My instructor wants me to move my head laterally, but only on the backswing. A full turn back with my left shoulder over the ball, weight on the inside of the right foot. Impossible to do (for my arthritic ass anyway) without the head moving off the ball.
BUT
He stresses that the head must not move ahead of the ball through impact. Move the right shoulder down and through, and hit into a firm left side. The head will return to the address position. From there I can swing the club up and over the shoulders, with a full balanced release.
That's the idea, anyway...
