Although this is only one picture of him taking one shot.....and also only one player throughout a mass history of great players....if you're right tho it would prove that it CAN work for people.....I know that already tho....it wouldn't be a problem with me.

...

To me, I think your spine (the one beside Snead is you right Mathew?) is more to the right than where you've drawn it tho...you can see the indent in your back......no?

Adam Scott....I dunno.....isn't that pic the one that's edited from the one where he was hitting on an upslope?

Regardless, to me, his head is slightly to the right of the red line (given, only a small amount...to me)...and as for his spine....I dunno lots about spines....but that doesn't look right to me. (where you've drawn it) Anyway tho I'm no expert on spines and this picture may not be a good one to analyze anyway.

And....regardless of all THAT....I don't think Scott is a guy who keeps his head Stationary anyway (and I don't think keeps it in the center of his feet either)....

Maybe if we found pics of him with a short iron it would show more of a "tripod".....maybe....
Sigh...

Anyone got a wall I could bang my head against....

Yes that is where exactly where Sneads spine is.

Yes that is precisely where my spine is.



I don't think you can deny it birdie - that is where the spine goes.

Your definition of a reverse pivot is a spine tilting away from the target. Your assumption was that concentrating on a stationary head causes a reverse pivot. I said that the reverse pivot is a fallacious term because NOTHING is going in reverse.

So basically what your saying is that Adam Scott, Jack Nicklaus, Ben Hogan, Sam Snead, Moe Norman, Harry Vardon, Bobby Jones and pretty much every great player in history has a 'reverse pivot'. Ok .....
