The H.I.P.S. Myth: Spin To Win, Think Again
Inside LeverGolf – Episode 8
The Hips Myth: Spin to Win? Think Again.
In this episode of Inside LeverGolf, Jim Ferreri takes on one of the most aggressively taught ideas in modern golf — “clear the hips” and “spin to win.”
Golfers are told that more hip speed equals more power. So they spin harder. They fire faster. They try to create speed from the ground up.
And then the timing collapses.
Because when the hips outrun structure, the club gets stranded — and the hands are forced to rescue the swing.
In this episode, we break down:
• Why aggressive hip spinning often destroys sequence
• How “clear the hips” became a misunderstood instruction
• The difference between athletic movement and forced rotation
• Why over-rotation leads to blocks, flips, and weak contact
• How LeverGolf organizes movement without spinning out
If you’ve ever felt like you’re firing everything and still losing control… this episode explains why.
Power isn’t about spinning harder.
It’s about moving in order.
