KNEE MOVEMENT (PART 1): BACKSWING
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- In this series I will be talking about lower body / knee movement throughout the swing. This is very important for players to understand and can help players with mobility in terms of rotation and help to control lateral movement. IF you have a better understanding of these concepts then it greatly improve the quality of your ball striking!

Jonathan -you're the best professional golf instructor/coach I watch on RUclips. Your explanations offer such clarity on how to correct positions, swing, etc, and therefore how to improve As a high handi-cap golfer, I'm no longer thinking of quitting because my game was so disappointing. You've changed my golf game. Just following a few of your corrections made such a difference. Thank you for your excellent lessons.
Really some of the easiest instruction to follow on the net. Underrated .
No doubt! I was thinking the same thing. Every single video I learn something!
I was trail leg locking which caused my early extension. You may be the BEST RUclips golf coach ever
Spot on! You cover exactly the mistake I was making (straighten my trail knee in the backswing). Took your video and advice to the driving range and the result was day and night! Thanks a lot!
Best instructor on social media. You got me consistently in the 80s
I really appreciate the work you put in to help all golfers who watched your videos. You're the best of all out there. Your contents should be a prerequisite for new golfers. I wished I had found your videos earlier when I started out, could've save me from a lot of bad golf in the early days.
Incredible, I just discovered this lead knee thing yesterday and realized the value of paying more attention to it. Thanks for the verification.
The quality of the content, how Kim is so professional on explaining is just amazing. All the content and knowledge you share so far has changed my swing thought completely and it works well on range.
Wow, great content, detailed explanation ! I decided to follow your lesson after so many wasted video I’ve watched. Keep it up
Hello from Canada 🇨🇦
Great and easy to understand how to turn the body in a golf swing.
Keep up the great work 👍 👏
You have been a god send for me to self analyze and I’m making significant progress in power, consistency less physical strain on my body. Thank you so much and I wish you happiness and prosperity!
Tried it, defeated the enemy yesterday! 🤣 Your ability to convey how to succeed, through proper technique is unmatched! I'm totally impressed by your eloquence. Thank you so much for this lesson! I'm sloshing around on a course in Southwest Tennessee, even in the winter mud thanks to you, I'm still hitting most balls much more flush. For me, this lesson is definitely a game changer. I would like to thank you very much Mr. Johnathan Kim-Moss, you're the best!
Jonathan, another excellent detailed lesson. Your strength in presentation compared to others is making your specific point clearly and repeating it so the viewer really understands your point. I enjoyed 6 lessons at Golftec here in Phoenix last year and it was a tremendous help. Have been working on my swing now for a mere 60 yrs. but seriously in the past 20. A long time over-the-top guy and when the tempo is right I now flush it down the line. As for the knee movement, what I learned at Golftec was in the take away instead of letting the left (lead) knee move inward to the right, move the left knew somewhat straight forward with a slight angle to the right. What this did was noticeably reduce the backwards sway and lead to more solid contact. I also use a stack-n-tilt setup with about 60% of my weight on my left side at take away. This leads to less backwards shift and makes it easier to shift the lead hip towards the target in the downswing. Both the weight distribution and straighter knew movement has lead to move consistent ball contact. Great work young man.
JKM’s golf resume is basically his actual swing. His sweet swing is insta credibility.
Hi Jonathan, I starten with Golf half year ago of the age of 60 and watched already a lot of Videos.
I really appreciate your calm, clear and extremly helpful lessons and hints. I know it is still a Long way to go for me but with this kind of support I reach my targets. Many many thanks from Germany (near Frankfurt)
Mistake #1 guy and your right I'm constantly trying to just fix the issue by focusing on the knee and hold it out and not the cause my hips. Great tip!
After decades of a "just okay" swing, I learned that I had an incorrect knee bend. I started bending the left knee more on the backswing and tilting the shoulders toward the ball. The downswing is started better with a straightening of the left knee and better hip turn. The ball striking is much more consistent. One of the best results is that my back feels great and I end up with a pose where I am facing the target like a pro.
Johnathan: I have been using some of your methods and I like your approach of "suggesting things" and "consider" other things. I have adopted many of the suggestions you make and believe that my golf is improving or will improve when I can start playing again in the spring. Over the last several years I have looked and downloaded videos from Top speed golf, Mike Malaska, Danny Maude, Rick Sheils, Rob Cheney, Steve Johnson, Paul Wilson, Kirk Junge, Golf Test Dummy, etc. when looking at the different online instructors I see some different approaches and most of them. I can glean something out from.
Some of what Malaska approach is differentiating between something like a knee position at a certain place in the swing is not the cause of a proper swing but the result of a proper swing.
Don't get me wrong, I am not a great golfer and I have no pretense in knowing what a proper swing actually is. Sometimes I wonder if a good swing is developed and is not expressed in absolute terms by any online instructor. As a former designer and project engineer I am just trying to understand the swing and this is more of a question than a statement. I started out last year with a single plane swing and I think I still have some aspects of that in my swing. I started with you in "Stack and tilt" when I was trying that.
I am not trying to criticize but wonder about all of the positions of things during the swing with is more of a streaming thin than a series of distinct positions. Let me know what you think. Thank you and keep up the good work!
I’m definitely the third player I always find myself locking out my trail leg and over, flexing that lead knee which causes me to dip my head in the backswing and come up in the downswing and I still can hit it really well I wonder what would happen if I flexed less. Can wait to try it out
Mistake 3 is me to a tee. Now I need to get to the range and work at changing it!!!
u are the man to follow 2023!
Thank you. I'm definitely 3 and finding keeping flex in trail knee beneficial :)
Love your videos JKM 🙌
I definitely straighten the back knee and it causes a reverse pivot. When I first started, an instructor really hounded me to keep my weight on my front foot and it caused some bad habits to develop through the swing, as I wasn't loading on the back foot enough. Hard to change, but this helps me realize that I need to keep some more flex in that back leg.
Great idea for a series! Looking forward to the upcoming parts!
Thanks for this Jonathan. Helped a lot!
You are so good at teaching golf very clear lessons 👍
Good video JKM needed that Cliffs notes
Great video thanks man!
very clear explanation
Thanks for the great tips!
Excellent lesson about a subject not often covered, will definitely help me out. Also, what kind of shoes are you wearing?
Thank you!
Do brace against your right leg in the backswing ?
Great video, thx, now to implement it! Any thoughts on this - I have a long term bad habit where both knees increasing flex as I start the takeaway, with the result that club path starts incorrectly & correction needed etc, daft really as makes the path the club needs to take more complex than if I didn’t do it. Playing off 3 having got back in to golf last year at age 53, really want a solid long game to give me a solid foundation to improve. Any suggestions? I also have too much lateral movement. Thx👍
Came here due to a recommendation. I seem to be twisting on my backfoot during my swing instead of having my weight in my lead foot. I don't really even know I'm doing it
Do you have any video to fix severely under the plane downswing? Shaft is way way behind me during the downswing
i struggle with the third mistake where the right knee straightens out and then pops ahead in the down swing causing early extension. Any good drills for this?
Mistake #3 is killing me. I can’t get rid of this early extension
The action of your knees are a result of hip movement, correct?
So #3 is my issue where my left knee bends excessively forward and I lower my head towards the ball.
I can’t seem to turn without flexing my kneee. Any ideas?
I would need to see your swing to give you a more specific answer
Shouldn't u have more flex in ur right knee at impact? Your rt knee is straightish?
Dommage que ce ne soit pas sous titré en french 😩
