I've been playing around, and I realized I can't feel my body coiling or having any resistance at all. I normally just have to swing with my arms, which I know isn't a good thing. But I've tried taking the club lower to the ground, winding up more, but I'm not sure what I'm doing? I can't feel anything on my right leg, and when people have to release their left leg when they are older, I don't even feel the need to move my legs at all, but in my backswing I just fall to the right. Should I just wind up in the position on setup? Or should I wind into my right leg? I don't know what to do?

I need tips please!


 
 


Make sure your weight doesn't get on the outside of your right foot on the backswing. Weight should stay on the INSIDE of your right foot on the backswing.

You should be able to feel the inside of both of your thighs coiling(the muscles stretching). If not you might have too much hip rotation on the backswing. Is your right foot perpendicular to the target? You should be able to feel your back muscles coiling too. If you can't feel that you're just not getting enough shoulder turn.

this is th tip that really helped me it should work for you.first chin up in set-up,then as you swing back keep left arm straight and put left shoulder as close as you can to under your chin.when i do this i know i am fully coiled and ready to start back down.

Here ya go ...

This is a really good training video. It gives you exactly the feeling you want when making a golf shot.

    • Day 121: did a bit of mirror work with my driver. Working on shortening the backswing.
    • Day 305 - Grip and backswing work. Full swings were bothering the hip a bit. 
    • Day 56 - 2024-11-15 Light day. Lots of catch-up work. Checked the grip to make sure I wasn't compensating there, and did a little backswing work.
    • Day 197 (15 Nov 24) - Played in the Friday men’s group outing - blustery conditions in play (wind gusting 10-20; spotty pop up misting rain; temps in the mid 50’s), so it was a good day to work on course management.  Solid round of 83 (41/42) - 7 GIR, total 32 putts - included 10 pars (3 being up and downs), a dbl and triple bogie.  
    • Have been on a mid to low 80’s roll of late - today was no different with an 83 (41 front / 42 back).   Played in the Friday men’s group outing - blustery conditions in play (wind gusting 10-20; spotty pop up misting rain; temps in the mid 50’s), so it was a good day to work on course management, delivering 7 GIR, total 32 putts - included 10 pars (3 being up and downs), a dbl and triple bogie.  Local course starting to get that winter feel - wet areas wetter, thin grass thinner, greens  trickier.
