    This is exactly the lesson I had with my regular coach this week. Belt buckle finishing point up and the closest thing to the target. It follows on from my 2nd GEARS session with your associate Joe at JD Golf Academy where the way you suggest doing pitch shots was how he wanted me to practice this move. It's also what Adam Young and Joe Mayo espouse as the way to hit pitch shots. Dump the club and push out of the ground. I've been to Zen GRF golf and they say the same things. You guys have some of the best content on YT.

    these good body concepts at impact are impossible to unsee and unlearn once you get them. helped me tremendously with my iron strikes. bagging the 3 iron confidently again.
    also now seeing swings from different angles, i understand how they *create the look* of being incredibly open at impact because of the camera angle, but in reality the hips are really only extremely open if you are made out of stretchy string cheese, they're not "facing the target" or anything like that at impact.

What's the difference? Or is it just a matter of degree? What am I missing? Thanks!

    • @AthleticMotionGolf
      @AthleticMotionGolf  5 місяців тому

      A lot of that reverse C came from knee drive that had the lead knee well outside the ankle. There was also a lot of hip and knee issues from that as well. Any good movement can be over/under down - your point about being a matter of degrees is a very important one 👏

      Not to speak for the fellas but speaking from an anatomy standpoint there's obviously extremes. That being said one sure fire way to screw your back is too much rotating while side bending. Spines primary function is to flex and extend so those motions aren't bad for your back unless you dont actually have those ranges from a mobility standpoint

    @johnatchley9754 5 місяців тому

    Mike and Shaun, I have seen that one way to work into the correct body driven movement you show is to think of swinging a 10 pound sledgehammer up and out towards the target. You have to start letting it move back and forth in increasing arcs, like a child on a swing, to build momentum with the arms just hanging like the chains or ropes of the swing. You have to turn the legs, hips and chest both going back and forward, not just swinging it with your arms. When you get it swinging back far enough that you are ready to heave it out toward the target, letting momentum take it up like the final height of the playground swing to get distance, your legs, hips, chest and shoulders will be, have to be, automatically in the position you show, with the arms extended straight out. You can’t swing and build momentum to heave the heavy sledgehammer any other way.

    Fantastic stuff, love you guys!
    Would love to see some info on how the arms sync up with this. I "feel" like I have dead arms and it leads to the left arm coming off the chest, and the wrists not being active enough - holding off the release. I'm "trying to feel" - the left arm externally rotating, the right elbow extending, the left wrist flexing. It feels like if I don't do those things, the energy in the body doesn't fully get through the ball. After seeing this I'm left wondering...do I need to feel any of that stuff? Am I just creating Mike's "bad" example (using the arms to throw the ball)

    Gentlemen, tremendous video. One of my biggest problems is that right knee coming way too forward in the downswing.I know you said your going to do a future video on that, but in the short term would a thought of leaving the right knee behind as your extending be a possible swing thought? My other question I have to make sure I am understanding this properly is in the process of extending upward does the golfer totally forget about his arms and hands and let the body mostly bring the club around to the finish?

    For anyone (me, especially) with back and lower back issues, that lifting pelvis during torsion is pain-inducing. Made me want to quit but retirement golf is important so I went to a swing that requires no lumbar "compression" and I now can play all I want, at a 6 handicap (6300 yd. 132 slope course), at 70 years young! Your advice is great for all those who don't have back problems. Thanks.

      Love to hear that you’re playing pain free now. But I think you’re confusing spinal compression with what we’re showing.

    makes me think the duck foot is helping the backswing but hurting my impact and ability to rotate fully to a finish position.

    How does one increase clubhead speed BUT what is the relationship between swing weight and clubhead speed? Say, a person swinging a driver with a swing weight at E-0 and 102 mph head speed vs a person swinging a driver with a swing weight of D-2 and 110 mph head speed. Would the result be similar length drives? Seems that the momentum calculation (mv) would represent the situation of hitting a golf ball, as opposed to the kinetic energy calculation (1/2m•v^2). I say this because whatever clubhead speed is generated by the point of contact that momentum is transferred to the ball. The momentum of a heavier clubhead is greater per mph, such that a slower clubhead speed with a heavier driver head does impart as much momentum to the ball as a faster moving but light clubhead. Has anyone done a study on this physical aspect of the swing and clubhead mass and shot distance (or ball speed) produced?

      @@billygraham5589 as a practical application, there is t a rule for swing weight clubhead speed. How a given player reacts is the wildcard in the equation. Also swing weight is not a good indicator for mass involved at impact as SW doesn’t tell you of the components.

    Watch the older players at the local club that are teeing off first thing in the morning and you see this lack of thoracic extension through the hit. However I know from experience that as we age our spines loose some of the mobility necessary to extend the spine

      @@AthleticMotionGolf Screening is good, but the post is generally obvious because there are a lot of traits. Dustin Johnson is rear post and he has a very strong grip, has more hip hinge, turns around his rear leg, his pressure moves to the target later, his hips are wide open at impact, he extends both arms parallel to ground on the through swing, and he uses the ground mostly horizontally. Rory has a more neutral grip, medium hip hinge, his hips are less open at impact, he extends both arms lower than Dustin and uses the ground rotationally and vertically. And from what I've seen your swings are similar to Rory's. A front post golfer has a weaker grip, more upright stance, pressure moves forward at P2, hips are even less open at impact, arms are extended 1-2' past impact, and uses the ground mostly vertically. There are clearly exceptions so I'd say the post is a starting point for explaining differences between different golf swings.
      I love your videos but the only basis that I hear for the golfers that you use in your examples is that they won a lot of money or majors. These people are freak athletes whose bodies can hold up under their extensive training regimens over many years. So it may not be reasonable to think everyone can move the way that they move or that everyone should swing the same way.
      In this video I don't see an explanation as to why Dustin and Rory have differences in their swings. Or your 3 other examples. Is it that you don't know how/why they are different or is it that it's beyond the scope of a video to provide this information?
      I'm not saying that you should adopt Mike Adams' approach, but it would be nice if you could explain why your examples are different so we could maximize the value of your great experience and technology.

      @@kenthustvedt7139 can you link me to the measured ground forces of Rory and DJ that support those descriptions?
      We have them both on real 3D and their data does not support the movements you described. But again, if you have links you could share I’d love to see the captures.
      We do not suggest movements that only fit, thin, hyper mobile players can do. That would be highly useless instruction. What do you feel we teach that falls into that category. We work with many tour players, but work with many many many more players between the ages of 50-70. They don’t seem to have an issue.
      I’ve heard all the guesses and opinions why those guys swing differently. But I haven’t anything more concrete than guesses or opinions. Which is fine btw. We prefer to lean on the data we’ve collected and trust our measurement tools to inform our instruction. It’s always up to the player to choose the path they want to go down. But if this is a discussion on the why or what’s measured, I’m sure you’ll agree that your descriptions will need to be supported by evidence as well, right?

    Pro's will start moving up with their lower body upwards to give them room to hit ball (because if they didn't do this they would hit the club into the ground). Am player uses his arms and lifts up to create the space..
