[12 piece bucket]

12PB

I never stated that one should allow the head to move 12" in response to the pelvic rotation. I merely stated that the head would move by that amount if the golfer didn't deliberately restrain that natural movement by keeping the head stationary. Keeping the head stationary forces the mid-upper thoracic spine to become verticalised, which is a necessary biomechanical phenomenon if one wants to keep the upper swinger center stationary during the swing (which is very desirable).

Jeff . . . Why should we pivot like that?

What does "natural" movement mean and in what context? Is there anything "natural" about swinging a golf club? I understand the deal with biomechanics . . . . but biomechanics to WHAT PURPOSE? Do biomechanic types know how golf clubs work?

Golf instructors have created a whole world of slicers with this concept that you have to "get behind the ball."

Question for you . . . .

How would you teach a beginner to draw the ball?
