Back Foot Slipping

[jmanbooyaa]

Is there a drill or something to practice to help keep my back foot from slipping out in back swing?  Not sure I am phrasing this correctly. Is this a weight distribution not equal causing some inconsistent strikes?

Your back foot slips in the backswing?

Are you transferring any pressure there? Are you rolling it outward?

Do you have a Member Swing topic?

[jmanbooyaa]

I am not really sure. I am assuming i am not putting equal weight at set up and in my backswing is where is is exposed. Could it be me trying to manufacture more power and streching my backswing past where it should be? When i tried to acknowledge and correct it was like my right leg was stuck in mud and my turn was none existent which caused even worse arm only results.

Try maintaining weighting / balance on your forefoot. 
The backswing is a controlled tempo motion.
When you reach your set point at the top of the swing, then fire into the swing.

Some players learn to distribute weight to right heel,
then knee flexes and weight moves to forefoot for push off during weight transfer. 

Are you saying the foot slips on all swings? Or only with longer clubs, driver, FW woods?
Which direction does the foot slip out? Forward? Backwards?

It is a backwards slip that mainly occurs on longer clubs. It does tend to happen with irons not often

OK, so it slips out when you start your downswing, or are you saying it happens when you are in transition at the top of your swing?

By transition, I'm indicating you have started your downswing and then the foot slips.

This is common to arms swinging first, then lower body tries to catch up. 

The pre-shot routine which Rose makes would probably help you.
A slow motion of the transition from the top to impact position,
Rose is feeling the downward motion with weight transfer. 
Catch my drift?

I have been working on a slower more controlled tempo. Could the fact that I place my back right foot(the one that slips) back in my stance be hurting me as well?

I have to confess I tried to visualize what's happening in your swing and I'm at a loss. Can you capture a video of the issue?

[jmanbooyaa]

I can work on getting a video up of the slidding of my back right foot

Some players place their feet with the back foot "in the bucket" persa which is the foot a few inches behind parallel of shoulders. 
If your indicating a wider stance being back foot "Back" further than shoulder width, then Yes, too wide of a stance.
And Yes the foot will slip if weight transfer timing is off...

[jmanbooyaa]

That coould explain it. I have noticed i have gotten a bit more wide on the stance in resent weeks. Once I realize this with my irons I begin to hit the ball crisper. Thanks for all the posts. 

[jmanbooyaa]

my issue seems to be coming from poor balance at set up through backswing. Any tips to improve balance to make more solid contact

You need to exercises.

I don't think that's going to do it.

"iacas" What is your suggestions?

I've posted in the topic and asked to see video. Without seeing a video, we're just guessing.

I don't like to guess.

But I do know that exercise won't really help with your back foot slipping during the backswing.
