[O.B.Left]

Lots of three's , eh Bear? Three types of Lag , three Zones, three Stages to 12-5 , three sides to the triangle, three Hinge Actions, etc etc. Somewhere along the way the system "ultimates in its own simplification". The Triad. The three sets of three.

Of note is that Impact is not a Station (Address, Top and Finish) which is important to recognize when beginning 12-5.

From 12-5-0 BASIC REQUIREMENTS "Use a slow, smooth motion up-and-back, down-and-out and up-and-in the same distance in both directions and as continuosly as possible.

Make no adjustment during the Stroke, for-or because of -Impact , NEVER EVER. That is "Hacking at the Ball" and produces only "Hackers." ......."

Which to my mind relates to Steering. Not to take things in a theoretical circle......sorry. Darn crazy book's made me crazy too.
