Daryl: I have read this: Homer said it's pivot torque that releases the club for Swinger's and torque applied to the lever assemblies that does it for Hitters. It's hinge action...zone 3!the hands that squares the club or otherwise manipulates it differently through impact.


In case you want to the read the whole post this is taken from: http://jeffygolf.com/showthread.php?...s-stuff-happen

Additional note: My source says: "my apology, it seems the word "torque" doesn't appear in TGM. This seems odd to me as it's my understanding torque is necessary to initiate a circular motion. What I was referring to is what he calls Pivot Thrust, not pivot torque, but I can't see how you can have thrust without torque in a rotating system. Help anyone? Maybe torque initiates the pivot's work but then the motion continues on its own as in a flywheel. I can see that for Swingers. With hitters the right arm thrust initiates the lever assembly's rotating motion, which, again, continues with no torque added. Maybe this is what is meant by a "freewheeling release.""
