The Golf Swing Basic You Are Getting Wrong - The Shoulder Turn Cheat

If you have inconsistent ball striking and want to learn how to pure your golf shots every single time, this video will shed some light on the BIGGEST backswing mistake we see amateur golfers making when it comes to hitting quality golf shots as often as possible.

It’s just a simple shoulder turn move that’s causing all the issues and the best part? It’s easy to fix…

In this video lesson, I break down a really simple number that’s a huge reason why so many golfers struggle to hit consistent golf shots: shoulder tilt.

We know all about shoulder turn, but it’s no good turning your shoulders if you’re not going to tilt them too. It causes more problems than it fixes when you do one without the other.

Most pros have around 40–45° of shoulder tilt through impact, while amateurs tend to stand up too early, causing thin, fat, and weak shots. We don’t want this!

In this video we’ll cover:

- The correct shoulder tilt and why it matters for low point control.
- How to keep your lead elbow inside your body line for cleaner, more compressed strikes.
- Two easy drills to help you feel the right movement and release pattern.
- Why better tilt equals better contact, more power, and straighter golf shots.

When you try this drill, does it feel easier to keep your lead hand on the club? Tell me in the comments below!
