Thanks rackum44!! ~Clay Ballard
Very well explained
I believe you are referring to their axis tilt (tilt of the spine at
impact)? All of the people you mentioned have almost all of their weight on
the left foot at impact. You will notice this when you look at the right
foot. It is coming off the ground through impact and into the release. We
have several weight shift videos in the “Weight Shift” section of the video
player on the website. Check those out, they go into a lot of detail.
Thanks, and good luck! ~Clay Ballard
Why does Tiger, Bubba, and Jamie Sadlowski transfer their weight to their
left side when they start the down swing, and transfer it back to their
right at impact?
Meh…I’ve yet to have someone explain to me as if I were a 4 year old how
the hips generate exponential increases in clubhead speed. The torso and
arms can move independently from the hips because the spine is multiple
vertebrae. To me, why the hips move is to simply open the way to help you
swing the club through to a full finish. Pretty much allowing you to look
pretty at the end instead of truncated like the swing you made at 1:18. How
and what they do should really kinda “just happen”.
I would agree with you David. There is a lot of instruction out there that
would say “rotate your hips as hard as you can to increase clubhead speed”
though. Sounds like you have the right idea. I will talk to you soon. ~Clay

I think the lower body should stay stable and the idea that the hips move
fast in fast swings is to keep the timing right. If you swing slow nothing
will move fast. I’d say it’s all relative
So they say! In reality, The faster the hips, shoulders, and arms,
decelerate (at impact) the more clubhead speed is transferred. If the hips
rotate too quickly, the arms are left behind and the kinematic sequence is
thrown off. This means there is a big loss in distance. Watch my video on
hip speed, and the “learn how to release the club with no effort”. I think
the science behind the second video will surprise you. Good luck with your
game Stanley! I will talk to you soon. ~Clay Ballard
But the faster you turn your hips, the faster your torso turns and the
faster the club whips , it’s part of the ingredients of a good swing.
Wow 109 mph without using your lower body. I have the same swing speed
radar and I’m aware of all the components you mentioned in this video but
my average ss is only 102-105. I turn my shoulders 90 degrees and have
decent lag as I’ve seen in slow-mo so is it because I’m not releasing
properly or just difference in strength? Highest I’ve gotten was 115 mph
which was me swinging as hard as I could so I can’t imagine swinging at
that speed without over exerting myself. Thanks! Love your videos
Thanks. ~Clay Ballard
Good video clay. Thanks again
We have them on our site. Click the link in this video and then go to the
training aids section. They are very useful. They help you to find out the
difference between effort and true speed. A lot of times the faster you try
to swing, the slower the number due to incorrect movements. Good luck with
your game Josh! ~Clay Ballard
where did you get that speed/radar monitor?
