Feelings vs. Mechanics

One of the problems of a bio-mechanically sound theory of a golf swing, for me, is that every new reduction in "Compensations" unleashes a new set of feelings which are unknowns in terms of effectiveness.

Daryl gave me a suggestion a while back about a drill in which I set my right foot back to "feel" my back shoulder moving Down-Plane, effectively. It felt great and I shot an 83 or something being in a perfectly closed stance. I had no concept of Level Wrists or Swiveling. I just Hit Down on the ball.

So, I'm aware of that feeling. I'm also still in the glow of the Forward Swivel which feels great. I'm also loving being on my left side more as a power amplifier for my Swing (thanks Mr. Trolio). So, my temptation is to combine the right shoulder drive Down-Plane (Elbow Plane) which I know works with everything else, but then I loose the sensation of the Finishing Swivel which just seems so simple and powerful! In short, everything is starting to feel like 4 Barrel Hitting. Sometimes, I see dead Swingers and Hitters and I'm surrounded by Switters! Man, the desire to mix Components might drag everyone to have 10 or 12 Barrels!

Don't even mention how simple and powerful an almost zero shift TSP feels. What if I do just the Elbow Plane? That Hogan Pivot is so far over on my left side, I feel as if I can just fire my elbow straight down tracing the Plane and SMACK! Now if the snow just holds off for awhile, I have more smacking to do!

LBG should start 3 television channels: Look at Swinging, Look at Hitting, and Look at Switting.
