Tell your boy to check his hip mobility& strength. Years of sciatica and piriformis solved by actually stretching and strengthening my hips in just 5 months.........not saying it will work for every human, just saying if ur dealing with lower back or knee issues to consider it. Was causing me serious knee issues as well. Keep swinging team
Apart from taking pressure off the back, which is important for a 70 years old like me, and it basically pre sets impact, took me a while to master with longer clubs and driver, but now confident with this set up
Thank you. This helps to clarify the hip bump. I was doing the hip bump but was not placing pressure on the inside of the trail foot. I now have the correct post and brace position to enable a good body turn. Cheers
Great. Finally someone explaining the reason behind the weight shift. Pity I can't make out what 'typical sign' you're trying to point out at 6:26. Because that position looks a lot like me.. is that the reverse spine issue?
Once again, excellent video! Lots of good content including proper way to bump the hips, how to rotate around the spine with a stable head, keeping pressure on the inside of the feet for stable posts, and how Jason Day has adopted this into his game. When you see someone do the hip bump and backswing chest coil correctly, but then see the left knee jut out past the front foot, and a loose leg that does not brace up and form a wall into and through impact is that mainly from making an incorrect lateral move, or are there other flaws at work? Would be interested to see Jason Day's new swing used as an example some more in the future if it fits into what you are talking about. (Also like when you use Adam Scott movements as examples in your videos). Thanks for sharing!
Finally a good description of the “bump”! It always looked like the left hip bumped back. Eye opening when you said it’s the right hip that bumps at an angle Now is there a “starter move “(kick) that starts the swing- puts motion into backswing?
Hey Coach, with wedges a hip bump is 70:30. Are you just maintaining the same weight 70:30 throughout the swing?Even for irons as well? Thanks so much!
This setup has helped me so much . Adam should the hip bump as explained here feel like you are about to sit at a 45 degrees angle back and to the left ?
Here’s the way I’ve recently started to deal with this. Imagine your playing football and you need to make a cut off your dominant side. That feeling of not letting your weight get over your ankle but staying centered is the feeling you want.
Question regarding the left/lead knee. I have a lead knee that tends to rotate inside the ball even with the hip bump. Is this just a flexibility thing? Or could it be an incorrect setup or pressure?
Have to be honest, notice most of the guys who play with a Closed Stance have serious Back issues, even on the PGA including Tiger Woods, Steep Angles with the club, or too Flat, and Over The Top,

A ton of pearls in this lessons. Adam is the best !
Fantastic coaching. The hip bump has helped me so much. Thank you Coach Porzak.
I would argue this is one of the best swing changes I’ve seen for a pro

Agreed, turn on the inside of trail leg to inside of front leg. I must have missed this explanation along the way.

Saw Adam in person.. he’s THE instructor of our day. Pay attention and give him your money.

Love this explanation. What are your thoughts on foot flare? I've always been told both need flared
This setup has helped me so much .

Great explanation here. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Coach! Would... the hip bump be needed for a 50 yardish pitch shots as well?
Yes, especially for those shots!
@PorzakGolf even for Chipping coach? Flop shots bunkers etc
Amazing lesson fp 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

That’s why we don’t preach doing it!
