What happens at the top of the golf swing? The transition!!! This is the magic move of the golf swing and most golfers miss it completely or mess it up ! If you lack power and control you might be missing an critical opportunity to sync up your swing and add more “load” ! If you know how and when to change direction, start your downswing and when to “fire” at the right moment you will hit better shots!!

"Golf teacher" is an understatement. You are an extraordinary "gifted" golf teacher. What a superb explanation of the transition in the golf swing. Thank you. In the line describing your achievements, "Mom" should come first (not last) as it is the most difficult of all accomplishments.

No, she's a golf teacher. A good one for sure. Stop the adulation it's insincere. It's these kind of over the top comments and reactions that ends up putting people on pedestals they fall off of. Just keep it loose and steady just like her golf swing.

Erika, will convert a "hitter" into an incredible "swinger" in record time. PGA teachers love to drag lessons and teaching out forever and ever to just keep making money. It's nonsense!

I watched this video several times. So much resonated with me. Then I ordered your book on Amazon and read it cover to cover. It's like a journeyman's handbook. Something you put in your bag, and take to the range to work on drills and better understand the "natural swing." I so wish I had come across your content years ago. You have a teaching style that makes perfect sense and incorporates more of a person's natural abilities. Absolutely brilliant. Hoping to take a lesson with you someday. Outstanding video and mental cues. "The heave,"...the transition ( a pitcher falling toward the target).

I worked on your tip on less arms and more turn. This is, without question , the best advice I’ve ever heard. Within three swings I was hitting it farther, straighter and with significantly less effort. Every time I quit turning I went to an arm swing and the results were less than ideal. GREAT INSTRUCTION...WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? Thanks so very much, Thomas

Wow, best demonstration of the Step and Swing drill. I used to call it the Baseball drill. You must have been affiliated or originally taught at the Golf Digest Schools/Jim Flick and Bob Toski. I used to do the Step and Swing all the time at the Actual Driving Range, People probably thought I was Nutz. LOL. You Know your a serious Player when you have a Net inside your Home.

Hi Erica love you analogies of the golf swing. The roller coaster and now this. At 74 years old I discovered that if I swing with the power of my upper arms I can feel ‘the fall’ as you describe and it naturally occurs for me as my swing is now set as an automatic rife. How? With my both Vs pointing at my trail shoulder; my trail trigger finger correctly wrapped around my club; and responsive wrists as you showed us in another video; I am pre locked and loaded and ready to ‘fire’ passing my club head ‘bullet’ through the ball. Cheers

Getting out of the transition is something I struggle with. Too often I stand up or early-extend out of a decent "back-swing". I honestly need to focus as much or more on my posture post-contact. And by-the-way, thank you!

Loved this video Erika and the 3 phase concept you presented for the downswing. Two things: First, what muscles groups are being activated to 'cock' the gun ie bring the arms down, move left laterally; second, would have been instructive to see the transition down the line for driver. Thanks in advance for your response.

Thanks Erika..Great Video! I've been practicing the transition this winter. Everyone is different, but I feel that a very slight pause at the top helps me with tempo and gives my body a chance to start the down sequence properly.

This transition piece is good but I think your more recent video with emphasis on straightening the lead leg helps to get the rotation included BEFORE impact.
