Here is a video of Adam Scott and Tiger side by side. In the facing portion notice how the right leg stays motionless. No lateral movement at all. There is a turn of the hips but no sliding. From this position it gets easier to initiate the downswing with the lower body.
John is an incredible golf instructor! I had such a great lesson with him–he’s not only knowledgeable but also super encouraging and easy to work with. He broke things down in a way that made sense, and I saw immediate improvements in my swing and confidence.
He used video feedback, provided clear reference materials, and even sent detailed notes after the lesson. I left feeling excited and motivated to keep improving. If you’re looking for a golf coach who’s professional, thorough, and genuinely enjoyable to learn from, John is your guy!
Mike Austin advocates a lateral shift of the hips going back and through on all the youtube videos I watched of him.
