I had a breakthrough yesterday related to ground force. During takeaway the weight loads into the lead leg as the club moves away...once the weight is loaded into the lead leg we can load the club/wrists as the weight is being shifted like the step drill.... Essentially it's loading the pressure you feel in the lead leg During the step drill.... I have been and I believe Most who hear get the weight to the trail side are doing it way too soon... When we shift too soon to the trail side we get stuck and off balance.....We are too static at address to just go to trail leg without loading the lead leg first... The weight doesn't spend more time on the trail leg than the time it takes to react to the lead leg pushing the weight into it....

3:33 1 or 2 % that's practice but still its helpful for us. No question my balance is horrible on a snap hook. Finish on my rt. toes. A lot of pros have an idea of what they want to do that ultimately takes care of issues indirectly. Bubba said he liked to imagine he turned like a rubber band winding up the torso. He then said width back width down width past.

Goldilocks drill is great..I remember Dave Pelz teaching it for short pitch shots. Take a wedge and swing in a way that will go further than landing spot, then a swing that will land short, and then somewhere in the middle is where you’re shot will be close to where you want to land it.

8:35 85% in the trail side before the club is parallel with the ground is unbalanced as the 15% left over won't allow us to be stable as we try to shift the weight from trail to lead

This is really good info. What I find with my students is they are always in a rush to hit the ball that they 1 fail to make the pressure shift and 2 the transition becomes to rushed and the body and arms do not sync up one or the other is to quick.

15 years ago Mike Maves released his The Move vid. In it he explains the trail foot pressure position and Hogans extra spike. In it his friend stated “you are hitting that boat out there every time. The trail leg is the pivot. It is a key to consistency. This is old news. Don’t need 10s of thousands dollars in a gadget to know that.

Very helpful insight. I’ll definitely be more aware of applying consistent pressures next time I’m practicing. Question: is there a consistent relationship to where the club mass is when the pressures get back to 50/50 in the transition, or does this depend more on the particular player and/or the length of club? Question: when the pressures return to 50/50 should a player feel the pressures spread out evenly across the bottoms of the feet or more towards the balls and heels of the feet? Thanks
@andyk92579 ай бұрын
Kinda like lag, feel like this is just a result of a good consistent movement/action. Not something you necessarily try to force. I don't think any of these pros got as good as they did chasing measurements of another pro. They just kept practicing until they optimized their swing and efficiency.
@kevinbrocklehurst53499 ай бұрын
This was very interesting I’m going to try what Scott said about hitting balls from front foot and all the way to the back foot and see what works better. As to the rest of the video I’m not sure why you started dancing around and talking about how you get your weight there. It would be cool to see if you hit a bucket of balls with 5 different clubs then take the top few shots with each club and see if your weight shift was similar with all your good shots.

Not mentioned is when the most weight is distributed on the backswing. Tommy’s was about waist high yours was just past your back foot. . To me when you do it is more important. Or does it not matter since it wasn’t a point of interest?

Scott told me when didn’t matter too much (although too late is a problem) just that it happens around the same time and the real key is amount of pressure being consistent

No it doesn’t remain there. That is the max amount of pressure that gets to his trailside and he does that every time about the same timing.

Your arms are 10% of your weight, if I set up 50/50 and only swing my arms am I at 60% on the right? So Tommy's 75 is actually only 15 body (if you see what I mean)
