Joe Laurentino, PGA "The Role of the Right Shoulder in the Golf Swing"

[cantputt1952]

In Joe's book his explanation of transition is unlike anything that I have read before. It is so easy to understand and execute and completely eliminates the "slide" in your swing. I cant remember any videos addressing what he puts forth. It has really made a difference

Joe..I wish more PGA Teachers would talk about proper setup w/ the correct use of the right shoulder on the backswing..If executed properly..the downswing is simply a release w/out the tension (or hit impulse)..which tends to bring about the over the top move to begin with...

@cantputt1952 Thanks - let me know if you have any questions.

great point , thank you. i knew i was coming over the top, but it wasn' t hands.

right shoulder was cutting across, not down and under.

@jmacbeth People eee it as the hands, but the shoulder startes the system - once the shoulder goes out and over, the arms and hands can only follow. Change the movement of the shoulder and those change with it.

Great and simple example on how the right shoulder influences the downswing and when executed properly, gives a perfect swing. This is applicable to most golfers. Thanks
