In this video I discuss why focusing on the upper arm and shoulder is important to keep the upper arm from externally rotating, therefore collapsing at the shoulder during the backswing and swing. Then I demonstrate and explain my drill for the upper arm.
Note: my particular issue is a mix of horizontal and vertical collapse. I do the following:
1) in the backswing, the arm reaches back faster than the shoulders rotate. So that's what causes a more acute angle than 90 degrees. (rounding)
2) at the peak of my backswing, the arm reaches it's farthest point BEFORE my lead foot plants. (throw before plant)
3) in the swing, the shoulders initiate the swing, the arm lags behind, so it gets somewhat pinched by the torso. (more rounding)
