Here’s a post to start a new category for Golf Lesson. There’s been a bunch of talk on Twitter and other online venues about Stack and Tilt and what should or shouldn’t happen to the spine in the backswing. Here’s a video from James Ridyard (aka. @golfswingrebel) that I think should be mandatory viewing to all teachers and future teachers. It seems so simple when you watch it and yet I have misrepresented the backswing pivot in the past.
Depending on the type of backswing pivot you are trying to make, some proportion of the three elements will be in there. FYI – Some teachers call sidebend, a tilt.
