Standard Hip Action vs. Delayed Hip Action

[Yoda]

Right Lynn, zero hip turn automatically produces zero hip action, "the or none at all" is straight out of 10-15-b delayed hip action, which would be incompatible if you are using no hip turn e.g. A ten foot putt

So the "or none at all" that is in the description of 10-15-b DELAYED HIP ACTION could not have been referring to those strokes where no hip turn is necessary because zero hip turn and delayed hip action are incompatible components.

I see what you're saying, Whip, and I agree with your premise as stated. What we're having a hard time with here is that I wasn't talking about the Delayed Downstroke Hip Action. Instead, I was referring to the Zeroed Backstroke Hip Turn! Here's my quote -- I've bolded the word 'Turn' -- from my post to Par71:

The "or none at all" you bolded refers to those Strokes where no Hip Turn -- pre-cleared or otherwise -- is necessary, e.g., a ten-foot putt. :

That is the same differentiation Homer Kelley made when he said "Use this Hip Turn to prevent Overswinging." He was talking about a specific methodology to effect a Backstroke Hip Turn (from Zero to Free) in preparation for its Delayed Action in Start Down.

My simple example was deliberately not about Hip Action. It was about the Zero Turn. I used a ten-foot putt as my example because it so readily demonstrates the "none at all" Hip Turn PRINCIPLE.

Bottom line for readers as we 'move on' from here:

Each of the 24 Components in TGM has its separate identity. The Components coordinate in accordance with a given Stroke Pattern and its listed Variations, but nevertheless they remain independent. It is all too easy to mix things up -- to attach one thing to another as if they were inseparable -- and so inhibit a true and precise understanding.
