Reverse Pivot Golf, What Does It Mean And Is It Important To Fix (Video) - by Peter Finch

What does a reverse pivot golf mean and is it important to fix? A reverse pivot golf, where you can see two reverse pivots during the golf swing, and both the clusters fault and they are important not to fall into the habit of reproducing with every swing. A reverse pivot on the back swing will see the weight rather than moving on to the back foot as you should do in a nice natural motion to actually shift towards the target. So rather than moving back in the spine angle and the weight keeping nice and solid, you reverse pivot towards the target. It normally happens is the right hip spins out and the weight moves onto the left foot. And at the top of the back swing you’ll be in this position. A reverse pivot on the through swing will be this position reversed, so the hips, moving towards the target; and the spine leaning away. So reverse pivot on the back swing is when the hips open up probably a little bit too much. The spine angle tilts and the weight moves over to the left side. The reverse pivot on the through swing is the opposite. When the left hip spins; the weight transfers onto the right foot rather than the front foot and the spine angle leans away from the target.

The easiest way to stop a reverse pivot is to swing back, try and keep the spine straight or even leaning slightly towards the right foot. This exaggerated position should stop that movement. So swing away, almost feel like the spine is leaning away from the target and again to stop the through reverse pivot, swing through, move the weight forward and almost feel like the spine is leaning towards the target. They are both exaggerated positions, but if you are reverse pivoting during the swing, it will lead to multiple swing faults. So in golf the reverse pivot is very important, if you are doing it you need to identify it and then apply the following fixes, if you want to hit more consistent golf shots. 2014-10-16
