Learning the proper weight distribution during the golf swing is critical to power and consistency. There is a fine line between doing this correctly and doing it totally wrong. Weight shift can help your body leverage the torque you build up from making a full backswing and a complete finish on your left leg. This weight distribution is very important during your entire golf swing. You must get it right to maximize your driving distance and accuracy. Golfers should take the time to learn this early on in their playing career.
