The average PGA Tour player moves his head only one inch during the swing.
This is important because when your head is relatively steady, you can see the ball without relying on your peripheral vision, making hitting the ball solidly that much easier! To keep your head relatively steady, stretch your right side (for a right-handed golfer) from your ankle to your armpit, removing the wrinkles from your pants and shirt and forming a line up the side of your body. Simultaneously, move your left shoulder downward as it rotates away from the target. These movements allow the shoulders to turn 90° to the address spine angle and complete a centered shoulder turn.
The steady head provides a reference point for this centered turn and sets the foundation for the remaining keys.
