End of
Back Swing Movement. (Changed
- 20/08/2010)
The back swing movement is performed by using the shoulders
to rotate a very compact upper body unit as far as possible whilst
the heel of the left foot remain firmly on the ground and the head
remains firmly held in the original address position.
Failure to hold the upper body unit as a very
compact unit to the end of the back swing movement will only result
in erratic golf shots.
Therefore at the end of the back swing movement the body position
is as follows :-
1) The shoulders have been rotated as far as it is physically
possible whilst the lower body has resisted the movement, thus forming
the whole body into a fully
twisted condition, but with the muscles of the left shoulder
still in over-all control of the upper body unit.
2) The core muscles are wound up to their maximum torsion.
3) The head remains
positioned with "pinpoint accuracy"so that the left eye
is slightly behind the ball and the eyes are fully focused on the
back edge of the golf ball.
4) The left arm
remain perfectly straight whilst the right
arm has gradually folded and the wrists has been fully cocked.
5) The forearms have
been allowed to rotate naturally .
( You do not need to consciously rotate the forearms during
the back swing movement - this happens automatically as the right
arm folds.)
6) The upper body angles have
been strictly maintained.
7) The elbows remain held as close together as is physically
possible thus keeping the upper body firmly together as a very compact
unit.
8) The thumb of the left hand is directly under the grip
of the golf club.
(The thumb is on top at the address position.)
9) Most importantly, the eyes have remained focused on the back
edge of the golf ball at all times.
