My opinion only Chip!

Compare and contrast. My finish was more like Ted's. Ted has reminded me to be sure to follow the correct sequence of 10-2-B

Yesterday, the entire golf course was standing water. It was very hard to stay down on every shot and take a face full of mud even with lift clean and place being in effect. Early in the round, I started dragging my putts left. Lynn was very good to instruct me about pushing my right shoulder back from my target line.

After 9 holes, I gave up Hitting and and my slight, very slight Impact Fix alignments. I started a different Swinging set-up with a Level Left Wrist and a softer Right Arm on Plane. The ball started to jump again and my putts straightened out.

My understanding of the Slightly Closed Shoulders, and of Moe Norman's much more Pre-Set On- Plane Shoulder, is that an On- Plane Shoulder, or the On-Plane Right Shoulder or Back Shoulder of a golfer is an elegant and beautiful thing.

Pivot moves the back shoulder Up -Plane which is always good, and the Pivot moves the On-Plane, Up-Plane Back Shoulder, Down, Out, and Forward which is beautiful on Balance.

The Hips move in a straight line back and forward. I thought my Feet moved my Hips but Lynn said no, the Feet and Knees stabilize the Head and Tripod. So, if the Shoulders need to be closed to the Target Line, the Hips or rather the Back Hip must be set back from the Target Line!

Moe Norman was a genius! In his very simple way he created a series of Alignments that would allow him to always be "same as the last, same as the last." Right Hip was set back and the Back Shoulder was Up-Plane. The Base Line of the Plane was Traced by an On-Plane Right Forearm. He said he simply rotated his knees back and through which is really an easy mistake to make without a bio-mechanical chart. Moe did not allow himself to do a full Finish Swivel it seems, robbing him of some power. He seemed to delay the Finish Swivel for a very long time. I'm not saying I would recommend that adaptation. Moe was different that way. But he used his Hip! Right Hip fully back and the then fully through. Stable Head and Balance. BOOM.

Homer Kelly was a genius. Lynn Blake is a genius who can help others become brilliant at golf and teach others to be become brilliant, too.
