When people are swinging the golf club, there are such things as good head movement. And that’s what we already discussed in some of the previous videos. We’re not talking about specifically what you’re doing with the head. It is more what you’re doing with the body. And if you have a look at some of the best sports strikers in the world, Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy, they have definite dips within their head position throughout the downswing. Now what will that mean and what does that actually do? Because just simply dropping your head during the downswing, that doesn’t automatically mean you’re going to hit good shots. What they’re doing within their swings to help improve their power and to help improve their ball striking.

Well, what they’re doing, as you see the head move downwards during the downswing, say, Rory McIlroy. The head is moving downwards, but what you’ll also see is the knee is starting too deep slightly, starting to brace downwards into the ground. And the spine angle to actually start increasing during the start of the downswing. Now what Rory is doing there, what Tiger is doing, is using ground forces to help give more power to the golf shot. So as the weight moves down and off to the left hand side, the head dips down slightly as the pressure is applied down into the ground, as that pressure is applied down into the ground, they’ll have to draw energy upwards, move their hips through in upwards, through the point of impact, and then explode up through the shot. So that head dip down, is a symptom of what is going on with the rest of their body. It’s not just a case that the head drops down, but if you are looking to build up that ground force, those certainly can be a big benefit. So it’s getting into the setup, moving on to the top of the swing, using those ground forces on the way down to explode upwards as you hit the shot. And it will give that extra bit of power, but it’s not an easy move to master. So if you are going to take this down to the course, give it a practice first. 2016-10-25
