Left shoulder through impact(Toms)

After watching the clip of David Toms' driver it looked like to me that his left shoulder through impact was going backwards which makes him look like he is falling back. Is that my perception or does that really happen? In otherwards, going through impact does anyone know exactly what the left shoulder should do?

Right shoulder is going down, out, foward
Left shoulder is going up, in, and back

Its an opposite relationship, so when one goes down the other is going up and when one is going out the other is going in, etc etc.

So that is why he looks like he is falling back but he's really not.
 
If the left shoulder is moving back when the clubhead is moving forward is it still possible to have a good weight shift to the left side? It seems to me you would hang back on your right side.

What a great little video! Well you know, 10 seconds or whatever makes it little, but it cleared up some major problems I was having with shoulder motion. Thanks!
