This foot work is true fundamental for golf swing. A few talk about it, but you are the only person who shed light on it. I have tendency to have too much weight on my toes of rear foot in backswing and too much weight on my toes of front foot in downswing and follow through. I don't feel smooth swing. Definitely I will try and get feeling at garage, golf course and range are closed now in Ontario. Appreciate put it up.

What an education you are giving the utube world! I want to thank you! I watch your videos over and over and pick up new information every time! I hope you start doing seminars in the states cause I would like to attend! Keep up the great work! And Thanks again! Cheers🥃⛳️🏌🏼‍♂️

I'm so glad I found his videos. I'm getting so much out of them in such a short time. The other video on the back elbow needing to be tucked in has helped me get much more solid contact. Thanks Russell!

THIS VIDEO IS PURE GOLD !!! This IS the golf swing!!

By far the best tuition channel I’ve come across wish I’d found earlier I’ve working on some swing changes this winter and have struggled with some movements and almost abandoned trying to improve........but Russell explains and demonstrates movements I find easy to understand and replicate.....I’ve watched tons of pros on you tube but Russell for me is by a mile the best .....good work Russell and keep it going

Great drills. I have been working on my weight shift and have been doing it the wrong way. Started doing it in my garage and it works much easier and better. Taking drill to our club today, to practice, quite sure it will take time to incorporate into in my swing. Thanks for all of your drills, my handicap is going down. Bob, Myrtle Beach, SC.

Best clear straight forward sincere instructor by far for me. Brilliant!

For more than hundreds of KZfaq instruction I have seen , final you are the only one that have explain the weight transfer clearly .. Bravo

Every lesson or piece of advice you give helps improve my play. I really appreciate you here on youtube. Especially during this pandemic when it is difficult to be around others safely. Can't say thank you enough but, THANK YOU!

It absolutely works to perfection.. I’m 7.0hdcp and shot 3 over at my club with 1 triple bogey the third round trying it. Thanks!!!

Timothy, no one has spoken about footwork better than you.brilliant.

best explanation i hear so far and im working on this for a long time, thank you Russell, already tried this on the range, massive improvement. cheers

This is the first time I have heard weight to the front heel and it sounds as it will get the hips open which I need more of Thanks and keep the videos coming

Thanks...this tip helps stop "early extension", an instructor-created term I often have to deal with but no one solved it the way this lesson does. Able to compress the ball like never before.

Russell thank you - your detailed insight has given me the answer to my latest swing problem and now when I warm up I’m looking for that right heel pressure going back and left foot pressure earlier in the down swing - certainly improved my consistency and smash factor. You are a great coach!

Wow what a video,this has showed me what im doing right & what im not. I can now work on a few things to take it to the next level.

I have suffering exactly from that my weight is on the left toe at and after impact. Having hard time to master the timing. Thanks for identifying this problem and drills to train my timing

Thank you very much. I've had the problem of "early extension" for some time and this is probably the one that does the trick.

Great video. The most insightful piece is the right toe to left heel. My only question is you said several times you need to slide to back leg as you are turning your hips. I've always been told not to slide or rock back, that it should just be your hips turning. Can you provide your thoughts on this? Thank you!

I agree about the importance of good footwork . If you don't get the weight shift right you are probably not going have much power through the ball.

Best lesson in footwork!! Well done once again.

Thumbs up..your explanation is so straight forward and easy to understand..great job..keep it up...

Thank you. Nice explanation of the process.

I love your simple explanations. Excellent.

Terrific instruction. I needed this. Another great drill to practice. Tk's Russell.

Fantastic, so easy to understand & helpful. Really enjoy your tips. Thanks Timothy

Another well explained video Russell

Great lesson Russell.

Best golf lower body and footwork explanation available.

This is such a difficult move Russell...for me at least. I have ingrained bad weight shift into my swing for years now, and getting that right toe--to--left heel swing is a mark of a good swing. Hardly ever do you see a bad swing with great weight shift. Thanks for the excellent lesson.

Wow great video thank you for taking time and putting this up

Spot on. Thank you. Great as always

What a fantastic video, thankyou

Great to hear advice that doesn't just focus on club head positions ! The explanations provided will ensure good club work when the engine of the swing moves as described. Cheers Russell again

Great explanation!

Your explanations are very easy to follow thanks for that! Are you shifting your weight on a 50-75 yard wedge shot or are u keeping it more centered or even favoring the left side ? (for a right hand golfer ) I am new to your sight.Do you have any videos on green side bunker play or the wedge game ?

Nice and clear 👍

been having a problem with this and didn't understand it - from behind on video it showed I am too balanced and end up with a half right sole on show and left toe in ground showing the spikes on that heel after the shot. It looks like I am too far away from the ball after impact (logically) and falling slightly forward but I feel balanced. Thanks for the clear explanation Russell, hero. Range opens at 12 tomorrow and after watching this it has stopped a visit to shanksville - and we all know where that leads ;-)

Excellent.

Great explanation. Now i am subscribing.

again a great video many thanks

Great video from way back Russ, a topic you could revisit perhaps? Only noticed you rocking back on your lead heel in the video yesterday, i wondered why this occured. My footwork is clunky to say the least and I can't wait to give this a go.

Great video

Brilliant Resonates with me

Thank you for the content. I am now a subscriber. I like your teaching method. Too bad you’re not closer for lessons.

What about head position? Thanks

At the time of impact should my right arms and hip be more dominant or my left hip?

I’m having a lot of difficulty with getting my weight to the left heel. I seem to be up on my toes at impact and then get flippy. Any tips?

Hi Russell, I’ve noticed you and most others slightly flare out your lead foot. Mine is always pointing straight. Could this be the reason my lead leg often “collapses” on my backswing? Great vid too👍🏼

Awesome tips! I tend to have my back heel lifted fairly high at impact, would that be a problem? It seems like most pros have their back heel only slightly lifted and not 4-5 inches off the ground at impact like myself. Thanks Russel!

Hi Russell. When I do actually get to do that sort of closed hip bump to my lead side, I feel very shut off from the target and "heavy" over my lead leg, and then really struggle to rotate around to face the target out of that position.....not sure why. You go on to say that we should feel all this weight on your lead thigh/leg/foot, which is fine, but then, as you come down into impact, you feel your weight (re)distribute between trail toe and lead heel (most of my pressure feels in the right toe). Do you really mean then that we should go from feeling a lot/most of our pressure in our lead thigh/leg in transition to most of it being in our trail toes close to impact? Weight/pressure moving back from lead side to trail side through impact? I doubt you mean this but its a bit confusing and I'm just trying to understand. Thanks so much for all the work you put into helping us.

Russell...I'm struggling with too much weight shift to the right at the beginning of the swing. On video I can see my first move before anything moves is a sway of body and head. Any suggestions?

Will you be at the 2019 PGA Merchandise show in Orlando in January?

So why am I spinning out although I try to shift early to the left heel. Only happens with driver...

Very good👍

Does this not contradict what you say in more recent videos? There you talk so much about starting the downswing with hip rotation (not simply moving the weight over to the left foot.) N.B. I love you instructions which have already helped me a lot.

What is drill to stop finishing on left toe and instead finish on left heel?

Ugh I struggle with this. Horrible round yesterday realizing my weight shift is off. Practicing today and can hit the ball solidly doing the step drill(or 1 foot drill) but go back to regular swing and can't seem to get my weight to the front side. Can't quite figure out what is going on during the normal swing that is crossing me up. Help?

Is this dude recommending hip swap?

My sound was not clear so l missed some things In backswing is weight shifting into inside of right heel ? Are you narrowing stance based on club you are using ?

May weight gets outside my back foot when I try this.

Also, how can you rotate your lead hip out of the way properly if most of your weight is on it. Surely the rotation of the left hip must begin with a more or less unweighted lead leg?

Hi Russel. Just discovered you on KZfaq. Like your stuff. Do you do personal lessons..? If so, how can I get in contact to arrange. Thanks.

good 111

Many golf instruction videos (some from renowned coaches) speak about holding onto the external rotation of the trail knee as the lead hip and knee rotate away towards target at the start of the downswing (a sort of squat where momentarily your knees are separating from each other as your hips square up to the ball target line) You do not mention this. Is this a move you do not subscribe to?

Good video, without good footwork, the golf swing collapses.

The Golf God speaketh.

If u lift right toe early then I top the ball.

Did u get my videos Russel? Fb messenger , IG

👍👍👍👍

You can talk slow?
