you guys are so knowledgeable and the way you describe and demonstrate the required movements and positions that we need to play good golf is mind blowing tks for sharing sharing your knowledge with all of us
Thank you for those kind words 🙏🏻 we have the best job in world to have an objective view at what all these great players actually do in their swings. It’s awesome to be able to share it 👊🤓
another insightful video - TY VM - this is exactly how little kids develop their swings - (chip shots, pitches) and as they develop and for those that continue to play at a higher level maintain that trail side hit!
As a self taught golfer who has shot a 66, I have to acknowledge that AMG has been tremendously helpful in my golf journey of the last 4 years. Thank you, guys! You teach the facts of fantastic golf. “A reason to rotate” is my favorite quote from you. Keep up the wonderful work.
Fantastic video! Thank you so much. A huge light bulb has gone off as to how I see the body at impact - and how to get there. Hands on the trail side - wow - you have not finished the downswing yet until after impact - and unloading to 4 o'clock. One question - is it right to think that the side bend is need to reach the ball since your body has moved forward a few inches and rotated 40-45 degrees?
Thanks so much! Another great insight about the armswing myth and impacting infront of the trail hip. In other videos you guys have spoken about seeing to much leadarm adduction. How can my leadarm abduct in the downswing when my trailarm solely lowers and doesn't moves out to the ball? Or retracts the lead shoulder blade in the downswing? I can't wrap my mind around that. Would love to see both arms/ shoulder blades in your FOR perspective moving through the hole swing! All the best!!
Great question and one we covered last night in our online membership call. To wrap your head around it, you've got to think in 3D and keep in mind the points that make up that angle - C7 vert, shoulder, and elbow. At the top, your elbow is X distance away from your C7. If you just lower your trail arm/hands down to your side - did that distance from your lead elbow to C7 grow or shrink? 😉
Ahh, okay. I'd say the distance increases. In a previous video you showed that angel from above/in the transverse plane, with the lead arm infront or even outside the lead shoulder. But with shoulder extension in consideration it totally makes sense. Thank you for clarifying!! One last thing: Are the shoulder blades an exception and don't reverse their motion during the downswing? So the lead shoulder blade staying in protraction to possibly allow a more open chest with neutral shoulders or should it retract to get the hands more in front? Thanks a lot!!!
@@Jonzge98 You got it! That angle would increase. When we made that video back then, I didn't explain it well enough from the 3D perspective. You're also spot on with the shoulder protraction/retraction. Post impact is when they start to switch.
Perfect, thank you so much for your answers and the knowledge that you share!! I'm a physio student and can't afford lessons, so the imput from you guy's helped me a lot! Probably more than a local pro could have and certainly more then other "feel based" YT channels. All the best Jonathan
Great video guys. Gets me thinking of another one you did when Sean was in the full gears sensors and showed how the shoulder line is closed at impact but the torso and hips open up beneath it. To really ingrain that feeling, do you guys recommend trying to feel the lead side lat and core stretch while the shoulders, clavicle, thoracic spine area stays more closed?
@ you guys are the best. Always wondered about this and ended up drilling it at the range…I’d never felt so much space before! Made me realize how bad of a spinner I was!
Guys, great video as usual and questions abound on a subject that I have been all too familiar with. I will save a few for the coaches call. The one I do have right now is I have been working on less then full swings and have had a huge issue with hitting the shots heavy. I know when we’re setting up for the shorter swing weight moves to the front foot and we try to stay there during the swing. Is there still a shift forward from the top to get the shoulder further in front them where we started.?
There is but usually players do that through upper body rotation which shuts down lower body rotation. When that happens the trail hip stalls and the club bottoms out behind the ball 😬
Great content again, solving all the mysteries in the golf swing with cold hard facts. I would think the early recentering is a Must to avoid fat shots as well. Fat, thin...the worst shot for me were hozzel rockets which became a problem years ago. Even snapped the heads off several graphite shafted clubs, lol!
i have a question about the hips in the backswing. with the plane of glass on the butt, in the backswing does the right hip go back through that plane or does the left hip move away from it towards the ball?
HEY, I have a video idea that would help y’all too. Cameron Champ has one of the best geometric alignments at impact correct? We can agree on that. And I have a face on pic of him at impact with an iron, so what would it take for y’all to put that pic up on screen with y’all showing how his hands look so far forward but what is actually happening while the pic is there , y’all recreate this pic making it identical it would be hard but it would help so much
I’ve heard you guys talk about hitting from the trail side before. Couldn’t you just set up with every club with the ball positioned opposite the back foot? Then you’re already hitting off the trail side without having to shift your body weight forward?

Great question. I think that's something you may feel while walking through the motions, but probably not at faster speeds.

@@16pennynails yikes 😅
Yep, recentering is a big part of the process 👊
at the top of the swing, before downswing starts, how much pressure you want on the lead foot?
@@hansidelk6604 ~50%
As usual great string on good things put together.

@@dansapp6619 Both. In equal amounts. It’s the result of pivoting around the center of your pelvis 👍

Is the visualization of framing the ball different with the driver?
Just because the ball position is more forward 👍
WHen getting AMG member, is there more videos from you, other then you post here on youtube channel ?
The membership is 100% entirely comprised of videos we do NOT have here on UA-cam 👍
Amazing stuff as always. If you're driving your hands forward stop immediately it will take you years to break it
I hope millions of golfers see your post!
So it’s incorrect to ‘lead arm abduct & trail arm adduct’ on the downswing?
@@tsp423 what did we say to leave you with that impression?
@ Isn’t that what ‘wiping’ or ‘shoving’ the arms is?
@@tsp423 adducting 10 degrees is not the same as adducting 45+. You can still adduct and be miles away from the wipe move.

I’ve heard you guys talk about hitting from the trail side before.
Couldn’t you just set up with every club with the ball positioned opposite the back foot? Then you’re already hitting off the trail side without having to shift your body weight forward?
you could if the goal was to hit it REALLY low and REALLY short.😉
@ 😂 You literally just described my swing
