Concentrating on Geometric Orientated Linear Force
 

So, it is with great relish that I have been watching Ted Fort's Address video with Lynn where they discuss the hitter's s l o w bump to the front or left to get the right arm closer to the ball before unleashing the bent right wrist.

I feel as if I am slowly moving closer to the chaotic ignorance of my student culture here before unleashing my BRW of knowledge and civilization!

Man, Patrick, what kind of frontier are you on? This is so sad to read.
Worse, I don't understand how the admin. and police don't do something about the ceiling traffic.
Be safe.

Hey Patrick! Thanks for sharing your story, its great to see you back here.

A new type of change?
 

Thanks guys. You will recall that even the mighty Soviet Communist system had to fail in the contest with a democratic capitalist system where personal responsibility is a tried and true success for the majority of people.

I think Mayor Nutter is a moral guy trying to undo a corrupt city. I hope I am right.

So much good can be done here with a little leadership. :read:

I like the mayor's response. I'm thinking Daryl could be his assistant.

Seeking Mechanical Advantages-How Far Down is Down?
 

http://youtu.be/EDNCLchMYRI

At 1:27 into this film Lynn had finished showing the "release" or "throw" or "down" of the Swinger's Flail. Then, graciously, Lynn shows the Hitter's Flail. The "down" or "release" of the Hitter must benefit from being delayed since the force of the blow is carried closer to the ball as is the forward lean of the hands, so eloquently explained to me by Lynn, Kevin and Gerry.

To Hit effectively, It seemed as if Lynn fired "Down" as his hands got to his back foot and right elbow got to his side. Do the skilled Hitters in our group have a key or body location they employ to know when to fire down? :rolleyes:

Yesterday, my range practice with fatigued range balls seemed most effective when I slowly rolled my front shoulder up and almost horizontally fired my right hand to my left pant's pocket. The 8 iron flew with a high little 5 yard draw about 155 or so and sweet spot ripples of delight. (Perfect balance, too, thanks Lynn!)

Max distance however did not appear for other clubs including driver though everything had a draw and kept a solid flight line. So the ''Down" then of the Hit begins when? I understand why "over- acceleration" is really a problem missing where you might trigger the "Down." :naughty:

I had some success firing at the Plane Lane slightly before the ball with the driver dependably producing a high push and a big quacking 20 yard hook and roll shooting ahead of the teed ball by about an inch or so.

Am I getting warm?:read:

New hitting insights based on

http://youtu.be/bTtEHWEZRrs

1) the hitter stays tall so the back shoulder stays against the plane
2) RFT puts the back shoulder and hands on plane
3) taking up the slack could be done by back leg push forward or by front heel lead but staying tall is key

4) my hands are chewed up because I forgot the Hogan correct grip (man does that Hydrogen peroxide sting)
5) the correct grip makes the forward swivel very easy along with hitting down giving lots of power and noise baton swoosh noise
6) "Right forearm on plane, stable lower body (quiet knees/quiet feet, extensor action" thanks Lynn!

http://youtu.be/HYfOw_7jCTA

"back leg push forward", "Hogan correct grip" ?

Is that "Thinking Outside the Box" or simply "Thinking Outside the Book"?

Hogan's Left Hand Grip
 

Akward expression, orthodox grip! :)

In Hitting, there is a bump forward, right. Does it matter how you shift the hip?

Or, does "quiet feet, quiet knees" mean no hip shift?

The beauty of DOWN!
 

As I search for even greater Mechanical Advantages, I come across recurring themes like DOWN!

I want to Hit Down with my hands in a Both Arms Straight position well ahead of the club shaft! :golf:
