- A tutorial from GRF Golf Head Coach Marcus on why the conventional method to starting the backswing with a takeaway might not be such a good idea. Then as always a couple golf drills and exercises for you guys to explore your own means of initiating the golf swing.

I started these drills 5 days ago and it is amazing how consistent my ball contact has been with the incorporation of the frontal plane rotation.
Another wonderful explanation of the golf swing and how important the take away is, and it is NOT a static takeaway, but a very dynamic takeaway. using the board and the 1-2-3 works very well. Thanks for sharing. Cheers.
I always feel like a statue in my takeway. I can't wait to give your approach a try. It makes so much more sense to me. But what a cliffhanger of an ending! Please let there be a part two. 🙏
👍 you'll love the second part
I've watched quite a lot of your videos in the last few months and it had been a great help.
I've started playing golf in May 2023, have watch a lot of YT vids on golf instruction, found Dr. Kwon, his approach resonated with me, your channel is Kwon-theory in golf practice.
I'm really starting to get the swing.
My golf-pro is also into Kwon and your stuff.
Watching your videos has made me aware of how to play a draw or a fade.
thanks.
Thanks for the demo.
As always Marcus, a brilliant explanation and demonstration conveyed with a simple explanation and excellent drills. I'm looking forward to the follow up on the downswing 🙂
Great video Marcus, this made the 1,2,3 motion sink in more than anything👍
Great video thanks
Great video! Next video is the unload from step 3? :)
SO GOOD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Huh, I've struggled so long trying to find a happy medium between wrecking ball and slingshot. Arms almost always end up too high. Never occurred to me to do one (wrecking ball), then the other.
AWESOME!!!😎
the issue i have (and I would think a vast amount of poor golfers) is that we have all tried shifting like that but when you make a backswing and then lateral swing through then the momentum of the club combined with the ground forces from lead side will cause a reaction to that force. That reaction will be to stand up through the shot and early extend. Now im sure that there is a bit of info that GRF golf knows that will prevent this. However on the face of this video im gonna stand up through the swing. I suspect there is vital swing intent that prevents this. Sadly i do not know it. But 100% thats standing up through the hit and a lowest handicap potential of say 15 in isolation. As i said GRF will have the answers but thats the issue i have with this video.
ok ok. I watched some more of these videos and from what i can gather that lateral move is prevented from early extending by the footwork. He shows this with red pressure pads in a kind of walking motion. Also he explains very clearly that a kind of rotation brake is put on by the lead leg and footwork. So what you are doing is combining this move with (i cant remember his terms for the footwork but its the opposite of what he calls transverse rotation). Its basically a pull back of the legwork against the lateral move. This does explain quite a few key observations in the golf swing. This will 100% stop Early Extension and spin outs. I think many many golfers will have rejected this in their homemade swing due to a left sided takeaway idea. You must start the rotation with the feel of your right hip or you will still stand up through impact despite this great advice. Finally this is a golf instructor that actually seems to know what he is talking about. Marcus......... many thanks
As an Ex Tennis coach/pro i fully understand the weight transfer and the "Whip" action but i seem to struggle with distance , same old same old eh? lol, should i take the clubhead back closed as some pros teach or open as many pros seem to do, ie Justin thomas" prep movement, regards /fraser , love the vlogs
By asking that question, it appears you haven’t understood Marcus’ teaching. It has nothing to do with putting the club into positions. It’s about developing a natural dynamic motion. If you ask tour players questions like that about their swing, they have no idea until they saw it on video. The swing is instinct by matching motion with intent.
It’s more of a flail as Marcus has shown in another video(s). Slightly lead with the heel (handle) back and lead with the heel/handle forward creating a flail motion
@@HBHS16 it’s not a flail. It’s a swing
I followed from be better golf and there is my confusion a bit. In be better golf, you tought to swing from the trail leg pushing with no recentering but in this vdo you seem to teach us to recenter to the front before downswing. I may be wrong but could you help enlighten me please?
The hips do not drop or tilt as we walk due to glutinous medium. We do drop in hip height due to stride length. The longer the stride the more we drop. That is heel contact and heel off. In midstance we are at maximum height on one limb with verticality. The foot goes from pronation to supination and the limb in closed kinetic chain does Internal and external.

Last time I enquired about “ground reaction forces” the marines showed up!!
😂😂
Marcus, please combine this video with the Flail Drill and create a dance video😊@grf
😂😂
Would it be fair to conclude from this that chipping is 100% frontal plane?
It's always a combination but yes focus on frontal for short swings. Like putting for example 👍
Hi Marcus, do you have the same feeling with a pitch for short distance shots near the green?
Yes, absolutely 👍
Used to think these mad guys were a bit OTT a seesaw, squidgy foot things etc etc but now im a believer!
but unfortunately ive wasted 2-3 years coming to my Eureka moment which i immediately realised was what the Zengrf guys were banging on about!
I used to turn like an astronaut or water polo player ie all upper body effort, i could still break 80 reg as i hit it stupidly straight but now ive moved to another level i expect to break 70!
Now it just feels like i screw my right side into the ground then my left side into then up
Yes i can hold a club in my hands like rocking a baby move turn and Still keep club away from me in front of my chest it used to come inside every time
I remember tv star Trey doing this at the range i couldnt, now its easy,Trey like most good golfers and all pros learnt as a weak kids,they had to use ground pressure most of us golfers learnt as strong adults we didnt
Do you think lifting your front foot in the takeaway would give the right feeling?
95% of golfers are hackers because of “straight jacket” golf instructors who basically wrap us up in a straight jacket and twist us into pretzels and say now you should be able to swing freely and hit like tiger.
We dont know how to use the tool so we end up being absolutely plagued by chunks on the course.
Nobody has to teach us to use a hammer and after 1 day we all can hit the nail in the middle of the head.
If we knew how to use the tool we could add all the power we wanted.
If I aim 20 yards right of my target and imagine a draw to target does this achieve same
Not sure
@@GRFGolf is George still a bandit? Must be off 7 nowadays
@@marcuschalkley2355 Yes, 5 now and still a bandit!
So good as always!! Just one question for interest rather than application… Why does Leadbetter think he can solve 90% of golfers with just the one piece takeaway? It’s never helped me, but he must have got success with it to come to that conclusion? It’s all he says to people these days! 🙄
