PivotforPowerPivotforPower THE PivotForPower works because it teaches the transition weight shift move. Golf pros teach students to propel the clubhead to the ball along or from inside the target line by clearing his hips before impact. Students learn to lead their downswing with lower body, their hips turning toward the target before their shoulders and arms come around. A golfer must PLANT his front leg post by shifting his weight to his front leg. As he shifts weight and posts, his back foot heel raises. Earlier is better.

Ben Hogan said when he made this video clip that starting the downswing with lower body is The most important thing in the golf swing. Then he demonstrates the transition weight shift in this video clip. Ben Hogan wrote in Five Lessons page 90 (paraphrasing) that we can focus on only one or two key movements during the downswing.

The duffer cannot do better than to resolve never to permit his club head to cross the projected line of flight in back of the ball. and The hips must be shifted quickly toward the front along the line of play.. From SLAP Swing Like A Pro, pp. 102, The transition move is what gives a great golf swing its undeniable sense of rhythm, grace, and flow. You'll hit the ball farther than you ever thought possible, with less effort than you probably are applying now. Although the main purpose of the transition weight shift move is to produce power, it has the nice residual effect of allowing the correct swing path to occur. One of the main reasons most golfers fade or slice is because they're unable to move the lower body out of the way of the upper body and club. The transition move serves to remove this obstacle by initiating an early power body shift toward the target....
