The Right Shoulder Move YOU NEED In Your Downswing! (Consistent Strike)

How do you move the right shoulder in the downswing? Let's explore!

Henry and I look at this key move and respond to a TikTok follower's question of whether it feels like you are hitting the golf ball with your right shoulder. For a consistent strike and low point, this can be a great feel! Hope you enjoy.

Early extension has been a killer for my consistency for years. These videos have helped me visualize what needs to be done. Cheers!

[rafaelherrera]

I use that drill and I feel like I compress my chest and my right shoulder through and against the ground very powerful move. it works.

[paulainsworth]

As soon as i started doing this drill my strikes were solid and my divots nice and square, thanks guys

I am a 5hcp looking to make that next leap.
Went looking for this video, ‘right shoulder down’ after getting real improvement from the one handed (trail hand)drill.
Not only has it stopped the big lose right, which used to be a score killer, but has improved the quality of my strike.
Love to see you guys do a video on that drill.

in my studies lately of the golf swing to get rid of too horizontal of shoulders at top.this is a very good visual on the shoulders turning on plane with bonus of impact position!

I use my right shoulder in downswing but it's strictly a lateral move toward the target. The down and out take care of themselves. Otherwise my right side bend occurs too early and I'm stuck. It's where we are on the "spectrum" as you said.

[BinoRucker]

extremely helpful way to tie in the "squeeze" video to this concept

[dseveno]

This really works. I took this to the range and it completely cured my pull. The only hard part is adjusting low point control. I take bigger divots with this method, but that can be adjusted for I'm guessing. If you're a consistent puller of the ball, give this a try.

Man a toe shank right off Henrys forehead when you did that pivot drill would have made my day!!! Great video guys I'm stealing this feel and I'm just messing with you King Henry!!! lol

[golfnut]

How close can or should the shoulder get to the ground during the forward swing to impact? Measured in inches if you know the distance.

[zeroherogolf]

Even more precise, is the feeling of hitting the ball with the trail-side (right-side) upper rib cage, just below the arm pit. This is much better as it puts the focus on torso rotation NOT the shoulder, which has a lot of movement because it's attached to a nearby socket. All the rest stays the same; Bent at the waist, trail-side lateral bend, trail-side arm bent at the elbow, etc ...

[thurlestonetennis]

It is a great drill/feel, as it helps me keep the same relationship of the arms to the torso for longer, before the arms swing away. Like many club golfers I tend to throw the club head at the ball from P6, which leads to the left shoulder lifting early, to provide space for the hands and club, with the all too common raising of the handle prior to contact. Also helps get more right side bend; so will work it into my pre-shot routine, and hopefully look more like Milo. Many thanks for video.

That lead hip has to clear for that trail shoulder to do what you want.
IMO, if one can get the lead hip to travel properly, the shoulder tends to take care of itself.
Good stuff as always...thanks

Starting the down swing by dropping the right shoulder does many good things for your swing. The right shoulder is high at the top of the back swing. Dropping your right shoulder puts you into the correct hitting position. People who swing over the top bring the right shoulder around by spinning their hips around. Put a cardboard box just out of reach of your club at set up. To miss the box, you will feel like you have to drop your right shoulder to miss the box.

[jakeallen]

This is an awesome feel for my short irons but long irons not so much usually a very thin strike. Could the thin strike be from holding my angles for to long? Mainly trail wrist

[jammuu]

Is most of your weight and pressure on the lead foot as the right shoulder comes through? I have a hard time knowing where to be with my weight as I rotate through. I’m a big time early extender.

[Blue_Dun]

I've been working on this feel, as well as shaft lean and keeping the clubhead outside my hands during the early half of the back swing. This latter mechanic has screwed me up and my progress with shaft lean has regressed. The ball is going all over the place with little center face contact. HELP!

[jamesstevens]

Right shoulder down is a fantastic drill that gets amazing compression ❤

[joeguy]

This feel is so conflicting for me. I have to feel like right shoulder stays back and right arm starts straightening before rotation or I hit slices. Pros shoulders are square at impact but everything is about getting open. Any input would be wonderful. Thanks.

[westwind]

Is this the same thing or same motion for the driver???
