Winter Wonder
 

Congrats, Air. Already far better scoring than last year!

:salut:

Thx. For the first time in 3 (/20) years I hope to make better than bogey on average on the longer courses as well in the weeks to come. :golf:

I didnt know that Yoda had at one point considered posting "clips" from his audio tapes. That would have lead to some very interesting discussions, Id imagine.

Homer Kelley And The Lagging Clubhead Takeaway
 

In my opinion , Mr Blake has reduced his unique Hitting vs Swinging patterns down to the conscious employment of the appropriate Release Trigger , Right Arm vs (Left) Wrist Throw.......the rest is automatic. He's built in some "sameness" into his two patterns as well, I believe, stopping at Top for instance. I say this because Ive seen him walk a line of balls, striking balls in rapid fire Melhornian fashion while alternating Hitting and Swinging. Never pausing between balls. Brush, hit , brush , swing, etc Its not that hard to do actually.

That said , I think most guys can hit and swing during the same round.....assuming they know how to differentiate the two procedures properly, apply thrust accordingly. Speaking of which they say Tiger cant Hit his stinger anymore.....why is that?

Good stuff OB! I think I have been a little confused as to the separation of swinging and hitting. I thought I was a hitter, but am finding more success and "pop" with swinging while applying the right forearm magic. I had relegated the right forearm control to hitting, and that doesn't jive with Lynn's teaching. So much to learn, have to figure out a way to get to Cuscowilla. Patrick is going to totally change the way he goes about learning G.O.L.F. this week!

Air and Yoda At Cuscowilla
 

Here's a little ditty Air and I did near the end of his visit to Cuscowilla last March. Fun!

Nice
 

Thank you. It sums up "nicely" what my problems were and what to train on. I was surprised to see that it lasted as long as 19.23 I would have guessed between 5 and 10 minutes. Time goes fast in good company.. (Almost your 9000th post as well).

Inside-Out Stroke Versus Inside-Out Impact
 

A Tale Of Two Thrusts
 

The Foundation
 

Great video gentlemen. I learned a lot about teaching from it. Thank you both very much for sharing the experience. There was a swing either 7:08 or 7:28, I have a terrible memory, where I almost jumped off my chair. You could feel the compression!!! Great work AIR!!!

Thanks. Good to hear. I've always been a bit confused about this compression business.
:golf:

You're doing such a good job of working on it in that video Air , you cant be too confused about it!

For more info on compression see Chapter 2 , the diagrams of 2-C and contrast Three Dimensional Impact ( with Horizontal Hinging) with the three forms of Steering. I suspect that like most people your earlier outside /inside stroke and associated compression loss was a reflection of one of golf's common "seems as if's" ......(it should work but it doesnt) ....Steering namely.

The linear logic of the pool shot with its inline pool cue does not translate to golf given the golf club's: lie angle (Inclined Plane of motion) , hooked face (Hinge Action) and its resulting circular (Angular) Motion. Golf as Homer noted being a 'Hinge Action of an Angular Motion on an Inclined Plane". In fact the more linear you get it ........the more you produce what Homer termed "the cut shot" see diagram 2-C something or other (sorry dont have my book with me). Then compare that diagram to Steering again.

I'll have to study this some more. The involuntary cut shot was earlier something I produced all the time - except when I pulled it instead.

7-3 Delayed Release -- Hitters Vs. Swingers
 

Indeed and the corollary is true as well. If you watch the Premium video with Brian Gay you'll see him Starting Up from Fix , with Address Hands while Lynn notes that there can still be a little Lag and Drag to the Startup. A little bit of a Lagging Takeaway from Fix, not pure Carry Back motion.

Like in all things Homer, there are many shades of grey. You've got options if you dont like Black or White.
