"Key Movement"
It is important to understand that whilst the hip movement has forced the whole twisted body unit to rotate about its axis, the shoulders have automatically returned to this position, but importantly, the elbows have been held as close together as is possible, thus maintaining the shoulder/arms-unit as a very compact one piece unit.

At the precise moment the club head makes contact with the ball, the shoulders must be in the original address position.

From this position the passive arms quickly interact whilst the shoulders slowly continue to rotate, thus performing the Key Movement and also swinging the club head to the bottom of the swing arc.

The passive arms interact whilst the shoulders rotate very slowly for the following reasons:-

1) To ensure that the club head remains on the straight to the target line for that extra distance through the contact area.

2) To ensure that the loft of the club face remains constant as the club head moves through the contact area.

The Shoulders.

The shoulders must be Parallel to the Target Line at the precise moment the club head makes contact with the ball.

As you move the mouse over the picture, a second image shows the result of the passive arms interacting whilst the shoulders continue to rotate at a very slow rate.
