Keeping It Simple || The Hip Bump Explained 

I love the episodes with Mason. His swing is so compact and powerful

I’ve watched every instructor on RU-vid for 2 years but tour backswing has completely revolutionized my iron striking. No more weak shots and tighter dispersion. The hip bump back and forward is a game changer. Even the driver is longer. I’m hitting shots directly at pins although the my be short or long. My issue now is getting distances consistent now that I added 5 yards to 5 iron down.

The explanation of the hip bump not being lateral but slightly rotational is a key nuance explained. Also helps start the rotational pendulum.

What a swing. Crisp and simple, good tempo.

Thank you Adam exactly what I was working on this morning making my chest turn my shoulders to the top of the swing, not as easy as I thought.

I can watch your swing videos for days!!!! great job!

Simply the best coaching on you tube, my scores are actually going slightly up at the moment but my game is feeling stronger. Oh when everything comes together😂😂🎉🎉

This is exactly what I needed

Along with the “hammer the nail” tip, the “hip bump” made me shoot 76 today: the lowest score I turned in in one year, with a ton of flushed irons, tshots and stiffed wedges. Sensational coaching: I can’t thank you enough Adam.

The hip bump is amazing! My entire swing just fall in place and I have been hitting more straight shots than I usually do.. Thanks Adam!!!👍🏻

Thank you, thank you Porzac golf. After watching your videos for the past couple of weeks, I took it straight to the course (no range work) and experienced a noticeable improvement.... consistent straight ball flight, hit every fairway and had my best scoring round of the year. Looking forward to putting in the work. WR

I love you videos and drills. You explain it which makes it so easy to understand. Have saved a few of the videos to help me in mistakes. Will try when l get back golfing in a few months. Unfortunately out after suffering a brain hemorrhage golfing but you videos have kept me so looking forward to getting back. Keep up the great work.

Best video, yet, for me, Adam! Thanks! I'm very tall at 6'10", and sway and slide terribly. Your great explanation of the hip bump should help immensely! Thanks, again, & Merry Christmas to you and all of your team!

That is a beautiful, effortless swing

Just came across your your channel. Love the content and explanation of instruction. Working on setting the club and going up plane as I struggle with inside takeaway and toe hit. Since doing drills I am making more consistent cent contact. Thanks for your help

Very good instruction and explanation

I set-up with too much weight on the trail leg. I’ve had numerous instructors say “put more weight on the lead leg at address” or sitting into the trail leg as you explained. I’ve had a hard time with that (bumping the hips too far forward only) until I saw this example of the hip bump going slightly back at 45° and getting the femur on top of the lead leg. Say goodbye to my hip pain.

I don’t know if this will get to you Adam but I want to thank you for this tip it was what I’ve been looking for I was sliding and rotating way to much so everything was right of target. So this I went to the range and my first 3 row railroad tracks 🎉 I couldn’t e happier and again thank you thank you thank you 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Super helpful, this theory does great to me to break 90 handicap. Thank you so much ❤

Great swing Mason and great work Porzak

Quality content yet again! Love the enthusiasm you guys have for teaching.

The hip bump is so interesting. If you look at tour players almost none of them have it at set-up. (Henrik Stenson clearly uses it as a trigger). They do achieve it once they are at impact, almost all of them have a slight sway but for an average golfer that is very hard to time perfectly. It’s almost as the porzak golf swing is smack in the middle of the traditional golf swing and stack and tilt, pre-setting the hip impact position but still turning your body. Atleast that’s my impression of it.

The sound of that impact..... 👍👍

Super smooth swing love it

These videos are the best!

Ironically a year ago I used to use the hip bump and I played my best golf. I’ve been playing for 2 years and only a year in I started using the hip bump went from 80s to shooting par and then being -6 through 8. I stopped using it and my game went from those amazing scores to 80s and sometimes even 90s and lost a bunch of distance lol

Great content as always!

Great simple tips

I would be interested to know how short that feels to him! Perfect backswing. The fact of that being 3/4 is amazing.

Interesting pointers A+ Dustin Johnson has alot to answer for with that bowed wrist action :-).

Love the contents of video and details thanks

I think u just save my back i machine gun ball all week trying to figure it ou by my self god bless youtube coach

Does the same hip bump for the irons apply to the driver as well? Should we feel posted up on the lead leg?

Do you have any coaches in the Philadelphia South Jersey area that teach your philosophies. I really like the way you explain everything but it hard to tell if your doing it correctly

best explain about the hip bump

Adam, I know you’re onto big things here and are teaching some high level players. But I’m just thinking on the level of a 5.3 handicap, and more for my higher handicap type of guys. I think the number 1 non negotiable that a person learning the game should first learn a punch shot. Weird thing I’ve found out with my game. If anything is off driver, irons, wedges, putter it always is due to overswing or run off being disconnected. If my game is off I shorten up and it comes back almost instantly. For instance I just allowed myself to play the other day not focusing on anything and I couldn’t get off the tee, playing a lot of golf I felt it after I played the reason I was off only hit 19 percent fairway. On a good day I carry driver about 275. Next time out I said I’m just going to shorten up get in the fairway, 85 percent fairway. Only thought I had was this video shorten up 3/4 swing. Average carry was 268 and I wasn’t out there putting anything into it. People need to shorten up stay in balance stop this lifting the heel and kill method for “power”. I have had great days swinging hard out of my shoes and have carried over 300, but all off balance in the follow through. Idc if it Carrie’s that far if I hit the shot and I finish off balance I feel like it’s a terrible shot and a terrible way to play the game

Is the hip bump ”part of the swing”, like a swing-starter? Or is part of the set up?

Thanks for all the great videos. One question. When you do the hip bump, how does the weight transfer in the swing. I always feel like my weight stays on the front foot. Any help much appreciated.

Nice swing

Wouldn't the hip bump also help find the low point in front of the ball for iron shots ? And if so what about the driver ? Hip Bump or not ? Or Hip Bump with the right hip ?

Thanks for extra explanation about the hip bump. If done correctly, will it feel a little closed because of the back movement at setup? Also feels weight on left foot heel and inside right foot. Rgrds

When are the alignment stick covers going to be available?!

Should you do a hip bump with driver too?

Porzak has cleaned my backswing up immensely, previously I was outside and picking it up (think M wolfe but ugly lol), so I got really used to dropping it/shallowing it to get even remotely close to on plane on the way down. My problem now that I'm more connected and on plane in the backswing, is I'm still dumping it and getting way under it on the way down now....any ideas to stop that?

Is your trail knee locking out in the turn or is it still maintaining some flex?

I have to work on this. My driver is more of a push fade

To me the Hip Bump makes me feel like I am putting more pressure on my front heel. Not sure if I’m doing it right or not :)

Would the hip bump to the left makes my trail leg straight during the back swing? What am i doing it wrong 🥲

By doing the hip bump to the lead side, my trail leg, especially the thigh sticks out marginally. Feels I'm aligning to the left of target. Is this correct, Coach Porzak?

I don’t understand the hip bump thing, is it supposed to be a feel? Because I feel like, especially now, you clearly have to shift laterally in both directions in the golf swing.

Adam i was just trying to do this and realised it brought my right knee forward and left knee back. is that expected?

Hip bump with woods and driver?

Hip bump for driver also?

What a flusher

Is the bump merely pre turning the trail butt cheek?

I can’t figure that out my hip now for some reason.

Adam- when left hip bumps back and toward target (to 7pm position on a clock) what does the right hip do? That is- when done correctly are both hips still parallel to the target line or are the hips now angled open?

Please, while demonstrating the hip bump, slow it down and do a close up. Thanks.

I think the one thing ive learned is to look at these golfers hands...the club is misleading...like the takeaway, his hands hardly move, its like inches with a hinge

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2tqB6Gy_WxE.html I'm between two separate setups to test. so far I have been lifting head from take away and if I'm tryin the Allen way my head isn't rising but collecting the ball pure with an iron is tough because the body has new routes now. I also have a lower back issues so I'm open to your way as well. I don't know if the head rising causing inconsistensies.

I guess you could also say "Go to 7Pm" lol

No such thing as hip bump. No such thing a going to position to position. It’s a smooth flowing swing - swing back to swing thru to finish and rely on centripetal force. Shoulders go slow.

Do we hip bump for driver too?

The hip bump direction/posting assume is consistent for driver/wedges?
