Re: reverse pivot

Usually when your over rotate your hips in the backswing you are compensating for rotating the shoulders. What usually happens is the player over rotates the hips because he/she dips the left shoulder and causes a reverse weight shift. If a correct shoulder turn was made initially, the over rotation of the hips probably wouldn't occur. If you try to make a full shoulder turn AND over rotate your hips, you can not longer even see the ball.
