I have always admired Yoda's takeaway and dearly want to crack its code. He has said he personally admired and cracked Billy Caspers takeaway, so I mention this in the highest form of flattery manner.
In the very, very good Brian Gay premium video, Yoda talks about Extensor Action takeaway. In which the #3 pressure point (as opposed to #1) takes the flat right/bend left wrist of adjusted address to a bent right/flat left impact hands condition, with the flying wedges established. This is part of the lagging takeaway procedure normally associated with a swingers motion.
He uses his #3 to sort of snap the hands into their impact condition with the clubhead making its way back ,up and in while the shoulders and left hand stay relatively still. This is in stark contrast to the push away of the hands by the rocking shoulders as in the old "rock the triangle" type deal.
My question is this. Is that solely an extensor action on display there or is there a little fanning and bending of the right arm and elbow too? Didnt I read that extensor action shouldnt take the club away? Im thinking there must be some fanning and bending too, but not sure.
What ever it is its beautiful. Makes we want to go back to swinging.
