This SwingVision shot and Peter Kostis' analysis explain it pretty well. That looks like something I would do! :eek:

Saw that yesterday....funny thing is that I thought my lower legs were very stable until my instructor showed me on video how they looked like they were going everywhere.

Hamstrings For Improved Golf Posture
Your hamstrings serve several different roles in your golf swing. They are the most important muscles to maintaining your golf posture. If you have ever heard your golf pro tell you, ?you are coming out of your swing or posture?, I can tell you, your hamstrings are most likely very restricted and weak.
Get in your golf posture right now, and reach back behind the back of your upper leg. Do you feel the tightness? This tells you that when your hip joint is in flexion, the hamstrings stretch. If your hamstrings are tight, you will have a very difficult time staying in this uncomfortable position (golf posture).
If your hamstrings are weak, they will send a message to your brain during your golf swing that they can?t hold this position and need to get out of it. This is one of the most common occurrences in amateur golfers.
