This video is unique in that it provides 4 different views of the Rotary Hitter Golf Swing<\/strong> in action \u2014 face on, down the line, from the rear and up the line. It also goes in depth explaining the differences between the Rotary Hitter<\/strong> and Rotary Swinger<\/strong> in the ongoing “Swinger vs Hitter”<\/strong> discussion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It discusses how and why the takeaway<\/strong> is not as inside and shut as it is in the Rotary Swing and how this aids in releasing the golf club through impact<\/strong> for speed for the Hitter. It also discusses the top of the swing position and the dynamics at the top of the swing. Chuck Quinton’s swing is used as he commentates about the transition he has been making to a Rotary Hitter<\/strong> (which was later absorbed into the wildly successful Rotary Swing Tour methodology \u2014 learn more<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The question for many, apart from the technical differences of the swing, what are the philosophical differences in the swing? Or, more importantly, which one is right for me \u2014 hitter or swinger<\/strong>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a nutshell, you should go off two things. First, what do you already do naturally in your golf swing<\/strong>? Do you tend to get your arms out in front of your body and have your shoulders more shut than open at impact?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is a significant determinant factor as the impact dynamics<\/strong> are more difficult to change for most golfers. The second thing is what do you like to feel in your golf swing? Do you like to feel more of a hit with the body or do you like the feel of releasing the club with the hands through impact? Tools like the AI swing analyzer<\/a> can help you identify which swing style matches your natural movement patterns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
