Dr. Kwon, you are giving away all our secrets.
Seriously, this this couple with any number of your previous videos provides as much as one needs.

[mllm]

This is fantastic! Thanks a lot for your videos! Greetings from Europe.

Thank you Dr. Kwon! Your knowledge and expertise is a blessing to the golf community!

Amazing knowledge, Thank you for letting me understand how the forces work in Golf swing!! I'm definitely going to replay this video a few times to understand a few things, one thing I'm getting out of your work is don't be stagnant, move, move, move in the right format to get the most out of my forces!! I'm loving the slight move on front foot to start the swing this has helped me to get into rhythm like never before so Thank you for that, I believe you call it a trigger, Awesome!

Dr Kwon, I am a amateur golfer with a handicap index of 12.9 hoping to become a single figure in near future. I have been exploring different swing styles in past two years. I think that I naturally have a bit of re-center motion ie having my back facing the target while moving forward towards the target in the early part of down swing. I hit the balls longer whenever I do that. My driving distance of around 200 yards in UK winter is considered long for my handicap. I am so happy to find your channel and your theories explain the science behind it. I am now more confident in developing that feeling and I am gaining extra 10 to 20 yards. Thank you very much!

However I have a couple of questions for you:
1), I am not that consistent hitting iron with this style as it is not easy for me to move my center of weight forward enough in order to hit down on the ball. It is shorter time frame for iron shot. I have to adapt to much narrow stance for irons in order to turn better and keep my weight not too much back. Any advice on this?

2) Would you please do some videos re grips and club face etc? Now I get the distance going, I would like to have more consistence on direction.

Many thanks in advance!

Please keep doing more videos Dr Kwon!

Dr. Kwon is a genius. Everything about the golf swing is made simple. I have adjusted all aspects even my grip to accommodate these swing kinetics. IMPROVEMENT? YES INDEED!!!

[andersdannstedt]

As an engineer it is really interesting to get a scientific explanation of how the forces act during the swing. The next question is how these forces, and torques, translate to club head speed. I hope you will come to this later. Until then, keep up the good work 👏

I love the stepping like Rhythm comment, make all the sense in what your teaching !! Perfect Ty!

[jedigunn]

Thank you, Kwon-Gyo-Su-Nym for sharing this great info.

[suemullinjer]

Enlightening! Makes so much sense! I am a big fan of yours.

[kevinsmith]

Dr Kwon, great stuff. Working at it for a few days now and will follow your drills to help finally get to the body swing and away from arms only.
Have you ever heard of or worked with JJ Rivet who does work on biomechanics for members of the European tour and also with David Leadbetter?

[bobflitton]

Very informative Dr kwon, if you understand what’s happening in your swing it seems it easier to perform it . Awesome

[richgrisham]

Thank you, Dr. Kwon. You can tell that you love to teach.

[thomasterpager]

Amazingly helpful to better understand important parts of the swing - it seems the angle of hip is very important ? If yes what are the limiting factors - when is it overdone!

[cmalc]

It's incredibly educational to see that the peak lead foot force is over 60% higher than the peak trail foot force. Intuition would wrongly suggest that pushing off the back foot would be strongest.

[qianliyang]

Thank you very much for your work, it's very precious to me.

[Dodgymansps]

Incredible information. Sincerely, thank you.

[mfarnworth]

would you do a short illustration on what most of us average golfers look like with our weak forces and torques? that would be helpful to compare and give insights. thanks

[seankim]

Dr. Kwon, how is 'active backswing' related to torque generation explained above in overall swing power generation?
