That's the cause of your confusion. Ok I think we agree on that. Namely, Im confused by your interpretation of Homer's Magic of the Right Forearm given your non bending right elbow, rigid power package theory. Per 7-3. "Furthermore, in compliance with 6-B-3-0-1, Bending and Straightening the Right Elbow will RAISE AND LOWER the Left Arm and/or COCK AND UNCOCK the Left Wrist without Bending, Flattening or Cocking the Right Wrist. Practice this first at Impact Fix. So, Right Elbow Action either powers and or controls all three elements of Three Dimensional Impact (6-C-0) per 1-L-9. All this you will come to know as THE MAGIC OF THE RIGHT FOREARM." Caps by Homer. And lots of right elbow action/bending by Homer too. No mention of raising your hands from the shoulder sockets with a fixed bend at the elbow. Quote: O.B. Question for you. It's Not a Trick Question. When does the Right Arm Begin to Straighten (after the Backstroke)? A: Right from the Top (correct if you intentionally use a Right Arm Throw or Hand Throw) B: At Some Point during the Downstroke C: At Release Answer C: Yes that's correct. Yes C of course, but Id also add that the right elbow straightens when the left arm moves away from the chest, #4 angle. Or for the Hitters out there , when #1 (ah hem, the right elbow) is actively straightened. We're talking about Release here. It could happen from the Top, a 10-24-A , Full Sweep Release (normally done by good golfers for specialty shots around the green say, or hackers the world over who lack an On Plane shoulder turn in Dowstroke, everywhere and anywhere on the golf course). In any event it is a right shoulder and right elbow deal. Hogan took his right shoulder way down plane in Downstroke, hence his late Release, he having tons of bent right elbow left for the ball. Palmer's right shoulder stayed back, giving him something to thrust against, like a launch pad as he actively extended his right arm at the elbow. etc etc . To reverse engineer this, to delay your release take your fully bent right arm down the Inclined Plane with your Right Shoulder. (That is the maximum degree of bend achieved at Top or for the Float Loaders out there, Startdown. Yes Float Loading necessitates some more right elbow bending in Startdown to further cock the left wrist.) To do this in an On Plane fashion necessitates the Right Shoulder being on the Inclined Plane in Startdown. If it isnt on the Inclined plane the Right Shoulder will take your Power Package outside the Inclined Plane, an over the top move requiring an inside move to make contact with the ball. Outside to Inside. Lets have a steak and discuss all of this sometime. Alberta beef, cooked over 1000 year old B.C. soft wood lumber..........you aint buying it so we're burning it at the Morton's up here. Mike Weir cab sauve? Leafs playing the Hawks on TV. Beauty eh? Try to loosen up your right elbow though, if not for grabbing your wallet then at least for the golf course. Are you really telling me your elbow doesnt bend any after Startup?
