Yes, the entire Modern Golf Swing world would follow him, it unfortunately seems.
I didn’t even go looking for this – I was watching all of this ridiculous modern swing instruction that tells everyone that it’s not proper mechanics to shift one’s hips on the down swing, and it eventually fell from the sky as these things do.
Golfer are now being taught that you can’t turn in a golf swing, that you have to harpoon because turning will somehow mess up what you’re doing.
Of course, if you’re swinging or being taught to swing in the Modern Golf Swing style of swinging over the leading foot, then turning is the least of your problems.
It’s becoming obvious to me that there has been a shift in the recent past from a right-biased golf swing setup, drifting ever more to the left (in a right-handed swing) to the leading side stack and tilt pivot method.
Everywhere I go, I start looking at the instruction and the instructor is invariably trying to solve the one problem (unsolvable) you have with this swing method – it is impossible to strike the ball without a severely descending strike angle (only good for wedges).
