[O.B.Left]

If memory serves me, in Lynn's first telephone conversation with Homer Kelley he inquired about the relative merits of a straightening left leg vs a saggy left knee.

Homer, not being one to recommend a particular way, wouldnt give him a straight answer. He kept saying things like "well thats up to you", "if you want a more level hip turn through the ball then dont straighten it up". Im paraphrasing here.

Me, Im thinking that there should be no active knee action, motion. So no leg or knee drive taking the weight outside the left foot. Everything below the waist should be a Hip Motion or the result of it. With the possible exception being the feet lifting and lowering.

Knudson came to the conclusion that Hogans perfectly flat balanced left foot at Finish was his greatest asset. And so he began a quest that took him 18 months to finally attain a flat left foot at Finish. In the end, the solution he said was simple. The left foot must be set outside the left shoulder at Address. Hogan as you will remember had a pretty wide stance too and Knudson believed that was the reason. With the left foot directly below the left shoulder you cant get left without rolling it over. Knudson had a bunch of practical insights like this in regard to the pivot.

Sorry Im rambling again. Id guess level ish hips on backswing , slant on through swing, given right anchor and axis tilt. I dunno. Final answer. Survey says.......
