A first class div 1 college golfer, is taking lessons from
an instructor in Atlanta, Not Ted Forte. His instructor
will not work on the backswing until issues are worked out
on the pivot. His instuctor would like level hips on the
backswing and a straighting left leg into impact. Does the
Hula Hula favor slanted hip or level hips. I alwalys felt
that slanted hips was the program. I asked a friend who is
and instuctor at Ledbetter, and she said, always level hips.
I don't buy that. What are your thoughts.

How do you define "Hip"? How do you define "level" in this context? How does working on the hip motion or any pivot related motion in the backswing qualify as not working on the "backswing"? Why does the instructor want "level" hips on the backswing and a straightening left leg towards impact? What would be the causes of these movements or are we just changing them directly without understanding the nature, cause, purpose of those motions?
