Backswing:

Head Positioning and Weight Shift

Description: In this video, Matt talks about how the head moves in relation to the weight shift on the backswing.

Focus Points:

  • Your head position should not stay centered and still during the backswing like you are taught to do when hitting an iron.
  • Your head should move back laterally in unison with your weight shift but only until you have properly loaded your weight inside the heel of your back foot.
  • If you notice you are creating a reverse spine angle on your backswing, chances are you have kept your head still instead of moving it laterally.
