Foot work

I wanted to give you a lesson in foot work. More specifically how your weight transfers from one foot to the other. This is very important to the timing and tempo of your golf swing. This is how it works: When you begin your swing your weight should be equally distributed between your left and right foot. At the very beginning of the swing, your weight should move slightly to your left foot. After that move, your weight should make a massive move into your right foot. Most people can expect to more 70% of their weight into their right foot. You should feel that your right foot is very heavy. When your arms reach the top of your back swing and your weight is into your right foot, you should feel a transfer of weight from your right foot to your left foot before your arms start down. This is the most critical part of the golf swing and provides an enormous power boost to the golf swing. Once you feel your weight at least 60% in your left foot, it is time to start swinging your arms. You are allowed to swing your arms as fast as your balance allows. If you lose your balance, you must slow down your arm swing until you can maintain your balance. Continue swinging forward until your chest, belt buckle and right knee are pointing at your target. Your weight should be at least 90% on your left foot.
