If your shoulder turn is rotated as opposed to flat, it may not work as well. The right shoulder needs to get on plane in the downswing. It moves down, forward and out. Imagine a clubface on your right shoulder and drive it into the ball. However, that could lead to disaster if your right shoulder is not positioned properly in the backswing. Tomasello in the pivot video teaches a flat shoulder turn. Moving the right shoulder down works well with that turn. The golfing machine works when all components work with one another, there are a myriad of options. I have found by painful personal experience that taking one component, the right shoulder driving down to start the swing for instance, may work one day and not the next because some other component enters into the fray. Another in a long line of great posts. We Minnesotans need to get together soon, if spring ever starts, and watch each other swat some balls. I'm cranking her up again after 5 years away from playing! Right-Left-Right-Left... Kevin __________________ I could be wrong. I have been before, and will be again. ALIGNMENT G.O.L.F.
