Thank you

You guys are amazing when are you going to get a regular show on the golf channel?

Another awesome. Thanks

Great, hope I can have my swing analysed too. Great job, keep it up !

Can't agree more. This would be one of the best instructional video of all times on the game of golf! And covers the hip rotation concept in a manner that has never been explained so well.

With all the golf instruction on KZfaq, it’s hard to believe that a single video could be so much more impactful than anything else. I’ve watched a couple thousand golf videos over the last couple years and I keep coming back to this. I’ve never seen anyone address the topic of the details of these motions, at all. Using gears and those movement graphs, it couldn’t be clearer. As you rolled through the pro graphs and it all clicked, my mouth was hanging open. I totally misunderstood the golf swing until I watched it. A real holy s$%# moment for me. I literally watched this video, practiced with my camera TWICE, and went out to hit the best golf shots I’ve ever played. For years people have said my swing looks great and instructors have been all over the place with suggestions. The moment I watched this video, it was OBVIOUS to me that my setup with hips behind my ankles was why I was moving forward and crowding the ball, preventing rotation. Once I started trying to replicate the sequence of back and forward they talk about here in relation to the swing stages, I realized that it was EXACTLY what I do when I throw a baseball. It’s a way more natural movement than the “weight back on backswing, weight forward on swing,” crap I was doing before. I want to give you guys a giant hug too. Literally the single most useful video on clarifying the golf swing, by a large margin.

Dumb question about hips behind ankles. I used to keep my weight on my toes until I read Hogan’s book and he recommends weight on your heels. If you guys are getting your hips over your ankles in the setup, where are you putting the weight on your feet?

Anything to help my shitty swing

Thank you so much!!

You’re not psycho!! Haha thanks for the kind words

@@AthleticMotionGolf Great video. I'm wondering if you guys have any drills you recommend to start to feel the correct movement in my hips. Thanks!

I feel that... Just so difficult to implement it, 1000 balls at 1/2 speed will help I'm sure

thanks!!!

Thanks so much...we've never seen it discussed before either. :)

Acknowledgement, where acknowledgement is due, Mike Malaska, Eric Cogorno, Jonathon Taylor & Russell Heritage are all golf coaches who have described pelvic rotation this way but I would suggest that the AMG guys give the clearest and most concise description of the ‘ideal’ / pro level pelvic rotation I’ve seen. Their use of visuals and ‘gears’ to demonstrate this is just fantastic!

@@steviesynapse thanks brother🙏

There will always be haters, no matter how good the content is. Hope AMG doesn’t take it personally. They are helping thousands of golfers. The haters don’t know what they’re missing!

Probably other golf instructors seeing lost income 😒

great!

We really appreciate you watching!

Absolutely amazing well explained video...thank you !!

Agreed!

Agreed !!!

Truly amazing. Blows away any other competition!

hahah awesome!

Thank you sir!!!!!!

Wow, thank you bud!🙏

I don't know if it's the timing of it for me but I have to agree. This is one of the very best videos I've seen.

Don't give up!! :)

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the very kind words🙏

@@AthleticMotionGolf is the fix for adding shin tilt at address simply bending your knees more in your address posture?

No the fix is ankle bend not knee bend

glad you enjoyed it :)

Months trying to fix this same problem, and this information was a keystone in putting everything together. Thank you gentlemen, for taking the time to provide us with these videos, I wish I could express how much it means.

Awesome! Let us know how it goes

Great!!

HOLY COW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great job!!!!

Hahaha yes. No doubt !

We see it all the time! It's pretty eye opening to say the least.

So, basically “Bend your knees” to get some forward lean in your shins so your hips are more over your ankles at setup? Or is it more of a “leaning forward” with the lower body to get that forward Bend in the shins?

@@sandylake304 Most golfers already have enough knee bend, John did in this video. It has more to do with some ankle bend and getting that angle to the shins👍

@Chris Campbell yessir, he would be one of many good examples👍

We're going to try to do more like this. These take a LONG time to do so hopefully folks enjoy them enough to keep making them.

100% agree with Jerry. Superb

Yes please keep them coming

He did a great job👏

Still working for you? If you don't mind what specifically were your swing thoughts that worked for you. I've been struggling trying to implement this...

@@bradallen9551 imagining my hips moving back and forward on that horizontal line while rotating instantly added 30+ yards on all my clubs. Hit it straighter too.

@@Koolmoto Are you focusing on like a central point in between your two hips that's moving up and down the line?

@@bradallen9551 yes just like the graphic showed in the clip rotating around a center point

For some reason I feel like you’re not a pga pro

@@MC-mi2zf He probably means pga teaching pro

It’s a joke Cali 😂😂😂

:)

Great tip! Thank you!!

Same!

When I was taught to setup to the ball, I was told to sit down like I was sitting on a stool. Yikes. I’ve heard Mike and Shaun say it’s like “looking over a fence,” as you bend from the waist. What’s crazy is that I’ve seen 4 or 5 pros and none of them corrected this super basic flaw in my setup that was clearly the cause of my standing up at impact, crowding the ball, flipping, and lack of rotation.

I tried the stack and tilt. If you want to save your knees, skip this method.

@@randalldavis1068 thanks for the reply.

thanks!

Why the toes? I would think to keep the hips back you should feel it in the heels?

@@joehalwax8770 hips forwrd, more weight on the toes

yessir he did :)

Not sure the terminology matters as long as you're moving this way😊

Not I think this is important. The hips don't rotate, they move in response to actions of the femoral head. I think it's easier to "rotate"by concentrating on the part of the anatomy that's involved. This, for me, an old timer with a Titanium semi-pelvis, makes opening the hips and the pelvic tilt a natural opposite & equal response to what the clubbed is doing. Thoughts? pk

Peter Kennedy I think the point of the video is that the hips don’t “open.” If the sacrum is stationary, and the hip joint is moved in what is perceived as a rearward direction, the fact that it is connected to the sacrum by the hip bones means the hip joint will be rotating around the sacrum. If the sacrum is stationary, the hip joint cannot move straight back, whatever nature of the hip joint or the force or motion applied to it. If you attached a ball to a string attached to a stationary point, and applied force to the ball, in any direction other than one toward the fixed point or directly away from it, the ball will rotate around the fixed point. The hip joints rotate around the sacrum all while the whole apparatus moves to the right and then the left.

Actually, while it might be better if AMG called the pelvis the pelvis consistently, and didn’t sometimes call it the hips, the video makes it damn clear what they are talking about, so no harm, no foul. Not all golfers are medical men, and I bet most people call that area down below the waist the hips, not the pelvis.

@@apfhugh4446 exactly, although the "whole apparatus moves to the right" as you say is just barely to the right (see pro's movements starting at 9:12ish). They could put up a skeleton first and show "mid sacrum" so that is their midline term from there on out.

I know! I've watched it like 6x! Lol
