Michael , this is a great video that I believe it could help many players who don't "turn" . Butch David & Hank have had about 45 + years to develop a video of this quality and never came close . Still their written - up in magazines as if they really had something to say . The good old boys are taking care of them . Time for "real" teachers like you to be given National platforms . I'm embarrassed to admit i just found your video , thank you so much . Your an enthusiastic and talented teacher . Carry on !
Hi Paul! Thank you so much for your kind words. It means a lot to hear that. Thank you again for watching and taking the time to comment. These videos are a labor of love and just hope they help golfers improve but more importantly enjoy the game. Mike
I understand turning but it will appear that your upper body has a lateral movement to your right, my left. Your head has also moved more than is recommended by other teachers. Kindly clarify
Hi Kofoworola, Thank you for your comment. That's a great observation about the lateral movement on the backswing. The lateral movement is occurring because it's an exaggeration as I'm explaining about making a correct pivot. Ideally, there would be little or perhaps no shifting back, only a rotation of the shoulders and hips. If you notice on the swing I took at the end, there was only a slight lateral movement back. Most of the younger tour players have almost lateral movement on their backswing. Please let me know if my explanation make sense.
