Finally! You’re the first person that has explained what to do immediately after you move the arms back. It’s easy to rotate your body without the arms doing much, but no one explains what to do next, i.e., how to get the arms up or how to cock the wrists. Thank you.

The amount of instructors I've asked what happens between the takeaway and backswing and no one really has the answer! Thank you for the missing piece of the puzzle!!

This is quite possibly the best backswing mechanics video I have seen. Been struggling for a long time with my backswing, this has helped me incredibly 👍🏽

Love how detailed you get with it. Short, sweet, and to the point as always. Thanks JKM!!

Thanks JKM !! This is my cure of my depression swing almost 5 months!!

I’ve been overthinking my takeaway the last two months, and this is exactly what I needed. Cheers mate

Thank. You I have made that move incorrectly for years. Most helpful video for me ever

Simple, logical, and very well presented. Excellent video.

Well done .. finally the only move not explained by all the other teachers.

The amount of detail in this video is incredible! Your amazing

I have struggled with this for some reason the whole time I have played golf. This explanation really helps. Thanks

Thanks JKM. You provide helpful details on how to execute the transition of the straight trail arm and wrist into the set position. I am a GOLFTEC student in Cincinnati.

I swear every time I come to your page your newest videos are addressing my exact issues 😅I love it ❤

The comment at 6:20 is crucial. For someone (like myself) who has the lawnmower move and gets stuck, it “feels” as though the arms do absolutely nothing almost apart from the movement described. Great video mate - greetings from Sydney

Excellent

Extremely well explained

I love these detailed explanations by JKM!

Solid video and thanks for being thorough!

Great lesson as always JK. Thx ..

Great video!

Thanks for the lesson, I struggle with this move and I have a tendency to rotate/bend my trail arm to early. I have seen many instructional videos that direct the trail arm be lower in the take away vice what you have directed as level to above lead arm. Your method feels more natural and it keeps the swing on plane. Thanks again.

Great information as always thanks again 👍

Thanks I needed this video! Looks like it’ll fix why I’m laid off at the top tyvm!

it's very helpful, thanks for sharing :D

Great explanation!! Thank you 🙏

Love the check ring!

Awesome explanation, thanks!

Sir.. would you please consider a lesson on not hitting at the ball? I think most players do this making the ball their target. I struggle big time with this issue. You explain things so well please consider. Love ur teaching methods!

The first.. always very informative JKM..

That was so helpful, thank you

Brilliant coaching

crystal clear

Great explanation! I especially like "like you're losing an arm wrestling". I've been rotating my body not enough so correcting these few days, only up to the hip point (before the right wrist twisting). But now I can't hit down. Before this after watching your video on how to hit down, I could make downward angle consistently, but now with this correction of my turn during up swing, I lost the ability to hit down! Now looking for your video on hitting form drills and trying again from scratch😂

Great Video! Ty

Amazing videos. Keep it up!

You explain all your movements so calmly and thoroughly, Jonathan. Love it!! Do you do online instructions too?

Love your videos. I think only thing I would've wanted to see here as well is some drills on how to practice these movements.

Fantastic! You're a very good teacher! I picked this up from one of your earlier backswing videos and it's helped me so much, as I tended to roll my wrists before. I really appreciate the detailed explanation. I've worked this into my backswing resulting in dropped strokes and now I'm playing low to mid-80's regularly. Good stuff brutha!

Great video, what’s the movement like up to the top of the backswing?

Great explanation and Thanks for all the great content. Maybe some content outside on a range with shot tracer. Thank you!

Fantastic. Downswing next please

This was great. Maybe the next lesson relates to the transition from top of back swing. I seem to lose the position and my backswing goes flat and I come too much from the inside. I would love to get a video lesson (II can send you front view and down the line view) and tell me some drills to improve my swing position.

Maybe just add that the purpose of the trail forearm rotation is to set the club on plane, but great stuff!

After you have gotten to the position where your wrist is set, in order to complete the backswing, do u “lift” the club with your trail or lead arm? Thanks!

Is the technique same for drivers? Also, looking forward to next video that completes the backswing!

Would the right wrist bend happen at the same time for driver as well?

Was shocked how much i was rolling my forearms first time i recorded myself. Still find it hard not to.

Should the feeling be club on the bicep and just turn from there and maintain it?? While the left arm over the shoulder is an optical illusion of the camera?

What about the rest of the backswing?

taking way to long to explain things ..repeating yourself too many times..other than that good info

Watching from the UK 🇬🇧 just about to go practice . Love this info and easy to understand accurate breakdown . Any chance you get add a bit finishing off to top of backswing 😬🙏🏻🏌🏻‍♂️

Excellent
