How to Get TOUR Like Extension Through Impact 🏌️‍♂️ 

Thank you 🙏🏻 👊

🙏🏻👊🙂

@@ranmangolf sure does - well said 👏

You are so welcome!

Wow, thanks!

@@Scratch_Monsters_Golf you’re too kind 🙏🏻💯

@@AthleticMotionGolf you deserve it

@@leemartino5547 let’s go 💪

Awesome! Sounds like your working with a good pro 👏

You got it!

We’re about to board a plane to the UK to do some 1-day golf schools with GEARS at the JD Golf Academy this Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday . 🙂

Love it 👊🙂

👊🙂

You sir have just made the first Crew reference in our channels history 👏🙂

Clearly the father of the “modern swing” 👊😂

Love it! Thanks for watching 👊

Great thought 🙌

@@AthleticMotionGolf thanks. That's positive reinforcement!

@@johnatchley9754 love it👏 Very similar to one of the drills we use in our Speed System .

A lot of that reverse C came from knee drive that had the lead knee well outside the ankle. There was also a lot of hip and knee issues from that as well. Any good movement can be over/under down - your point about being a matter of degrees is a very important one 👏

Not to speak for the fellas but speaking from an anatomy standpoint there's obviously extremes. That being said one sure fire way to screw your back is too much rotating while side bending. Spines primary function is to flex and extend so those motions aren't bad for your back unless you dont actually have those ranges from a mobility standpoint

Let’s go 👊🙂

Great point. Many of he best, and simplistic, drills have been around since great golf has been played

Love to hear that you’re playing pain free now. But I think you’re confusing spinal compression with what we’re showing. Extension of the spine, like we’re showing here, is the opposite of compressing it. Shaun has a herniated disc and I have 6 screws in my lower back. Swing mechanics that are safe on the back are paramount in our instruction 🙂

@@AthleticMotionGolf Thanks for the correction and glad to hear that you are cognizant of the issue. My "conventional" swing also worked pretty well and I have learned a lot from your channel about "positions" and execution. A job well done.

No way for us to know without seeing what you currently do, but it should be the opposite of a flippy ball flight 😊

@@AthleticMotionGolf what's a flippy ball flight? high? It definitely used to launch too high. I'm actually at the range right now trying it and it's going very low, but I've lost ball speed

@@patitoshorehigh is good. Ballooning not good

@@malcolmparker2243 👊🙂

Just the opposite is through impact with pros. The he trail leg is doing very little. Think front wheel drive lol. Ams are more rear wheel drive

@@AthleticMotionGolf Does the rear leg provide sideways push earlier in the downswing ? If so when and at what point does it switch off?

@@johnhue8933 it’s early to mid backswing 😉

These guys and Dan Grieve for short game are the only guys I recommend.

We appreciate it 🙌

@@adamhope8689Thank you! 👊🙂

@@adamhope8689 lol me too

@@adamhope8689 imagine that collaboration....get dan on there

The arms do lift coming through but much of that lift is a result of the extension and they aren’t lifting past the chest until much later than what most golfers realize.

Thanks for the reply.

That's awesome - I haven't heard that one before. What a legend!

Great point and I feel your pain 😬😅

@@richardelgart8420 🙏🏻👊

You got this!

👊😅

@@billygraham5589 as a practical application, there is t a rule for swing weight clubhead speed. How a given player reacts is the wildcard in the equation. Also swing weight is not a good indicator for mass involved at impact as SW doesn’t tell you of the components.

Try focusing on the body movements in the video and see if you don’t get that left arm stuff for free 🙂

@@bryang949 🙏🏻👊

@@gregowsik3848 we have seen that a couple times. What to fix is gonna be directly related to how much he practices 🙂

@@AthleticMotionGolf he’s from the Allen Iverson school of practice

@@gregowsik3848 😂 mine too

@@cubfan69kmz85 we did a lesson 2hrs ago where we were able to get the golfer to finally stop doing “arm and hand” stuff through impact and just get him to move his body more like this… he was amazed he saw himself suddenly do all the Armand hand stuff he’d been try to do 🙂 When you say “forward” with the knee, are you taking about towards the ball or towards the target?

@@AthleticMotionGolftowards target, like the amateur in gears.

@@winsyong finishing with the chest up and back extended (to top half of the reverse “C”) is a back saver. The back killer is the bottom half of the “C” saggy knee leg drive. DOING what we show here is how to NOT finish low and around 😉

@@AthleticMotionGolf thanks for the feedback, will definitely be paying attention to the pointers in this video as well.

Our pros range from early 20's to late 60's. They all do this movement. IIRC the am here was late 40's.

I wouldn’t because I don’t feel that lol. But that’s the thing about feels, they are unique to the player. The best way to know what it should feel like to YOU is make the proper movements (as slow as it needs to be to do it) then pay attention to what that feels like.

Agree, I'll try both feels and let you know how I get on

👊🙂

@@tedfields9978 it starts well before and continues during 👍

Thanks for the prompt response.

@@leepuddefoot-attackanglego7734 🙏🏻👊

@@brucelade8551 it’s much harder to extend the pelvis correctly if the lead knee is sagging through impact

@@AthleticMotionGolf Thanks makes sense in context of your video. Your Gears pro left knee looks very "quiet"?

Now you can work on it 👊😉

Father Time is undefeated. But we can slow him down 🙂

@@AthleticMotionGolf This was an awesome video. Working on this pushing a ball and then 20-30 yard pitch shots is the way to make it better And I am looking forward to your book 10 keys to better golf. 👊🔥

@@louislane1968 we have seen a few like that. Basically spinning. Not much speed at all associated with being excessively open.

I just looked at Furyk, he came to mind. He is in similar position, but gets away with it.

@@louislane1968 Incredible golfer. Good athlete. Good example of rotation not producing speed.

Thank you for your reply!

@@kenthustvedt7139 we don’t subscribe to the back/mid/front post theory as we haven’t seen it borne out in the data we’ve collected over the years. What leads you to believe most of the pros we show, and us, are mid post? Isn’t a screening necessary to make the determination?

@@AthleticMotionGolfI think he means your ideal averages out to be mid-post (right or wrong). Is the thought that someone like Bryson is essentially within the realm of acceptability vs “being front post”?

@@ryandavidtrapasso we haven’t seen a single pro yet who doesn’t do what we’re highlighting in this video. Maybe I’m just not following the question correctly, but I love learning and swing discussions 🤓

@@AthleticMotionGolf Screening is good, but the post is generally obvious because there are a lot of traits. Dustin Johnson is rear post and he has a very strong grip, has more hip hinge, turns around his rear leg, his pressure moves to the target later, his hips are wide open at impact, he extends both arms parallel to ground on the through swing, and he uses the ground mostly horizontally. Rory has a more neutral grip, medium hip hinge, his hips are less open at impact, he extends both arms lower than Dustin and uses the ground rotationally and vertically. And from what I've seen your swings are similar to Rory's. A front post golfer has a weaker grip, more upright stance, pressure moves forward at P2, hips are even less open at impact, arms are extended 1-2' past impact, and uses the ground mostly vertically. There are clearly exceptions so I'd say the post is a starting point for explaining differences between different golf swings. I love your videos but the only basis that I hear for the golfers that you use in your examples is that they won a lot of money or majors. These people are freak athletes whose bodies can hold up under their extensive training regimens over many years. So it may not be reasonable to think everyone can move the way that they move or that everyone should swing the same way. In this video I don't see an explanation as to why Dustin and Rory have differences in their swings. Or your 3 other examples. Is it that you don't know how/why they are different or is it that it's beyond the scope of a video to provide this information? I'm not saying that you should adopt Mike Adams' approach, but it would be nice if you could explain why your examples are different so we could maximize the value of your great experience and technology.

@@kenthustvedt7139 can you link me to the measured ground forces of Rory and DJ that support those descriptions? We have them both on real 3D and their data does not support the movements you described. But again, if you have links you could share I’d love to see the captures. We do not suggest movements that only fit, thin, hyper mobile players can do. That would be highly useless instruction. What do you feel we teach that falls into that category. We work with many tour players, but work with many many many more players between the ages of 50-70. They don’t seem to have an issue. I’ve heard all the guesses and opinions why those guys swing differently. But I haven’t anything more concrete than guesses or opinions. Which is fine btw. We prefer to lean on the data we’ve collected and trust our measurement tools to inform our instruction. It’s always up to the player to choose the path they want to go down. But if this is a discussion on the why or what’s measured, I’m sure you’ll agree that your descriptions will need to be supported by evidence as well, right?

@@bdstl6622 to extend, yes 👍

Ben Doyle👍

We see what you did there 🍑😄

@@0l_z 😬😅

@@coachfezz1137 it can be, but that’s also why accurate info is important 🙂

@@sm00v00 not the same thing. Bad analogy

@@television3771 sounds like you didn’t watch the how to get it done part?

@@AthleticMotionGolf Of course I did…….Love the content and you and Mike are likable. I reference your vids all the time.

@@television3771 haha was just making sure you saw the how part. some folks don't make it all the way through videos before commenting or asking questions. Thanks for sharing the vids 🙏👊

@@LBJC camera angles 😛

They both looking more fit. Congrats guys

@@ruedigermergemeier interesting how what you saw is so different than everyone else.
