I think that's the right idea Patrick. I think folks get confused sometimes and equate RFT with hitting. YODA has shown us how to effectively use RFT with both hitting and swinging, in fact I believe it is one of the most important concepts we learn for getting the club on plane... I think we can learn from Mr. Taly's swing as well...

Now, my post has covered my attempts to "learn and apply TGM" with my disabilities (artificial front hip, 1.75" short left leg) to my once upon a time 21 hcp.

My last search on the Stationary Head helped me shoot my lowest golf score, albeit in a simulator, ever, a + 3 "73." Before that, my best score was in a GAP event, an 83, where I finished second in a pretty small field.

The Stationary Head forces the golfer, imo, to use RFT and a careful selection of either Impact Fix or a thoughtful Address position.

But I have to be honest with myself, a driving average of 176 yards, which I had on the simullator is just stupid. It is an obvious indication that I am not doing something basic. One of my female golf companions on last Friday night, regularly drove the ball 25 yards past me with roll out.

Some of you might think I am a weakling. That would be incorrect. Today, I wrestled a fourth grader and sixth grader to the ground as they threatened to bloody each other. The whole fight took 20 minutes. While I am still sore, I am not weak.

So what am I doing wrong. My head will be stationary but something else must change to allow my golf clubs to be moved more quickly, more powerfully or perhaps both.

Lynn has said in the following video that some alignment, when mastered, will immediately allow your game to go to the next level.

So I'm thinking I do not understand the Finish Swivel, or if I do understand it intellectually, I cannot do it as a part of my golf Swing (since it is a Swingers concept).

So that's my new research project. How do I learn to do a Finish Swivel? Do I keep my left wrist firm or loose? Do I rotate my forearm on purpose? Do I Pivot hard enough to shake my forearm loose? Does keeping my left wrist and right wrist firm force my forearms to rotate?

How does a regular guy "do" a Finish Swivel?

As a preliminary observation, Mr. Williams has a very stiff FLW in his Swing and yet he seems to have a Finish Swivel. Lynn's FLW seems very stiff but his forearm seems somehow, supple. Is that what Delivery Line Roll Prep? Are we firming up our FLW at the Transition at the Top to create LAG that will force the forearm to Finish Swivel? Hmmm.

One more fine LBG video will help.

Maybe I am missing the "pow" in Power! If I diligently keep my left wrist firm and flat, making a left fist even as I write, there seems to be weight and heaviness that my left forearm flips over by itself when I straighten my left arm. Is that the LAG that must be left at the Top while the Pivot reverses?


More to come!
