[O.B.Left]

Does the left hip have to slide forward over the left foot before turning out of the way? Does it feel like the weight slides to your toes on the left foot and then to the heel as you rotate your left hip back and is that what is meant by swinging from the ground.
thanks

You've really hit on an interesting thing here. Somebody wake Bucket up, we'll be talking goat humping here.

If you Slide, 10-14-B (but please dont look at the photos, they've really got to go) parallel to the Angle Of Approach as opposed to parallel to the Arc of Approach your weight will go out over your left toes. (If you're useing the Arc and Slide parallel to it , then your weigth will be less on your toes)

Now if you leave your weight on the toes and then Turn on top of that , you have moved your center of gravity closer to the ball! Another form of the Goat Hump sort of, which can also move the left shoulder, closer to the ball giving you some Radius issues.

So you gotta get your weight off your toes while your turning to keep your "ass on the glass".

Somethin Ted told me about.

"Swinging from the feet" or ground is kinda something different, see 6-M-1 The Downswing Sequence.
