For sure, this thread has contained some forks in the road. But the very fact that a number of thoughtful posts have encouraged readers to at least think about a Pivot Center -- whether the Head or 'between the shoulders' -- in my opinion takes it out of the 'dumb' category.

And some of the illustrations have broken new ground. For example, when was the last time you saw the way the spine really worked in the Backstroke? Or saw a Ben Hogan swing sequence from Power Golf sized and superimposed for the very first time? All with graphic representation of the Pivot Swing Center.

Finally, students of The Golfing Machine® who have read this thread now know unequivocably where Homer Kelley stood on this most important subject. That in itself can be an invaluable touchstone on the rather insecure road known as Golf.

We need to be patient. We're building skyscrapers here, one brick at a time. Sometimes the process gets a bit messy, but the end result makes it all worthwhile.

My thanks to Brian for starting this thread and to all who have contributed.
