Modern Art Hips: This point is reached when the shaft of the club is parallel to the ground, or nearly so, and the hands are behind the head and above the right ear. At this point of the swing the shoulders have completed a 90° turn and the hips a 45° turn. The right leg, with flexed knee, now supports most of the weight of the body; the left knee tucks in toward the right to accommodate the turning of the hips.
