Hit Better Shots with Level Shoulders at Impact

If you are a habitual hip spinner and have all that secondary axis tilt we discussed in the "Hip Spinners" video, the next step for you is to work on your shoulder and spine alignments at impact.

Hip spinners are always coming out of the shot. They hit a lot of thin shots and really struggle with the longer clubs, especially fairway woods off the deck. They simply do not hit the longer clubs solidly.

They develop so much tilt that the lead shoulder tends to pull up and out of the swing, getting the hands too far in front of the ball. As a result, they cannot strike down on the ball effectively, so they end up hitting a lot of really thin shots.

Once you have gone through the Belt Buckle Drill, you are getting yourself stacked into impact position over the lead leg and your hips feel like they are staying shut. The next thing you want to work on is axis tilt and level shoulders at impact.

Let us start with axis tilt at impact. Many golfers develop significantly more tilt than they need for a stock shot.
