Re: level hips, a myth or not

it is interesting when talking about shoulder turn because turning the shoulders 110 degrees is a myth. Biomechanically Your spine can only turn so much, I believe it is about 70*. The Illusion of more shoulder turn is caused by the right shoulder blade drawing more on the back while the left shoulder blade coming more towards the chest.

On tiger restricting hip turn i guess he does it like most everyone else. By keeping the left heel on the ground and the position or his right foot at address. I really dont see how that is restricting hip turn, because the body will not let them turn anymore they are restricted?
