Red Dots AND HORIZONTAL HINGES W/LAYBACK ARE FOREVER!

This was discovered by Homer Kelley. The Right Forearm Angle of Approach. Phil has re-named it the "Hinge and Hold". Geek? He then, obviously traces the Angle of Approach at Impact to Finish.

Watch the red dots.

So, using the Right Forearm Angle of Approach, and, adding Layback to the Horizontal Hinge by Tracing the Clubhead Angle of Approach (thus, an Angled Hinge Action) has helped Phil make a few more bucks.

As he says: "There is only one way to chip", ya Phil, but it's called the Right Forearm Angle of Approach and "Hinge Action". Don't listen to his "Hands Acceleration" Tip because it will eventually lead to Chipping "YIPS". Drag the Clubhead. The Pulley ensures clubhead acceleration.

Keep the Right Wrist Bent (and Level) through Impact.

All is well on the non-Sandy effected Eastern Front! I got to the range today after working to 7pm each night for two glorious hours of 46 degree practice!

Place my dots on my hands, correctly assembled my short thumb, snuff box to the right of center of the shaft laid the # 3 PP dead aft of the shaft so that the # 3 PP and left thumb are aft of the shaft. RFT with layback for chips for a good 30 minutes and the short chips jumped off the face higher and further than before!

Acquired Motion- Right Forearm at 90 degrees to the Face of the Plan and pretended I was Zach Johnson sliding down the Plastic Plane! Even in the colder weather the 8 irons were flying straight and dropping between 140 and 145. My 9.5 degree Adams Redline Driver sailed well past the 200 yard marker AND IT WAS STILL CLIMBING OUT OF SIGHT!

The shots seem to keep climbing and then just drop from the sky. Here's a question though. When my RFT is at my shoulder and laid back, full Extensor Action, it seems I have a choice. When I leave my Right Forearm Flying Wedge at my shoulder (proper ball position and width) and Pivot like I'm hitting the ball with my shoulder, I get a very high Horizontal Hinge with a slight 10 yard draw and the ball seems to have two acceleration phases which is way cool! When I decide to leave my right arm stretched all the way straight behind me, and simply let the left vertical wrist un-cock down the face of the plane I get a very straight ball or a fade depending on my ball position and width of stance.


Both shots demand that I watch Impact till the ball is away and man does that ball explode! Are both Swings? Both have Pivots and man, there seems to be no end to the accuracy and almost no end to the power!

Thanks Daryl, very cool!
