Use a low rope pulley to feel pressure-driven rotation

Hook a rope around a low fixed point and act like a pulley, pulling back in the backswing and through in the through-swing. The host says golfers feel very rotational, but they never really realize how the pressure is moving in their feet, and there is not much side-to-side movement.
