hips are out pacing the club


Well damn, I thought that was ideal

In all seriousness I appreciate all the feedback, seems like I remember reading that you want your hips to lead, followed slightly by the shoulders, followed slightly by the arms, followed slightly by the hands on the downswing. Basically your hips should be more open than your shoulders at impact. I’ve also read 1,000 articles on swing tips in the last month so probably information overload. I do know that hogan detailed in his book, hands, arms, shoulders, hips on the backswing and reverse it on the downswing. I might’ve misunderstood what he meant though, that’s why I’m asking y’all

Yes you want to start your downswing with your hips but if they fire too fast and turn out too quickly the arms lag behind and that opens the club and causes it to cut across the ball. You want everything in sequence with your body turn.

The hips do lead but the time gap is fractions of a second. Not something most people should consciously try to do.
