If you need power you need body rotation. Especially in the square to square swing. You can unlock a ton of power by flaring your lead foot as it will allow you to make a much bigger backswing and have more speed through impact.

It’s a lot more body rotation than it is hands and arms and flipping. So, left foot flare. It’s not an absolute, but it does. For me, it’s been a reaction to an intention. And if we talk about the square to square swing and what I intend in the square to square swing, it’s a lot more body rotation than it is hands and arms and flipping. So, if you want to rotate your body better, it makes a lot of sense to free up your knee and your ankle and your hip to free up your body to rotate easier. And if I think about having my foot more perpendicular to the target line, that’s going to restrict my ability to turn and that’s going to slow my body rotation down. versus if I have my left toe flared, that’s going to help me rotate or allow me to rotate
