You're Focused on Impact Force... But Missing the Starting Force That Comes First! Most golfers are so focused on generating force at impact they never think about the starting force... and that has to happen first. It's not just the hips. The legs straightening slightly before the club moves is how you take advantage of ground forces before the swing even begins. A couple of waggles, then that little leg move right before takeaway... and the ground is already loaded. It's easy to overdo when you're first learning it, but once it's dialed in, it's the piece that makes everything feel more athletic and connected.
