In this video, we show you some improved FEELS to help you get more body rotation so you can get MORE OPEN at impact!
Professional golfers and great ball strikers rotate their body through impact rather than making a standing up or straighten action and this drill will give you the feeling of what you are looking to achieve as you hit the golf ball.
If you tend to be too steep on your downswing, Swing instructor Jim Williams has a great tip to help you flatten your swing plane as you approach the ball.
Doing it this way will simplify your golf swing and improve your ball striking!
Golf Swing Lateral Motion:
In this video we look at the key differences in the way that pros and amateurs move the center of the torso and the center of the pelvis throughout the golf swing.
What we have found in our 3D research is that the classic “reverse k” setup is not something the best players in the world employ. Also, for the professional, during the downswing, the torso remains on top of the pelvis (or even gets in front of the pelvis) until the hands reach around waist high. At this point the high level player pushes hard with the lead side which causes the pelvis to finally shift out in front of the torso.
We believe that over the years for golf instruction (for the sake of simplicity) has taken the static position of impact and tried to employ it in the swing via the reverse K setup and keeping the torso behind the pelvis during the entire motion. The problem with this is that it can cause a severe in-to-out swing direction and a reduction in ground force production as the player is not able to push as hard with his lead side late in the downswing (as it would cause him to topple over). This has caused countless (better players especially) to struggle with hooking and pushing the ball.
Now we have all seen the chronic slicer who has benefitted from some “reverse k” feeling in their swing especially if they have the upper body well to the left of the pelvis at the top of the swing, but in this video series we are highlighting the lower handicapper amateur who is trying to take their game to the next level.

Eliminate Early Extension
The hips moving forward off the tush line towards the golf ball (early extension) creates a whole mess of issues in your golf swing and greatly affects your ability to compress the golf ball.
In this video, we show you a couple great drills to help you eliminate your early extension!
