How the Feet Start the Downswing - Think Feet, Not your Hips 2.0 - Torque Entire Downswing!!!

larrycheunggol...
Rotation in the downswing is often mistakenly done by just spinning your hips, but we want to make sure we get proper hip turn by using our feet's interaction with the ground to get it.

The man of 1000 hairdos has done it again! This seemed like a big breakthrough on the course today. It has my hips moving away from the ball at impact instead of toward it. Much better rotation too.

My 9yr old daughter struggles with early extension. Her right foot and knee shoots straight forward towards the ball. Tries real hard to get on the left side. This move really helped her tonight get a “feel” of what her right foot should be doing. In the beginning, she was shooting her foot straight back. After several attempts, we got her to slide right like you mentioned. Her footwork now on shots are million times better! I’ve been searching months for feels out there for her. Thank you!

Thanks so much for the final piece of the jigsaw in my golf swing. Been playing golf for over 50 years and have been as low as 12 but never been able to kick on from there and realise this has been the reason why. Again many thanks...

[@wilsonhung8654]

Makes hell lot of sense, and thanks for taking this drill further for us. Years ago, I watched Butch Harmon (or someone else I can't recall) on the Golf Channel saying that during the downswing he would suggest to keep the heel of the trail foot ahead of the toe (towards the target) for a while longer. And you have simply demonstrated this with greater details! Very solid, thank you very much for doing what you're doing !

[@primuslim]

My favourite of your videos just got an update ! Awesome!

[@JamesJones-zh4fg]

Makes perfect sense.. you’re the man Larry!

[@geoffreyfoo312]

Thank you for clearing that up LC. That’s a lot more torquing than I initially thought. 👍

[@igolffff]

I saw the first video and have been doing it but the turning to 3 is definitely a great add on

[@tAkg-bk3qt]

thank you so much larry. cause of you i'm on the road to consistency the first time since i started playing five years ago. Would support you by buying merch if there would be some stuff to buy

[@LarryCheungGolf]

just tell your friends! =)

[@martinh5402]

haha im a bit late on this but great work Larry, I was fooling about with this a few years ago then I saw George Gankas teaches this too so I tried to ingrain this cue as I 100% believe it. It always feels awesome in drills and sometimes in hitting balls but I often don't feel it (not torqued onto the right I am thinking on those efforts) or I don't get left well enough which is another thing I struggle to do consistently.

[@jameslovering9158]

Found this great, and this is so key for me to get power and control. "turn turn turn :-)"

[@ReaverWall]

Still work in progress for me but I am getting better, still a few things that needs to addressed but see a much overall improvement in strike and angle of attack on the irons. Getting better dispersion and even hitting it further as a result with a lot less effort than before. Thanks for the immensly great content you make!

[@martinbengtsson8671]

Tennis forhand shot does the exact same thing 👍

[@MsRocketRoy]

More great advice. Thank you.

[@arthit9999]

great result!

[@ericamin12]

Thanks for explaining this!!

[@623baller]

is this the correct sequence? torque trail foot 12 to 3o clock on backswing then to start down swing torque feet from 12 to 9 o clock on lead foot? love this video only thing i think beginners will struggle is if they putt too much focus emphasis on trail foot during down swing , it's not the ideal weight transfer to lead foot

[@tonytanti8138]

Larry can u pls do a video on players who get hands to far behind them and hit too in to out

[@hboprof]

Been hitting my irons close to the heel (leading to the occasional dreaded shank) until this torquing motion moved my butt back and now I'm hitting more in the center of the clubface. It seems all this time my butt (and my swing path) was moving towards the ball causing the near-heel strike.

[@griff_again]

Brilliant explanation! Lemme see ya torque torque torque torque torque

[@paull544]

great info. thank you

[@robsaxepga]

Two ways to come back, one way to come down. The feet can lead back and down or just down. Swinging from the feet can control the entire motion. Hard to teach that but it is possible.

[@Pjfirla]

Should you feel the torque during backswing

[@HabibiGolf]

Same question.

[@gaultinator]

Amazing

[@johnnybravo9087]

Hi Larry. If I have a faster swing using arms only feel rather than rotation based should I stick with the arms swing?

[@LarryCheungGolf]

if you are happy with how you are swinging then no reason to try and change anything =)

[@shrimboy7492]

dude.. that's it! Gankas also used this but he doesn' explained it!

[@chachifeere]

Any tips to cure a flip at the ball or to get the shaft lean more off the from leg. I’m struggling with this. I have a square or closed face on down swing. And I’m turning my body , it seems like my left arm is bending a bit at impact on full swing but 3/4 70% power my impact looks great

[@LarryCheungGolf]

no idea unless I see how you swing lol =)

[@atsq17]

How about the lead foot during all this? Just relax it?

[@Rajiujitsu206]

Hey larry what kind of pants are you wearing?

[@LarryCheungGolf]

uniqlo joggers this pair was =)

[@jdothman8575]

Larry. I have to ask. Wagwarn with the hair

[@Frank-yx1np]

goog remark,,,the turn of the hips comes from the forces out of the ground

[@Dan-nh8nu]

No way my spikeless shoes will cope in winter conditions lol

[@Eatumup4eva]

FIrst!) Ha
