This video is a gold mine of insight! After learning so much about the swing from your videos over the years it's my belief that the swing should be taught in terms of your 3 phases and in terms of the dynamic movements required to master those three phases (as opposed to fishing for positions as you say). I think this concept would greatly accelerate the time required to build an elite golf swing!

You’re guy’s content is absolutely the best. I’ve been quietly following for a few months, but would like to say thanks, you make understanding this crazy stuff simple somehow.

[stevenielsen]

Back, middle, knew about the re-centering but I misunderstood the sequencing. This REALLY helps 👏🏼👊🏼🔥🔥🔥

[bhabi]

Consistently excellent content.
Nice to hear the Manzella shout out. He's an original, with some fresh ideas.

[richardleichman]

Very clear in details, and very much appreciated.

i dont leave a lot of comments, but the tip about the club head toe being a little higher when holding the club out in front I think has helped me figure out my issue with slicing it.

I have been having an issue where i am needing to roll my wrist to get the club face square and I think this will help. Thanks so much!

When I started trusting that first step (the return motion) it really made a massive improvement on my swing.

A few years ago, as part of a back swing video, Shaun demonstrated the club head initially moving away from the target line at perhaps 30° before heading up. I can’t find the video and would appreciate it if you could direct me to it.

Excellent stuff as always! Loved it all. Can you make sure you give a 360* view of each position you review for us visual learners?

[mikeschick]

Very helpful to identify the trail upper arm as being parallel to the ground at the top. It is like giving the arms permission to go that high! You guys are a treasure.

[richardpascoe]

Hi Guys. Thanks for your dedication and hard work. Could you please explain why the "second" bump in the backswing is SO important and what happens if the second bump isnt employed

[malcolmparker]

always great content, sessions greetings from down under, you guys have been given us gifts for 5 years thanks

[marcmanion]

Really love simplicity and practical explanations for swinging a club! Cannot wait for Build Perfect Backswing in 3 steps!!!

I was waiting for your next video to ask, but this video looks like the appropriate video to ask in: what are your guy's thoughts on the concept of the ProSendr? Maybe even any experience?

[russdaley]

Great content as always. As I practice, I find myself going back and rewatching your videos and often find little "gems" that did not stick in my mind or my swing the first time I watched. Priceless for continual improvement. Thank you, AMG!

[georgetinwick]

There is a ton of great advice there. Tks

[elogan]

Super helpful and most importantly EASY tip to get my weight moving properly. Thanks guys

I believe that you've mentioned this point in a different video: the shift off of the ball ends when the club is furthest away from you (and the target); "recentering" is initiated as the club arcs up and back towards the ball (closer to you) ... right?

You mention Dr. Kwon. I watched a recent video he did with 52 year old long drive pro Fast Eddie Fernandez. In it, the entire hip and shoulder turn on the backswing was initiated by starting with a slight bend of the right (trail) knee and then straightening the right leg quite strongly. There was no shift back away from the target, although Fernandez tends to do that. Kwon's push up motion automatically resulted in the hips and shoulders turning back fast. Kwon always recommends a fast backswing, though also allowing it to be completed and not rushing to start the downswing. He says the fast full backswing promotes a fast downswing. So he told Fernandez to wind up with the fast backswing created by the right leg straightening, coiling the body, and then letting loose on the downswing.

I was trying to copy this while working with drivers at my local PGA superstore in Rockville, Maryland. I was trying to get more clubhead speed, and not guiding or slowing and pausing the backswing, but instead using the abrupt straightening of the right leg to turn the hips and shoulders back and then letting it fly on the downswing. Because I am an older golfer (just turned 82 on June 17) and don't have the rubber flexibility of a young person, I do run into a problem in turning the left shoulder a lot yet still being able to see the ball because making that full turn forces your head to turn and it's hard to keep an eye on the ball.

The long session, working with three drivers and testing two different balls, meant a lot of force exerted on that right leg. I have a tendency to get pain in the right knee and down the outside of my calf. The orthopedist took x-rays and I don't have arthritis. My theory is that it somehow involves pinching the lower sciatic nerve branches that go through the knee and down to the ankle. I don't have any of the traditional sciatic pain in the hip area. But if aggravated this makes it really hurt to lift the leg and bend the knee, walk normally, or go up a stair. It comes and goes, and can suddenly disappear to where I feel fine and can walk well. Anyway, the long practice emphasizing the hard right leg push up that Kwon had Fernandez do did cause a flare up.

So my question to you is, in this video I see you shifting away from the target quite lot on the backswing, then shifting back toward the target, via that leaning move Kwon teaches. But what I don't see is how you accomplish turning the hip and shoulders on the backswing. I don't see keeping the right leg firm to push off from, or the bending and quick straightening of the right knee as something that automatically promotes a full and fast backswing. Could you discuss how you recommend getting the hips and shoulders turned back. I have seen several of your Gears videos with the blue avatars showing the difference between pro and amateur hip turns on the backswing and downswing, but I don't recall seeing instruction on how to get to those positions with leg movement.

Great stuff. The breaking up of the backswing into loading on the trail side until halfway and then moving weight to the lead side into two parts, and then combining them, makes the concept so much easier, especially for my irons. How do I do it for the driver and staying behind the ball hitting up on it? The movement to the lead side during the last part of the backswing tends to make me hit down on the ball with the Driver too, with bad results.
