Phenomenal instruction! Your demonstration and communication of how to properly pivot is the best I've seen or heard in the 30 years I've been playing.
I like thinking about the swing this way. More lower body activation to generate power. You can try to increase swing speed by driving the legs and hips faster. Good to remember. Thanks Zach!
I was taught a different technique. Keep the lower body facing forward. Turn the shoulders and chest around a stable body in takeaway and backswing, which turns the hips and knees, feel the weight in the back leg, and turn the shoulders and arms so the club is parallel to the ground. Swing down with the legs and hips. When done correctly, it produces a powerful swing. Is your technique easier and as powerful? I'll have to try it.
When viewed with video, great players look fairly quiet with the lower body, but when they are on pressure mats, and we see there ground force data, there lower body is very active but looks quiet.
We know the left hip is very active in the rotatory and vertical movements as you describe. How active is the right hip? Is it just along for the ride?
@@ZachAllenGolf could you be a little more granular? There are different feels to rotate through to the finish. It’s been my Achilles heel, as I suspect for others.
Very nice video. It looks like as you complete the back swing, you get a little lighter on your feet, then heavier in the downswing, then lighter again. That brings to mind Francesco Molinari. It's easy to see this happening in his swing. For example ruclips.net/video/7WwIlf_5TTk/видео.html
Zach is one of the best online instructors.

Wow, that is a huge compliment, it is really difficult to describe how the body works in the golf swing.

does not work so well and leads to back problems.
Very valuable information for multiple intelligence instruction.
Very good drill Zach...that's the way it's supposed to be done!
Great video Zach!!!
Nice detailed illustration....thank you.
Great illustration! I got it. THANKS
Innovative instruction .. Thanks!
When you elevate at impact do you push off both feet or push up with the left leg.
Both are pushing up at that point.

Definitely not, the right hip is active through out but in a educated correct way.

I have a hard time starting with my lower body without moving my head but I do call the hip movement "the dance move"
Dude!! why have you got your grandma's walker ?

That is exactly right, this is the unweighting phase of the backswing, and the beginning of the downswing as well.
I've never played golf with a belly dancer..........but I'd like to.
