You can also set up with a golf bag, small chair or something against your butt and keep it there during an acquired motion swing. The extreme is getting your weight to the heels and rotating from there. Chances are good you will experience a later release by "sitting on the chair" and pivoting your swing around the chair. The chair only moves along the base of the plane line.

Never, ever round the back. Especially when twisting.

Hey Bagger

I did some work on Drew's intention remedy today and it does seem to help. It also relates to EdZ's response too Im thinking in that having the intention to hit all the way down to Both Arms Straight requires some right arm left at impact and the only way to get the bent right arm down there is via the right shoulder. If you get your right shoulder down that low and on plane then you must have Tilted your Axis etc etc etc. Its a sort of backwards, re engineering of things that makes me thinks DG is going to show up at any second saying...... "I keep telling you guys..... "

Its quite interesting to back up against a wall or something and try to swing. In the absence of Hula Hula ..........the head wants to move. So the chair or the wall or a glass door is great as long as you can slide around some. VJ Trolio style. Any contraption or perception of the rear end as being centered makes it a center and something else has to move normally with implications to the left shoulder, low point.

Still searching , still wondering what the heck my rear end is up to, but the intenion, 1-L-15, lots of right arm, the Right Shoulder Throw etc is part of the solution at the very least. The nice thing about these TGM tips is none of 'em are bad for you. Sort of like Omega 3 and Vitamin E or something.

That being said, if this thing dont get better Im going to put some shards of glass in the toes and balls area of my socks.

And sometimes its so confusing its kinda like this...

//<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/tOVPGlTBknI&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/tOVPGlTBknI&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

But somehow it all combines...together...

Hope everyone didn't take my video interlude wrong. I thought it mirrored how confusing TGM terminology and interpretation can be. I thought it was pretty funny and I'm a sucker for Albert Brooks, Blake Edwards and Mel Brooks movies.

Gotta look for that one on dvd. Mel Brooks always gets me laughing.

But are you comparing " my hump" to horse meat, Bagger?

:laughing9 :naughty: :salut:

Kevin

Thanks Kev

Most edifying and far from a mere run of the mill Standard Hip Action there Id say.

Going to the dome tonight to try to keep my junk inside my trunk and avoid that Hump, that Hump, that Hump, that Hump.

If you send the right shoulder down plane, the hips can't really fire forward.

Alternately, if you bring the right shoulder out/over plane, the hips have to come forward to balance the motion.

Edz is on to something here! :salut: :laughing9 You can only go two ways down or forward. Of course down on the inclined plane includes out. Hackers try to go forwards, as well as good players that hack at times!:crybaby: Watch your legs, if they are wooden there was not enough down, at your right elbow is spent, or almost spent. Check out Byron Nelson...down...down!

Okie next time I go to the Dome Im gonna try to throw or drop those Arms down and see what happens. Ill call you from the hospital if its bad news. The Vectors 2-N-1, eh? Nice.

P.S. I like your left side, what the heck are you admiring saggy knees for? Ill sell you mine if you want. Trade ya.

Hey BerntR

Id say that neither Hogan nor Snead had any thrusting of the Hips towards the plane line.
http://www.lynnblakegolf.com/forum/a...d=126742549 2

Not towards the plane line no. But towards wherever their hips are pointing. They all squeeze their buttocs and bring their "instrument" :D eh... tailbone forward, so to speak. Since their hips are more turned, the goat humping as you call it will be more on the right side than the left. It's not goat humping anymore but compression of the right side.

Kelvin Miyahira has described this move in his analysis of Jamie Sadlowski amongst others. It is an essensial part of a powerful stroke. It is probably a lot less effective when it's combined with a hip stall, but it is probably better still than posing like a duck through impact.

Hump and turn, and you're pretty close to where the good guys are at impact.
