The golf swing as performed by Luke Donald illustrates in slow motion, the basic method of playing top quality golf.
At the end of the back swing movement the whole body has been twisted to its maximum whilst the left heel has remained firmly on the ground.
You will notice that the hips begin to rotate towards the target area thus initiating the down swing movement and almost immediately the right elbow is forced into his waistline with the left arm remaining close to the right shoulder.
I say almost immediately, because there must be a slight gap as the hips begin to rotate, before the the right elbow is forced into his waistline.
The action of pulling the right elbow into the waistline is the beginning of the Magic Move
Therefore as Magic Move is performed, the hip movement forces the body to adopt the impact position.
However once the right elbow is pulled into the waistline it remains in this position whilst the right shoulder forces the upper body to rotate into the down swing.
You will note that the shape of the upper body does not change until the club head strikes the ball.
