The Not-So-Great Debate

This thread was not started as a debate. It was started to illustrate a fundamental truth: the Pivot needs some fixed point acting as a Swing Center. I stated that position clearly in my post #10, well before Brian made any appearance in the thread. That post read:

"Actually, Homer is saying that something at the upper end of the Pivot -- not necessarily the Head -- must remain Stationary to stabilize the motion. He recommended the Head as the Pivot Center because you can tell when it moves (you can see more 'under' the Ball). However, you can alternatively choose to keep the top of the spine -- the point 'between the shoulders' -- stationary. Either way, there is no Sway. In both cases, there is a Centered Pivot Motion. It is all a matter of what the player monitors."

What has Brian said that runs counter to that thesis? Nothing. In fact, he has been in complete agreement. To have a 'debate' there must be an opposing argument. Here we have none. Hence, ipso facto, no debate.

What we do have is one man's attempt to establish who is 'best.' To differentiate and 'brand' -- his word -- himself as Golf's 'Mr. Fix-It' versus Lynn and Ted as self-constrained 'Homer's Own.'

Works for me.
