Initially, I usually skip amateur videos, as they are so badly produced, but this one, the guy has video editing skills and then, what he said really makes sense to me and I think it relates a little to my swing as well. I'm not so sure I agree w/him about holding the right scapula back, but the rest, I think he's making some good points here. Agree/disagree?

If the right shoulder is lower, the right elbow does not have to be as extended to reach the golf ball.

Basic geometry stuff there… and basically what he's done. I am not sure I love how bent his right elbow still is - if it's too bent, that's also leaving power and speed on the table.

I didn't like his "feel" of keeping the right shoulder retracted, either.

      Approach Play to Elevated / Lowered Greens?

      By Shindig · Posted

      Can you elaborate on this?  There's a par-4 hole at the course I've played the most (was my home course for over a decade, now 50 miles away but I still go and play there) whose green is below the fairway and I realized recently it's one of three holes on the course I've never made birdie, despite that I often have a short iron into the green for my second shot.  It isn't even that I haven't made birdie, but I realize I often don't hit the green.  My typical play of the hole is to have a near-GIR and sometimes I get up and down, but not as often as I would if I were trying to 2-putt.
