Kinetic Chain In The Downswing (Simple Drill)

Описание: How to stop rushing the golf swing. The Kinetic Chain - The sequence in which we accelerate our transition into the downswing is of utmost importance.

This is one of the true fundamentals of almost every elite golfer’s swing. The downswing must be uncoiled from the ground up for power, to be the most efficient and to generate our optimum clubhead speed.

According to biomechanical graphs, Ernie Els and Jim Furyk have almost identical acceleration patterns! The downswing sequence is as follows:

1. Forward rotation of the hips
2. Unwinding of the torso
3. Lead arm accelerating downwards
4. Club shaft begins its arc to the golf ball

This all happens in a split second at the beginning of the downswing. However, if the sequence is changed, the power is lost. In fact, the golfer could struggle with all sorts of issues, such as casting and scooping, hanging back, fat and thin shots and of course.....Rushing! We have all experienced that feeling of not completing the backswing and ‘Rushing’ the swing from the top. This is us messing up that ideal sequence and starting the downswing with the club or the arms and shoulders.

The kinetic chain is synonymous with power output and isn’t restricted to golf. We see examples of this ground force energy at work in tennis, baseball, hockey and cricket, to name a few. Watching a World Series Pitcher gives us the perfect example of an effective and powerful kinetic chain.

Skill Development vs Technical Changes

Although technique is an important factor in improving a golfer’s performance, Skill Development is largely neglected in golf coaching today. Skill is something that can be tangibly improved with proper understanding of the golf impact laws and effective practice towards improved performance.

External Focus of Attention

Most golf teaching involves an internal focus. Common suggestions might include increased hip turn, a still head or improved hand path. These are all factors of the golf swing, which many golfers and teachers consider important. However, as they are focused internally, on movements of the body, golfers find changes extremely difficult to process.

Enter the world of External Focus of Attention. This means that instead of focusing on body parts, a golfer can and should focus more on the target, the ball, the clubhead - objects which are external to the body. The sciences involving Motor Skill Learning have proven that by employing an External Focus of Attention, sports men and women learn new moves more quickly, retain changes more readily and can perform better under pressure.

All of the Aussie Golf Pros coaching, drills and advice for clients and viewers, involve an External Focus of Attention and the results can be astonishing!
