Best tip I ever got on this was to "feel" like my lead shoulder goes down in the backswing. It got rid of my pull shots and turned them into draws. A turning point in my golf journey.
Trevor I first saw You on Cogorno golf.I became a subscriber to your channel as well.This video explains a lot. You have a great way of teaching/ explaining The Golf swing....Keep it up.Thanks
i enjoy hearing the technical terms for the body movements because since i've been working on the rotational pivot type swing i have come to look at it that way with adduction, abbduction, flexion, extension, radial flexion, ulnar deviation etc. thnx.
Great videos Trevor, clear explanations. The only issue I have is that you are interchanging anatomical movement definitions. It is scapula ABduction that moves the shoulder into PROtraction. Shoulder ABduction occurs in the coronal plane (out to the side). Most of the movements you are describing are actually scapula ABduction (protraction) and scapula ADduction (retraction). If the arm is raised in front (shoulder flexion) and then moved laterally, (scapula ADduction) is causing the arm to ABduct. Since we are rotating at the same time there is very little shoulder ABduction happening, certainly shoulder flexion and a lot of scapular movement.
Truly appreciate you taking the time to write this out! I’m always open to constructive criticism like this and I do appreciate it! If you ever want to chat over the phone and talk the golf swing I would love to! Thanks again! 🙏🙏
You have a knack for dropping a video that is what I need to work on. Head still / eyes down the line + don’t release trail foot early and now add the “get the shoulders in sequence piece”. When I practice this “around around” it feels more like I’m starting the takeaway with the lead shoulder and starting the downswing with the lead hip would that be right ?
That’d be a good way of saying it! Especially getting pressure to lead side early in transition! Thanks for sharing my man and let me know if you need anything! 👊👊
Mike Austin was on about abduction of trail while addicting the lead shoulder at the end of the backswing for some final decrees of turn and massive coiling up. On one of the Mike Dunaway tapes.
it looks like florida in the background if so maybe i could look you up when i get down that way again for in person lesson. i like your style. i've done a lot of golf in the tampa and orlando area over the years.
Wish this was taught with more emphasis on shoulder plane. The incorrect turn is one in which the shoulders turn on a plane that is too flat and leads to a change in spine angle. The correct turn is one in which the shoulders rotate on the same plane as the stationary shine. It’s a lot easier to grasp.
I’m still trying to learn to turn correctly. I’ve been fighting a flat shoulder turn where I lose my spine angle for a long time. Feel is not real and working alone has not got me where I want to be. I wish I was closer where I could get some time with you and work on it in person with direct feedback in real time. When I’m swinging well I shoot around par. When I get off it’s mid 80s. So frustrated with the game right now.
Mr Trevor.. Hobbled onto your 'simplistic abductutorial'' and after resuscitating the Kangol, flashed back to circa 2007ish in the mist of a Mr Plummer / Sir Charles Wi lll session.. Bona fide indeed.. Digg'n the flow, and was ponder'n if you offer an on-line coaching medium? Thanks many.. dB
Thank you! Andy is one of the greats! I do offer online instruction plus I have an online community In heavily involved in! Would love to chat with you about any of it! Here is a link for a free consultation call if you’d like: calendly.com/trevorsalzmangolf/free-15-minute-consultation TS
No golf without proper shoulder mechanics. I kept bumping my left shoulder on my chin, shrugging somewhere in the backswing. Go figure. This cleans it up beautifully.
This is what I see when I watch pros swing..yet instructors preach Toro turn.. My only concern with this instruction is that it really has to be combined with correct lower body movement instruction or you would create an army of golfers doing static movements
This vid as well is mostly talking about the movement of the shoulders. I agree the ground / pelvis especially is something that should be added to motion.

Awesome stuff! It is a big piece of ball striking for sure! Glad to hear it helped and thanks for sharing!
Trevor, I love this video. It provides a much better understanding of the proper movements of the shoulders. Can’t wait to practice this!!!
Great to hear! Thanks for sharing! 👊👊👊
Really clear. Cannot wait to develop this. Thank you
Thank you!
This is absolutely impeccable. So simple to understand. Thank you!
Appreciate it! Means a lot! Thank you!
This videos helps tons, thanks coach!!!
👊👊👊

It is good to comprehend what the movements are and how the help us move the golf club in more functional manners

good video and info, i've done the towel drill but not with a club in hand, gonna try it and i know it's gonna help. thnx.
Awesome! Please do let me know how this all works out!

It is a better coil I’d say for sure!
Super great explanation and a couple great drills to do at home 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you! Hope it helps and let me know if you have any questions or need anything!

It in north Miami (Aventura) at Turnberry. Would love to have you out for a session! Here is my calendar link below:

I wish I would have learned this earlier in my life golfing too. Hope it helps and let me know if you have any questions or need anything!

Hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions!
is the point of this drill to get rid of all spine turn or should you still have some spine turn coupled with hip turn too?
This is just referring to the shoulders here. The pelvis will work a bit and ribcage area as well!

Awesome to hear! Glad this helps!
What I’ve gathered is:
Turn=coiling
Turn does not =spinning
Bingo!!!!
The "turn" has been so misunderstood and mis-teched in the past. This is what it should have been all along.
Couldn’t agree more! Thanks for sharing

People need to remember that your spine is in your back, not your chest. Rotate around it.
Love it! Thanks for sharing!
Love ya bro...but WAY TOO complicated
Let me know if you have any questions. Happy to help if I can!
