Now there's an AhHah moment. The flatter shoulder turn would thereby promote hooking the ball? I have noticed, several instructors stating that lowering the right shoulder is necessary to tilt the hips improving the pivot. I think they are promoting a vertical drop of the right shoulder before the pivot rather than right shoulder travel down a plane to the ball. This is a bit confusing.
