Rotate Your HIPS PROPERLY In The Golf Swing 🔄

u/Lower_Professor416 2023 · r/GolfSwing · in “Any rotation drill recommendations for iron swings?”

Don't think of it as rotation. Think of it as right hip back, left hip back. Pretend there is a wall behind your butt at address. Push your right hip into the wall on the backswing, push the left hip into the wall on the downswing. ▶ this video

Agree with all above Definitely too far from the ball, 3 inches. Super flat backswing with no wrist hinge until way too late. Learn what the hips (controlled by the knees ) do. ▶ this video

That’s what so hard about golf. It really is a game of contradictions and the language to describe it gets confusing. I said the hip motion was advice for another day. Well, you’re about to make a liar out of me. So, let’s talk about the hips in the golf swing. Even while consciously keeping your hips back, they will work their way into the swing. But you need to exaggerate the feeling to get the mechanics to …

Best advice is to not think of it as spinning/firing the hips. Instead, think of it as right hip back left hip back. ▶ this video Usually hip movement issues are a result of other things going wrong in the swing and not for a lack of trying. But it’s useful to know. You are rotating too much in the backswing and possibly doing a reverse pivot (easier to see from face on). ▶ this video

The backswing pivot needs to be fixed. Unless there is a physical limitation, this will help elongate the backswing and put you in a much better position to start down. ▶ this video ▶ this video ▶ this video ▶ this video

u/jtag67 2022 · r/GolfSwing · in “How do I stop coming in steep?”

I mean this in as nicest possible way, but there's a series of faults that you need to address before you really get away from being steep. Fixing steep will still leave you with a lot of faults and a struggle for consistency. The steepness and slice are just symptoms of the faults. I'm using Athletic Motion Golf as examples because I like the way they explain things. If you find someone explaining it in a way that …

u/gitbse 2023 · r/GolfSwing · in “8hcp all feedback,breakdowns, tips are appreciated.”

Weight transfer and hip turn are really good, only big change I would make is you're a little steep and over the top on the downswing. The hips going back are restricted too much. Getting his right his a bit deeper will help the upper body come down into the slot better. ▶ this video Like that. With better players, the right hip can get stuck and not turn back properly, and cause an over the top. Getting that right …

Fix your grip where your right pinky is between your left index and middle finger. For your swing, u need to do better with your hips keeping it back throughout the swing. ▶ this video Start at 10:30
