TRANSITION IN THE DOWNSWING
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 тра 2023
- In this video I will be talking about the sequence of movements from the top of the backswing into the downswing. I get a lot of questions as to what feels you need to have and what movements start first so this video will give you some great insight as to what you should be thinking about.

Not sure what it is about your explanation style but nobody else on UA-cam comes close to the way you are able to communicate with your audience. The best. Keep up the great work!
I feel it’s his delivery. Clear, concise and to the point.
Yeah totally agree. I saw his release videos and he is best
Agree! He is an amazing teacher!
Non sense. Adam bazelgette, Michelle Low and Saguto are great references as well as JKM. If you really want a great reference watch Bobby Jones or Lee travino.
He knows his stuff and is a natural communicator with excellent articulation.
This is the third of these videos on which I’ve commented. I can’t explain how much more I’ve been enjoying the game since implementing your tips. I appreciate that your videos aren’t click bait and that you go into depth about the causes and effects of each swing flaw. Thanks.
Best Golf Swing Lessons I have found on UA-cam. Thx for providing them.
That was the best explanation of how to shift the weight during the transition and Great drill it's been a big problem for me. Thanks!!!! 🙂
just found JKM and can't get enough. good golf coaches communicate sodat the player hears a feel. his words and videos are extremely effective for me. just broke 80 for the first time so i check hin out before I play...everyday
Awsome!!
I really like your teaching. I have been looking for this for many years. Super
Thank you! At 43 I’m finally getting into the game of golf. I’ve watched so many UA-cam videos but your videos have by far been the most helpful.
Always a down to earth, easy to understand explanation of very important swing concepts. Well done.
Your lessons are THE best! Thank you! 🙏
Your instructions are simple/ clear and easy to follow
This is the key - getting the flow- of correct moves- syncronisation!! takes practice buy my goodness amazing results - I have never hit it like this in my life - combine this flow with the MOST IMPORTANT MOVEMENT IN THE GOLF SWING (how to practice it..) video and wow the results are amazing . Thanks Jonathan - I'm starting to swing it as good as you mate !!! love your work.
How good is this guy? Right?!! My favorite instruction site by far. The best instructors have total body position awareness that they use to illustrate both the correct and incorrect positions in the swing. Kim is the best at this. He’s like a Gumby figurine. 😊 Guess I just dated myself! If I had half his body awareness, I wouldn’t need lessons! 😅
very clear instructions with a nice fluid drill to start to understand and feel the movement. thank you!
Great video Jonathan, thank you. This is something I’m really working on right now! I believe my hip is getting ahead of my shoulder and knee. This video was helpful in visualizing the more balanced/complete weight shift and rotation.
This guy has literally changed my golf game. I study him daily. Just started golfing 5 months ago and I’m 37. He’s the best
🙏
Jonathan, absolutely great video and and simple drill to have the correct positions and feels at impact! Keep up the great work. Much appreciated. 👍😎🚴♂️⛹️♀️🤸♂️
Great detail well explained. Very informative.
Thanks 🙏🏻
… excellent explanation.
I think the challenge (at least with me) is KEEPING THE HEAD STILL while shifting the left shoulder and knee ahead of where it is at setup.
Head movement is a killer in the golf swing.
I used to have a big issue with my head coming off the ball during the backswing. For me what helped was "keeping the eye on the ball"... not just looking at it but literally staying "on the ball" w my head and feeling like everything moves but the head!!! Seems simple but give it a try ...
Thanks for this. This is my biggest issue right now so this will definitely help me
Great lesson. Thank you.
Very important information video. First time I have seen this explained so clearly. And, what can happen if your starting transition incorrectly. Loved the video.
Great video, thanks again!
Muy buena lección de swing. Muchas gracias Jonathan.
Can you cover the difference in transition between iron and driver? In hitting up on the ball, with a wider stance, I often get myself hanging back. Where with a more narrow stance hitting irons I have a solid transition.
You are really best !
Thanks, very useful.
good job!!!
Single digit hcp and wow your explanation is great ... down to scratch 😊 hopefully
thanks， it does help ！
I see your shoulder and knee move to the left at the transition, but your head as well.
Is it ok to move my head to the left as well at the transition and how much?
Your explanation on your lesson is great! Thank you!
Another great informative video! Can we please ask for another chipping video? Last one was great!
Now i get it
That exercise at the end looks like a pretty good dance move
Maybe a bit of music and the body will flow to the rhythm
Cheers and many thanks
Hey Jonathan, great explanation. Should i have this feeling with driver also? Thanks
I believe this is one of
the best videos that I have seen so far. My understanding is weight shift is a must. Now, what is your opinion if I keep my weigth more on the leading side for irons (7 to 9 including wedges) instead of moving back and forth. Thank you
great new dance move 😄
haha it can definitely feel like it
Hi Jonathan, thanks for the explanation here which has drastically improved my irons. However for the driver, this transition is causing me a lot of problems. Moving the hips laterally while keeping the head back makes hip rotation feel "stuck" and hard to square the clubface. Thoughts on this? Thanks!
Great instructions as always. What is not clear to me when you say "...the entire structure moves toward the target.." would that bring the head also forward (outside of the circle, if you draw a circle around the head at address)? , which makes keeping the head behind the ball at impact difficult? maybe the tilt would bring the head back behind from the tilt at impact?
I hope you get millions of off youtube for these videos lol. thank you for these
Hi , I’m interested in your thoughts on this teaching theory : many teachers talk about getting the wet mop lag feeling in the hands but I believe anyone can get that feeling in transition from the top which is incorrect. It is next to impossible to keep that feeling in the hands through impact if you feel for it at the top, it’s gone by halfway down . The trick is to hold the shoulder for a fraction then when the hands drop to about parallel with the ground and the arms reconnect to the half swing the wet mop feeling in the hands is then detected due to the torso now fully being powered by the turning back of the left hip.
I believe that “preached” feeling of lag (wet mop) is ruining swings as it’s easy to feel it incorrectly (eg. with an armsy swing and a loose grip sensing the club head’s weight at change of direction ) whereas the focus should be dropping the arms (passing the baton) back to the half swing plane then finding the lag sensation is not a conjured up thing it’s just there due to force on the hands being turned the body holding a club. (Once the baton is passed the sprinter takes off)
To put it simply the top of the swing back down to the half swing (parallel) is nothing more than a club slotting momentum run up to when power actually kicks in so if you are feeling lag in that area you have thrown your timing.
Is this for both irons and driver??
You are excellent.
But, we need more instruction on timing. EG., When does the turn start and how to sync it with the downward movement.
Thank you,
Duane
What about when hitting driver? I know the upper body is supposed to stay more behind the ball what driver to hit up. Would the shoulder and knee still move forward in transition?
the lead shoulder would not move towards the target as much because your upper body will stay behind the lower body more but your weight will still shift a bit to the lead side
If the shoulder and knees are slightly ahead during the start of transition, how does the head remain at the same position laterally without tilt?
Exactly. He avoided your question which I think is very important. To me, the hard part of transition isn’t getting forward left, that’s easy. It’s doing it without screwing up the spine angle/head position.
It doesn't. This concept of the head being a perfect rotary centerpoint that never ever moves in the swing has really screwed things up for a lot of amateurs.
On the transition in the downswing, is the trail foot pushing off or is it just the legs moving? Thank you!
Pressure does feel like it pushes off
So whats the reason for loading into the back foot to begin with if youre just gonna transfer the weight to the front before initiating the downswing. I assume it wouldnt add power since the transfer is initiated and finished before the rotation and arm swing. Why not just leave majority of the weight on the front foot at address and then throughout the swing?
It's like throwing a football weight shift, when QBs get stuck on the back foot they underthrow, and if they only stayed on front foot there'd be no power
Maybe hip rotation will not be as good
Who knows
curious how long is too long of a backswing, and what is an optimal backswing length?
Anywhere between Daly and Rahm
@@wrxjunki 🤣
Is the downswing the same for irons and drivers?
Sequence is the same but head position is different because set up is different
@@JKMGolf I see, thank you! I will try your teachings down at the next practice session! I wish you taught in Asia xD
I want ‘flowy.’
I think: back to the target, back towards the target, turn through to the target
Need to be careful doing this because it can turn into a hip slide causing all sort of issues including getting stuck. The principals of what he is explaining is on point though.
