It’s interesting that most instructors in golf don’t discuss Tilt or side bend? You hear terms like rotate and turn. Bravo on this explanation Thank you!

[zahimiibrahim]

Thank you, very useful.
I videoed myself and saw my shoulders are too flat and I make up for it by pulling my arms up. I thought I was doing it the right way but this is much simpler.

[fastbow]

Well that was refreshing, solid now thank you!

The tilt of the shoulders is essential for any golfer - how much tilt depends on the individual - tilting back and down ( in the downswing) without enough lateral movement through the lower body ( to the left side ) will cause the amateur golfer big big problems - All consistent ball strikers have way more lateral movements than you realize - watch them and yes you will see the tilting but watch how much they move forwards even before the club has reached the top of their backswing

Hi Ali. Great video. I’m a feel person. So is the feel on the way back, your left shoulder almost pointing at the golf ball (low to the ground) and then at impact your right shoulder pointing at the ball (low to the ground)? I hope that makes sense. Thanks so much. Peter

Got to say I struggle to conceptualize the downswing with side bend, perhaps a rear view etc would help more 🤟

[padysrini]

Skip stone with left hand (backswing). Then with right hand (downswing)

[jamespark]

Good video as I get very flat on my backswing. Presumably while you do left shoulder down you don’t drop your head?

[russellord]

Will give it a try. What irons are you using. Thanks

Is the true fault, not the turning of the shoulders, but allowing the arms to follow the turn, the arms should raise independantly of the turn ? If the arms turn flat with the shoulders, then you have to come over top to get to the ball, if the arms also lift as the shoulders turn, then there is plenty of room for them coming back down, John Jacobs described this perfectly imho.

Sir, may I correct u? In downswing, your hips go forward not shoulder first and upper body stays back to have side way tilt .

Congratulations on you guys playing old St-Andrews.

playing on and off for 40 years - i maybe have solid contact on shots 20% of the time - i just turned 69 years old - and maybe i hit my driver 175 yds on average and cant hit a 5 iron more than 130 yards - i seem to be getting worse as i age - ive tried literally 15 different ways to swing from many on youtube - nothing really works for more than 1 or 2 times - im so tired of guys telling me that start off taking half swings - everyone says that - everyone says give their method a chance - for me if im not improving at all after 2 weeks im out of that system

“That left shoulder is much higher than the right”
Strike that, reverse it.

Who in the world looks that flat? Come on ...
