Weight Shift in the Golf Swing - Pt. 1

This is a PREVIEW of a PREMIUM video. To watch the entire video, click here.

Description

Using our Science and Motion (SAM) Balance Lab, we can pin point weight shift and weight distribution of golfers in real time. In this video, use the Balance Lab to show how simple it is to transfer weight for an increase in power of around 14% according to some research. The key is that weight shift is completely natural, and in fact, as you will see in the video, to NOT shift your weight will not only feel unnaturaly but leave you feeling powerless as well.

Video Practice Points
  • Casual golfers may give up weight transfer for simplicity, but they will sacrifice power in the swing
  • Swaying the whole body does transfer your weight, but is very hard to control
  • Transfer your weight by shifting onto the right leg, keeping the body still
  • Stance width 2" outside neutral allows for plenty of weight shift without moving off the ball

"I started playing at 70 years old, at the beginning I was scoring around 100 plus... Following the RST 5 Step System my scores are in the 80 to 86 range. I am out-hitting guys in their 40's and 50's, thanks to you and your system. My back or other muscles never ache, nor am I tired after 18 holes. I am so glad I found your technique and system."
