This is THE lesson. Well done. I watched this when it came out and re-imagine the lesson regularly. Thanks Russell

[thumperk]

That is the best setup explanation I've ever seen. Thank you Russell!

[jrkastl]

You just described my 12-year-old's set up position perfectly. He's so happy that you made this video!

[jeffreyisreal]

Very good and easy to understanding of set up. I bet I am doing what you said about improper set up

[danflesj]

Thanks for a lot of good tips! Does this tip apply to driver also?

[tigerwuuds]

You have just nailed everything that's wrong with my swing upon having lessons now but thanks for the info well appreciated

[tobybarker]

Its worth mentioning that as we get older (hips becoming less flexible) a wider stance makes it HARDER to rotate (anyway, that's my experience). Interesting video this...I learnt a lot..thumbs up

[stefanomaniscalchi]

we were told from everybody and eveywhere that if you have a narrow stance it is easier to rotate the hips and now you state the opposite, it is easier to rotate with a a wider stance.This is why golf is a difficult spoet, so many info that contradict each others

[darrenaustralia]

So front and rear foot is approx 25% open to target like when doing a pitching shot ?

[steveanderson]

Russell, I understand your setup but want to clarify, your lead foot is opened up, ball is set closer to your lead foot. If you were to lay down a cane behind both heels, touching them, would it be parallel to your target line?

[PC-pdhl]

Doesn't the width of stance very much depends on leg length compared to torso length and shoulder width, and not just shoulder width? If the sides of equal length of an isosceles triangle are very very long (eg David Leadbetter), then for stability the stance has to be wider than the shoulders, and vice versa for people with 'short' legs.

[derekcarday]

A big reason why golfers naturally do those awkward setups is because they are right eye dominant while also right handed. Unlike most tour players who are left eye dominant and right handed

[boxfullofneutral]

Agree with everything apart from rotation, rotation is easier with a narrow stance. That’s why police ask you to spread your legs in the US when searching, as it’s harder to turn around 😊

Been watching this guy's vids for a few years now and never once has the subject of loading onto the lead leg (ie stack & tilt) been mentioned. Now all of a sudden thats the current topic. Why? The fundamentals are either fundamental or they're subjective surely? Sounds like an opportunity just to make another video to me. Call me a cynic..

Typical contradictory guidance from one 'pro' vs another.
