Hip loads the foot. Foot fires the swing

GRF Golf explains the dynamic relationship between hip rotation and ground reaction forces in the golf swing. The instructor demonstrates how to load the hip through internal rotation and immediately fire from the foot to harness the body's natural 'coiled spring' effect for maximum power.

• Avoid practicing static positions; the golf swing transition should be a fluid 'in and out' movement.
• Internally rotating the hip loads the foot into a natural pronation, creating tension like a coiled spring.
• Power is generated by firing the hip from the foot using ground reaction forces.
• The opening of the hips should be a reaction to the load, not a conscious, manual movement.
• Loading and firing must happen quickly and dynamically to utilize the muscles' elastic properties.
