How do you use the core of the body to transfer power to the trail hand in the golf swing? The same as in all other sports as you'll see!

I would love it if you could analyze Bruce Lee's 1 inch punch this way. He would send his opponents clear across the room with it.

Ya very core driven and very fast movement from his core

A few days ago I had a shot over a hazard of about 135 yards to the green that would have had me freaking out until recently. Not only did I clear the hazard my shot finished pin high and I give all the credit to what has been shown in these videos by Chuck. Loved the feeling in my abs on my downswing and was barely conscious of the club moving into sweet contact with my ball which was on a slightly tricky downhill lie too

Chuck this stuff is awesome! Keep it coming. Just a quick note on the tennis forehand you showed: note that the palm remains pointing down through contact, with the racket strings pointing down in the backswing until it "turns over" much like the golf swing. Just adding to your analysis as I am tennis teaching professional and wanted to share how happy I am to finally see someone show how similar the forehand is to the golf swing. I have preached that for years to my golf buddies. Now the part that I am going to need to work on is the tendency to shut the face too quickly and pull or hook sometimes. I started with the right hand only putting last night. Question: I switched to left hand low after watching one of your videos a few years ago. It seems like you prefer the traditional putting stroke now. I will make the switch back based on your guidance. Again. THANK YOU!!!!

Chuck, do you still contract your glutes at impact here? And do you only swing until impact then let the club pull you to the finish? Or is that only lead side dominant swing stuff only? Thanks!

Hi Mike, check out the videos on Core Activation as I get more in depth on these topics.

I went back and re-reviewed the Takeaway and found great value in that "Glass Wall" in front of the lead shoulder ... THAT got my hands back into a better position in the takeaway (and beyond). Even in the putting stroke (while no rotation - but if I feel that energy of the lead shoulder just starting to move down the Glass Wall - that intention really gets my hands moving) and the chipping stoke - if I keep that Glass Wall in mind ... it is really helpful. Is there a balance or connection between the Glass Wall and Core Rotation? This material is OUTSTANDING - been immersed in the practice and the instruction ... THANK YOU!

Hi Steven, if you rotate the core properly to load up the trail side, the lead arm will naturally work down that wall. It's only when the lead side gets active that that wall gets broken. It's ok to use the lead hand in the swing and balance them out, but Tiger is very much trail hand dominant and the closer you want to get to his model the less lead side you can use.

I think the serve is much closer to a swing than a forehand. Generates more power. Look at Andy Roddick for example. Wrist goes through range of motion and arm passes a relatively still body.

Chuck, you've discovered Pilates! It's a lot about the core, which not only provides the power-house to accelerate the arms and the club, but also the stable base from which to exert all that power. And the breath is involved, breathing out when engaging the core before releasing the power. Sadly, engaging the abdominals and using the breath is rarely talked about in discussing the golf swing, but it is vital.

Agreed 100%, it's a difficult thing to teach and learn, but we're making inroads with it. I did Pilates about 15 years ago and never felt more stable and under control than when I did it with a good instructor.
