Does STACK & TILT Work For Driver?

“Stack and Tilt is great for irons, but it doesn’t work with the driver, right?”
WRONG! In fact, Stack & Tilt co-founder, Andy Plummer, will tell you that Stack & Tilt was DESIGNED FOR THE DRIVER!
So if you’ve “tried” Stack & Tilt, but can’t get it to work with the driver, then you’re doing it wrong.
Today’s video will explain how having your WEIGHT FORWARD for the driver is the gateway to greater DISTANCE, and the ability to DRAW the ball with ease. Swinging this way also removes the variable that shifting your weight back and forth brings which is the root cause of your inconsistency, weak slices, and lack of distance. It's also kinder to your body!
Once you understand HOW to swing with your weight forward, you’ll never want to do it any other way!

Being a mechanic engineer, Rob's narratives really work for me. Having a slight masochistic tendency his message on practicing HARD also resonates :-) My new favorite channel on improving my game.

[@Graham-bg3ij]

The higher handicap golfer and especially juniors do move way way off behind their ball in their backswing - I think the 80 / 20 weight set at address might sound excessive but actually it really isn’t ! The alignment rod from left hip down to left ankle at address and throughout does help golfers stabilize themselves more effectively- Good points here

[@user-gr6og9dj7l]

Nice.

Hi does the tilt for the other clubs the same as the driver

[@cetbell]

So good Rob! For the first time ever I understand this principle!

[@ayatollahofroknrollah5589]

Best explanation on the stack and tilt for the driver. Simple and straightforward process. Another gem of a video.

[@BruceOglevie]

went out to range yesterday using the stack and tilt for all clubs. Much improvement on irons, but not so much on driver and now I know why. I was using same mechanics on driver as for irons, and I wasn't using my hips for the weight forward, I was using my entire body. I had forgotten the difference for the driver. Also, how do you feel about straightening right leg for improved turn. I wish I could send you a video you could see how restricted I am due to back fusion in my turn

[@jasonpereira5693]

Great video. I'm going to try this tomorrow.

Rob hello from the U.S. You are the best teacher of S@T. There are good ones like Nick T your friend and Tom Saguto but everytime I watch something to improve my S&T swing you seem to have just the right info to make clear. Quick example my driving was good but a bit inconsistent and just watching your video on Driving I realized my stance was too narrow. By widening my driving is better than ever. Thanks brother

I am currently playing hickory clubs. What's amazing Rob is I applied your techniques to my swing in hitting 100+ year old driver, brassie and spoon. It has definitely worked and is straightening out the ball flight from the tee and fairway. I have more work to do, but to me this proves that your S&T techniques are essentially "timeless" and apply no matter the club being played....even 100 year old hickories. Cheers mate.

[@daviddelzell675]

Thanks for this video, Rob. The funny thing is I was stack and tilting in my twenties ( I'm 60 now ) and my golf pro told me I needed to shift my weight. Eventually I started hitting the ball well, but it took quite a while and I lost yards! I tried the stack and tilt yesterday and had good results. The only thing I really struggled with was the transition through impact. My irons had a habit of going left in addition to a draw, so my shots to the green left me putts that were longer than I would have liked. I'm sure I will figure it out on the range. I hope!

[@abe5318]

How do you initiate a downswing in Stack N Tilt.. is it just (left hip) or (right shoulder and right hip flexion ) or (left shoulder pulling down)? thanksl

Just moved to S&T over the summer and really struggling with the driver - too be fair I was before S&T, but even more so now. This video really hits home with me so I plan to work on this setup. My relationship with my irons has improved dramatically so I hope I can get to the same place with my driver. Going to work on this over the winter. Thanks mate.

[@rteach1]

Fantastic video. One question: With all of the other clubs in the bag, should we also be setting up with our weight forward by bumping the hips slightly forward? If so, I assume there is a smaller hip bump as the clubs get shorter. Is there ever a club or occasion when we *should* get the lower *and* upper centers forward at address? Thank you very much.

[@edenharms9416]

Rob, could you answer this question ? Thank you!

[@greghill5183]

Great info

[@robchapman3514]

On Monday I finally put all the pieces together. I hit 300 balls at the range. Hitting a consistent draw for the first time ever. Once I figured out how to use it for driver I couldn't believe the results. I hit my 9°driver higher than I've ever hit it, carry was around 230m, big high draw. ( my usual distance is 225m including roll out)I'm in love with stack and tilt. I've been trying to learn the conventional swing for 3 yrs. I'm 56yrs old and in pretty good shape.I've hit around 60k practice balls, numerous lessons and nothing but the misery of inconsistency. I've even had to recover from a sore trail foot caused by my inability to master the weight shift. Thanks to Mike and Andy for reinventing the golf swing. I see ppl getting lessons and the movement pattern they are trying to learn is nearly impossible to master as and older person. I'm looking forward to enjoying this great game and achieving my goal of a single figure handicap.

[@davidkott1596]

Might be a good topic for a video.

[@janestewart412]

Just off to buy a new driver this morning and this video has come at the right time. I use S&T for my other clubs but struggle with a big hook with the driver. I’m hoping, on the machine today I’ll be able to put this information into practice to get the right driver for me. Looking at 10k ping and Taylor made. I was definitely putting the whole body forward instead of just the lower body. Funny but that doesn’t happen with my irons. Think I’m trying to put too much effort into the driver. Thanks Rob, great video, concise and very timely.

[@scooter5940]

I am still learning the stack and tilt but had similar issues. I think it doesn’t happen with the irons because the iron stance is narrower, so your spine is more neutral. You can feel the weight forward without exaggerating it. With the driver, the wide stance and the ball forward makes your spine tilt back (towards the trail foot) slightly, as it should. That doesn’t feel right for the S&T, so you compensate by really trying to bring your weight forward, which messes up the spine tilt you need to launch the driver with an ascending swing. At least that’s what I was doing, until I figured it out finally.

[@gibsonjk4]

[@SoCalGolfer1966]

I’ve been watching and learning via all the videos and my game has improved a ton, went from 80’s to 70’s almost instantly! Driver is still my struggle and it’s the only club! I find my ball coming off low and hooking or block, it seems my plane is to high. Today I noticed that head was coming off the ball, with the tilt it would go in front then on down swing move back how important is head being still?

[@noahroet8258]

For all clubs, when you take the ball back in your stance for a draw and get your setup right (hands forward and up, closed shoulders and hips etc), do you take a slightly closed grip or do you grip it straight and let the alignment/swing path take care of the rest? Eg when I set up for an 8-iron with the ball in middle of my stance for a push draw, do I need to slightly close the grip or just leave it square? With a square grip, with ball in centre and stance set up for draw, the clubface is open to target and I get concerned it is going to block to the right.

[@888och]

In weight on left foot swing at setup for right handed golfer how to do the takeaway? In conventional instruction in takeaway the club should be parrella to the ground. So how to do takeaway with weight forward on left foot ?

[@bobburch2151]

Hi rob. Great video as always. do you shift weight forward the same way with irons.?

[@davidwalters313]

Hi Rob. Thanks for this. Would you do the same for irons ie just the pelvis forward rather than the whole lead side?

[@starks1974]

I noticed in the S&T video he has his trail leg slightly straight, and lead bent. Is that the proper set up? I assume that is a good check point to know your weight is on the lead side and the trail leg is almost preset for the backswing. P.S. You da man Rob!

[@rickcudmore8156]

My golf season has ended with snow on the ground in southern Ontario, Canada. I will attempt to try this at the indoor range. Having seen what weight forward means has cleared things up. I notice in the video your trail foot appears to be positioned back off the target line, is that intentional to promote your push draw?

[@seniorswing8441]

Is it my fault to tilt the left hip during bsw? I find it difficult with wider driver stance.

[@dennissprules5821]

Hi Rob, I like your Videos very informative , I have been using the S & T method for some time now with quiet a lot of success but from time to time i tend to hit a high draw or even a ball that goes left of target without a Draw this can be quiet annoying, but on the whole my good shots are very well struck and it has improved my Handycap can you offer any advice on this please . Cheers Den

[@corporate27]

What defines a S&T swing if every good player hits the ball with their weight forward? Obviously, not every good player follows S&T. So, is the S&T swing defined by fact that there’s no pressure shift to the trail leg in the backswing?

[@jerrynetherlain1897]

Just found this video. Although I am a stack and tilt golfer, your comparison was not really valid. No other swing method advocates that you actually keep your weight back at impact. They expect you to re-center.

[@randymahony8157]

Hey Rob weight forward you seem to have the ball a little bit more forward. Is that correct or just a camera angle. Thanks

[@MaFaKeys]

Thank you Rob! Three weeks ago I went from consistent driving to completely mishitting the driver by applying the wrong tilt. Yesterday I changed it and moved my pelvis towards target putting more weight on my front leg amd creating a natural tilt from there. Not only does it make rotating through a lot easier, other also creates a consistent in to out path and making the ball fly straight to the target. It’s work in progress, but I believe the way forward! Do you have any advice for us “55+ age” golfers how we can get some extra move,ent from first parallel to top of backswing? I feel like I really lack flexibility to move the arms up from that point and it then makes the swing inconsistent.

I watched this video and without much practice before my league round last night, I added 25 yards on my drive INTO a stiff wind, hit my 3 wood on and made the putt for an eagle! You're the best!

[@carlor.s.4742]

Ahh! Just move the hips forward. I think subconsciously I have often moved the shoulder forward when I move the hip. I will make a conscious effort to just move the hip forward from now on. What would be the problem caused by moving the shoulder forward Rob?

[@hongtao2932]

I have the same problem as yours. Moving shoulder forward for short clubs is OK but diffcult for long clubs. I changed my setup according to Cheney' s video and have solid shot for long clubs now.

[@t_0718]

@ 6:00 the ball on the left is more to the back of your foot. Where as the ball on the right is more center or even more forward. Could you explain why so much further forward when weight is on your left foot ? Thanks great content

[@Jaredxstp]

I’ve only been golfing two years and I was doing good with driver and lost it out of nowhere and went to the range today and realized I wasn’t putting a lot of weight on my lead foot anymore and soon as I did I was bombing them again. Had to check KZbin to make sure that was a thing for swinging driver. Makes a huge difference and almost impossible not to make a good connection and it also feels really good and makes your back foot lift up and twist naturally like it should as your body turns and rotates around the lead foot with the weight on it

[@redgreen01]

Thank-you from for showing me how to control low point and reduce variable and compensations as my ability to transfer my weight forward is much reduced due to a lack of flexibility, back and age related issues.

[@jamesdickerson1657]

Bryson does this very thing. I don't know if he would say that he uses stack and tilt but he has found the best way to hit it far and that is using your legs and set up like this. I have a video of him at the PGA Championship and it was amazing how much weight he left on his front side!!

Tried this today with great results. Had to play with ball position a little to fine tune. That hip bump limits your ability to come over the top which is exactly what i needed.
