Translating Hogan into Norman into TGM.

As the temperature dropped, my enthusiasm for punching got smaller. A friend, Anthony, who has looked at Hogan for years, and our website, said hello. He started asking some questions and wondered why my right hand was so stiff and why my right arm looked so short going through the shot. I showed him my wedges and he pointed out that the forward lean of the shaft is not so drastic and eventually gets released (Impact Fix and Forward Swivel).

I was really proud to show him my Frozen Bent Right Wrist. He said suggested I loosen it by about 50%. And I resisted. I said I have to keep my FBRW to both arms straight! At all costs!!!!!

Then Anthony started talking about supination (he is a "Five Lesson" guy), and he made a perfect Finishing Swivel. We have talked about Moe Norman a lot. "Vertical drop-horizontal hinge." I loosened my FBRW (but you'll still have to pry my guns out of my cold dead hands!!!!). We talked about a few other things. We always do.

I stopped punching. RFT and slight EA. With a slightly frozen BRW and a strong Pivot, I pulled down to the ball way back in my stance. Anthony showed me this. And my 7 iron went straight and did some mountain climbing past the 150 yard marker I lost sight of it near the hill which is about 160. The 5 and 6 irons went further. So then I took my driver. Vertical drop/horizontal pull (shoulder raise does it all) . Anthony said "Look at your hand position. Now Three right hands!" ( # 3 PP drive/push). Sweet. let's see if it's repeatable.!


Ideas?
