Sure . . . .

Get a dowel or clubshaft and go to the top of your backswing . . . take the dowel/shaft in your left hand and stick it on your right shoulder vertical to the ground and make you right shoulder "mimick" that trajectory . . . note how that would shift your low point backwards . . . now put the shaft/dowel on an "incline" like a roof . . . note how your shoulder has to move down AND OUT . . . if your shoulder just works vertical it screws up your low point . . . if it works down OUT AND FORWARD you don't compromise low point . . so the shoulder has to work OUT TO THE BALL as well as down.

Note how much more forward Hogan's right shoulder is . . .



See how the shoulder works down and OUT TO THE BALL . .
