Del Warren talks about what drill Mabel is doing to get 1 more hit a game to be more competitive. Mabel is a Sr at Vanderbilt and a multi time member of Team USA
Great video! Reminds me a lot of the towel drill. Tuck it in your armpit and keep it from falling out during the swing. Works well to teach the proper golf swing too for people who struggle with slicing the ball.
Accuracy and getting my ball to drive through the pins are the two exact things I worked on, today, while practicing. This tip came after my practice session, but gives me some good things to work on when I go back out in a couple of days. Great video!
@@KegelTrainingCenter It seemed to work great! In my next practice session, my average went up 30 pins over the previous practice day. MUCH better carry, resulting in more strikes per game. Stringing together some strikes helped a lot, too! The previous practice, I was averaging in the 150s (ugh). The practice after watching this video saw me consistently in the 180s (improvement... now, I just need to be more consistent in hitting my target, every time). This is a video I will definitely reference a lot, going forward.
Do you have to actively tuck the arm to the body in the downswing, or is it just a result of good body positioning and a straight swing plane? I’ve been struggling to understand how to do this correctly, but have noticed all the top players do it. Thanks
Yes, the feeling is the arm will rub against the body and because this is a new feeling, you have to do it very slowly in a mirror manually at first without a ball, and then add the swinging slide in the final line drill to connect the two. I would love to talk to you more about it. Email me at del.warren@kegel.net or call the TC: 863-734-0200
What do you mean when you say "having her right foot too open causes her right shoulder to go around" at approximately 3:15? Also is Mabel using a lighter weight ball? If so, do you recommend using a lighter ball to do these drills?
Great question. Actually, it's both opening of the fourth step right foot. In this case, if that points to the right it's gonna tend to affect the angle of the left foot. So it's really both. If the right foot is open on the pivot step, it will make the hips open to the target line. The left foot is then forced to mimic the angle of the previous step. Only if the slide is long enough, does the body have a chance to realign the left foot. So in essence, if you keep the right foot straight and correct, the left foot will have a tendency to do the same
I am confused by your comment that Mable is using her right foot too open at times in the past. She uses only her left foot in this one-step drill. So, do you mean her slide foot is too open? Or, do you mean her power step foot is sometimes too open when she bowls more than just the one-step drill?
@@KegelTrainingCenter Thanks Dell. I worked on the alignment of my power step today and the results were great. I have been having a problem with my shoulder pulling the ball instead of using a swing from my shoulder. This is helping to keep that shoulder quiet.
