The golf swing is mainly a rotation around a fixed axis (your spine) wherein you want to keep the angle formed between your hips and spine. Your shoulders rotate 90 degrees to that angle, your hips rotate to that angle.

this is good book to read, I wasn't a fan of the writing style but it does build on that feel thing I mentioned earlier.
