Master the right knee flex in your golf swing with GOLFTEC Coach Connie Chen in this Fix My Fault episode! Learn how the trail knee should move during the downswing for right-handed golfers to boost speed and achieve solid contact.
00:00:00 Start by looking at your swing position at impact, paying attention to the position of the trail knee and hip sway, which can impact the consistency of your strikes and distance control in golf.
00:00:53 You can see how much more tilted Cameron Champ's shoulders are compared to mine, which helps him lower his right shoulder through impact and strike the ball better.
00:01:45 Ensure that your right knee straightens into impact and the club's butt end points to the ground to lower your right shoulder through impact, thus improving your ball striking, and use The Golf Tech app to monitor your progress and draw lines to ensure correct form, specifically focusing on your trail knee position throughout the swing.
🏌️♂️ Straightening the trail knee at impact can significantly improve your golf swing and ball strike.
📱 Using the GOLFTEC App can help monitor and correct your swing technique effectively.
00:00:00 [Music] you're, struggling, with, inconsistent strikes, distance, over, CL, path, issues, a good, place, to, start, looking, at, your swing, as, at, impact, here, so, the, yellow line, here, represents, where, that, trail knee, started, at, address, and, here, at impact, you, can, see, that, trail, KNE, is well, forward, of, that, yellow, line, um, here you, can, see, this, Trail, knee, Flex, number here, it, says, my, trail, KNE, is, flexed, 57° which, is, way, too, much, at, impact, and, what
00:00:30 that's, going, to, affect, is, our, hip, sway so, you, can, see, here, it's, red, uh, red, is obviously, not, a, good, color, um, and, you can, see, here, my, hip, sway, is, one, inch, uh towards, the, taret, which, is, way, way, under of, what, we, need, the, more, we, can, push, the hips, towards, the, target, obviously, the better, the, strike, and, then, the, shoulder tilt, here, as, well, so, when, we, have, that trail, knee, flexed, so, much, that's, going
00:00:53 to, affect, how, much, we, can, tilt, our shoulders, we, can, see, here, my, shoulders so, my, left, shoulder, my, right, shoulder, I way, to, draw, a, line, here, compared, to Cameron Champ, you, can, see, how, much, more, tilted his, shoulders, are, compared, to, mine, so over, here, when, you, have, when, Cameron Champ, has, his, right, leg, straightening through, impact, that's, going, to, help, him actually, lower, his, right, shoulder, down through, impact, that's, definitely, going
00:01:19 to, help, us, strike, the, ball, a, lot, better so, let's, go, onto, the, mat, and, see, how, we can, actually, fix this, okay, so, we, can, start, with, small practice, swings, taking, the, club, back just, past, hip, height, from, here, we're going, to, start, the, down, swing, by focusing, on, that, trail, knee straightening, into, impact, and, then, into the, follow, through, stopping, when, that trail, arm, is, parallel, to, the, ground, um another, drill, we, can, use, is, also, putting
00:01:45 the, this, club, on, our, shoulders, and, then from, here, taking, the, back, swing, just, a little, bit, maybe, halfway, back, then, from here, we, want, to, feel, like, that, right knee, straightening, into, impact, and, then here, at, impact, we, want, that, butt, end, of the, club, to, point, to, the, ground, this, is also, going, to, help, us, lower, that, right shoulder, through, impact, and, that's, going to, help, us, strike, the, ball, a, lot, better
