You will hear mention on television and probably in YouTube videos, as well as reading online about it, this absolutely fraudulent claim about how golfers create “vertical lift” by jumping into the air with or snapping their leading leg and foot through impact.
It is and has always been a fraud upon the unsuspecting golfer, because the real reasons golfers are jumping off of and snatching their leading leg away through impact are either to prevent injury from the twisting force or because they are anchoring their trailing foot (which can contribute to the twisting force) and something has to give with the turning of the hips.
