The power of your golf swing is directly affected by the rotation of your hips. By turning your hips faster in your swing, you will increase the length of your drives and iron shots. This will generate more power through the speed of the rotation.

Many professional golfers have a very quick hip rotation in golf swing. It is very noticeable in the professional golfer Tiger Woods' shot.

During the down swing your shoulders rotate 90 degrees from your starting position and your hips rotate a little less than 45 degrees. The difference creates a torque that gives you power in your down swing. The hips are the keys to power and when used properly they can increase the distance of your shots substantially.

Your hips at the maximum of your back swing should point above the center of your core just above your belly button. Your hips start the down swing and are the first movement of the downswing.

As the hips begin the down swing the shoulders should follow with the arms following the shoulders. If the shoulders lead, then the shot will be less powerful and can cause slices in your shot.

During the down swing you do not want to rotate the hips too much or too quickly. The swing should naturally transfer the weight from the back to the front in a fluid motion.

By gradually increasing the speed of your hip rotation in golf swing, you should see a great change in the power of your drives and iron shots.
