    The last part was the best part. Yes it does just happen when you swing with a proper grip and turn. Way overblown on golf sites recently which is doing more harm than good. Milo makes a good point about feel and how it’s different for each player; this is the teachers challenge. This is why I’ve said many times that the dirt is where you find it but a little guidance doesn’t hurt. lol

    Love this Milo, it's something I talk about a lot to golfers. I like the explanation about maintaining the wrist angles because this is the part most often missed by golfers. 100% correct, some golfers will have to work more on training the hands individually before allowing the pivot/transition to naturally get the club to shallow. Cheers

    Beautifully demonstrated and executed gents! This was my missing piece in downswing. I would lower arms but had internal arm rotation in downswing and pull/ pull hook, I stored that I thought but still pulled until I did this little twist at beginning of downswing and didn't internally slap wrist at the ball. Hand/ wrist was going forward and not rotating clockwise as you demonstrated. Huge miss I think for people working on transition and lag and getting arm in position only to have hand and wrist not turning correctly. Awesome job guys and big thanks!

    Milo this may be the gem I needed. Been spending a long time trying to get shallow EARLY. I can do it in my slow swings pretty well, but full speed I tug on the club and get shallow late and flip + early extend and all that good stuff. It was frustrating knowing WHERE I needed to get to do in transition, but not having a feel that could reliably get me there. This did it for me. Bowing the lead wrist, throwing the trail elbow at the ball were feels that worked great for me in slow and partial swings, but this has me shallow properly with all swings. Can finally rotate and rip through.

    I have a confession Milo, i never really understood this and ive watched this video probably close to 50 times. It just never felt natural. I happened upon a Monte Scheinblum video about 'no cast turn' and went down the rabbit hole. Tried it at the driving range and its completely changed my swing and impact position and best of all, this move now feels natural. Which has brought me full circle back to this video where i can now finally say, you're a genius Milo! I have to feel like i initiate my swing with this move, but this helps ball flight consistency like crazy. I can actually hit controlled fades and draws 90% of the time now 😳

    I’m training this right now and it’s sickkkk. Pushing the lead hip back helps as well… but this move is what is getting a 7 iron to 45-50 degrees (when lead arm parallel to ground). Obviously, all this is a means to an end, the end being low dynamic loft (shaft lean) and a low and left release. If you don’t intend on doing those things then don’t bother, you’ll end up extending trail hip to re-steepen the shaft or have one weird release.

      @@MiloLinesGolf a great topic for a video to build on this one would be some discussion of how to slow the transition for those of us moving from a steep to shallow downswing. In my time working on this, the one thing I've noticed is when I revert back to my old tendencies of being steep, it always corresponds to going too quick in transition (or at least that's my perception). The end results is going back to the chunks/thins problem like before the changes. It also seems to mostly happen with the short irons. I'm guessing it's just naturally harder mentally to shallow the short irons since they are designed to be swung more upright.

    Hi Milo, Just started bingeing on your vids and loving the content. I have some back and knee issues from too much rugby in my youth, so being as dynamic as I used to be is tough. But following your stuff has helped a lot in getting some athleticism back without pain. Tried this doorknob technique yesterday and the ball striking was fantastic...maybe a little pull hook with the driver, so I am looking at your other vids to counter act that at the next range session...but i went from 125 yards with a PW to 140, just using this one drill with a more athletic pivot. Will try to take it to the course next week. Is this move similar as looking at it from the other way where you could say the left hand is twisting as if decelerating a motorbike throttle? The two seem to go hand in hand if you pardon the pun. Thanks Milo. Happy New Year!

      Maybe hit a few short shots with just your trail arm so you can feel that the tension needs to be a bit softer to allow the club to fall behind. Focus on the pivot returning the club and feel the weight of the club. Too much tension will prohibit the club from doing so.

    Milo, I just started working your swing thoughts over the last few weeks with some decent success especially when I do it slowly. It goes sideways when I try to add speed, but it is nice seeing a different swing move then what I had. Now, would you suggest I put this supination move on hold till I am more consistent with the basics or is this something to immediately start working on?

    Great video. Do you think that in addition to the trail forearm supinating while the trail wrist stays in flexion that t he trail wrist is also going into ulnar deviation?

    I’ve always wondered why this isn’t mentioned more? I see it in many great players but have never heard them mention it. I find it’s also helpful to understand a “Moment Arm” to explain the difference in shallowing the club and being too steep. Show this to Mike. He has said he never had much luck trying to shallow the club. Trying to shallow with rotation always ends up with me pulling the club down. If I time this clockwise rotation of the hands( looking back at my hands, counter clockwise if you are standing behind player) it is the secret. I’m not even sure if you can even over do it.

    Those of you who follow Mike Malaska should recognize this turn the doorknob move that they’re doing: Mike illustrates with various things in his hands, like a steering wheel or a tennis racket. It’s the same wrist movement he uses to start his downswing and shallow the club. You can trace this move all the way back to Ben Hogan, who described the start of his downswing this way: “I feel like I’m taking an arrow out of a quiver.” Reach back to the arrow in an imaginary quiver strapped across your back and watch your hand as you begin to lift it out and clear of the quiver. Your hand moves just like it would turning a doorknob. By the way, this is also how your hand behaves if your first move was to throw the club head backward along the target line, like Stan Utley taught Charles Barkley, which eventually cured Bartley’s horrendous swing.

I've shown many range friends this as a move I use as a source of power when I want to crank it up.

      ​@@MiloLinesGolf thanks Milo, looking forward to it. Believe I've watched most all your videos especially on this topic. p6 through impact p8(?) has always been my quandry as the arms, forearms and wrists can move in so many different ways & degrees. of course it's ideal if the movements are "natural" but I believe most natural won't occur for most AMs because we've already been doing something deliberate.
      I have personally found that for myself, deliberately unhinging R wrist extension to flexion with low tension negates the need to focus on ulnar deviation. No sure how correct that is.

    Hi Milo, thanks for the vid. I still have trouble understanding how to square up by impact. If one supinates the trail arm at any point, then they must undo that supination by impact. Appreciate your clarification. PS when Henry is demonstrating the move his palm is facing the camera, whereas in a golf swing it would be more facing skyward.

    Milo: do you subscribe to the feeling of "holding the tray" at the top with the right palm facing upwards? If so, wouldn't this move would be similar to placing the tray on a table? This a great move, but hard to incorporate.

    Bob Toski in his 1973 book 'COMPLETE GUIDE TO BETTER GOLF' pg. 45 writes: 'And here is a final tip to help you retrain your shoulders. Stand upright with your right arm hanging at your side, then gradually turn the arm clockwise. Note how your upper arm and elbow readily move in close to your side.If you can apply this same turning motion to the arm at the start of your downswing, I think you'll find it much easier to lead with your legs and follow with your shoulders. You may feel as though your clubhead is never going to catch up with your hands in time. Don't worry - it will.'

    A similar motion was mentioned by Monte Scheinblum in his "no turn/cast" drill. in which the golfer has a feel of casting the club behind him at the start of the downswing. I think it's the equivalent of turning the doorknob, which for me works better than the casting thought. I used it to help my long suffering brother in law with his swing. I'm no pro, but it helped him to imagine the shaft as a fishing rod. Feel, not real.

    It would be so much easier to grab a tennis ball, go to a local school and play a little hand ball against the brick wall focusing on hitting with top spin. You will ingrain the timing of the move and body motion all at the same time. This door knob turning idea is fine but until you ingrain the timing you will get lost for years.

    Milo Lines, you blab as much as Russell Heritage, but you give less information than Pete Cowan. Instead of bloviating, why don't you use a camera shooting from face on, down the line, & above to make your point? Moreover, rotating your hand or your wrist when you could have moved your whole arm in its socket is stupid ergonometrics. Go buy a Nowicki "Impact Snap Tool" & use it to demo club shallowing. That's smarter than your all too vague groping around for the right words.
