Pls. clarify between clearing of the left side/hip to get out of the way, and letting the swing of the arm unit bring body to the left side or to the finish. The first way seems to let the lower body lead to the full finish, while the later way seems to want the upper body or the arms to lead. A little confused... Thx.

@jwjw11 Sure! I have the perfect video for this called "arms and body timing: shawn clement" as well as "stop crashing; shawn clement"; you can also see the "top view of swing; shawn clement" as the full review of both; Shawn

Hi Shawn, could you please recommend one of your videos that discusses how you move into the finish after impact. It's amazing how you go from the powerful "squat" to that relaxed upright finish. There seems to be a split second where all of the stored energy is absorbed into the left leg (one leg drill). I'm guessing that you will say that it is important to still be in the "squat" at impact in order to avoid thin contact. Thanks

Sorry for the late response Dan; very busy summer and trying to catch up! The squat is a very instinctive position once you understand the feel of the swing; imagine pushing a kid on a swing from the side, and it is an older, bigger kid...you wait till the kid starts to come back down and then as you get ready to push can you feel how you are getting ready by squatting?

This is why it is early morning and raining! :) No worries, I like getting around in 3 hours or less for 18 holes; my routine is routinely 25 seconds or less and we don't spend any time looking for balls...:)

Hey Rushey; it is the other way around; they were on the right track up until the 60s when they started analyzing video and giving opinions without knowing how the body works under the hood; Bobby Jones, Sam Snead, Ben Hogan, Moe Norman, Billy Casper, Byron Nelson...you are going to ignore them? You can go ahead and follow the rest of them like a sheep or you can check out my "golf pro lesson learn your golf machine and have our life size skeleton teach you a thing or 2; Shawn

hmm rushey1 I would like to see your videos about the golf swings. You're going around a lots of shawn's video and making negative comments about Shawn's teaching. Let me see how well your own system of golf swing is.. Anyway my swing is getting better and better from Shawn's DVD and his youtube videos, Thanks Shawn

If hip turn is so important as fellow teaching pros claim it is, explain Dennis Walters! [hdcap'ed golfer who sits in a cart and plays golf] Please stop teaching hip turn as the engine of the swing...shift weight and swing your arms....so much easier for the amatuer players to understand....the turning of the hips is the result of the weight shift and the free swinging of the arms.....most PGA Tour Pro's hips actually stop for a few frames at impact and after to allow the arms to swing thru.
