ABOUT COACH CAROLIN
----------------------------------------
Hey Golfers, great to have you here! Let me tell you a little bit about myself.
My golf career is marked by a trajectory from a skilled amateur to a seasoned professional, competing on the LPGA/SYMETRA Tour. During my amateur days, I attended IMG Academies, training under the close guidance of the world's best Leadbetter instructors. I continued to thrive while playing Division 1 golf at the University of Central Florida, holding the captain's title throughout my senior year. After finishing my college career, I went straight to LPGA Q-school, where I secured my tour card for the LPGA/SYMETRA Tour. During my rookie year, I joined the cast of the popular Golf Channel Show "Big Break," showcasing my competitive skills on national television. During my professional playing career, I was always drawn toward the technical intricacies of the golf swing, often helping my friends and fellow players improve their swings.
Now let me help you start playing the BEST GOLF OF YOUR LIFE!

@@coachcarolin Hi Carolin! - brilliant, thanks! - just back from the range and I was truly amazed what a difference the way I hit the ball just by using the lead leg drill you describe. Still have some work to do completing a full backward leg around impact with the lead leg so I'm really looking forward to completing this next complementary part of your drill, both here at home and then at the range! I broke my trail ankle last year and repeating the "forward - back" motion over the past 2 hours has today certainly helped that ankle's suppleness (I am 74 !)

Hello Coach Carolin, I have known that my hips and knees have been the source of my swaying. I called it having "Elvis Hips"! Which resulted in wayward ball flights that cost me unnecessary strokes on every round. After much searching, until know, I haven't found a good solution. Thank you for the great explanation of this controlled technique. I found and watched your video yesterday. Then watched it again this morning, before going to the driving range to practice it, before taking it to the golf course in a few days. I just returned from the range and I am very pleased to report that it worked wonderfully! It improved my ball contact and ball flight accuracy and I gained a little more distance. We are playing in two days and can't wait to utilize it on the course. I know that if I apply your technique properly it will shave a few shots off my score. :) Thank you for sharing your knowledge of the game with us. I just subscribed to your channel and gave this video a BIG THUMBS UP!

@@coachcarolin We played today and your Knee Tip worked GREAT! My Tee Shots were consistently landing in fairways or on greens; and my longer approach shots were tighter. We played a different course today than last week. The course length was similar, yet today's Course Rating was 3 strokes more and the Slope was 14 points higher. Although today's course was more difficult, my score today was 5 strokes lower than my score from last week. It is amazing how much your Knee Technique has improved my game. 🥳 Thank you, THANK you, THANK YOU!

Thank you Carolin for your video. I think your are explaining one of my swing problems. As a child, I learned golf in the UK. Coaches told me to practice in France because I had aptitudes. I played few years later at high school, but my swing became less and less consistent (sliced, hooked or toped balls) and I stopped. Few decades later, I would like to practice golf again, for that I am back to the basics. Yours videos are very helpful, thanks a lot.

This video was HUUUUUUUUGE for me - life changing! I have known for a long time not to sway, but just wasn't sure I was doing it right. I felt inconsistent and too reliant on timing. And felt that I was maybe loosing power. THIS DID IT FOR ME! In fact, the impact was so big my clubs feel lighter than before as I'm swinging it more effectively. And the game felt consistent and easy. And I gained lots of distance too! I'm really not exaggerating that this was a HUGE change to my game. THANK YOU! Now if only you could fix my inconsistent driver swing - my clubface is not right (I don't hit up enough, and not straight).

Thanks going to try this on the range to see if ball speed goes up I hit it far now but could use more and should be easier to be more consistent with a swing than doesn’t involve shifting weight back so much.

@jeffhowell4891 2 ай бұрын

Ironically, this week, I just started trying to use my lead knee more to get a bigger turn off of the ball. It's very hard to time the strike when your lead knee goes inward, especially substantially. I really like this thought of forward with the lead knee. My ball striking really started to improve prior to seeing your video by engaging my knee but it felt a little awkard to me. Playing around on a pressure board, your thought of lead knee forward is BRILLIANT! I just love your communication style. Very simple and usable. If you have time, I'd love to see you demonstrate the proper way to transfer weight on a pressure board! I have a downshift board and I am starting to use it more often to improve my weight shift timing. My thinking is trail heel (back) to lead ball of the foot (forward), but I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks again for all of your content on this platform!

@coachcarolin 2 ай бұрын

Awesome! Thanks so much for watching and the kind words! I am so glad its helping! Yes def will make a weight shift video for you all! :) Over all to answer your question, i like your weight shift you are describing for a draw, for a fade it would be the lead heel in the downswing. So weight shift can help optimize shot shapes so there is not ONE perfectly correct way :)

@jeffhowell4891 2 ай бұрын

@@coachcarolin PS- lead knee out (for me) makes it so much easier to get into my trail heel on the way back. You are so smart and your communication of skills makes it much easier to apply. You also just really peaked my interest in how lead heel weight positioning in the downswing/throughswing can influence shot shape. Makes total sense. Would love to see more of your content. Especailly including these weight transfer dynamics.

@mjb8274 2 ай бұрын

Hi Carolin. I think your knee action on the backswing is on point. But I recently watched a Nick Faldo vid where on the downswing the trail knee goes toward the target rather than out. It seems to help with rotation and get that "knees together" finish. Thoughts?

@coachcarolin 2 ай бұрын

Yes, as we are adding upper body rotation and lower body transition to the motion the trail knee will eventually move forward and toward the target :)

I will agree that swaying out the right knee during the backswing is not good. But other than that, have you seen the swings of Bobby Jones, Arnold Palmer, Ray Floyd? There are GREAT players who violate what you are preaching. Stop institutionalizing the swing; it hurts many a golfer from playing his/her best.
