What defines a "limited pivot" or "undynamic pivot"

It will be there within the hour.

I have a suggestion for a non-dynamic pivot. One where the weight never moves to the back foot.

How would you define it, Andy?

Anyone can use a forward lean, pitch shot pivot and call it efficient. Reminds me of "stories" of using a 2 inch punch and breaking a board in martial arts.

I think that using all the motion you can while remaining in efficient geometry makes a move dynamic. Using a swing that really is just a knockdown is not polished. I think we all dream of a complete golf swing, power, accuracy and consistency. I would be much more consistent and maybe even more accurate using my punch shot golf swing, but I strive for optimum, even if it's unrealistic.

Every golf swing I teach has weight going to the back foot.

For starters a golfer that does not utilize ground forces efficiently on the downswing.

When you say motion could you elaborate on what is in motion? Hips? Legs? Feet? Head?
Defiantly agree that you can have alot of motion and good geometry you can play great golf.

Best to use examples I think. Couples, Daly, Snead, Hogan, Mickelson, Nicklaus, Watson, Singh are full motion max participation moves in my opinion. On the other hand, Maggert, Funk, Allen Doyle all have great moves, but are limited and prevent them accessing full power- again in my opinion.

Just some examples that come to mind

Not going to lie what you showed in your videos doesnt prove your point AT ALL. Everyone of the players you showed bomb it past you and me and you have the crazy assumption to say that they arnt dynamic.

I didn't realize that steering the ball was dynamic. Are you amending your question to make a new point? What about the videos pertaining to pivot limitation, or lack thereof...

Not going to lie, you're mind seems pretty made up. Are you in the army theater of the "revolutionary" brigade?

I think what lia is saying is that you started this thread with your mind already made up and noones answers would ever give you even a little reason to pause, so why ask the question?
