Understanding the Pressure Shift: The Difference Between Pressure and Mass

Join The Force Plate Guy from the lab at Measured Golf in Ann Arbor, Michigan as he discusses how the pressure shift works in the golf swing and how we need to separate our pressure from our mass to play the best golf possible.

Love your ability to put these movements into words that is understandable.

[@measuredgolf]

Thank you. All the best!

Cant wait to try this today. You do the best video's on you tube for weight transfer. Still struggling with it but you describe it great. I find because I don't transfer weight well it stops me from swinging through properly.

[@measuredgolf]

Most people that don’t finish well have a lower trail hip at delivery which prevents them from being able finish standing tall on their lead leg. A great thought for this is starting your downswing with the cue of getting your trail heel all the way around your trail ankle as fast as possible. You want to get the outside of your trail shoe all the way on the ground, this should get you feeling way more pressure on your lead side and sooner. All the best!

Great video I just got down shift board do you have any other videos on ways to use. Thank you

[@measuredgolf]

There are a couple of others that you can find on our channel. All the best.

I was watching your video with Fast Eddie, and it appears that he is torgueing his feet clock wise. I wanted to make sure that I am understanding correctly this movement because it appears that he is doing the opposite of this video. He obviously is a super great athlete and Long drive champion and so my guess is that what you show him is tailored to his specific swing which is certainly not like mere mortals.😎 Thank You

Great video I love the link you make to our anatomy in your videos. In the backswing would our lead foot be twisting clockwise to load the spine? Also in the downswing both feet do the opposite of the backswing?

[@measuredgolf]

Yes, the lead foot would be twisting clockwise in the backswing. You are also correct that we reverse the twist in the transition and downswing. Important to be sure when twisting the lead foot counter clockwise that the lead hip doesn’t move away from the ball, this is the cause for spin out and not what we want. All the best.

@@measuredgolfso does the trail foot then move counter clockwise on the backswing, and then clockwise on the down? Opposite to the lead foot

[@measuredgolf]

@@andrevanstaden221 you got it!

[@dr.kareempize767]

@@measuredgolfso you’re saying the feet feel like they’re pidgeon toeing towards each other? This doesn’t make sense to me but I think I’m missing something

[@measuredgolf]

@@dr.kareempize767 it is not a positioning of the feet itis how we internally and externally rotate the joint segments that make up the leg. The idea is that you aren’t trying to open your right hip in the backswing, you are am trying to twist your lead side against a neutral or slightly internally rotated trail hip. All the best.
