My shift at top- 65-70% FRONT - before start down. my fel is that little weight moved with the shift. I can not measure further but I do wind up on front foot UNLESS I block myself out. I am VERY surprised as I have always felt that most (90%++)weight went back. This is strange teretory for me. The Bear I would guess that the bathroom scales respond to slow to show accurate figures for a good motion. The weight shift is not simply a shift of static balance point. You can apply a lot of pressure through back foot first, then front foot - without actually moving much around. Because you're using the pressure to feed the golf club with swing speed. Your readings may be discriminating agains the most hard-working leg at any time. __________________ Best regards, Bernt BerntR View Public Profile Send a private message to BerntR Find all posts by BerntR
