- Posture (構え): Starts from a relatively wide base
with the heels a little wider than the shoulders. The chin
points at the ball with a slight shoulder tilt away from the
target. From this set-up it's easy to make a great shoulder
turn.
Take-away: The right knee should be stable and supporting
the backswing. Notice that both arms extend away from the
body, unlike most amateurs who keep their right arm too close
to the side.
Backswing: The forearms rotate as the upper body turns;
this rotation helps the golfer keep the clubface square at
the top of the swing.
Top: The shaft is positioned
directly over the hands and thumbs for maximum stability,
and time to unwind.

Downswing:
Don't rush the downswing - as it causes to destroy
the proper blending of the upper and lower body. Learning
how to coordinate the body turn with the arm rotation.
Impact: Rotating around the left
hip is critical; rotating through the shot and not toward
the ball. Accelerate the clubhead well past impact. This is
vital for producing consistent club-head speed shot to shot.
Follow-through: The head starts
rotating around and toward the target. As the head rotates
toward the target, it is easier for the body to release the
clubface through impact.
Finish: Be in good balance, weight
forward on your left side, belt buckle facing the target,
club to the left of the left shoulder, right arm extended
and right wrist flat.
