Get lead shoulder over lead pelvis to stop early low point

On a chip-and-run, the instructor diagnoses too much shoulder tilt at address, with the right shoulder sitting too low, as a cause of bottoming out too early (fat/thin contact). The fix is to get the left shoulder much more over the left side of the pelvis at address, so the chest bone feels more in front of the ball.
