Back Strain

Is there any other way to make the

A BACK FRIENDLY technique is something that many of us would probably be interested in!!!

Any golf technique is going to put some stress on the back... because golf is a unilateral activity, and because golf involves twisting, while being bent over.

Now... the "little bump," as I understand it, does not have to be a huge, exaggerated thing. You only need enough slide to allow the right shoulder, and right arm to do what they need to do.

Question for the TGMers. About how many inches should the left hip move laterally, for a standard straight shot?

What usually happens if the hip slides too much? What usually happens if the hip does not slide enough?

Doe anyone have a nice PIVOT DRILL to share?
