This Mobility Test Explains Your Swing #golfswing #golftips

Me and My Golf demonstrates a simple 90/90 mobility test performed from a standard 5-iron setup posture to evaluate trail arm external rotation. The video explains how physical limitations in the shoulder often cause compensations like standing up in the backswing, leading to inconsistent contact. Golfers learn to match their backswing length to their actual physical flexibility for better ball striking.

• Assume your standard 5-iron address posture to begin the mobility self-test.
• Lift and externally rotate your trail arm to see if it can align parallel to your spine angle.
• Lacking trail arm mobility often forces compensation like standing up or early extension during the backswing.
• Adjust your backswing length to your body's true range of motion to maintain consistent ball striking.
