The Body Rotation swings the Arms through to the finish. The Arms, Hands, & Club go for a ride. The Arms (with passive hands) are brought down thru and past impact all the way to the finish, by the body rotation. The hands and arms NEVER move on their own. There is a constant connection …
In a nutshell … If the face of the club opens, it has to be closed equal to the amount opened, or it won’t be square at impact. Realistically, what are the odds of this happening? Lets look at 2 variables: #1 – TIMING the open and close. – You’re at the range relaxed and …
At setup, the elbows point at the hips, then as you turn thru impact, they again point at the hips (tho the hips are slightly turned unwinding). This photo shows setup, then impact during a swing… not much difference. On the downswing the arms and hands are passive and just go along for a ride …

I think this analogy will help define what I mean when I use the term Large Muscles, and how the lower body, resists at the start of the takeaway, while the front shoulder starts the club straight back. If you were to hold a spring between your hands vertically, and your were to rotate both …
Given: Shoulders and Hips are in line with each other and parallel to your target line. Given: Arms and Putter hang directly under your shoulders (don’t reach out). Given: Eyes directly over target line. Given: Putter does not touch the ground EVER! Given: Lower body is Absolutely, Perfectly still during the stroke (pinch hold knees). …
