I would appreciate your viewpoint on this: I work at a facility whereby I have.
I would appreciate your viewpoint on this: I work at a facility whereby I have access to a (trackman) simulator. While hitting balls the other day, our instructor came in and we got into a discussion about weight shift and release. His philosophy was that on the downswing (I'm left-handed) that I should be pushing into the ground with my rear leg and keep the weight on that rear leg as I bring the club parallel to the ground then release the club and let it snap through the hitting area. The weight of swinging club would then shift my weight to the middle of my stance (i.e. the hitting area) then onward to my front leg for the finish. Now, perhaps I didn't completely understand his philosophy, but this scenario seems to counter Rotary's teaching of getting your weight onto the front leg as you approach the hitting/release area. He said that this technique forces you to release with your hands which it does seem to do. I realize that you don't criticize other "methods" which I appreciate. Your "technical/mechanical" view on this would be very much appreciated. By the way, Merry Christmas to the entire staff of Rotary Swing. Yes, I'm entering this on Christmas day. Guess I'm just dedicated to getting better.
