"The majority of the weight should be on the heel, and it is better to
turn on one's heel than to roll excessively. Address Position loading of the
Feet is even distribution between both Feet but with enough on the heels to
allow the toes to be lifted up momentarily without altering the distribution
between the toe and heel."
I have been watching Alignment Golf (BTW, if you haven't bought it then do so NOW!). I have only watched the first disc and the start of the second, saw the foot action drills and that was enough for me, a month or two of work right there! Until I get the footwork right I am not working on anything else except for FLW/BRW which is constant training for me.
My foot action has always let me down and I have always felt it is a cause of some of the inconsistencies in my swing. So off I went to the practice net with a 10c piece (we don't have pennies over here!), a rubber tee and about 100 balls. An hour later I am here!
A couple of questions. My right foot hasa tendency to go straight out instead of rolling in, however in being conscious of the ball inside the instep I sometimes kicked my heel towards the middle of the stance to hit the ball, rather than rolling in....not sure what help I want there but just wondering if that is an ok point to go through on the journey to the correct roll...i.e. is it the lesser of two evils.
My left foot has always had a tendency to spin out, which I think has to do with the way the right foot fires too. Anyhow, even when I stopped the spin out my feet felt very restriced (possibly a good thing) and I tended to want to roll to the outside of the left foot with the 10c peice falling off the left side of my foot as I swung. Is this restricted feeling and some extra roll a good thing, or is spinning out a little the better option. Or do I need to stop both.
I know there are options here but if I am going to focus on this I want to do it right. I am aiming for a 10-17-C action.
Any help, advice, general thoughts greatly appreciated.
I should mention a couple of shots where the foot rolled in properly and the 10c didn't move felt super solid into the net, can't wait to see them at the range!
