So, there’s a trail arm sequence that we’ve seen every great professional golfer do. We’re going to show you how to do that today. The trail arm is in front of your body to start with. As you swing it up, it swings over just a little bit kind of in line with this uh seam on my shirt. And immediately out of the top, I’m lowering that bottom of my trail arm, that tricep to my rib cage without narrowing that angle that I established at the top. And that gives you the ability to rotate the body and still get the hand path in a spot where okay, this is still playable and I can continue rotating. Lift in the back swing. It lowers more in the down swing than it lifts in the back swing. Then kind of tells you how important the lowering part of

    Boy, I need some help! I understand the arm lowers, but I seem to stall and flip/roll the right arm through impact. Any video/instruction on body rotation and stable clubface, while this right arm lowers?

  2. I am curious how the club is able to freely release laterally out towards the ball and not directly down at the ground if we lower the arms straight down.

    I know the body is rotating but it feels like if my only contact point with the club, my hands, are moving down only, then the club will want to go straight down and stand up instead of maintaining the initial lie angle or orientation with respect to the ball.

  3. When you say “lowers more in the downswing” do you mean it lowers more relative to the ground or relative to the torso because those can be two completely different moves if a player lowers their chest in the downswing or stays more upright

  4. Guys top notch as always. Without getting too technical is there an element of external rotation of the trail arm and an element of the trail arm is it called abduction / coming across your chest to get to club last parallel/ into the delivery position? Myles

  5. Guys when you do this, you’re going to have the tendency to swing it too inside and probably block it right. Remember that swing is on an arc and you still want to feel like you’re exiting left. Still keep it on that arc

  6. Golf instructors on you tube is like watching monkeys hitting a nuclear bomb with a rubber mallet to figure out how it works
