Shoulder Turn and Distance

[c21heel]

Out of curiosity, how much do you folks think a good shoulder turn on the backswing equates to distance one hits the ball. More specifically, how much distance do you think is generated from a 90 degree shoulder turn versus a 30 degree shoulder turn.

And, for my education, why isn't the shoulder turn considered a power accumulator? Thanks.

c21heel,

If you own or have access to The Golfing Machine read and study the fourth power accumulator closely.

I own the Golfing Machine Book, but do not have it with me at the moment. I failed to pack it for my trip.

If I recall, the fourth accumulator is where the left arm and shoulder connect. I believe this accumulator is released when the arm blasts away from the chest, but of course, I could be wrong.

From very much to not much.

More specifically, how much distance do you think is generated from a 90 degree shoulder turn versus a 30 degree shoulder turn.

It really depends. For equal lag loading and sustaining, very much. For equal clubhead momentum through impact, not much.

Why not? It's supposed to be for any part that moves.

Shoulder Motions displace and transport the triangular power package structure in space. Accumulators go 'out of line' to accumulate power and delivers power when coming back 'inline'.
