I've always heard the advice hit against a firm left side..I really would like to know exactly what they mean by "firm left side"..if i try it..It seems to inhibit my pivot but i may be doing it wrong..

I figured this one out a while back. The Shoulders stop when they line up with he Hips. That also determines the point when both arms are "straight".

Tom - what do you mean when you state that the shoulders stop when they line up with the hips? It is my impression that the shoulders continue turning so that the right shoulder is much closer to the target than the left shoulder at the finish position, while the pelvis faces the target.

The point in the swing when the body stops (firm left side). The arms catch up and pass the body. Wherever the hips stop the shoulders will get to that point and also stop there (momentarily) then after the arms pass they will both continue on their journey.
Tom - how can a golfer possibly stop the shoulders temporarily while the left hip is pivoting over a straightening left leg (while the golfer is pivoting his pelvis around a firm left side)? I have never seen the shoulders temporarily stop rotating during the downswing/early followthrough of the full driver golf swing of a PGA tour golfer.

The "Snapping" of the Kinetic Chain is simply a term to describe the SEVERE SLOWING of—first—the hips, then the shoulders, then the arms, then the hands.
It is an established FACT of elite golfers, that every 3-D motion sysytem has confirmed.

I'd like to know the answer to this one too
A while ago I asked a similar question and Brian said (jump in here BM) that the front leg typically begins to straighten as your right arm does. However, I'm not sure if that front leg is supposed to be straight or somewhat flexed at impact.
FWIW, it feels a helluva lot more powerful w/ a straight-er front leg then flexed.

Thanks for the video Brian.
Best drill i've seen for getting left shoulder up and back. I reckon I could whack someone pretty hard with my left shoulder doing that drill.
Us slightly rounder guys get to feel the right side squish more than the skinny ones too
