This instruction is So Great !! I’ve seen descriptions of ground forces before but Your video is clear and direct. It was engaging and I found myself actually absorbing your info and I’m better for it ! Great channel !
The best teaching on how to use the ground force. Very clear instructions, thank you. I am taking lessons from a pro here in Cincinnati weekly for over 6 months, and the man, cannot articulate how to get me to do the ground force, except from belittling, hollering , rolling his eyes, smartly commenting how many times more before I can understand. I finally came up to him, took off my gloves, told him my piece. Thank you again for a clear and doable instructions
Great video. One question I was told to press into the ground with my right foot kinda like screw it clockwise on backswing this helps my knees to remain flexed and stop my left knee buckling . Dan Whittaker corkscrew video
When we apply a force into the ground in a rotational direction, that is called torque. That’s a great feeling to have in the downswing to help with lower body rotation. And actually the same topic I just posted about on my Instagram page (@tda_golf) last week 👍🏼
Subscribed. I have been working on ground force reaction and am getting closer. My pro told me that I was missing the 2nd part of the swing which is the part where I sit down like Ben hogan. The back swing and forward swing are fine. But I have been looking for an explanation of this second part. Your video helps alot
I have been swinging completely with my upper body and just taking the lower body along for the ride. Your in-depth explanation of feet, knees, hips in the backswing to transition to downswing and through was super helpful. In just a few practice swings it feels powerful and compact. Thumbs up and subscribed!
Enjoyed how you repeated the move in segments over and over. The visual was much more helpful that a bunch of words. Less words and more demonstration always keeps my attention.
One of the best explanations I have seen...Do you use a foot to push back into the right back heel, if so which one? Or would you suggest to use the glutes to turn into the back right heel?
Thanks! If you’re wanting to get into the trail heel in the backswing then you’ll use a combo of lead foot helping push pressure over to right side and the ball of trail foot helping push pressure towards the heel.
Good video. During the downswing if you do it properly you must feel that your right foot is turning backward (slippery ground drill) For the push off it seems that the trail leg is also active (jump drill ) thanks a lot bruno
Excellent summary of sequence. Question. No one ever seems to complete the ground to ball contact. Either ground sequence or ball contact, not both. So, I find when I get one thing right the other goes wrong. In your description, please show how to maintain spine angle and bottom of arch while pushing up on the lead leg. That is the point where I seem to "come out of it".
The biggest things to understand through impact are lower body rotation and upper body side bend. If you’re pushing the lead leg properly, it should be clearing your lead hip out of the way (rotation). Then, to stay in the shot and not “come out of it”, we need side bend on our trail side. This side bend is what keeps our upper body from popping up out of the shot. BUT, if you have not rotated well through the downswing, that side bend just turns into hanging back, and becomes fat shots or blocks/hooks. Great point, and I’ll try to make a video of that coming up 👍🏼
I hear ya. Hard to say why that is without seeing it in action. Many drills can be done to help overcome it as long as we know the whole story of your swing.
So everyone has been using the lawn mower pull analogy lately. However, your arms really don’t do that motion in the takeaway,only the legs. In that analogy your right elbow is flying , how about do that but with the arm swing rotation ,the correct way too.
You’re correct, we don’t swing the arms in that way. But as you said, it’s just an analogy to help players see and feel trail side extension in the backswing. It does help a lot of players get a better understanding. But if it doesn’t help you or other players, and if you or someone else has a specific question about the arms I’m happy to answer it. This video is not about the arms however.
Love that you’re explaining the kinesiology aspect. This video needs to be higher up in the UA-cam algorithm. Pure gold
Thanks! Appreciate it 🙏🏼
Best explanation on UA-cam yet, very detailed 👌
Thank you 🙏🏼 I appreciate that!
Very good explanation. I think you would enjoy Dr. Kwon's videos too to put it all together.
The clearest explanation of ground forces that I've seen so far. And I've watched a lot of videos. Thank you.
I appreciate that 🙏🏼 Happy to hear that!
excellent explanation
Thanks!
This instruction is So Great !!

Thank you!! 🙏🏼 👊🏼
OMG what a game changer. Been trying to do this myself for literally 2 hours. This explanation resulted in immediate results. 🎉THANK YOU
Awesome!! 👏🏼 👊🏼 🔥

Thanks man, appreciate it 🙏🏼 I’m glad you liked it and found it helpful!
Going to use those stretchy bands now to develop those muscles! Lucky that UA-cam suggested this video to me!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
FANTASTIC LESSON!!!!
Thank you! 🙏🏼
Thank you so much for the tutorials, it’s eye opening informations :)
Thanks for watching! Glad you like it.
Best drill I’ve seen to educate your muscles.
Great video! Very helpful thanks!
Thanks!!
Loved it thanks so much, superb demonstration and explanation on how to generate a powerful swing using hips and ground forces.
So grateful.
Awesome!! Thank you 🙏🏼 👊🏼
I am very happy to see more teachers talking about the importance of the hip rotation.
Yup, absolutely great detailed vid, thanks for posting!
Thank you! 👊🏼

Realy good in detail demonstration - I think I'm starting to understand what it means getting power from the ground - Thank U!!
You’re welcome! Glad you liked it!
This is a very good trainingvideo, not only a repetation of with a golfclub Thankyou From Stig In Sweden. ds hang in there...

Awesome! Glad to hear. The lower body is hugely important in the golf swing, when done properly of course. Thanks!
Excellent lesson.
Thanks! 🙏🏼
That was most useful. Thank you for making the video and sharing it on this platform.
Thanks! You’re welcome
Great explanation, thank you!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching 👊🏼

Glad to hear! That’s definitely what I go for. Thanks!
Great explanation mate, well done 👍
Thanks!
Very helpful!

Thank you for giving me the key to successfully keeping the ball hit through a full 18 hole round
🙌🏼 🙌🏼
best video on how to use legs
🙏🏼 🙏🏼
Excellent thank you!

For the push off it seems that the trail leg is also active (jump drill )
thanks a lot bruno
Thanks! Yeah what you’re explaining sounds fairly similar to what I’m showing here. 👌🏼
Great explanation
great advice
I'm all in.

Great video but I still struggle with that transition and clearing hips without much left hip depth on downswing…not easy to overcome

Awesome

for the love of god...hit one!

You must be "Kwonified" 😂
Haha I am. But these are definitely my own thoughts and feelings on the subject.
@@TDA_golf I have a session scheduled for Tuesday. Can't wait.
@@robsaxepga awesome!
K. Alright.
