How far should you turn my shoulders in the backswing? 

This week I thought I would write about how much shoulder turn you need to make in the backswing. I commonly hear people say "I have been trying to make a big shoulder turn".

It is surprising to most people that the majority of PGA tour players only turn their shoulders between 74 and 86 degrees in the backswing. Any further than this leads to an inefficient golf swing. I have used Ian as an example below. 

When Ian first started having lessons with me his shoulder turn was 112 degrees. Yes, he is very flexible but this over rotation in the backswing was making it impossible for him to rotate his hips and shoulders efficiently in the downswing leading to excessive hand and arm manipulation. 

   

As you can see in the "after" picture on the right, Ian has now shortened his shoulder turn to 93 degrees, which is still more than we would ideally like, but already we have seen big improvements in the efficiency of his body rotation in the downswing. 

Efficient body rotation will vary massively between people. One of my students Mark, has had to shorten his shoulder turn to nearly 60 degrees to encourage more body rotation in the downswing. Best of all he has done this without having to sacrifice distance, he has actually gained some. 

If you would like to find out more about what is the most effective way for you to rotate your body during the swing, please click here to book a lesson or call 01625 586200 (Ext 2). We offer an introductory lesson for £9.99 for all new customers.


Thought of the week 

It didn't disappoint

Apart from the comfortable 17-11 score line in the Americans' favour, the 2016 Ryder Cup didn't disappoint. From the USA's Friday morning whitewash to McIlroy and Reed's enthralling ding-dong encounter on Sunday, we were treated throughout the three days.

"I've never seen golf of this quality before"
"We are watching golf you can only dream about"

These were just a couple of plaudits from the commentators during Sunday's play, one of which was from Ryder Cup veteran and 2014 Captain Paul McGinley. The level of golf really was that good. Take Garcia and Mickelson's titanic battle for example; they were a combined 14-under-par for their round - that's a scintillating 58.

Pressure? What pressure?

In what can only be described as a cauldron of emotions, the atmosphere was on the edge all week. Fist-pumps, heckling and shushing aside, the players' ability to produce their best golf in that situation was amazing and is something we can all learn from.

The key to performing under pressure - whether that's the Ryder Cup or in our Monthly Medal - is to have a consistent pre-shot routine. It is probably one of the most overlooked parts of the game, but it really will help to keep you calm and focused no matter the situation.

What's your pre-shot routine?
