Sorry for the following Vapid Post.

Those steps must only shorten, not change (6-B-3-0). Keep ALL Full and Short Stroke alignments and paths identical. Chips and Putts are merely miniaturized – not altered. And each must have its own Total Motion (3-0). Study 2-M-2, 2-N.

"The Motion makes the shot" is one of HK's sayings. When HK claims that "each (shot) must have its own Total Motion", he is saying that each of the 24 components must be dealt with by either using or zeroing out one variation in each component. The word "Total" means a 'complete' "Stroke Pattern". I offer the following quotes to support the definition of "Total"

7-0 GENERAL Basic Stroke Component classifications are based on the fact that there are twenty-four actions in the Golf Stroke that can be properly executed in more than one way, therefore twenty-fore Stroke Components must have groups of Variations for each of these basic functions.

Every Stroke has these twenty-four Basic (constants – samenesses) but few Strokes have the same Variations (variables – differences).

Curriculum Intent:

I believe that the intent of the Curriculum, is to teach each of the three Zones. First learn "Hands", then, when adding the "Arms", it will become clear whether the "Arms" are affecting the proper execution of the Hands. Then add the "Pivot" and it will become clear whether the Pivot is affecting Zone 1 and 2.

Please read the following quotes from the 6th and 7th Editions. (Bold by Daryl)

But Zone #1 can actually host the cause behind Zone #2 aberrations.

. Every Stroke Component should be tracked through all Twelve Sections – independently – to give it its full recognition, application and continuity. And also through the Three Zones (Chapter 9) to define relationships. And study 12-3-0

The Three Zones are a natural division of the action. Their identities must be maintained in teaching, practice and playing. And unless developed in sequence, a very weak “compensated” game is inevitable. Consider Putting. Zero Pivot (10-12-D) IS Body Control (Zone #1). One Accumulator (10-11-A) IS Club Control (Zone #2). Any Hinge Action (10-10) IS Ball Control (Zone #3). And Educated Hands (5-0) ARE exactly as mandatory here as with any other Pattern.

...and in the 7th Edition (Lord forgive me)

9-0: The individual Components in the Three Zones are governed by Stroke Pattern regardless of Zones, which only maintain and coordinate the individuality as well as the interaction of these Components, as prepackaged cargo to assure that malfunction in other Zones stay in their own package and not foist unnoticed Compensations on each other to plague the Machine.
