Malaska Golf // Shift Your Weight is a Bad Idea - Golf Swing Basics
I get this question when I talk to people about the shift in forces in your golf swing. Players think that if they're trying to shift their weight from right to left, they're going to be able to generate more speed. This is not the case. You're not shifting your weight in your golf swing. There is no shift in body mass. You are shifting force from your right to your left, and you are pushing away from the force of the golf club as you move through impact.
Give your mind a better task and you will see better results.

I am 74 and only started playing again after I retired at age 71 having only played about a dozen times in 25 years. My Handicap in 2017 was 36, that was embarrassing. I started watching Mike's KZread videos in early 2019 and at that time my Handicap was down to 26. I am now down to 19 and i am enjoying the game again and looking forward to getting down to 15 this year with Mike's help. Thanks Mike
You know I see 25 thumbs down total ignorance,, that stated I just got back from the driving range in New York long island ,,, I've watched numerous videos on Mike's teachings and I have to tell ya I had zero zero tention in my upper half shoulders arms hands like he said to do and I've never ever hit the ball so pure it was absolutely incredible,, I said to myself no way that just happened no way ,,, but went at it again and same result I can't believe it I can hit the ball with that feeling absolutely loveing it !!!! Ty Soo much Mr. M / Mike outstanding job teaching and figuring this out !!!
I’ve watched many golf videos for a few years now and you are the best instructor hands down! Your simple explanations always give me the aha moment. Handicap definitely will drop once courses open up again. Thank you Mike! Stay safe!
These simple tips Mike has talked about has helped me get back to playing golf the proper way.
This Gentleman is the master of all masters with his golf knowledge; over the past couple years I have saved his videos and I
You are by far one of the top best instructors I have heard thank you for not lying and giving us solid information
This is the best video and explanation of some bad habits for most amateur golfers. Thank you Malaska! ⛳🏌️♂️💫
Excellent, that's the best explanation I've ever heard about this. My best shots are when I feel that "mass" at the end of my club from start to finish "pulling opposite of me. That's the "force vector" and when you hit the ball, you feel nothing. When you fight it, things go bad, very bad. You can only have one coach instructing you, you're it. Thanks!!!!
Be safe Mike. Keep teaching and making us better golfers, thank you!
As a beginner this is great. My body did this naturally and I thought it was wrong.. your description of hip actions moving back, not sideways, cleared this up. Look forward to the head vid. Your explanations are clear, concise and capture my attention. Thanks.
Mike, where in the world have you been. The MOST gratifying thing about your "teachings" is your explanations of the concepts that you've been taught, tried to use, and which, in the end, hurt your golf game.
Thank you for this video Mike. What a great explanation to the horrific teachings of many as to how you need to transfer weight. Moving forces is so much different.
This was an aha moment for me. And I finally really 'get' want you're saying when you say 'push away'.
What a great insight that is from the GOAT. This explains the differences between reverse pivot, weight shift and pressure shift brilliantly Thanks so much.
Looking forward to the video with the 7 to 8 most destructive messages of the industry👍 As Jack said ... I love this channel!
Mike, your stuff is saving me. I only wish I saw the light 30 years ago. Your “hips and the pivot points” explanation cured me after years of early extension. And this makes so much sense. It’s a shame that well-meaning teachers blindly lead their students down the road of frustration. Thanks!
Every time I try something from your videos it just works.... thank you for sharing your knowledge on the internet!!
Hi hi hi....fantastic. Very well explain. Thank you for taking this game to heart.
Great explanation thanks!! Mike.
This is good. I’ve struggled with this.
