\nMaintain pressure on the insteps of both feet. The back muscles must coil like a spring.<\/p>\n

The right leg should retain the pressure of the upper body coil, much like a spring being coiled; one end must be held stationary while the other end is torqued.<\/p>\n

Push the right knee inward before starting the backswing. Allowing the right knee to move to the right forces the instep to raise up. This causes fat shots and a power loss (the left knee for the left-hand golfer).<\/p>\n

Think of the right knee as a post on the backswing. The knee maintains a great deal of resistance from the turn of the upper body, creating the power that is needed to propel the golf ball.<\/p>\n

I find that most golfers find it easier to push both knees slightly toward each other throughout the backswing. <\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget to enjoy this great game called golf.<\/p>\n
