Adams Scott does point #3. Practically looks down his cheek bones. Maybe he needs more elsquatto! Bucket, Tiger is always presented as the paragon of posture. Do you think the straight neck is more form than function?

Where are his eyes at impact though? Id bet not looking down his cheek bones. I think Homer would want your eye line at impact previewed in fix too, no? So I vote for Form or misguided function maybe.

And agreed its nice have Bucket back posting, he is an expert on this subject. Why just the other day Daryl was saying Bucket new squat. He did, I heard him. Daryl is so kind sometimes.

So Bucket, what are the implications to the radius, bobbing etc when you squat. Do you have to unsquat prior to impact?

Okie,

Will you take that wooden pot stirring spoon away from O.B.?

woah!

I'm getting deja vu all over again!

This is what caused Daryl's 'meltdown' on Lag Erickson's site!

When is a stationary head not stationary!

lol!

Dudes I fear that maybe my humourisms might be taken the wrong way. I do honestly value Buckets ground force knowledge and my question is an earnest one.

Daryl you know squat too, maybe you could add something here?

Squat is a Vertical Downward Force. It takes the Hands from a Steeper Plane to an Elbow Plane; Always.

It lowers the Head. What goes up must go down, then Up again.

The Squat is a Position, destination. The Sit-down is an Alignment and it's not a destination.

The Squat is timed with the Arm Drop to the Elbow Plane. The Squatter, Squats to Pull the Hands to the Elbow Plane, and waits for the Elbow position to get to release. Then the Squatter uses his legs to thrust and throw his right forearm into the Impact Zone. I like it best when it's followed by flinging the clubhead from the wrist through Impact. The #3 pressure point monitors and coordinates the procedure, not the plane line. It reminds me of a two handed forearm smash in Tennis.

Thanks for the head-squat answers
 
O.B., Daryl, Bucket and Okie;
thanks for sharing your opinions so quickly! Good stuff.
As to a swing center, I guess the squatter can still maintain a still head in two dimensions.

I think this site is the single greatest forum on golf. My mailbox has been filling up with commercial golf magazine subscription offers and I couldn't care less.

TGM's Stationary Head
 
Homer Kelley viewed the Stationary Head as a geometric ideal, not as a mechanical absolute.

He recognized our humanity.

Hence, his advice:

"Just keep it as still as you can."

Who can see? Compare the upper spines and who gots the bobbing for apples faces . . . being able to see is a pretty big deal.
