UPP in almost good enough to play Ohio Remember, Upp, the Turned (or Turning in V.J.'s description) Hip's Downstroke Slide does not begin until after the Backstroke's 'hip bump' (lateral Weight Shift / Hip Motion). And that Downstroke Shift does not start until after the Arms are well into the backstroke. In fact, the 'where' of this Move defines V.J.'s 'secret'. If the lateral Shift occurs near the Top, then nothing new has been added. Among countless others, Bobby Jones, Ernest Jones and Ben Hogan himself have written of the near-top 'Reverse', i.e., Lower Body Leads . . . Upper Body Lags. Body pulls Arms. Arms pull Hands. Hands pull Club. In V.J.'s 'Secret', the Body Pull begins much earlier in the Backstroke -- with the Hands approximately waist high. Also, the 'look' is vastly different when the Head is held Centered (or nearly so) instead of being allowed to Sway -- purposefully or not -- to the right. And therein lies the discussion. __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage! Find all posts by Yoda
