Weight Distribution

photo credit: mandj98    Proper weight distribution is one of the key elements in a powerful golf swing.  It is the shift in weight, created by body movement, that produces good timing and plenty of club-head speed.

In the address position the weight should be distributed evenly, on the insides of both feet (this does not apply to short approach shots).  During the back-swing (right handed players) the weight shifts to inside of the right foot (not the outside of the foot), at impact the weight is as it was at address and on the follow-through the weight should shift to the outside of the lead foot and inside of the right foot.

Tip:  In the address position, try to keep your knees slightly inward to keep your weight on the inside.
