Penick uses the Hip Turn of 7-14 to move the right shoulder and elbow together (one move).

Tom's demonstration in that section with the right arm coming down lacked rhythm (what I mean by that is the lower body didn't move with the movement of the right forearm).....Tommy was over stating the move.....trust me, when the move is executed with proper rhythm as you will see Tommy demonstrate in the following chapters, the move is like Penick's magic move...the weight shifts as Tommy brings the arms (right elbow) down..it's one move...the body is reacting to the motion of the right forearm...however, Penick's description of the magic move is not a complete swing....it's the first part of the swing...it's what Homer calls start down and it ends at the downstroke phase per chapter 8....

On page 96 of the Little Red Book (the Magic Move)....Penick does not mention any move by the hips....

Says Penick (pg. 82)
"What is happening is that your golfing brain and your muscles are learning to start your downswing by planting your weight and moving your lower body to the left, and you are coming to the ball from inside with your hands quiet, trailing and still cocked, not leading and spending energy."

The Hip Turn of 7-14 and 2-N-1-B was the "moving your lower body to the left" I made reference to.

I do, however, look forward to your commentary and the remaining segments of the video.
