Actually, not necessarily. This would be true if the left shoulder was moving in its own little orbit that contains an upwards direction IF the left arm/club was perpendicular to the shoulder line. The fact that it's normally not- "leans forward" i.e. the arm hasn't come across the chest completely, creates an offsetting factor. Also, you are assuming that there is no other downward movement of the clubhead as a result of the wrist uncocking or any other downward motion affecting the clubhead.

I would of let this slide if you had said "for concept purposes" or if you assumed a fixed "arm - club" perpendicular to the shoulder line (don't get nit picky on the perpendicular- if you need more details I'll supply it) but this holds no such disclaimer.

Should we go on Okie? Or do you need a moment to get a beer out of the fridge?

Can you prove the above? I'm not saying your wrong . . . but time somebody says "the shoulders turn perpendicular to the spine." You say, "What are your sources?"

So . .. What are YOUR sources?

Let's go dork.
