Rhythm and more Rhythm
 

Mr. Kelley said that had he understood rhythm from the outset, he would have never written the book!

EC

Interesting. Is there a context to that HK statement?

HB

HB,

Sorry for the delay. Mr. Kelley was addressing rhythm on a tape from one of his original masters' gatherings. I don't remember the specific context, but I AM SURE of hearing him say what I referenced before.

Take care,

EC

I suspect Homer meant that had he understood Rhythm from the outset , his golf would have been far better. Giving him little or no reason to undertake his research.

Help Mr. Minnesota Wizard!
 

Hi Kevin. Sportsfans. :salut: I have been working on Hitting and watching Lynn's and Ted's videos. Their finish seems very unusual to me. (I have only worked on swinging with Lynn and we know what a reclamation program I have been.) It seems like the key to a forward swivel in a hitting motion is the flat left wrist maintaining it's shape as it is propelled through the stroke by the pistoning right elbow, The feel of the forward swivel is that of a two-handed forehand in tennis or like the angle of attack is like a sharper "U" or a cross between a "V" and "U."

Does that seem correct? :rolleyes:

That sounds a little steep to me Patrick. Are you trying to feel a really late (snap) release? Remember, YODA's finish is more than just the wrist alignments, remember his goal post drill? Very important feel for the release of the body.

Kevin

Release of the body?
 

Kevin, you are referring to the MacDonald drills of the hip leading the pivot first followed by the right elbow pistoning? Though if the snap would give me extra yards ala Sergio who am I to reject such a boon? :read:

ICT

Nope, arms up trying to look like a goal post and turn to finish...

Remember, the swing happens in the blink of an eye. We can focus on address, top, and finish. Everything from top to finish happens from preparation and intent.

Kevin, I figured out why I was shanking so bad with the Taly. Can you guess why? Now I wish I had'nt given the thing away.

Steering? I'm anxious to here what you've discovered!
