- I get asked all the time, "How do I rotate early in my downswing without spinning out?". We've got the answer!
🔑🌪️ Milo's 5 KEYS to a Rotational Golf Swing: milolinesgolf....
Well, hopefully this video will shed some light on what I like to see happen. The belt buckle can be a great indicator of what is going on in the golf swing, especially in transition with the hips. Does the belt buckle move up, level, or down? Does it move away from the ball, stay the same distance, or move closer? These are questions we cover in this video, and if you are an Anthony Kim fan, we've got you covered! We also introduce an effective drill and test you can do at home or on the driving range to help train this key movement for proper hip rotation in golf swing. I hope you enjoy!

Just a quick thank you! My golf is getting so much better thanks to you! Hitting some amazing driver and 3 woods which were my real problem areas. So effortless and fun! My handicap will start to plummet as it’s getting so consistent now! Thank you Milo you’re the best! O’le! 😃👍🏼👏
Great to hear Hilda!
Thanks. This is one of my favourite tips/ videos
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching Gerard.
More of these videos! I’m someone who struggles with early extension and this has helped so much!
You got it!
I've watched most of the youtube based golf instructors and tried bits and pieces of all their drills and lessons. Without a doubt, I've improved the most from Milo's instruction. It's so important to find a teacher/coach that gives you the thoughts or feelings that trigger your brain to understand the movements. Strangely, one of the things that really clicked in my brain was watching Milo hitting the ball from the front view in his intro video. I've played these back over and over - lol. Watching from that angle really triggered the feeling in my brain and muscles. I've had the best range sessions and on course performance that I've had in years after watching his content and applying the thoughts, feelings, and drills from his video. Absolute gold for me Milo. I feel like I'm cheating getting this instruction for free. I come to Arizona a few times each year so I promise I'll see if you're free for a lesson next time I'm out. :)
Great to hear Richard! The target side view is an excellent angle. I'll be sure to throw in a video soon using that. Look forward to maybe meeting you down the line here in AZ, otherwise we're always here to help on my online academy at milolinesgolf.com!
This video is gold. I've really struggled with this move. One thought that really helped me get this is to try to get my hands as low as possible through the impact zone - everything else fell into place when I kept this thought.
Handle raising can be problematic, yes! Moving better can help with handle returning to a better space.
@@MiloLinesGolf more than gold! Platinum! Very useful the use of the stick, to understand how to rotate and when!
Great drill to help with the “down and around.” Thanks for doing and thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
i like it, i tend to EE and do ole' so i.m always working on it.
Many golfers do, thanks Steve.
Super good drill! I love the visual feedback of seeing where the belt buckle turns and leads the swing
Additional benefit is the shoulders turn on plane if you tend to be too flat like me.
Very good! Thanks Dan
Would like to hear the next step after this. Seems like most players, i.e. Scott, Koepka, Finau, Thomas have a straight left leg at impact. The feeling of belt buckle down and around is fine but to avoid fat shots and low launching shots seems like the next feel has to be either straighten the left leg or thrust the pelvis towards target/left of target. Very few modern players have a bent left leg at impact and that vertical force has to be put into the ground early, by left arm parallel, so feeling belt buckle down and around as the only feel won’t solve the vertical force/posting on lead leg so I’d like to hear your thoughts on lead side extension. Thanks.
I was going to ask exactly same ? when I saw yours. If you watch milo, by impact, there a straightening of the left leg that is up, back and around. The timing of that straightening move is a mystery to me. There must some amount of turning the corner with the hips before the straightening happens
Ryan and Dennis some answers to that timing are in this video. ua-cam.com/video/y7dNJK9jYAM/v-deo.html
Love this idea, for some reason learning this works great if your hitting from a downhill lie. Staying down is mandatory
Can be, yes.
This works very, very well, (alignment stick through belt loop). Whatever income Milo generates from views isn’t enough in my opinion for free lessons like this one. I kept casting from the top and it wasn’t until I watched this, went to the range with my alignment sticks and video taped my swing. The down and around belt buckle move shallowed my shaft completely. Before I was semi spinning my hips altering my spine angle. Scary as I don’t know how much more time I would have wasted trying to fix it.
Glad it helped Billy, and thanks for following along!
Iv struggling for years but iv never heard this one but it seam vary good easily do and remember with little time do it nice one
Thanks Steve!
May be the best golf lesson on the net. :) Alan
Thank you Alan, we thought this was a good one. Will be doing more on this subject soon!
Thanks this is the drill I’ve been looking for helps with balance also.
Great to hear!
Great video do you have the same swing thought with a driver? Low left hip and around?
Somewhat
Have you seen the titleist performance institute’s video on pelvic tilt? Found that very counterintuitive…. But have had some success playing around with it. Not what I’d have guessed happened in good golf swings
“Oh yeahhh” and then quick cut to the intro at 0:07 haha
😂
I need to do this.
You got this.
Just realized why I was hitting my irons on the toe yesterday. Golf problem 137596 subset J
Time to find the center of the face again! 🔥
Thanks, I thought it was subset H
Click the sticks before you make impact with the ball and you're 80% of the way there. The other 20% comes after 10,000,000 reps. Got It 💪
MM and your channel has helped me a lot! Recently MM posted a video of the importance of the right inner heel (right handed player) in the backswing and transition. I was using that tip with your tip in this video and it felt really good, I had a aha moment. I struggle the most with the first part of my transition. My question is where do u feel the first point of pressure in the left foot as u transition? In relation to what your talking about in this video. 17 to 13.5 handicap in approximately 9 months of binge watching your guys videos thanks again.
Pressure first goes to ball of left foot and then circles to heel.
Love the videos. So informative. This makes a lot a sense. However, I find myself hitting fat shots when I do this. Any advice?
Thanks George, I would need to see your swing to give you the best advice, but chances are you are unloading the club in the downswing. Have you checked out my online academy? milolinesgolf.com
Missed opportunity here to make Henry dress up as a cowboy with a giant belt buckle. Lol
Good stuff as usual.
Next time! 😆
this is the one thing holding back my progress went from shooting low to mid 70's back to spraying all over the place within a week. ive tried everything to stay in posture, with no success.
Keep in mind how the club is moving in space can play a part. You may be needing to extend in order to match up with your current pattern.
Thank you, gents
This is important
One of my favorite videos here! Thanks for watching Paul
Milo, theoretically we want the hips to be as open as possible at impact, correct? When first starting that stick drill where you click the stick behind you about where would you put the stick that your trying to hit, about behind your left hip?
I set it in the ground about 2 feet outside my trail foot in a place where if my hips were open 45 the stick in the belt would touch
Milo. I follow your videos and you are one of the very few instructors who have the science aspect of instruction accurate. One area in which I think your analysis may see an area of helpful improvement would be if you did some analysis of the swing perpendicular to the actual forward swing plane as the club goes through impact. I think the ground level face on camera angle is very revealing and common. In some ways it is deceptive. If the camera angle is taken from above and in front of the player so that it is perpendicular to the plane in which the shaft is travelling in the arc through impact, I think it would be most revealing. For example, how much are your hands leading the shaft at impact. I would suggest that this would reveal the actual lead is much more than shown in the face on view. But, this would reveal more accurately how much the hands on their arc are leading the clubhead on it arc, on the arc it is actually travelling. Please give it some thought. Thank you for your helpful and clear analysis and instruction.
Thanks Harry, will definitely give it some thought!
Dear Mile, this move was another missing link to my golfswing. i just did that, low left hip in the downswing and my attack angle and dynamic loft dropped alot. I had all the data monitored via trackman. I didnt spin out, whats kinda weird cause i do turn more...golf is really weird. :-)
This is one of my favorite videos Henry and I have put together. Glad you enjoyed!
Another phenomenal video guys! Thank you 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it!
How would you go about feeling like you're going to chunk the ball doing this?
I would have to see your swing to offer the best feedback, but many who struggle with chunking when looking to flex and lower are powering too hard out of the top with hands and arms, therefore sequencing the motion incorrectly.
When Milo was using his finger for the demonstration, in the background my children started laughing. Now I know why.
Oh boy 😆
could this be applied to driver as well?
Sure thing
isn't depth of the hands a key issue here? in that I mean coming in steep requires the golfer to stand up to shallow the club? i.e: if you're hands are not deep enough, the belt down and around will still throw it over the top right?
Not the hands necessarily deep, but the club head returning behind the pivot. This is why wrist conditions have to align.
What about for driver?
Similar, a little more extension through the strike depending on trajectory and tee height. Same feel in transition though would be best.
@@MiloLinesGolf Thanks Milo!
Moe Norman went down into his legs. He called it buckle, sit, slide & bump
Love it Greg.
i think about hips down
Similar, yes.
@@MiloLinesGolf thanks milo I’ve been struggling with toe strikes with the irons a lot. My shot is a strong draw. In to out path with a few degree closed face. Will a centre strike make the ball go straighter or less draw than when a toe strike now ? I’ve been even hitting on the toe outside the grooves.
God I wish Ed was in this video while you were pointing your finger out off of your belt buckle! You woulda had to have like 10 takes to get him to not say something or just start laughing
haha
