Straight Line delivery path vs Circle Delivery Path
Hello again Jeff. I am quoting a post by EdZ:

If you imagine the path of your hands traveling in your
motion as a wheel (7-23), the 'widest possible' path of
the hands would be a circle around your center of
balance.

In a straight line delivery, your hands go from the 'edge
of the rim' at the top, directly in a straight line INSIDE
the circle toward your aiming point/both arms straight
and at both straight they are again 'touching the
wheel rim'. A 'feel' of 'narrow to wide" (top to both arms
full extended). Adelayed release/max trigger delay and
a more powerful (but tougher to time) motion.

In a circle delivery path, your hands effectively 'attempt'
to STAY on the rim all the way 'around the circle'. A very
'wide' feel in which you release fully and smoothly from
the top - very nearly throw away. A very consistent, but
much less powerful motion, much simple to judge distance.

You post on pulley wheels seems to focus on the circle or angled
line delivery path rather than the straight line delivery path.
I am looking at the pictures of Diane on pgs 203-205 of the yellow
book.

Some where, I think that I remember Yoda saying to set the
#3 pressure point at the top and take it straight to the ball.

Are we missing that their are three possible TYPES of paths
the hands can take toward impact.
