Hip rotation

[Daryl]

Thanks all for helping me think this out.

The best swings show a very level hip turn.

A level Hip Turn does not cause the knees to bend. Are their knees Bending? Standing Straight Up and Turning your Shoulders causes a Flat Shoulder Turn which Causes a Flat Hip Turn. A Golfer that can make a Full Swing with Hips remaining Level-ish is extremely flexible.

I got out a couple of my shop adjustable roller stands. One stand just under my butt. As i go to top my right cheek kind of sits on the roller, I slide along roller only 2-3 inches then as i rotate left I feel my left cheek sit on the roller and if I am swinging my butt kind of rolls around end of roller and If I am hitting it kind of stays on roller.
This is far from automatic yet and the feel is very different but I have looked and looked in a mirror and I think I am on the right track.

I use a second roller in front of right thigh an I try not to bump it .

How does my analysis and remedy sound?

At the least, your roller drill may help you to learn to maintain your posture. That's a good thing.
