Right Shoulder.- Master - (Changed - 29/09/2008)


It is absolutely vital that the upper body angles are strictly maintained so that the right shoulder rotates under the chin in complete co-ordination with the interact of the arms.

This is one of the most important basic principles of the golf swing, not only to increase the accuracy of the shot but also injecting extra power into the golf shot.

 

When this action is combined with the action of using the muscles of the left shoulder to pull the passive arms into and through the contact area, it ensures that the club face remains square to the target line for that extra distance as it moves through the contact area.


Please note.

Most amateur golfers do not maintain the upper body angle until the completion of the golf swing, they only maintain the upper body angle until the club head makes contact with the ball, simply because they assume that once the ball has been struck it is not that important.

Therefore as soon as the ball is stuck they begin to straighten the body thus causing the right shoulder to move laterally towards the target area -- instead of continuing to rotate the compact upper body unit around the central core of the body whilst the upper body angles are maintained, thus rotating under the chin as the ball is struck.

However I can assure you that you must maintain the upper body angles to the completion of the golf swing movement so that the right shoulder can correctly be forced to rotate under the chin whilst the arms interact.
