I started this program two weeks ago and my golf game is 100 percent better since starting. I have used the 90 % weight forward and straight arm drill with success while playing and also at the range. For some reason when I really concentrate on tilting and turning my left shoulder to the ball, I hit the ground really deep and struggle with any good contact at all. When I just turn and don't think about the shoulder the contact is usually better. I really want to do the correct tilt so I can keep improving but not sure if this is something I should continue pressing. Any suggestions would help, I haven't been able to produce a video as of yet.
Thanks

I can relate to the original poster's comment. And I figured this out almost exactly to what Tom stated. I picked "shoulder down" rather than think "tilt". I practiced this inside all winter (in the living room, with no ball, just alignment sticks :)) on simply tilting, slowly, so I guess I sort of engrained that feeling.
I like the simple mantra... left shoulder down... right shoulder down
@mjaspering - If you are focusing on both tilting and turning your lead shoulder down, you are likely doing too much of a good thing and creating too sharp of a groundward angle. Try choosing one or the other - either shoulder down or tilt - while keeping your head in place in order to determine which of these feels works best for you.
Keep up the great work!
