sai-jin Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Some people say it's not important, some say it's not just important, it's necessary unless you want to pull or fade balls all day long. What I found is that when I'm not lazy and I do have a 90* shoulder back turn, I can drop my club to the slot and hit almost any shots I want. And when I'm only turning a little less and my left shoulder points to around 10 or 11 oclock, I become a little steep. So what do you guys think?

RoverRick Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 SaiJin You have the cause and the effect backwards. The amount you turn your shoulders has to do more with the power that you can generate. While getting steep (off plane) can limit your shoulder turn, it is the cause of the problem (off plane) and the effect is the limited shoulder turn (less power) and pull or a push. A draw and a fade describes ball flight. Push and pull describes the swing or swing flaws. IF you stay on plane then limiting shoulder turn is a very effective way to control distance.

sai-jin Posted August 12, 2013 Author Share Posted August 12, 2013 Roverrick: I'll copy paste that into my notes. Rich: I"ll try your method tomorrow. Currently what I think of is left shoulder to right foot (as long as club head doesn't get inside) Yea, I was just wondering what you guys think on this, since I got different feedback from different people I play with. For me personally I notice that for my driver and long clubs I have to have that 90* turn to strike well and long. WHile mid to low clubs I don't seem to have to turn much. Just trying to learn more about my swings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kor.A.Door Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 JB Holmes comes to mind for me, he only turns about 3/4 turn and hits the ball a mile. Not to mention some of us cant turn that far. Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
