![]() as a result the swing seems more at ease, I trust the mechanics more, the ball goes farther and the misses are much more recoverable.įrom the top of the backswing, the angle in the right knee only changes as the left side pulls and extends. additionally the body was completely at ease with the move unlike with the lateral hip movement to NJA. could see the rotation moving the left leg to the NJA. so I practiced the move in front of the mirror. ![]() the motion was identical to what I did years ago playing baseball. I reviewed this video and Chris' video on the same subject. ![]() so I went home somewhat confused (which is a big improvement because I'm usually really confused!). even when I hit a good shot the swing still felt uncomfortable. so we worked on mitigating the right side, relaxing the grip and arms. Chris said the weight shift was good but there was still too much right side interfering with the swing. I was concerned I wasn't shifting my weight back to the left properly because the motion felt so uncomfortable (was making an initial lateral hip to NJA). had a lesson couple of weeks ago with Chris. Thanks.Įxternal rotation of the left leg/thigh has been a godsend for me. (Note: I watched the shoulder blade glide video a few times, but I didn't find the "secret" for me in that video). The analysis made sense, but I'm still struggling and I'm looking for some insight as to what muscles I need to fire and in what order to start the rotation into the back swing. For me, from a feel standpoint, I was trying to start the rotation by firing the left side obliques and move them to the center of my axis which apparently translates to a push from the left side during the video analysis. However, Chris did a swing review on me the other day, and his feedback was that it looks as though I'm pushing with my left side. This seems to create a feeling of much more tension, and thus hopefully power, stored in the back swing. Recently, after watching most of the core rotation videos, I started to think about it as rotating my core rather than my shoulders. The results on the course speak for themselves as I can barely hit a drive 180 yards. In this video, Chuck talks about turning the shoulders but for me, I've always been a "shoulder turner," and I find that when I approach the rotation into the back swing by turning my shoulders, I generate a bunch of tension in the chest and shoulders, but I don't feel any tension created in the core. I'm trying to understand what muscles to fire first in order to start the rotation into the back swing.
