Welcome the RotarySwing Community!

Welcome the RotarySwing Community! For future reference, you can always access this by simply going to https://rotaryswing.com/feed/ The Facebook group has been awesome and grown like crazy and it's been awesome how helpful everyone has been on there. But, of course, not all our members are on FB, so we created this new community section on the site so everyone can get help with their swings, ask questions and meet new fellow RST'ers! Please feel free to ask any questions down below!

This is a great move. FB can get cluttered and I’m sure having to keep up with the admin duties on the FB page can get tiresome.
The video doesn’t play, it just loads up a still image. Also, the video isn’t appearing under ‘latest golf instruction videos”
This is great -- thanks Chuck!
Great video .. love the light feeling idea!
Great video. Recognizing tension in different areas of the body is very important. Feeling relaxed and light is the key. It also keeps you from injury as well, to an extent. The ultimate goal of RST.
How much does lead leg calf strength play into speed generation? The reason I ask is because I have some lead leg calf atrophy (due do a past Achilles tendon rupture) and so my push-off force is much lower now. How vital is lead-leg vertical force in swing speed generation? Thank you!
Its not really and can easily be worked around. Tiger works on getting back to his heel very quickly

Its actually pretty easy to generate that force when jumping
Looks great Chuck. This should be a big improvement over the FB group.
Hi Chuck : Great idea with his Community site! In terms of the weight shift to the left side, there is a tendency of mine when I think " weight to the left side" to 1) Not complete my backswing 2) sway too much trying to get back to the left side. Any thoughts on how to fully complete the backswing when you are thinking shift when left arm is parallel and not swaying in an attempt to shift weight to left side? Thanks so much for you insights. Greg
Remember, Chuck says that the left arm parallel point is when you should be STARTING to try and got that weight back over to the left, not before. Although that point will still come very quickly.
Tony Finau is one of the few who actually DOES start shifting at 9 o'clock but he also has an incredibly short backswing so he would need to otherwise he'd never get back to the left in time.
Awesome Video!!! Based on that information I am looking to get a pressure mat for my own feedback during practice. What product(s) at different price points (lower/higher) would you recommend to get a pressure mat that can be used individually during practice that can record similar information to see how to we are doing on the weight shift? Thank you in advance. David
The one by Boditrack is probably the best deal for the money that I have seen, but I haven't tested any in the lower price point in a long time.
Are you talking on this video. I have no volume.
Chuck, every time I see swings that include pressure plate visuals, it's always opposite from what we are viewing. The person in any such video would be facing the viewer but the pressure plate display is as if the player was facing away from the viewer. Why is that? If I'm viewing someones swing (let's say a right-handed player) whose swing goes to the left then finishes on the right, why wouldn't the pressure plate display show the back swing pressure on the left and the downswing pressure on the right? From a teaching perspective, wouldn't that make it easier to see and understand? Just a thought.
