The step drill at a young age! Fascinating how natural that is and someone in diapers proves it without all the brain clutter to confuse it.Wish I had started at that age. Competition for Charlie Woods
Yes Sir - and- IMO - and the results of your next million shots will work out the same. Again IMO , that is about the worst advice anyoneSee, that is why I like Kwon. He knows his stuff, but doesn’t try to teach the golfer biomechanics. He just developed drills to get golfers moving in a more fluid and natural way that aligns with what he has seen is in his biomechanic studies. He has said numerous times that he is not a golf teacher but that his theories and drills will help you.
I am not to far into his teachings, but I do like the rope drill in terms of finding a good and repeatable swing plane. But if I do his drills without hitting balls shortly after, I can get wonky. I was swinging a rope all week and the first 10 balls at the range today were awful.

During the time of silence from you yesterday, I was thinking you might have went away and took your agenda with you. Today we find we are not so fortunate.Yes Sir - and- IMO - and the results of your next million shots will work out the same. Again IMO , that is about the worst advice anyone
could ever give a golfer and extremely detrimental to learning a correct golf swing. That rope illustration is 180 degrees opposite the correct swing . Sorry, but it just doesn’t work that way - exactly the opposite !
Dominant hands?
Look at this swing!
I would mix the drills up some. I tend to drill some hit balls, drill another drill hit balls, etc. That way it ingrains the objective. I have been doing some rope drills, kettlebell drills, step drills etc. I played 3 sim rounds yesterday and swung some of my most consistent shots throughout all 3 rounds. IMO these drills are very good, but too much of a drill can cause adverse affects.See, that is why I like Kwon. He knows his stuff, but doesn’t try to teach the golfer biomechanics.

I'm jealous
I am so sorry to disappoint you !During the time of silence from you yesterday, I was thinking you might have went away and took your agenda with you. Today we find we are not so fortunate.

It is all good. Glad you are posting. The self-exposition of errors takes care of itself and no need to call it out. Back to Kwon who actually gives proven evidence...I am so sorry to disappoint you !

Apparently, this kid hasn’t been taught about leg drive, ground forces and ground reaction . I can only hope he isn’t.
Good post. Just like no one size golf swing fits all, not one size fix, fixes all. Some lack good hand and arm movement and others lack good body movement. I was watching SC videos and noticed that he taught some of the same things that Kwon teaches just from a slightly different angle. SC had some stepping/walking drills to promote more body centered swing instead of swaying swing.Yes, there are different ways to swing a club. I think several work, depending on that individual. And all methods have much in common, because I always look for commonality even though some will differ. One method is driving the hands and the lower body supports by allowing it to do so, and the other method uses the lower body as the major power source. And that's in general. Since I am doing more along the lines of Kwon and my son is doing more along the lines of dominant hands, I get to see both methods taught.
Ignore option keeping me sane.
Understanding how to use the legs is so important. Understanding that there isn't just one way to use the legs is even more important. I wish I had more time to take in some of the longer videos.
Not Dr. Kwon related, but watching the lower body action here is awesome.
Wilco's recentering looks to be about an inch, it's there though and it's obvious that it allows him to rotate his thigh towards the target. Think about Dr. Kwon and his ideas, recenter - hips rotate against closed shoulders - hands drop - let it go.Wow - dude got some long legs too. It amazes me how someone like that can get the club back at the ball at a decent address position. I would probably miss the ball entirely
Well- no need to wonder any longer ! I will explain it to you ! Since and when the clubhead is pulled back around your body out of eyesight it becomes the task of our DOMINANT RIGHT HAND to measure the location and distance to a golf BALL ONLY 1.680 inches in diameter and to hit it consistently on the middle of grooves only 2 inches long in the center of the face of an iron being pulled down on an inclined arc from a distance of approx. 10-12 feet from the top of the BS - not to mention extremely high clubhead speeds !!!!Wow - dude got some long legs too.

Your wasting your time and are wrong on so many points. Back to Kwon...Well- no need to wonder any longer ! I will explain it to you !

That leaves you approx. 1/4 inch on each side of the grooves for either a shank or a toe hit . Those are very close tolerances that ONLY the humans dominant hands can accomplish. The legs , hips , nose , toes , elbows , knees, feet, shoulders nor any other part of the body can accomplish such a difficult task —-try as hard as you might !
Sorry, but FACTS can not be denied . It is what it is !
Some golfers build an amazing amount of speed and force. My youngest son was at a pro tournament last year and was standing directly behind Zalatoris and videoed him. My son told me you cannot pay attention to how their swings look on TV as it doesn't even come close to the actual swing. I watched the video and it was simply amazing at how Zalatoris swung his driver being a somewhat slim guy. It looked like his spine was going to snap in half and like he had used every ounce of everything in his body to swing with. It just looks so violentWilco's recentering looks to be about an inch, it's there though and it's obvious that it allows him to rotate his thigh towards the target.

It's almost insulting how effortless Wilco makes that much speed look. Granted, he's only 21 and hasn't had time for the weight of the world to bludgeon him.

100% accurate, IMO.Yes, there are different ways to swing a club. I think several work, depending on that individual.

Well Sir - please tell me where I am wrong and what I need to correct ? You say that I am wrong , but you provide no evidence why i am !Your wasting your time and are wrong on so many points. Back to Kwon...
