Trail Arm Getting Stuck Behind Your Body? This Setup Tweak Fixes It Instantly! Students come through AMG with the trail arm rotated too internally at setup... the arm shark fin pointing too much toward the target. When that happens, the trail arm gets stuck behind the body early and triggers the feedback click. The fix is simple: rotate the trail arm or shoulder slightly more externally so the fin points more toward the golf ball. That small external rotation gives you the ability to rotate the arm properly in the backswing, keeps the arms in front of the body, puts the swing on a better plane, and eliminates the click at the top. One setup adjustment... better shots.
