All arms my friend. Your hips should rotate to create start of the swing. Not get drug around after your arms have swung. ▶ this video This is Rory. Stop the video in downswing, club parallel to ground, just before impact. Look at his belt buckle. It is already open to target in before impact. Look at his lead shoulder in comparison. It is not already pulled up and through swing at impact, he’s square, his chest is …

Things I notice are too much sway off the ball in the backswing, in my opinion it’s not that your backswing is too deep, it’s that it’s too narrow. When you start the swing, try and keep both arms as straight as you can until the club is parallel.

You have to …

You need to land left before P4. The way your feet spin out and then you fall off tells me you're nowhere close to early enough getting lead side. ▶ this video Watch Rory's ass cheeks start going toward target well before the backswing finishes.

Who’s the best player you can name who laterally moves towards the target on the downswing? ▶ this video Watch how well Rory stays behind the ball and turns.
