00:00When it comes to gadgets, I'm not into a huge amount of tech, but the orange whip is a fantastic
00:09tool to give the golfer a lovely feeling of a swing. So if anyone struggles with using
00:14their arms too much, picking the club up, not rotating, and especially the lack of follow
00:20through, this is the tool for you. So all you do is hover it above the ground, holding
00:23it normally, nice and light with the hands, and just gently start getting a bit of momentum
00:28back and through and back and through. And what you'll notice is it really drags you
00:32through, so it drags your body through and gives you that lovely, lovely finished position
00:37that we all seek. When you pick the orange whip up, the first thing you feel is that
00:40it's unstable, so it immediately puts the golfer in a more athletic position with the
00:44weight on the balls of the feet. And that enables us then to just swing the club around
00:49the body, back and through, and really, really enjoying a lovely big follow through. It'll
00:56also make sure that you're going up and down on a pretty good line, so it's quite hard
01:02to swing it too much on the inside or take it out too much on the outside. You feel it,
01:08it feels very awkward when you do any of those things. So it'll help you to keep that club,
01:12or the whip in this case, on plane, back and through.
