RST MOVE 3: THE DOWNSWING
- Move 3, The Downswing, is probably the most misunderstood and misinterpreted move by amateur golfers in the golf swing.
- It must be understood that the downswing is largely an uncoiling motion, or a reaction to the backswing. Our goal must be to rotate the body away from the target in order to allow for centrifugal force to move the club toward the target.
- The proper sequence of Move 3 is as follows:
- Plant the weight firmly by pushing the left heel into the ground
- Pull from the left obliques which will rotate the left hip behind you
- Pull with the left lat to pull the arms back in front of the torso
- Optional: Fire the right arm by extending from the right elbow
- This lesson focuses on your ability to properly transfer your weight into the left side and produce a correct weight transfer.
