Value of the 30 Degree Flare

DJ talked about it in his video at the Bob Hope Classic: flaring the feet 30 degrees and bending his knees more.

Remember, we want outward pressure on the knees. Golfers used to be taught to bend the back knee inward, but that would defeat having our knees stay level.

Also, we couldn't have a loaded, heavy right side if the back knee was bent forward. Another problem would be your inability to sit or sink into that back leg during the backswing. If you tried, you'd have a good chance of falling over. Take a look and see just how critical flared feet are in the Surge Swing.

The Surge!
