Golf with Phil Many golfers end up shifting most of their body weight onto the left foot as the club is swung back, and reverse their weight onto the right foot as an attempt is made to make a forward swing. This action is called a “reverse pivot” and is very detrimental to a good golf swing. Among many problems that are caused by this action are no follow through, an outsidc-to-in swing path, tailing backwards, hitting behind the ball and no lower body turn. The following two drills arc recommended to cure a reverse pivot. 1. Hit balls on an upslope. (This drill helps you transfer your weight onto your right foot on the back swing.) Find an upslope. Hit balls, main taining a smooth rhythm at all times. Note that, on the backswing, gravity tends to make you shift the majority of your weight onto your right foot. This is what the weight shift should feel like when you are playing off level lies. 2. Walk through the shot to cure a reverse pivot. (This makes it impos sible to finish with your weight on your right side.) Tee a ball to increase your chances of making solid contact. Using an iron, assume your normal address position and make a conventional backswing. Just after impact on the downswing, step down the fairway with your right foot. A number of fine professionals, including Chi Chi Rodriguez and Gary Player, make the move as part of their nor mal swing. It not only prevents a reverse pivot but helps you obtain a full release with your body as well as with your arms and hands. If you’ve felt yourself falling back as you swing forward, try these drills to get yourself shifting and turning toward the target.
