Having studied the golf swing for 35 years from every article and video i could get my hands on i believe these guys are the very best because 6 weeks of subscription has resulted in understanding what I need to do and being able to do it. Thank you both.
Love the hands to the knees. It helped me find more consistency in my swing, as I always struggled with remembering/getting into my position the next time I were going out to play. So annoying having to fight with that over and over again, but the hands to the knees has helped a lot. Thanks a lot :D
I really appreciate the detailed breakdowns of the Swing mechanics. Out of all the in-person, literature, and instructional videos that I've encountered, YOUR attention to details, has helped me better understand EXACTLY what should be taking place in different areas of the golf swing. I'm getting excellent results from following your instructions, because I have a much better understanding of cause & effect. You guys have given me the best instructions I have encountered to this day and I just want to say, THANK YOU!
U guys rock. I was suffering with distance because of poor timing and you guys are the only one to fix it your right concept of moving during you swing now I'm back to hitting my 7i 170yds again thank u!!!! Recentering early was the key!!
I always struggle with early extension. I found recently videoing my self my practice swings no early extension. I found my posture was to far bent over and my arm pits over my toes. standing more upright immediately gave me better looking swing plus allowed my right elbow to get in front. still a long ways to go fix my swing. but posture was huge step forward
Fantastic content fellas. The dynamic movement in a swing can certainly expose any areas where you're out of balance at address. Like walking where we're in a dynamic balance, a golf swing (as you're saying!) is the same thing. Thank you!
Really enjoy your content (UK golfer playing off 6)...I'm 6 feet 3 but have a long spine and legs about 33 inches. Could you guys please do a video on posture and best swing (upright or round) for this body type. I feel that my weight goes to toes if I keep minimal knee flex and more front bend...similarly too much knee flex and less front bend causes lack of rotation.. thanks
Great tip on the amount you should bend over having the fingers touch the top of the knee caps to determine that. I was having a problem bending over too much and wanting a way to know when I’ve bent over the proper amount and this helped immensely, thank you very much!
Great advice- find a pro with a similar height and look at their posture. I have just been studying Luke Donald who is about 5'8" and comparing videos of me- I can already see what to try. Thanks Guys!
Three people who gave this a thumbs down are "reverse c" scoliosis patients. Keep up the good work AMG!!!! Just got your all access pass.....content is mind blowing
@@AthleticMotionGolf Still trying to find an answer. Went to a few chiropractors and they said no scoliosis but they said i have a rotated torso or longer leg. Probably need to go see a bone doctor
I like the video I just need to put it in practice as I struggle with consistency with my game. It is hard for me as I've had 3 spine surgeries. My last one was 1 day shy of 4 months as I make this post. I've been cleared to play by my doctor to play but with limitations. No using my hybrids or woods and drivers. I look at is as iron boot camp. My friends play in the mid to high 80's, me just add 20 more. It cant be fun to play with me so I need all the help I can get. I'm very competitive and as a former marine I just strive for more from myself to be better. Great content will let you know how I do, Thanks Again
I’m always tinkering w this due to my flat feet. Trying to get my weight balanced on both feet equally and not be on my toes. I always seem to be off balance a lil if I don’t favor my right side. I have to consciously push outwards on my knees to keep from too much slide and it’s frustrating
gentlemen, great video. can you give me a rough idea of the angle of the spine from down the line when "bending over the fence" for driver and in comparison for 9 iron? (im thinking the angles are different becuase the club is shorter so more bend, im not sure apx how much would be consider normal) Thanks! Dr .D
Hi guys - love your content; helped me so so much. Would love to see something, which addresses the ‘challenges’ faced by taller players which you touch on here, I’m a 4 h’cap, 202cm tall, ex-professional athlete, have 125mph driver club head speed; I don’t struggle athletically, but feel as though much of what I see and try to adopt simply gets misinterpreted when I apply to my frame... I can shoot 75, or 95 still! Possible to look at trends, common themes across taller players for us big guys struggling with EE, CH control etc! Thanks, Will
how much focus and tension are placed on the core muscles? my swing feels more on plane with your two posture checkpoints but i get inconsistent results when i forget to tighten my core.
Is there any way of actually rotating from the middle of the pelvis independent of the left and right hips or was the posture adjustment the main thing that fixed this problem?
Great video gents.....what changes in the set-up with driver in terms of proximity to the ball. I often feel "crowded" or to close to the ball creating issues with swing path and impact. Any thoughts are appreciated and welcome. Thanks !
Athletic Motion Golf it’s seems with my posture it was making me bring the clubhead to far inside. The posture changed allowed me to sense I was able to rotate better. A great tip 👍🏼
I’m working hard on the hips over ankles part. My question is, if I’m practicing my posture against a wall, how far should my heels be from the wall?(assuming my glutes are touching the wall)
Totally disagree with the side bend at address. Look at Moe Norman who is arguably the best ball striker EVER who sets up with about 15 degrees of side bend. I’ve been using his swing for 2 years and can hit the ball pretty much dead straight and for power.
At one point in the video, you say something like: "There are even some coaches who teaches this", refering to having a rounded back, pelvis forward towards the ball, and bent knees. Although not that exaggerated, this is what George Gankas teaches. In one of his videos he even says that bad posture is good posture for golf. Are you saying that what he teaches is wrong? The results of his players beg the differ, in that case.
@@AthleticMotionGolf Let me base some George Gankas players recently winning (although some not on tour yet): Sung-hoon Kang, Matthew Wolff, Akshay Bhatia, Danny Lee. Also helping out numerous others.
@@bEeeatem When was Danny's recent win? You're comparing a tour win, a college golfer, and a high school golfer to over 100 wins on Tour. All fine players, but it's not really a fair comparison is it?

Awesome, Jae, way to go!👊 . It's a little thing but has such a big impact on the swing.
As a 240 lb golfer with a lack of good balance, I liked this video and will be using a full length mirror to correct my posture. Thx for this.

The whole lesson was great. The drill and bonus drill was dead on in showing me where my posture needs to be. Thanks guys.

Tall long-waisted guys will need a little more butt back behind the heels to counter all that torso hanging out past the toes.

No thumbs down here but i do have setup issue,. My right hip is higher than my left and causes issues in setup
@@pokerlife123 do you have a leg length discrepancy?

Separate the spine tilt from the shoulders level! Big aha moment for me. Thanks!
The rounded back with butt under me works great.
Exactly how Nicklaus setup.
Great Drill . You guys help alot
Awesome. Bout to take my buddies money with this. Can’t wait.

So if the setup is more bending over a fence then you would be more in your quads right?
Great stuff lads as always.
Passing all your content on to hundreds of people each month 🙏🏻❤️
So appreciate all the shares! We really want to make across the pond to visit you guys within the next year.
Nice explanation I feel when I squat it’s more athletic but it’s not according to this video. Probably where I’m struggling most

How much is really an individual feel, TM... but there def should be some there👍

See if this one doesn’t help answer your questions ruclips.net/video/0IxllCJRKS4/видео.html
What about if you have too much forward or primary tilt ? Meaning if your hands at set up are too low to the ground how does that impact your swing ?
sping angle discussed apx 8:37
How far do i have to set up from the ball.Pierre From South Africa
Great video gents.....what changes in the set-up with driver in terms of proximity to the ball. I often feel "crowded" or to close to the ball creating issues with swing path and impact. Any thoughts are appreciated and welcome. Thanks !
Let the arms hang just slightly forward of vertical 👍
Got it...thanks !
I have a afternoon round and will give the suggestions a try and add the results
Let us know how it goes👍

@@ThePNWRiderWA Awesome... great awareness from you👊
@@ThePNWRiderWA Love it!
Could you please do a video on how to turn the back. Thanks 😊
Hey Robert, search our "videos" tab here and you'll see a few videos on rotation😊
I'm 6 feet with 38 inch wrist to floor. Touching knee caps means a lot of knee bend for me. Any suggestions? Any tour pros I can look at?
Excellent video guys thanks so much!!
Thanks for checking it out, Michael🙏
Thank you. This Really helps
I’m working hard on the hips over ankles part. My question is, if I’m practicing my posture against a wall, how far should my heels be from the wall?(assuming my glutes are touching the wall)
clubhead's width away
Thank You !
when you say touch the knees for posture, is that the middle of the kneecap, top/bottom?
top👍
Good . Thanks as that is the right feel for me although it looked like Mike was touching the middle@@AthleticMotionGolf
So do you have to feel like your on the balls on your feet at set up?
Right over the arches is a great place to start from.
Great stuff guys!!!
Do you see a left hip bump in the set up?
No not really
Thats a good drill
Smart video guys
I take it u don’t like George Gankas posture teaching.
I am short 1500 mm how to posture?

Moe norman started with a tremendous amount of tilt at address and he was the straightest ball striker of all time!!
