Description

With back injuries in golf rising, there is clearly a need to investigate and resolve the problem via the biomechanics of the swing, rather than researching the technology of the clubs. Having worked with scientists and doctors with a historical interest in innovation within sporting techniques, at Northern Michigan University, Michigan State University USA, and Sports Surgery Clinic (Dublin), we have discovered that compared to the modern swing our revolutionary Weedon’s Way swing creates significant less torque between the thorax and pelvis without loss of performance. In the modern swing, during the downswing the thorax accelerates whilst the pelvis decelerates.

As a consequence the thorax and pelvis act in opposite directions; massive torque is inflicted on the lumbosacral spine mainly at L5/S1. In the Weedon’s Way swing the thorax and pelvis travel at similar speeds reducing the aforementioned torque. In essence we remove the axis tilt i.e. body's side bend on the downswing. In the course of my project I have collated and reviewed 17 years of scientific research papers relating to low back pain in golf.

The solution common to all papers is to play/practice less whilst performing core strengthening exercises.

There has never been an evidence-based alternative until now. ‘Swing Weedon’s Way the Pain Free Way’.
