Forward press

[flapro]

What do you all think of using a forward press? It seems to work for me.

are we talking about aiming point, and hands getting to aiming point first, or forward address hands?

FORWARD PRESS

The forward movement of the hands and(or) body by the golfer from his previously static address position, to: rehearse impact, start the swing more smoothly, as a trigger, etc.​

Do I like it?

Well...I used to teach it to almost everyone, now that I know better, I use it—just like 100's of other things in my toolbox—when I, and my student, need it.​

Do I like the idea of it?

Sure.

But if it doesn't work for you.....don't do it!​

Cheers

It works for me as well

What it does for me is kick start the pivot and get things moving in unison. I guess I have the feeling of weight transfer onto a flexed but solid right leg. There is a fault of swaying with it but if one is careful, it works well.
I am not a flat belly anymore so I need something to get body parts moving together.
Thanks much for your reply
