This guy is talking left only. Ben Hogan loaded all of his right side and released everything from the right side with a pull and rotation of left hip. Good luck if you think left for a right handed golfer. This is full of shit. And it makes me mad if someone tells me you take the racket with your right hand but then hit the ball with your left arm. Bull shit. Sorry

@RobertMirzakhanian This video does not say that you only swing or even think of hitting with your left arm. There are two videos to this set. One is designed to "isolate" the feeling of how the left arm works in the backswing and the other is to "isolate" the feeling in the right so that people can understand what each arm is doing to create your backswing plane . It's a drill for feeling back swing movement only in each arm and has no bearing on the "feeling" of what is to occur into the hit.

Good stuff just discovered that I am not rotating my left forearm properly.

@bassworship50 I know it sounds complicated but i am simply explaiing the positions you need to put your body in to keep the clubface square throughout impact. The idea of the golf swing is the deliver the clubface squarely at the ball consitently for consistent results. So why would you open and close the clubface throughout the golf swing? The one plane swing is not a realistic explanation of the golf swing. there is no universal plane because nobody has the EXACT same body type

@rippendorber That's just to much to do within the swing of a one planer...

@RobertMirzakhanian You obviously now nothing about golf! Studying Jeff's videos got me shooting from the high 90's to the low 80's.

[rippendorber]

you just dont need to open the clubface up....if you hinge your wrists at a 45 degree angle and maintain it throughout your backswing by internally rotating your bicep the clubface stays square throughout the entire swing.....then it is a matter of rotating the lower body correctly to keep the club square, but all this open the club up and on plane stuff is way wrong and brings a lot of error into the picture.....

@MrSteckleinjr Jees, still banging on about golf magazines. So what.  People do publish things that are wrong you know!!!! Do we have to take everything published as gospel, even if we don't believe it. Not that I believe the gospel

[MrSteckleinjr]

@RobertMirzakhanian this dude's in golf magazines. it doesn't mean he's the world's foremost on golf instruction, but i'm yet to see the name mirzakhanian in anything i subscribe to! and if you want people to listen to your argument, try presenting your case in a clean, professional manner.

[RobertMirzakhanian]

Ok Jeff I'm sorry about the previous comment. You are absolutely right because most amateur think of left. But I recommend if one just starting the backswing with a soft rotation of shoulders and lift with the right arm and let the left arm relaxed and close to the body and not pull with the left arm, then swinging the club and not throwing the arms should give us a solid hit. Correct me if I'm wrong. Thnx for your good advise. I miss understood your point.

[RobertMirzakhanian]

All good as long as the left elbow is pointing straight down and not sideways. Very important
