King says that the shoulders should be square to the ball (parallel to target line) at impact: "A correct downswing movement must result in a powerful swing into and along the intended line of flight, through impact. For this to be achieved the shoulders must be square at impact, or better still, fractionally "closed".
This is quite different from what our own Greg Willis recommends in the right-hand drill: "In the down swing, use the turning of the hips and shoulders (in that order) to begin the rotation that causes the club to move through the impact zone. Your rotation of the hips and shoulders should be past where you were at setup, about 45 degrees."
This is not a minor difference, it seems to me. The position of the body at impact is a critical thing. Who is right?
