    Every video committed to the SAME set of principles. No quick fix clickbait. A proper deep dive into how the sequence synchronises. My practice net is THUMP CITY right now as my understanding grows. Love it.

    It's crazy how "automatic" my hips have become since switching to focusing on upper body movement... No more spin out! And more importantly I'm releasing the club (properly) without fear for perhaps the first time in my life! I noticed the massive clubhead speed increase because of that. Thanks guys.

    The elevation/depression/ protraction your show and describe of the right scapula opposite of the lead scapula , to me I feel my trail side scapula simply doing clockwise twirl exiting left to the completion of my swing. Cheers🥂😊😊

    EGS has done it again. I got on the EGS train about a month or so ago after seeing you on Milo Line’s channel. You have completely overhauled & simplified my swing in that time. I’m already hitting the ball better by adopting a system that fits my “athletic dna.” This video specifically encapsulates a ton of stuff, including a shallowing approach that I can understand as well as explaining how body movements can trigger the correct scapula movement. Please keep it coming (short game, anyone?).

  • @bluerider310

    Excellent video, this explanation paired with the pelvis videos really makes alot of sense. The pelvis is more passive to the scapula movement.

    such good content! Been talking like this with my golf friends for years, and we are all just out of touch with enough anatomical knowledge to truly have a discussion on this level, with the sport knowledge we already know to be true. The idea of a biomechanical process that is optimal for the person not the motion is something i have always liked and been implementing in bowling successfully out of a pro-shop since me and my college coach started the discussion years ago. Spreading the word about content like this any time i can! thank you so much for sharing the knowledge!

    Probably one of the most insightful videos I've seen. Love it. This is rarely talked about in such detail, and it really helped me figure out some of my swing issues I couldn't put into words. Thank you so much. So many videos are body postion based, but they dont really go into what muscles are firing to get you there.

    Thank y’all for all the videos you post. I just started golfing 2 months ago. My first round I shot 152. I found your channel and practiced at home and at the range for 4 weeks while watching your videos over and over. My 2nd time out shot a 129. Yall are awesome.
    I’ve gained a lot of confidence with my irons, my driver is still very inconsistent. I seen drivers vs. wedges, could y’all do a more in depth video of using the driver. I seen TJ post on IG fairway finder and bustin it.
    Shirts are fire btw. Stay blessed fellas.

  • @s3gts
    @s3gts 10 місяців тому +1

    Another winner gentlemen. Better players love under plane. But this can be problematic when taken too far. Understanding the T & C spine load is huge. When you got to the pectoral/rib spiral is when I could relate big time. The Ribcage Slinging the Humerus is Huge. Once the club has risen and has begun to fall (above/below) the plane, you can cover the ball with the right pectoral. That simple thought, stops you from being too far under or over. In order to cover you have to engage the entire spiral lines and the Scapulars will behave nicely. Well done!

  • @KellyGerling
    @KellyGerling 10 місяців тому

    Riley, a suggestion: please, in some future videos, show YOUR swing - full speed and slow motion - from face-on and down-the-line, with a wedge and a driver. That way we can see the swing you are teaching exactly the way you swing it. That wholeness can help unify the dynamic parts you are teaching so well.

  • @tomn5188
    @tomn5188 10 місяців тому

    A question - it has always seemed to me that when you guys talk about rotating the ribs that the ribs have very little rotation they can do independent of the pelvis. However, if you include the motion of the trail scap retracting and then protracting (while the lead scap does the complimentary motion) the ribs appear to have a wide range of motion. Is this the rotation of the ribs you are trying to get us to understand? If this is true, then the pelvis/legs are bracing us as we deliver the club and then act as a shock absorber to allow us to decelerate safely. Am I getting it? Or, is this a rabbit hole? Many thanks for the video.

    • @elitegolfschools
      @elitegolfschools  10 місяців тому +1

  • @CervezaFria33

    Would the scaps load differently for hitting a draw versus hitting a fade?

    • @elitegolfschools
      @elitegolfschools  10 місяців тому +1

      You’d probably feel more trail scap retraction in transition to hit a draw and less to hit a fade 🙏

  • @Jamruns
    @Jamruns 10 місяців тому +1

    I needed this one. I feel like this is the missing link of your UA-cam videos. Question: what is the starting position of the scaps?

    • @elitegolfschools
      @elitegolfschools  10 місяців тому +1

      Pretty neutral! Slightly depressed and protracted

  • @sagsupply2009
    @sagsupply2009 4 місяці тому +1

    Hi seems like to simplfy we just have our trail scapula follow a circle....

    • @elitegolfschools
      @elitegolfschools  4 місяці тому +1

      Yeah baby! Shapes!

    • @sagsupply2009
      @sagsupply2009 4 місяці тому

      this is a brilliant move. pulling the trail scapula is a great way to move your backswing but the circle is amazing and almost completes the swing. adding a small drop or squat at the start of the downswing assimilates perfectly with the scapula circle....then since the squat is moving down on trail side... the opposite move is slingshotting the body up through impact which adds speed and thus distance. thank you

  • @thegreatproductspage1860
    @thegreatproductspage1860 10 місяців тому

    so the rib cage moving forward , passively retracts the scap.

  • @Paul-gi9fm
    @Paul-gi9fm 10 місяців тому +1

    Is the depression and elevation causing the shifting of weight to the lead side?

  • @markjoyce6772
    @markjoyce6772 3 місяці тому

    So does that mean at address your arms should be at your side. Or does your scraps need to be protracted like a bear hug.

    • @elitegolfschools
      @elitegolfschools  5 місяців тому

      Definitely into the depths here! The shoulder complex is fairly difficult to describe as there are four bones that make up the entire complex compared to the two lines that make up the hip complex. Definitely loads of different ways to swing the club though brother. Hope you hit them well 🙏🙏

  • @Bluedolphin53
    @Bluedolphin53 3 місяці тому

    Guys, so the left scap descends on the backswing but does not protract? I think I've been protracting that lead shoulder AND retracting the trail shoulder almost at the start of my bs all this time! I guess sort of a fake shoulder turn?

    • @elitegolfschools
      @elitegolfschools  3 місяці тому +1

      It will, but the protraction will occur in the transitionary phase ideally
