No need to apologise for butting in, in fact I am the one who threadjacked this in the first place!
Why do you think how far the hips travels is more important than speed? Not that I necessarily agree or disagree, just wondering where that comes from. Also, what role (if any) do you think that pivot braking plays in all of this? It seems to me, that to maximize the effectiveness of the pivot, the hips have to move a certain distance and a certain speed, with maximum speed being attained at a certain point....and with the hips slowing down and transferring their momentum to the shoulders at a certain rate and at a certain point...agree or disagree?

Pivot Lag. As soon as the Hips stop moving forward or slow, the Shoulders slow then Arms, Hands and Clubhead. #3 PP should have strong Pressure at least until Both Arms Straight. Driven by the Pivot.
What good is going fast if you can’t sustain the Lag. Besides, people have different speeds. People with fast Hips won’t hit the ball any farther unless they can move that Right Hip a long Way Through Impact.
“ The greatest hazard this Component faces if the belief that “Effort” is “Power.” No amount of effort will produce more than a player’s maximum turning speed. Regardless of effort you simply cannot push anything faster than you can run. Mechanical Advantage (1-H) must be utilized making Clubhead acceleration on “Overtaking” process (2-P, 6-M-1). However, tremendous energy can be consumed in trying to offset conflicting alignments, without ever achieving the player’s full speed potential. Study 5-0 in this connection.”
Please keep in mind that Most Golfers (maybe 95%) do not move their Right Hip Far enough. You though, may have more than adequate Right Hip Travel. But, if you find yourself moving the ball back in your stance for Irons, then you probably don’t either and you simply have not learned to Pivot in a way that allows for one Ball Position. If you play the Ball back in your stance, then it’s because your Hands simply are not getting to the ball if played just behind Low Point. That’s a Pivot Problem.
First learn to Pivot, then learn to go faster, IF your Body can Handle it. Mine can't!!! I'm 6 feet tall, 200 pounds, and My Pivot is too powerful for my arms and hands to handle. I'm very Strong but my arms simply cannot handle the Pressure that my Pivot can put on them. My Hands know, and they Tell me to take it down a notch. Honestly, during my downswing, my Hands are Telling my Pivot to cool it. |
