@Brodygolfs no
Very true, the shoulder turn must work in complete unison with the pivot, but it’s vital that your arms are positioned correctly and hands gripped on club at the right points.
look at my swing

The shoulder turn is old news. It is part of the pivot motion. However, I contend that focusing on this alone is a quick-fix solution that will last only for a few rounds. Tom is absolutely right, but the golf swing also involves correct positioning of the arms, hands and club at various points of the swing. You can turn your shoulders perfectly as Tom described, but you can also snatch the club too far in, or loop it out, and you’d lose consistency. “The secret is in the dirt,” says Hogan.
im going to go down to my car right now and get a club and try it out!!!
I’m glad I watched this.I’m gunna grag a club right now and try..
Tried it. Works like a charm. This guy is a class act and a genius.
yea rite. under 60 in 3 weeks maybe?
Have never heard anything of the sort and, after watching The Open this year, couldn’t bring myself to believe it, anyway.
An old golf buddy of mine (pro) has a pretty good program out now that guarantees you’ll get under 80 in two weeks. Golferbreak80dotcom
This is interesting…..Just watched a video by Ben Hogan and he started his legs moving very fast before his shoulders…just like Tom demonstated the way he used to do it and Jack always did. Today’s players all keeping their legs very quiet and turn at the shoulders the same way Tom does it now.
i will try it, have heard many secrets, the real secret is can you make your body do it.
have heard he is actually kind of a jerk when the camera is off, not like lee trevino or anything, but kind of a jerk none the less?
El golf no es deporte, el golf es Ocio, y una completa porqueria para vagos sin oficio ni beneficio.
Los vagos que practican esa porqueria ¡son tan flojos!, Que necesitan de un carrito de golf para no caminar de la misma vagancia y flojera que tienen.
Malditos vagos golfistas de su gran remariconadisima mierda. Me tienen harto estos vagos parasitos golfistas, sin oficio ni beneficio.
GOLF
is a cross-country game in which a player strikes a small ball with various clubs from a series of starting points (teeing grounds) into a series of holes on a course. The player who holes his ball in the fewest strokes wins. The origins of the game are difficult to ascertain, although evidence now suggests that early forms of golf were played in the Netherlands first and then in Scotland.

I stayed up to the early hours of the morning just wanting Tom Watson to win the British Open. When he missed that putt to put him into the playoff with Cink I knew he was ’sunk’. I didn’ want to watch him lose so I went to bed. He has my admiration and respect as a golfer and a gentleman…..there’s always next year.
what a class act this guy is!!!!
interesting stuff i cant wait to try that out
After months of frustration, THIS is the one tip that’s worked for me. Works right from the driver to the putter (yes, even the putter). Such a simple tip!
come take a look at my swing
that was the greatest thing i have ever seen in any sport ,a59 yr old maneven 2nd in golfs greatest championship is mindboggling
Even the great ones get the yips. The pressure of hitting that putt and the history it would have made was too much. He simply deccelerated at impact thus the poor putt. Clearly a result of nerves. I wish he would have made it.
a truly remarkable effort in the open
