Sensei Kim! How do you keep fixing my golf swings??? After your video, I realized I was not downswinging my golf club at the end of the sequence but rather before all of the shoulders, chest and hips were ready! Can you teach in my country!? Do you have online live teachings?
I've recently got rid of a load of complicated swing thoughts and gone back to basics with the golf swing as a dynamic, balanced movement. It's made me excited about the sport again. I think the swing can be massively complicated when fundamentals like balance and sequencing are within our brains and just need to be accessed.
Thanks Jonathan for your very clear and understandable explanation. The sequence of starting the downswing was always a difficult issue. It much more clear now!
Again - love your channel. Your explanations.. breaking things down and your articulation. As a beginner this channel has helped in addition to my lessons. My challenge with one is that while I get the logic and understand cognitively… the execution is where I get all knotted up. 🤷♀️
More separation and faster uncoiling = more power The same sequence applies, but since partial shots need less power, a shorter backswing is needed and since slower uncoiling is needed, open up the hips at address. Basically, the first part of the sequence (lower body) is already done.
Great explanation. How do you hit further? Is that just faster weight transition and hip + upper body movement? Does the arms play a role when you want to add distance, or do they just always follow the body without you “controlling” them? That’s the one concept I still can’t figure out. Thanks
Thumbs up, Jonathan! I like the way you patiently describe the sequence. I have to say it's the first time I feel comfortable with the sequence after I started some 4 years ago. We have a short season in Norway, so that is a factor, but I guess unless you are younger (54 here), you have to be carful to try out too much at once with diffferent RU-vid advice. It's termpting to get all those inputs, but they make you just more confused if it's too soon. Step by step is my advice, some take more time than others. Just the way it is.
i understand that you don't initiate the arms coming down first, however that feel is good for players that tend to spin out like myself and come over the top.
This is by far the best swing explanation and very crystal clear when you explain by separating the lower part body rotation and the upper part body rotation. This will help me practice the drill by starting the rotation from hip, then chest then arm and the wrist to release all the force to the club head. Thank you so much.
Just discovered your channel. You have an excellent way of explaining swing mechanics clearly, without a lot of the confusing jargon used by other RU-vidrs. Great videos!
