Golf Swing Sequences Video: Dustin Johnson Smashes it out of The Range – 325 yard Carry!
Dustin Johnson drives it out of the park at The Deutsche Bank Trophy 2011. The back fence is 325 yards and his ball is flying it! – Something even Tiger Woods would struggle to do. Dustin’s club head speed has averaged 121 mph this year ranking him in 4th position on the US PGA Tour. How does he do it? His speed like many long hitters on the PGA tour comes from an ability to make a big shoulder in the back swing while restricting the rotation of his hips. His first move in the transition from backswing to downswing is to drive his hips towards the target while rotating them to the left. While doing this Dustin retains a large proportion of his shoulder turn which sets-up a good down swing plane and creates a huge amount of torque between his hips and shoulders. This spring like effect catapults his torso, arms and then clubhead into the back of the ball with huge speed. Dustin is also 6ft 4 and weighs 190lbs, his long leavers and powerful, flexible physique help to maximise the result of what is a hugely efficient and well sequenced golf swing. How can we learn from Dustin’s swing? Well, a good starting point is to try and work on sequencing the start of your downswing correctly. Try retaining your shoulder turn while driving your hips towards the target (not towards the ball) and rotating them to the left (for a right handed player). If you do it correctly you should start getting a sense of your body recoiling through the ball without much physical effort. Some players …

Golf Swing Sequences Video: Jeff Overton Swing Analysis
I love Overton’s swing. He just cracks it out there. He’s out there just flushing it and Kostis, in one of his greatest “Bizhub” abortions, watches the swing and states that “if he could just stay a little more level with his upper body he wouldn’t be a streaky player he’d just be a good, solid player”. Are you kidding? How the hell is he teaching Paul Casey? Related Blog: www.waynedefrancesco.com

Golf Swing Sequences Video: Camilo Villegas Swing Analysis
Watching Villegas swing is like watching a great archer draw back a bow. Slowly loading, then exploding. Amazing power, but a control of impact that is better than even most tour players. Definitely slower than the average tour tempo, and decidedly steep in the backswing, his transition and movement into impact are something to marvel at, and the result is his superior shotmaking ability. My guess is that eventually he points the club more left (on plane as opposed to crossed) at the top. It doesn’t look as crossed as it is because it’s so short of parallel.
