For those who are in the ABS classes the quotes from above should be highlighted . We must understand Lag and Twomasters players who have won and played on tour . When one makes changes something else is affected like the players who work on there backswings all day at the range then there post impact is weak! This is why mod 1 is important so mod 2 and 3 will work and mod 3 will only be as good as mod 1! To get superslotted alot of things must take place and can’t wait til Lag lets us in on some of the ideas and training that got him there.A great thing about the forum is we can share ideas of how to get better.
thanks for the insights. it doesn’t seem possible to the rest of us that you would shank, skull, or even top a golf ball, but how do you internally respond to one of these types of shots when you are in the process of allowing changes to pervade? for example, do you ignore it and proceed trusting thatyour intentions are correct; do you reanalyze your intentions and trying something slightly different, etc.?
as an amateur who doesn’t fully understand the golf swing, it is sometimes difficult to differentiate between a poor strike due to an intention that is incorrect (like forcing a pitch elbow, for example) and a poor strike that is due to an appropriate intention that is not yet fully accepted (like the intention of maximum forearm rotation). one of the things that is so important about learning here at ABS is that, as an amateur, you can trust 100% that you are getting the appropriate intentions from people who have changed their swings using those same intentions. i often find that if i get off track and start experimenting or improvising on intentions, i get into this gray zone of not knowing whether poor strikes are due to poor intentions or not yet fully integrated good intentions. it’s sort of like a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing…
This is one of the reasons I am not big on the idea of writing a book. I did start… and got quite a bit through it… but after teaching here for a couple years… it’s really shocking how poorly most students apply what I put forward. A module video, several supplementary videos to hammer home the key points students seem to miss on the main video and I quickly realized that even if the student understands what they have to do… they still miss key points. So this is why working with each student individually is so vital. I don’t remember any student having perfectly nailed module #1 without me having to make some kind of adjustment.
Usually it is several adjustments to be made… sometimes more. I don’t mind the adjustments… but it just shows me how important real support actually is.
Super Slotting will be no different. I can already anticipate what is going to happen. So I am really going to hammer home a few key things and I will still expect to have to adjust students.
Everyone is different. ABS is not cookie cutter. I look closely at each student, their body, athletic ability and make personal assessments constantly. It’s a vital part of teaching.
My favourite thread… bump…
Here some visuals why I do it…
The body don´t have to compensate thru impact…
And I can plane the shaft back to the original plane…
Chris
Thanks for sharing Chris…
Was this a somewhat natural move for you or did you work on this in a more deliberate way?

More natural and I did it from the beginning - I don´t do it - it happens , I tried many times to swing more
“on plane” and to quit with my doubleshift with downloop , what a disaster…
I have to learn to understand it and use it to my advantage.
Maybe my intend did it… my Heroes Hogan, Knudson, even Sergio all have this handpath and plane
the club to the original shaftplane…
There is some magic to super slotting… even I am still miles away to master it…
Chris
Lag,
are there any plans for when you’ll actually release a module for superslotting, or do you still need to test it on yourself for a few more months?
Chris,
Good posting! I saw in one of your other vids you were swinging a graphite shafted modern driver. You also mentioned that you swing heavy clubs…Curious, did you add weight to that driver?
DOUG SANDERS
Wow. That Doug Sanders sequence is an eye opener. 
Thanks for posting this Chris, on first impression, the hand path almost looks like an OTT move until you reconcile it to where the pivot is in relation at any given moment. Great diagram and post, one can imagine that Doug Sanders would have an even flatter and tighter hand path judging from the sequence that Two has just put up.
I think the real action is to rotate so precisely within the confines of the bluse lines, meaning no straighterning of the knees and hence torso. Everything else is a result because something has to be moving. So its the rotating spine/a.k.a torso a.ka shoulders.
Macs,
that is so true… the post impact torso and shoulder rotation is what is going to make it work (superslotting)
You can slot it all you want but if you can’t pull the sword from the stone… forget it.
The golf swing is a movement from start to finish. Critical in it’s movement from transition to finish. The ball is incidental.
If you think the swing is over when the ball leaves the clubface, think again… it actually becomes more critical.
Teddy,
Patience is a virtue around here. I heard it took one student 8 months to finish up module #1 
I meant keeping in touch with the blue lines and not simply within them. I wonder if any one can(could) actually increase knee flex from P3 to P4 thus broadening there diagonal width from the forhead to the tush.???
Like so:
Mr. Hogan did it, but he started very tall and then started his backswing with this bunny hop trigger to lower his body the
first time… I tried it one time - way to complicated, but it is possible.
In my case I knew I lower at transition and it is more a combination of my lateral motion (ca.10 inches) and my left side lateral bend (I wish my right side would do this at trasition as well for more squatting…):
Interesting is the second pic… The shaft is perpendicular to my spine… must be my personal power move…
The handpath is OTT but the Club comes from the inside… For sure my right shoulder don´t trace any baseline… jup - some kind of shoulder throw…
With longer clubs it is more neutral, but always from release point it goes sharp left… and never straight or out… like
the slingers.
Sure on my 3 wood I have maybe 8-12 gramm leadtape… to come to D7 like my Driver as well…
I had one time a Driver with swingweight E2 - what a beast - it lay down at transition by itself,
but you had to swing sooo smoothly and it was like a forearm workout to practice with it…
Chris
Chris, can you describe the bunny hop trigger? Thanks
The elective super slotting module is in final editing mode… so just an update for those dreading another thing to ponder!
Exciting to hear. I was wondering how it was coming along.
