First of all I don’t believe Homer stayed away from the movement of the muscles, bones and joints (Kinesiology). I feel what he put in the book about the muscles in the golf swing was what he thought the average golfer would understand. There is no doubt that Homer studied the movement of the body when writing the book. I am not saying the average golfer needs to study the body but the instructor does. He owes it to his students to know what options they have as he watches their body movement. You can look at it from geometry and physics all you want but if that golfer can not move correctly. You best have a backup plan. Knowing the body is a good backup plan. I can show you with the 3-D swing trainer I designed that it is not as easy as clapping your hands. All the golfers I tested on the 3-D swing trainer went off plane on the back swing or had the club face to open or to closed somewhere in the swing before impact. The better golfers could get back on plane and square up the club face. When they trained with the 3-D swing trainer they could practice the plane, clubface and club head action knowing it was perfect every time. They could see it in 3-D. You cannot just assume you are correct with the plane by tracing with PP#3 because you are not most of the time. You might be close but not perfect. Perfect is what I want my students practicing and that is why I designed the 3-D swing trainer so they could practice perfect. You can trace and see the correct plane, club face and club head movement through the swing. Impact fix, standard address, right forearm takeaway, plane shifts and many other alignments all are practiced perfect with the 3-D swing trainer. You will be hearing more about this 3-D swing trainer in about 10 days as I am ready to release it. purehitter View Public Profile Send a private message to purehitter Find all posts by purehitter
