Knudson practiced with a cigarette or a golf pencil in his mouth for the same reason. A drill he used with students who needed to stay more stationary or alternatively for students he wanted to just plane shut up. Hard to talk with a pencil in your mouth.

U shouldn't let the head bob or sway but if u really wanna get precise also don't let it turn tilt or swivel either the weight of the head and the picture of the ball moving around during the swing is hazardous
Saturday, 46 and 44 could not buy a chip or a putt and forgot to assemble my flying wedges for the first eight holes... At one point I was driving my right knee and manufacturing pull slices on every hole-very depressing!
Reviewed Lynn's videos last night and re-discovered the level left wrist for putting, chipping, carry back and flossing
On Sunday, 43, 39, 40 on the three 9's we have at my course
New Pattern:
Paddle Wheel
Square to open stance
Stationary head
Impact Fix with Level left wrist
Impact Waggle-monitor club-face for needed shot shape add EA (lock out left elbow?)
Carry Back with RFT
Drive Right shoulder at the ball / effect is to trace the base line of the plane with PP # 3 with vigor or use Angle of Approach
I really have started to drive cross line into the ball's inner quadrant then the ground!
The level left wrists in putting and putt-chipping had me close to the hole often. I do have to really take dead aim at the flag and be unafraid to hit over trouble with an extra iron and let my short game handle the clean-up. Level left wrist makes every shot possible! And in the sand I need to remember my "v's" to thump that sand.
I also need to close my club face as early as my heavy pitching wedge!

I guess it is technically a "pull-draw" or an educated "snap hook."
Since I have fallen in love with my Pivot however, it is a simple Horizontal Hinge and Swing. Full Pivot, well behind the ball, correct ball position, Impact Waggle so I can preview the club face roll. Very satisfying. Angle Hinge Paddle Wheel for a fade or very open, 20-30 degrees club face, for a Swing.
I can't look at the video until I'm home tonight but thanks in advance.

The arc of approach and angle of approach are visual equivalents to the plane line for the swinger. the club will rotate away from the ball and into the ball creating a blurred clubhead path-arc whereas a hitter sees the club move in a straight line up and down the angle of approach no arc.
What is the difference between Arc and Angle of Approach? Thanks.
Thats one heck of a first question. Very few people could answer this fully and it would take them a lot of time to explain.
The short answer is that most hitters and all swingers employ the arc .....the curved club head visual blur associated with on plane club shaft travel . Sorta like the putting arc deal. The shaft rides the plane , the head rides an arc at the same time. Weird as that sounds.
....... only the swinger however uses the curved arc of approach te hitter should have no arc in his blur only a straight line
I know this is a common line of thinking but Homer himself said otherwise in the audio tapes.
To confuse matters even further , when asked if Swingers could use the Angle of Attack Procedure Homer said "NO!.... well yes....... but it would take a lot of compensations ".
In regard to whether a Hitter can use the Arc the answer is a very firm yes. This would be a hitter who planes his shaft on any of the common planes through impact. Regardless in which direction the plane line points: open, closed , square , so long as his shaft rides a common plane through the ball the eyes from their parallax point of view will see a curved club head blur. A useful visual equivalent to on plane club shaft and head travel and probably the inspiration for V.J.'s putting arc , maybe. I dunno but the geometry is similar.
Hey Whip do those white club heads make the visual equivalents , the club head blurs even more noticeable ? Never thought about that one , me being a Titleist driver , 3 wood player.
