Justin has a nice set up with an upright posture with the shoulders parallel to the target line. His feet are shoulder-width apart. Thomas has a strong takeaway and fully rotates to the right side, with a huge shoulder turn.  He shifts his whole weight onto the right side enabling him to generate power in his downswing.

Now on to his downswing, this is the part where he generates his power from and hits it miles. The downswing starts with transferring the weight onto the left side. The thing to notice is his belt buckle. How he rotates the belt buckle through the ball and pushes hard up through the ground with his feet and clearing his left side.
