If you COULD you would.
Below are a series of pictures that show LOTS of things relative to hitting a golf ball far and straight.
I could write a 10,000 paper on it, but for now, I just talk about the infamous
"HEAD BOB."
MANZELLA MATRIX PRINCIPLE:
"If there are a multitude of people doing something, over a long period of time, that are competing at a VERY high level at their activity, then, that something is probably VERY CORRECT."
Golfers, Baseball hitters, Pitchers and Throwers, Football Quarterbacks, Hockey Players, Boxers...etc, ALL tilt their NECKS (and therefore their heads) on an AXIS as to provide SHOULDER SUPPORT AND SPEED in the process of propelling whatever it is they are propelling!!!!
The girl golfers are just getting their necks in place, for the WHACKING.
That's it.
Once upon a time, I used to say that they should have their necks in the right place at address.
Now I know better.
There AIN'T any way to get enough waist bend and neck slant at address to eliminate the down head movement.
THE BALL HAS NO IDEA WHAT THE HEAD IS DOING!!!!!!!!!
If you could arch you back and your neck, to put your shoulder "into it" like these girls....you would.
I say what they are doing is PERFECT EXECUTION.
My head and spine moves up on the backswing because of flexibility issues.
So what?
I hit it just fine. Because:
1. I make the club work like a club.
2. I make my body help.
I really am starting to come to the thought that the REASON for all the funny positions PROMOTED in golf is because the teacher PROMOTING it, have VERY LITTLE athletic ability.
Or sense.
