Ask a Pro how he swings the Club and you'll get 10 different answers........from the same Pro.

The Backstroke and Downstroke are very different. I don't doubt that the Pendulum Marching Drill is useful for something but bear in mind that the Impact Alignment, by necessity of the Pendulum is a Swivel.

Swiveling and Hinging are Apples and Oranges. It took me forever to learn the difference. My first Golf Instructor should be in jail. I've searched for a very long time in books, the internet and Golf DVDs and I'm convinced that none of the instructors know the difference (present company excluded). And yet, every Pro I watch, and in Slow Motion, HINGE through the Impact Interval. Good Ball Strikers don't use the Pendulum when they swing a Club but they do apply the geometry while Putting.

I helped Innercityteacher understand the difference between Swiveling and the Right Forearm Angle of Approach. If he would comment on the difference, it would help if he noted if he ever heard or learned of this before and when he reviews the swings of Good Ball Strikers if he sees them Swiveling or Hinging.

Homer Kelley discovered this 50 years ago and writes in great length about it. I'm very SHOCKED, Shocked and more shocked that it isn't standard Golf instruction. If you don't learn it here at LBG.com you'll never learn it. How can anyone call themselves a Golf Instructor without understanding these simple Alignments. I'm completely Shocked. I need a Drink.

I can feel the difference now, between Swiveling and Hinging! It does really feel different. As a result of the new Right Forearm Angle of Approach awareness, I became very aware of the correct Start-up Swivel, the correct way to carry-back for a Hitter, the correct parallel Hip Bump, Acquired Motion for both Hitters and Swingers, the meaning of the "Wheel Rim" for Swingers, the reason for the right forearm being 90 degrees to the Plane, various correct delivery paths, Hand Acceleration and some ideas around "snapping the whip."

I also understand how not to get stuck and how to hit an 8 degree driver with a high, penetrating ball flight, ON PURPOSE!

Now, if I can just get a 50 degree day or an indoor range!
