I just rewatched this video:
and realized that I do not do this move...at least consciously...
When I try to mimic it, it seems a bit unnatural to me...
I never really used my hips (consciously) in both my baseball swing and golf swing...which may be why I was always a singles hitter...with lack of home run power!
I was always told that I was swinging with all arms...thankfully I have strong arms to compensate...however, I feel like if I can perfect this move...I can untap some serious power...
@Crispy76 I can attest to the power that is lost without using the big muscles. I've recently just started incorporating the concept of moving the tailboane toward the target. Currently, I'm only getting it moving forward in the down swing and that not very consistent yet. HOWEVER, when I do connect with the ball well, on the course, I've started to see massive distance increases. I mean getting 200 yards out of a 4 iron a couple times! As I said, I don't have the control I would like yet but these strikes offer a lot of hope. It feels like I have weapon I don't fully know how to use yet and I need to just keep practicing to learn to work with it.
It reminds me of a time when, I was a young plumber. I moved from the Milwakee right angle drill to the Hole Hawg. When I first started using the Hole Hawg, that thing nearly threw me the ladder a few times. But after I learned to give it the respect it deserved and learned to use it properly, it became my favorite drill!
