How should my weight be on a golf swing? During a golf swing, start with your weight evenly distributed. As you swing back, let your weight shift to the inside of your back foot. For right-handed golfers, this means the right foot. During the downswing, smoothly transfer your weight to the front foot. Completing the swing, your weight should be predominantly on your leading foot, helping to generate power and balance.
