In today’s video on how to transition from the backswing to downswing in full detail.
Changing of directions from the top of the backswing to the starting of the downswing is the most important part of the golf swing.
Learning the perfect transition isn’t hard. You’ll soon realize that you’ve been loading your muscles and rotating in the wrong order this whole time and that’s why you struggle with your golf swing.
Drills to Shallow the Shaft
Shallowing the shaft in the downswing is not imperative but it will make things easier for any golfer heading into impact.
These are my four favorite drills to help you gain a better sense for what is required to shallow the shaft in transition.

Right Shoulder Movement In The Golf Swing Pros vs Ams
We’ve looked at the how the left shoulder moves in elite golf swings, now we’ll look at the right shoulder movements. The shoulders need to work well together but many golfers just think “the shoulders” move as a unit… that’s not the case at all.
Each shoulder has a large range of motion so it’s not a given they will move together in the best interest of our golf swing.
Hopefully, this video will help shed some light on a few of the key differences we see between how pros typically move their shoulders compared to how many ams move them.
