This video discusses how the hips move in the golf swing and also focus’s on how to move the hips faster in the golf swing to encourage a faster more athletic golf swing creating more clubhead speed.
The biggest problems with golfers is timing, sequencing, swinging too hard and generally struggling to find rhythm in their golf swings leading to mis hits when they try to hit the ball harder.
This video first discusses how the hips should move in the golf swing and once you understand how to move the hips correctly then you can start messing around trying to speed the move up.
You need to understand a few things first:
Weight pressure and weight transfer in the golf swing. The weight needs to be on the right hand side for a right handed golfer at the top of the backswing preferably in the heel to encourage a decent and correct hip rotation in the backswing. From this position you can now push pressure in the lead left foot into the start of the downswing also known as the transition.
To correctly apply pressure into the left leg on the downsiwng you need to understand that the hips move in a downward move in the transition which applies flexion into the left leg as you start the downswing.
From this position in the downswing you can start creating a hip rotation this means pulling the left hip back to trigger a rotation.
At impact all of the weight should now be located in the left heel and the right toe.
This will help you stay balanced throughout your golf swing.
Now you know everything its time to speed this up. The biggest problem is when you get out of sequence you will naturally start to hit the golf ball with your arms and hands with are unreal able.
By rotating your hips correctly in your golf swing now means that you can create controlled speed in your golf swing but also introduce more clubhead speed in your golf swing meaning a faster controlled golf swing.
This is how to move the hips in the golf swing and also how to create more clubhead speed in your golf swing.
You can make these swing changes to your golf game as I see this on a daily basis so start making a better golf swing for yourselfs.
