The engine of the golf swing is the body.  It first and foremost provides stability and a base of operations for the arms, hands, wrists and club to swing from.  The "Big Muscle" theory that the big muscles control the so-called small muscles is misleading at best.  "Turn, Turn" is another over-simplification that is not helping many golfers.  Please watch the following video to get my explanation of what role the body plays in the swing.

Just taped my swing at your February 30 minute analysis. The second drill will help with the swing flaw I saw in the video. Very timely.
