim or swing in the opposite direction. So

8:09

if your ball's going to the right, you got to either aim or

8:11

swing to the left, or some combination

8:13

of those two things. And if your ball's going

8:16

too much to the left, you got to aim or swing to the right.

8:18

That's why people get in trouble with the

8:20

swing and where they get in trouble with the path of the swing.

8:23

But if they knew how to control the club face

8:25

better, it could get the club face square an impact.

8:27

Now, that's a

8:30

function of your grip. That's why

8:32

the grip is the most important fundamental there is

8:34

in golf and people say, hey, can you check my

8:36

grip and tell me if it's correct, And I'm

8:38

like, a correct grip

8:40

is one that matches your swing. So

8:43

just because I think your grip looks

8:45

nice, it might not be the best grip

8:47

for your swing. There's a little variance there you

8:49

can use. You can go a little stronger,

8:51

you can go a little weaker. You don't have to have it exactly

8:54

like this. You know, people say, look at my grip.

8:56

I'm like, okay, we are we writing a book or

8:59

a we fix in your your golf ball, because

9:01

that's what golf is. You have to fix the goffle.

9:03

Golf is what the ball does. You got to fix

9:05

the golf ball. And if you fix the golf ball,

9:08

you're a better player. It's really really

9:10

that simple. So, so the grip has to

9:12

be good and the risk position has

9:14

to be right. When you hit with the side

9:16

of your hand at impact, you're leaving the face

9:18

open. When you hit with the opposite side

9:20

of your hand, you're you're you're you're closing

9:23

the face. When you hit with the back of your lead hand,

9:25

you're squaring up. But if you don't square

9:28

your hand, then you have to have a different

9:30

grip that will allow the club face

9:32

to get more squares, so you can there's

9:35

a little room for variants here. But

9:37

the bad path mistakes that I

9:39

see, and I like I And all I got

9:41

thinking about this is I had somebody I've got a lesson

9:44

this week. A lot of times I'll

9:46

tell a student, I'll say, send me a video of your

9:48

swing, let me see what we got going on here.

9:51

And he sends me a video of a swing and

9:55

he's making this big inside

9:58

takeaway, which is generally

10:01

the most common mistake that you'll see with

10:03

the amateur golfers. So he's taking this inside

10:06

takeaway and he's making a loop and he's coming down

10:08

steeping from the outside. And

10:11

that's a classic slicer swing.

10:13

Now.

10:13

If you ask people, and

10:15

I like, if I asked this gentleman, and I said,

10:18

like, when you miss, where does the ball

10:20

go? They

10:23

they will reluctantly say that they slice

10:25

it to the right. Nobody likes to admit

10:28

that they slice the golf ball. They just it's

10:30

just like they call it a push, they

10:32

call it a fade. You

10:34

know. They affectionately refer to it as their power.

10:36

Faith.

10:37

There's nothing powerful about a faid compared to a

10:39

draw. A fade

10:41

spins more than a draw in most cases,

10:44

almost all cases. Uh and

10:46

uh and and you're not you're

10:48

not hitting a power fade. You're hitting a slice

10:51

when it's not a push. It's an open

10:53

face slice, that's what it

10:55

is. Uh. You know. So

10:57

so this is this is the mistake

11:00

that most people make and then they

11:02

swing out in like like the video I

11:04

got from this Jill, mean, you're swinging across

11:06

the golf like like I'm like, how

11:09

long have you played? And like how

11:12

many lessons have you had? And

11:15

you're swinging across the ball

11:17

like twelve

11:20

degrees or eleven degrees or

11:22

nine degrees from out to in and

11:25

you've been practicing. What

11:28

this kind of stuff? When I see it, it just it

11:31

just boggles my mind. That's why I have

11:33

the you know, my one shot slice fix

11:36

and fix your slice forever with Performance

11:38

Golf. I mean, this is not this

11:40

is not like that. It's not that hard

11:44

to fix. But you got to fix the club

11:46

face first. That's the thing I learned with with

11:49

John Jacobs early on in my in

11:51

my my teaching. You got

11:53

to fix the club face. You know, people

11:55

try to fix the path first, like, oh,

11:58

you look, you're going out to end. Yeah,

12:00

and why are you going out in? It was curving

12:03

to the right, so you're swinging to the left.

12:06

And if you don't fix that club face, you're

12:08

not gonna You're not gonna fix the path.

12:11

Now, you do need to fix the path,

12:14

and it's part of fixing your slice. But

12:16

if you don't fix the club face, if

12:18

you don't fix the club face, if you don't get that club

12:20

face more square, if you don't fix

12:23

your grip, if you don't fix your risk position, if

12:25

you don't fix your release, if

12:28

you don't fix those things, you're

12:30

never going to fix the path. It's impossible.

12:32

You will never ever ever ever, ever,

12:34

ever, ever ever ever. That's so many evers

12:36

I mean it's forever. You're never gonna

12:39

fix the path if you

12:41

don't fix the club face. So you fix the

12:43

club face versus. How I got on this subject

12:45

today was thinking about that impact

12:47

snap because the impact snap

12:49

is a great tool for learning how to

12:51

square the club face correctly at

12:53

impact and learning to control

12:56

the face of the club. So if

12:58

you're one of the people that or listen

13:01

that knows you have a problem with your club

13:03

face control and and and this is

13:05

this is most people because because golf

13:08

is what the ball does, and the ball does what the club

13:10

says to it. That's it. I mean, that's

13:12

that's the way it works. You've

13:14

got to learn to control that club impact snaps

13:16

one way to do it. So that was my offer.

13:19

Uh, you can get

13:21

one at my website Hanuniversity

13:24

dot com and UH, if you need help

13:26

with it, I will personally help

13:29

you, uh learn

13:31

how to do that correctly. One way

13:33

or another. You'll send me a video or

13:36

maybe on Twitter. You'll send me a video on

13:38

my email that I gave to you. You'll, you'll,

13:41

you'll, I will help you. I

13:43

will help. I am on a mission. I

13:46

am on a mission to fix

13:48

as many bad

13:51

shots as I can in my

13:53

career. And I love to see

13:55

people play better golf, you know what. That's that's

13:57

what I like to see people playing like I.

14:00

And when I get those emails and people say, HENK,

14:02

I broke eighty for the first time, I'm like wow. And

14:04

the guy there to day says, I just want to break ninety.

14:07

And I'm saying, you're going to do better in breaking ninety. Youse

14:09

have never broken ninety. I said, well,

14:11

we're going to break ninety and then you're going

14:14

to be wanting to break eighty, you know. And

14:16

that's the fun of golf, trying to get better,

14:18

trying to improve, and it's not that hard. You

14:21

just have to have some good

14:23

instruction. I mean, that's really what

14:25

it boils down. To analyze

14:29

your ballflight, figure out what

14:31

your mistake is, and

14:34

come up with a plan to fix it. Remember,

14:37

goal without a plan is nothing but a dream.

14:39

Most people are dreaming to play better

14:41

golf. They have no plan to

14:44

play better golf. I can help you with

14:46

that plan. So keep listening to the podcast

14:48

and think

14:51

about maybe that impact

14:53

snap for a training eight. If you have a

14:55

lot of club face issues, it will help you hooking

14:58

or slicing it figure it will help you with both them,
