Late to this video, WISH I WASNT! Damn, I’ve never seen anyone frame that lead pelvis moving “faster” than your lead leg/knee, I’ve tried everything from trail leg focus, that “lead knee move” everyone loves to pitch, bumping, etc, I couldn’t consistently get those hips open like I wanted/knew I was capable of. Just worked 2 range sessions with that Lead Pelvis concept + Heel to Target trigger, Milo no bullshit- finally saw the swing I’ve been trying to build for 2 years, saw flashes of, but this was the move for me that every swing woods to wedges was repeated. Thank you! Sincerely.
Glad it was helpful, thanks Scott!
After 3 months of working tirelessly to learn how to clear my hips I had failed until I watched this video. I really don't know how to thank you. You explained the logic behind it and it simply unlocked my swing. It all makes sense now.. Thank you.
You should check out my new site milolinesgolf.com
Ok, I've had a couple of days to work on this and I find this is the whole key to getting all your other transition stuff to work. I loved the idea of how you explain transition but just couldn't execute it, despite weeks of trying. Wasn't bracing against lead leg at all, despite trying to move lead knee round etc. This one lead heel move idea has - literally - made it all fall into place. Brilliant, thanks again for posting Milo!
Best golf instruction on the internet!!
Thank you Anibal!
Boom, this really improved my Driver consistency! I love searching for golf tips. Most concepts I understand but are tough to implement on the range. However, this tip was a vaccine for my swing!
Great to hear! Thanks Matt!
Such good info. Signed in just to like. Steadily working through all your previous vids. Gold. Thanks for posting, great to see you smash it, too!
Top tip to help open up the pelvis.Moving the heel to the target and planting foot internally rotates hip and opens the pelvic to target. So easy to execute. Many thanks
Thanks for sharing Enrique!
Never heard this before another great video and easy to practice in the house during the winter
The replant starts before the backswing is completed. Another great video as always!
Yes! Thank you!
Milo,
Thanks for your videos.
I have found this move works for me if I am aware I have to initially drive my lead knee left, and then around further left, almost in a small arc. My force or weight gets on my left foot instantly when I do this.
Simultaneously, I restrict the leftward movement of my left shoulder, it feels for just an instant, and the swing seems to sequence its self from there.
Circling the knee ;) Thanks for sharing Charles.
Milo, great intro music, gets me pumped to smash it
Another of my nephews creations!
Great analysis. I also think of keeping weight in backswing concentrated on the inside of my back foot in order to allow me to replant the front foot. 👍
Yay!! Milo is Back!
This video has been extremely helpful. Focusing on this, my irons have improved significantly. I’m getting good divots and getting a lot more distance. For some reason, I’m not getting anything with the driver.
very good close up detail on the front leg.
Thanks Steve!
Great peace of information Milo going to learn that dance move. I'm
Great drill
Thanks Helen
THE PERFECT TOPIC
Great information is always thank you for the video.
@GolfleticsI I sure did see it ... thanks or demonstrating what you preach ... more importantly though the club and hands remain pretty high up even after you re-plant ... a good tip to prioritize when working on flexibility ... thanks for sharing!!
Idea for future video. Like to hear your thoughts on the muscle groups or feelings powering the downswing; is it a pull from the left side, left lats and abs? Or something else? I'm sure most of the over the toppers feel most from the dominant right side.
This is killer info - Milo when you're drilling this are you more focused on the pelvis move or the foot action? I assume you could go either way and one takes care of the other.
It depends on the individual.
I would like to see how you improve the pivot action with a few average golfers. Maybe some of your Zoom clients would let you share.
You should see it. ..😊👍
Nice 1 Champ ! 👏👏👏🥇🇨🇦
Thanks 👍
Nice. Something I need to work on. Possibly why I tend to have too much pressure stay in my trail foot late?
Excellent
Kenny Perry the PGA tour pro did that too
brilliant
Thanks!
Great Video Milo..
Do you pull the club with the left from the top of the backswing for speed
That is a very tricky move to get the pelvis moving faster than the left knee! And that causes hip to go internal and left foot to move toward target. You can do many more vids on things surrounding this move. You did one in Dec 2019 on moving the upper and lower centers where the move left is caused by the upper center moving forward of the lower center when weight is transferred. Would this upper center move relate to the the inward rotation in the left hip? Great vid!
trail foot with the driver instruction? Thanks for this nugget of knowledge...
Classic. Does the pressure go into lead toe first then back to heel?
@@jimthomas1759 yes
Hey Milo! Is that move designed to keep you from spinning out? I feel like I rotate well but get ahead of the clubhead leaving the face open. After watching this I think my knee and toe turn more out instead of heel getting towards the target. Haven't heard this concept before but makes sense.
Would this move enhance lateral forces and relieve back strain?
if you replant the heel earlier in the downswing while the shoulder still winding which you should then your heel should go toward the target.
Correct
That really helps
Wow that ball was BEAT ON!! I have a hard time completing my backswing with driver only ....its wierd kinda mental thing..like I'm not gonna get to the ball almost like anxiety..only driver though..ever heard on seen that ?
Christopher yes
when I watch myself on slow motion video, my lead ( left ) leg is bowed outward, not yet straight even after impact.......I 'am rotating my body thru , however my timing must be off and I can't seem to find the correct feel ..this is creating mostly very weak shots.......any tips to help?...thanks
I'm pretty good at dancing but suck at golf. Regardless, it almost seems like on the backswing the trail hip moves a bit closer to the target than it was at address then, in the transition, that new position of the trail hip establishes itself as the "starting point" of the downswing rotation (i.e. the trail hip NEVER moves back). That's how the body gets into a position slightly forward of where it started. Just my view.
A little movement off the ball can be a good thing, but typically re-centering and having the trail hip move back towards the target is a recipe for better low point control.
Spot on Norman
For older golfers, this is a setup for hip injury. Rapidly opening the hips against an internally-rotated hip will hurt unless the foot spins open. It may mean less power but your golf years will be many!
Your content is great Milo..... u gotta make sure you don't put any old crap out there just for the sake of getting content out.... quality not quantity is always king. Maybe some specific drills for specific problems that u see...... maybe take ideas from the online lessons u do.
Curious as to why? One would think that a more open foot would allow more rotation- thank you!
It’s an indication of proper sequencing. The foot will spin open later in the swing.
Milo, Have you studied a lot of Kelvin Miyahira's work because a lot of what you teach lines up with his information.
John Hue many people have told me that but to be honest I hadn’t heard of him until I was told our philosophies overlap. My ideas on how to swing a club mainly come from Ted Williams and other great hitters from baseball.
If the foot spins out like in the incorrect example, does that tend to push pressure back to the trail foot or make it more difficult to get pressure forward?
JD Stubbs it makes it hard to get pressure forward.
There's a reason for this! We need this action in order to leverage our upper body against that lead hip. Just like a baseball batter or pitcher, until they plant that front foot and leverage against it, they can't actually start the delivery of the bat or throw. The swing or throw actually begins it's forward motion once that front foot starts to deliver its backward force. It also dictates where the release point in the golf swing is.
If you don't leverage against the lead leg/hip your swing has no actual direction or release point and you end up trying to push the club quickly toward nowhere.
The more I think about this the more I think it may be the most important aspect of imparting power into the golf swing. Without leverage against the front foot true power is impossible.
I made a video about this but at the time I didn't realize just how important leveraging against the front hip was. At the time I thought it was axiomatic but since then I've watched people and realize they're not doing it. Maybe you'll think it's interesting ... th-cam.com/video/BF4P7RL3eM0/w-d-xo.html
I find it interesting that people confuse winding up with the actual act of swinging forward. When you look closely at the actual act of swinging forward and how and when that begins it's very different from what people think.
Does the left leg straighten because you turn your hips or do your hips turn because you straighten your left leg?
The leg extends or loses flex as we clear through the shot and extend into finish. Doesn't necessarily straighten or lock out for everyone though. Here's another video on this: th-cam.com/video/7EcXddwJaDE/w-d-xo.html ...If I can ever be of further help to you in learning to Swing Like an Athlete, please do check out my website at milolinesgolf.com for in-person or online lessons, golf schools, or to become a member of my Online Academy.
Hey Milo. If you’re doing it the wrong way like you demonstrated, and pressure stays back, and you’re trying to rotate, could that hurt the lower back?
Maybe.
Is this the same as iron?
Milo, the more I've watched your stuff the more it seems the golf swing is like... 70% upper body and the arms are left to kind of just do their thing (to shallow, fall in the slot, etc). That is assuming your backswing is in competent positions (no hip slide, etc). Would you agree with that assessment?
I’d say it’s mostly how you move your middle with good structure in the arms and wrists for sure
@@MiloLinesGolf Milo - can you make a video about right side bend? Is it important or not? Only with driver or all clubs? I tried implementing it recently and I was hitting the ball better than ever on the course (for ONE day). Then more recently I went to the range to mimic my on-course results and I was coming over the top and hitting TERRIBLY. Maybe you can make a video specifically describing the "feelings" of what your body is doing (in your mind) when you swing? That would help a lot. You are my favorite instructor to watch now. Thanks! I feel like I'm about to make a break through but I'm not quite there!
Wilwen you should let me help you through an online lesson. It’s way better than guessing what you’re issue is.
@@MiloLinesGolf Milo - I went to the range and tried the step today! It's awesome, haha. This isn't perfect but here's my swing. How'd I do? instagram.com/p/CEX-v2WHN32
You buy your first pair of shorts? 😂
imprezivr61 ha ha
From a physics perspective, isn’t this required for an in to out swing?
Dude you are out west and NO sun on those legs>>>ouch!
The hip is not moving faster than the leg. Ridiculous
The Leg is internally rotating in the hip socket.
