The most athletic golfer in the world (Tiger Woods) also maintains equal weight distribution between the right and left sides. Once again, this is contrary to what MOST coaches teach today – emphasizing 60-40 or 70-30 weight distribution – especially for the driver.

That much is easy to understand. What most people miss is the importance of weight distribution in executing this turn. Without an equal LEFT and RIGHT weight distribution, the t...
