In this video, Austin Graham moves from his wedge to his 7 iron and returns to the ROTEXMotion Floor Models. Austin applies what he learned with the wedge, makes practice swings, and then hits some balls. His swing is looking great.

Mike asks Austin if using the longer club feels more magnified going through the swing motion. Austin replies that it does. Mike stands behind Austin, places his left hand on his left hip, and notices there isn’t much lateral movement, which is good. Now Austin should take the feeling of the swing motion with the 7 iron on the discs and repeat it on the floor.

Austin and Mike discuss how their body feels when they swing with the slight lateral movement. Mike feels force go from his right foot to his left foot and doesn’t feel his pelvis move. Mike makes the analogy of a baseball swing which is the same.

This is Austin’s aha moment, where he realizes there is only a slight lateral movement with his body, not the sliding he has been doing. Mike says your hips should only move a couple of inches before moving into your left side. Your left hip then stabilizes and pushes back as you swing through.

Mike reiterates that when Austin swings with his wedges, he is swinging mainly off his left foot. He still must apply a slight lateral movement.

Mike and Austin finish the video by discussing that there really isn’t any twisting of the hips, a concept many golfers are confused about. Mike says it is the femurs that rotate in the hip sockets.
