NEVER CLEAR YOUR HIPS LIKE THIS (90% of golfers make this swing destroying mistake)

[@davidhester9716]

Boy does this video make sense for me. I have been working with your “best drill ever” where a club is placed under the rear foot and behind the left leg, which I believe has helped turn in the manner you described. I have before been trying to turn by pushing the right hip forward and as a result experienced shanks and never been able to maintain posture and swing through the ball. I am sure I am now on the path to improve. Many thanks my friend!!!

This is a great video!! I have been struggling with hitting the ball at the heel of the club. I have compensated this issue by placing the ball at the toe of the club. This allowed me to hit the center of the club face. I always thought it was my swing path. But I did not realize the issue was caused my hip rotation. Thank you for this.

Another good use of the swing plate. May be a dedicated video about all the swing plate use for x or y problem ?

[@jchowngolf]

Tomorrow’s video is all about training aids which the swing plate is heavily featured. It’s like you knew what was being uploaded Sebastien haha

This is a really great way to think about the down swing and lends to the follow through. I just did a few practice swings and felt a massive difference in the way my hips turned. I look forward to my next range day to test this out. I can see this fixing my slicing problem. Moving the hips in this way lends to a proper follow through and would also align the club in my down swing. I hope your channel grows and develops.

Thanks for this video it has completely changed my swing in 1 session

Thanks bud, at last the reason I’m shanking it’s been driving me to the point I was thinking of quitting the game, Lost club championship final because of this shot five down after six because I was scared to swing an iron tried to stiff arm them after splitting the fairway with my Driver. I have been following your vids for a while now and find them very easy to understand Thank you Regards Robert Ps got a set of Taylormade Sim Max 2 O/S and going to get them flattened by 3 deg I’m 5’4” WTF 30” any advice.

[@burtreynolds9776]

I think this is why I've been hitting the ball off the hosel a bunch lately, can't wait to bring this to the range and try it.

Absolute legend. Thank you very much👍👍👍

[@leepetersen4082]

YUP! and is it EVER hard to change doin it! Thanks!

[@brianhughes2842]

Hi Jonathan, great video. Are you able to explain or present another video on how to get this left hip action when trying to keep your back to the target a little longer on the downswing?

[@shochikubai8084]

JC, cold wx and winter is approaching soon here Midwest america. How about a video of your best 5 drills that can be done indoors? Thank you.

[@jchowngolf]

Great idea 👍🏼

[@jimgaskill5400]

Great tip!

[@jchowngolf]

Thanks Jim!

[@jimgaskill5400]

@@jchowngolf you're welcome! I am 60 years old and I took up golf 15 years ago. I am a 10 handicap and I always appreciate your tips. All of them are valuable and helpful!

[@johnlapensee8039]

Is also keep the right foot on the ground and straightening the left leg the answerA///

[@steveothemagician3001]

great tip- I sometimes throw my right hip out to try and get the rotation. Never again.

[@zap0311]

Great and novel drill that I’ll have to try! More practical than the chair on your backside because you can take full swings.

[@nreifer04]

This is the exact thing I do when I increase rotation, then hit worse and turn off rotation to try and hit straight. I'll definitely give this drill a try because I can look pretty good at P6 but terrible contact.

[@silkyj9810]

Whenever I make this movement I feel like my weight is staying on my trailside. It feels like the reason I early extend is to satisfy my need to transfer weight forward. As soon as I transfer weight to the front side I cant turn and keep my trail foot down. Any suggestions?

[@AlexSteenOlsen]

I give it a try

[@jchowngolf]

🤙🏻🤙🏻

[@ZhaustEzine]

Eureka!!

[@anttisavolainen547]

Perkele! Yes, cursing. Great stuff💥, but why nobody told me about this ( and couple other tips) 10 years ago. 😼🤭

[@miloradjelic7521]

😁👍

I was going to massively dispute your claim that 90% of golfers make this mistake, then I got to wondering if my definition of golfer is too broad. I play mostly at munis in the US and I see more golfers whose hips barely rotate at all than ones who are trying and throwing their trail hip forward and out of line. So I won't challenge your 90% claim and assume that you are talking about people who are taking lessons and actually trying to improve, not the hackers who watch one slo-mo of Woods swinging his driver then sally forth to conquer the course.
