@@AthleticMotionGolf Sadly, I tore my Achilles in June and had surgery. But have been recovering well, doing PT, and started working short game and hitting balls a few weeks ago. Will see you in Orlando once I get back in the groove.
I would like to thank you gentlemen for sharing great pro data. I have built a very powerful , accurate and repeatable golfswing . I am 62 yo 5'-7" and absolutely smash the golfball thanks in a large part to you guys. I do have a very costly problem in that I snap stiff golf shafts at times. I just broke 3 shafts in myrtle this month. They are breaking across my back in my follow-through. This problem is driving me crazy and I have no idea on how to fix it. I figured why not ask the #1 golf teaching professionals in the entire industry. My clubs are broken , my wife is mad as hell for me destroying brand new callaways and I am at the end of a rope. Thanks guys
I had a lesson recently and he taught me to do the exact thing you’re saying here not to do. I think agree with what you’re teaching here, but it’s frustrating to pay for a precessional lesson and get taught the exact opposite. Practiced what he taught for a week and it was really hurting my back, so I knew it was wrong. Your videos are helping straighten me back out.
I had heard that you should feel like you hit the ball with your trail hip. Now it makes sense. Is there a drill or swing aid that will help add speed to this feel? Thanks
@@TJ-pf6sj you can’t add speed to something (with good results) that you’re not good at doing. Get really good at doing this and the speed will increase 👊😉
Great tips in this video. Kudos. Is there anyway to make a video where your Gears software calculates the imaginary chord length between the butt of the club and a fix point around the navel area? I find I get better strikes when I focus on this chord length especially after hip rotation. This will also support your trail side hitting the ball. Also, it stops getting stuck. Thanks if you can consider this as Gears software is unreachable in price for most of us, and Sports AI won't give this data.
Have you got anything for backswing lads, my concept or that is way off!! Great video as always this has totally changed the way I think about the downswing!!
I remember watching a video from you guys that was about hitting from the trail side. That video helped me tremendously and I would like to rewatch it could you tell me what one it was??
They've mentioned the concept a few times, but the video you're likely looking for is "Tour shaft lean secret no one is telling you". Go to their home page, hit the videos tab and scroll down to it.
I love these amg videos - I’ve grown so much as golfer following these over the years!! Is there a dynamic drill to help with this concept?? When I go full speeds the wheels come off!!! Thanks!
Are you asking for a drill that'll have you doing something at full speed without first learning how to do it properly at a slow speed? I'm not sure that 🦄exists 😉
Would it be wrong to start the backswing with chest? Rotating chest would also start small pelvis movement naturally as you land pressure onto ball of lead foot. And then u push off the foot and rotate shoulder.
Hey can you make a video about maintaining posture throughout the swing. And why Most of us lose posture during the swing. Is it because of the lower body, upper body, or both.
@@Raret000 the most common reason is a poor setup followed by backswing ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0IxllCJRKS4.htmlsi=tdQXAJN2gDLIkVEt
I am someone who fires the hips and ends up stuck behind, I have with a very rock and block look to my shoulders which are at a steep angle. I’ve tried to change this before and the problem is it’s really hard to get the feel of starting to move in one direction whilst you haven’t finished the backswing which is in the opposite direction. It just feels contrary to what I’m used to. 😂
@@neilsmith2240 I feel you 😅 rewatch the “transition” section with the gears images. Moving the hips one way while the torso is going the other way only happens for a couple milliseconds. It is NOT something you should try to do. Practically, but hey both are urn forward at the same time - so much easier to do 👍
I know high class instructors usually don't want to critique specific instructions made by specific instructors, but I wish I could see you and Dana Dahlquist discuss your differences. Two major things I've seen from most of his instructions that run counter to your tutorials are that he doesn't want to bring the arms down manualy (supposedly the movement of the body makes that happen), and he want players to land left and seperate immediately (lower and upper body). Of course, both he and you at AMG are too succesful and knowledgable to ignore or dismiss completely, and you both focus on a athletic centered philosophy, so would have been interesting to see your discussions.
@@freddym6643 concepts should be fair game discussion and put u def the🔬 I haven’t heard him say either of those, but I have a lot of other folks - those concepts have been around awhile. I would encourage every golfer like yourself to avoid giving the same weight to what someone says as what someone shows with measured data. The two can quite often be very different.
@@AthleticMotionGolf A youtuber named Jerome Rufin has many lessons with Dana. The videos are up on youtube. He definitely talks about those things here and there, even if it's not the main focus. Also, Dana uses sportsboxai, so I'm sure he would claim his teachings are backed by measured data.
@@freddym6643 that’s great. I don’t know what range of 3D he uses, so I can only speak about the app you mentioned - which doesn’t measure 1 of the 2 concepts you’ve mentioned. We’ve tested it a lot, there’s a reason we choose not to use it.
@@AthleticMotionGolf Dr. Kwon also aligns with the arms moving down naturally, reacting to your kinetic chain. He doesn’t promote actively moving the arms because it could potentially throw off the kinematic sequencing. However, to AMG’s point, most people are so focused on firing the hips they have to focus on actively bringing the arms down to sequence better. All depends on the player!!!
Hi AMG, I'm a bit confused by the part of the video where you explain that the arms drop down and then it's just a rotation of the pelvis and torso. What proportion of hand supination is there then? Thanks for the explanation.
@@michalgoetz1338 we rarely have to mention it to get the player shallow UNLESS they are trying to turn the wheel to the ball - meaning, if you were holding a small steering wheel instead of a club, you do not want to turn the steering wheel towards the ball (to the left for a right hander) at the start of the downswing.
They always say ams are working too hard. This is such a simple body coordination. I recently visited them in their studio. They were perceptive and attentive to every individual student, picking up the flaws and selecting the drills to move each student through that athletic motion to maximize consistency and distance. If you like their RU-vid instruction, you should consider joining the AMG matrix that is a structured sequence of video training with the ability to post your swings for review.
We have the numbers so belief won't have to be part of the answer 🙂 In this video, we show when the hips start to turn back left compared to the upper body. There's a small window in the backswing (transition) where that happens. Now I believe you're asking about the literal distance between the hip and shoulder. At the top to lead-arm parallel in the downswing, the actual distance between the left hip and left shoulder increases by ~1". Keep in mind, that that increase is happening as the rotation separation between the two is getting smaller, not larger. By the time the player reaches impact, that ~1" increase in distance between the hip and shoulder is still there despite the rotation separation shrinking by more than half of where it started at the top. The ~1" distance separation is happening because the shoulders and pelvis are turning on drastically different planes, not because there's a rotational stretch increase between the two.
@@AthleticMotionGolfit’s the truth. Like you said many swing instructors have been fooled by stationary camera angles. Also all you have to do is focus on players right elbow in slow motion from almost any angle and you can really see what you’re talking about.
What Heresy!!! x-factor and x-factor stretch has been correlated to clubhead speed. But so is shark attacks and ice cream sales. You are calling out all the Instagram charlatans!! How dare you tell the truth!! 😂❤ AMG is veritas.
Great explanation but too complicate to follow… it just append another swing though into 100 swing thoughts in the head. You guys just make it way too complicate.
Oh no, the myth busters are at it again :-D In defence to the poor ppl still trying to do this, it certainly looks that way on camera and it has been portrayed that way for so long that it's become the truth even tho it doesnt happen...
@@sirtogii5216 very true! If enough people say something enough times - well it must be true 🤦♂️ Unfortunately for golfers, that describes a lot of golf instruction.
