    Just learning to play golf, and love your clear, well thought out explanations! I also appreciate the slow motion visuals. It is very frustrating and unhelpful to me to have someone explain something and then do it full speed. It happens too quickly for me to be able to appreciate it.

    Ah the old reverse pivot or negative weight shift. This is maybe the number one problem you'll see with a lot of high handicappers. Big distance killer and big reason for fat shots. Great lesson here that everyone should see. Nicely explained.

    I've been watching a few golf videos to try and improve my game. This channel and another one by Paul Wilson have some of the best and easiest to understand lessons. Only complaint I have is that I'm left-handed and the lessons often speak of specific left shoulder or right leg movements instead of trail shoulder and lead leg, which is less confusing for me since I have to try and reverse whatever they say when using the word left or right.

  • @frankferrara406
    @frankferrara406 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Your recommendation on getting the left shoulder and left knee orientation prior to impact is good to focus on-will try it out. This should prevent premature tilting back of the upper body and spine.

  • @danzors
    @danzors ปีที่แล้ว

    I've learn so much from you Jonathan. Your instruction is one of the clearest on TH-cam. While I shift my weight, how come my left glute hurts after a while? Am I shifting too much weight onto my left leg before impact or am I really that weak?

  • @redhed9776
    @redhed9776 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    "stay centered", "turn in a barrel", "do not sway".. these are a few of the instructions from the past. Following these ideas makes weight shift very hard to accomplish. It is the buggaboo of many trying to make solid contact. Very good lesson young man.

    Great video! I tend to have that issue where I am a bit slidey, and don’t get my upper body across enough into impact.
    I noticed the sense of downward movement in the last drill.
    I think I’ll try experimenting with a feeling of the right hip moving downward - I think that will help

  • @TML34
    @TML34 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great lesson! One other thing to note, is that you need to begin the weight shift as you reach the top of your backswing. In other words, the downswing is triggered by the lower body and core, not the arms.

    Great visuals and tips. This is currently what I seem to be struggling with in my golf swing at the moment so thanks for sharing and opening my eyes a little more to my issue. Only thing I think you could also throw in there is the fact that if you do not shift your upper body forward with the hips in unison, you won't even really have a complete finish with your eyes, hips and trail knee facing your target.

    • @areddishfish4402
      @areddishfish4402 ปีที่แล้ว

      Exactly. I understand the logic of shifting your weight but I can't get it to occur smoothly like he does it. I had the same issue when I took boxing classes. I couldn't get my hips in the punches and therefore I lost out on power.

      @areddishfish4402 ปีที่แล้ว

      He's really good at explaining. I went to a GolfTec instructor for lessons and $500 later and I still couldn't make reasonable contact with the ball. The guy I had just told me obvious things about what I need to do but never really gave me workable drills to actually learn to do those things.

    @brianpetersen6128 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Good video. I feel like you should do the next video explaining the importance of opening your hips with the weight shift. I struggled majorly earlier this summer with sliding because I kept thinking “just get your weight to the left”. Yes get your weight to the left but just as, if not more important, is turning your hips and dropping your left butt check back to create room for the swing. Sliding leads to its own set of frustrating problems.

    • @stevekeller3643
      @stevekeller3643 ปีที่แล้ว

      Brian & JKM,
      Totally identify with what Brian is saying here. I don’t fall back but also don’t rotate through so that my belt buckle faces the target. Therefore my extension thru the ball is not very good, folding up a bit after impact. Would love to see a follow up video on that.
      JKM, love your content as well as your methodology ! You have a gift imo.
      Regards, Steve

    • @areddishfish4402
      @areddishfish4402 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is where I'm at. I had a not so good instructor a couple of years ago through Golf Tec and he made it seem like you just slide to the left but that feels awkward and throws me off balance. Have you found any videos that illustrate this?

    What is the triger move by the time you are in transition between backswing to downswing to help you think about moving forward , Like pushing with the right foot or let yourself fall thowars the target that will give the kick start to help remind or promote the shift of your weigth forward ? Thanks

    • @bennyray_84
      @bennyray_84 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’m left-handed too. This is definitely one reason. I recorded myself earlier when hitting and I saw that this was what I was doing. In doing so, it will either create fat shots and/or slices to the left because it opens up the club face. But with these drills, we’ll fix this!! 💪🏾💪🏾

    @g4yrut 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Quick tip for anyone who struggles with their upper body trailing behind. Ensure your lead arm is straight.
    A straight lead arm means you’re applying downward pressure, causing the arm to effectively act as a pendulum. This forces the lead shoulder to stay connected, on plane, and to shift with your hips.

  • @andrewbanas3036
    @andrewbanas3036 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have been seeing a lot of golfers actually load their back foot prior to loading the front foot prior to starting the down swing. This is like throwing a baseball, which makes sense to me. This is contrary to your early loading of the front foot. I have had success following your approach but I feel like I am leaving a lot of speed on the table. What do you think.
