These videos are outstanding
 
It is remarkable to hear the thoughts and ideas from somebody who has so much intimate knowledge of the golf swing.

When he talks about how lifting his arm automatically cocks the left wrist, and lowering the arm automatically uncocks it....I can see that the motion of his arm as it is coming down is momentum build up from gravity. He also goes to the top and shows this same motion. I see how he stops the club before he passes the right leg....like the clubhead really is a weight.

So I was thinking about that motion in my garage today and I saw a hammer. I grabbed it with my right hand, raised it with my forearm, then lowered it with my forearm. As the hammer was coming down I felt the heavy head really gain momentum and pull my whole arm. I stop it when my arm straightens out and it gives me the same feel that I see in the motion that he makes.

Is this true throw out action ?

KnightT,

During my lesson with Tomasello one of the things we talked about was researching components...as we went through component number 1 and he had me read through section 7-1 Tommy was in total agreement with the statement..."For the Swinger, Centrifugal Force Uncocks BOTH the Left Wrist and the Right Elbow per 7-19 and 7-20." Even though we're bending and straightening the right elbow per 7-3 and with the Magic of the Right Forearm...ultimately what’s uncocking the left wrist and right elbow at release is centrifugal force or throw out action.
