I have to say the second, because it stimulates the elbow being always in front of the body.

What about the lead elbow. Is it pointed at the target? What position should the lead arm be in to start the swing? How does it move throughout the swing?

thank you so much for the ultimate compliment! And thank you for taking your time to watch!

let me know how it goes!

thank you so much! Let me know how it goes!

Glad you enjoyed!

thanks doc!!!

The dominant arm (normally the trail arm) can get you in so much trouble on the backswing! hope this helps everybody get their backswing on the path of the least amount of manipulation through impact!

​@@GolfPitt yeah, my right hand just can't wait to yank that club shaft over the top! 😂😢

that’s fantastic to hear! Thank you for watching!

will defitnely discuss this!! thank you!

Thank you so much! I appretiate that! Your spot on tension that is not anything good to have in the golf swing. at your set up position, get your elbows close together and pretend there was a balloon that was blowing up between them and you have to keep it in there. Anytime someone is trying to do something new. It is possible that tension kicks in. The elbows should be soft and together! Thank you so much for watching!

Thank you!!!

that is great you’re finding the recipe for your swing! This is your year! Your spot on, and the connection is a result of sequence. Sequences of the backswing, or downswing players will be stuck playing catch-up, the rest of the way. One of our Training Aides is the momentus it is that 2 pound heavy club and swinging that club in slow motion not full speed and stoping at key points is so good for the golf swing! Thanks for watching! Let me know what you need for your journey to break par !

@@GolfPitt thanks ive subscribed and going to watch more of your great videos shot par a cpl times last year but in 4bbb so dont count! shot 4 over in medals and break 80 most times,but im 64 yo so i need continued good health!

Sounds like you know it all .

@@johnaustin635 The only things i know about golf are 1 that great players learnt as weak kids and most golfers learnt as strong adults 2 Every good golfer can bounce a ball on a wedge most golfers never practice or even attempt skill drills The rest is just conjecture thank you for taking the time to read it

Thank you! That is because I am the other instructor of Porzak golf! Adam and I are best friends and have been teaching golf side-by-side for the last 12 years, changing games! He’s the best and I am lucky to learn from him every day! This is a supplemental channel that will coincide fluently with everything we teach there! Thank you so much for watching!

I thought you look familiar!😊 Now I have two favorite Golf KZfaq channels!

that’s a great question! I would probably put it between 3 and 6… tension is never a good thing in the golf swing. This feeling is certainly something that could cause too much tension. The most common issue i see when doing this is hyper extend the trail arm and keep stiff and locked too long. The trail arm should stay soft and in to the top as it folds. The lead arm will stay straighter. And maybe feel pinched in from the lead peck! Great question thanks for watching A great way to think about it is at your set up position have someone put a balloon in between your elbows and blow it up until it just touches your arms. You would need to have enough tension to keep the balloon in there.

Soft but heavy! think Hogan called it live tension! golfs crazy, active but in active! I like to feel they slightly resist or move milliseconds after body engine/ground pressure starts swing as this is how a weak kid would start swinging a heavy object

@@GolfPitt 🙏

So I think the best way to feel it is to put a glove under your lead armpi in between your peck and your armpit and use that to move your left arm, which then moves your hands and club. put it way up there in the armpit

@@GolfPitt Thanks Mike, You are AWESOME Instructor.....been playing golf for 50+ years, but always initiated the backswing/takeaway with the hands, arms followed, then shoulders turned. TODAY, been switching over to shoulders move first/initiate and hands/arms are along for the ride (as you/Adam & so many recommend/teach). TRIED your SUGGESTION and think it is the ANSWER!!! Weird thing was, standing straight up and holding club across shoulders, I could move left shoulder across to left, no issues. Then leaning over into golf posture, w club still held across the shoulders, could turn left shoulder left w no issues. BUT, put a club in my hand and club on ground, then try to turn left shoulder to start swing and it gets all wonky, like my brain and motor skill disconnect....looked like Charles Barkley trying to swing club, lol. THANKS AGAIN

yes!!

coming right up! just remember the downswing is a result of the backswing and where the player is. if you get a better more connected backswing the downswing gets very simple! accelerate the hands and open up the hips! the hip and grip! i will definitely get some content on it for you! thanks for watching!

appretiate you! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

hi lars! hope you are well!!

haha you spied him. we love giving blood because it is so simple and it sets off a domino effect of presetting good things to happen in the trail arm during the backswing. The trail arms role ( or lack of role) is so important to getting on the path to the least amount of manipulation! thanks for watching!
