The Clubshaft always points at the Plane Line except when they are parallel to each other. Ted's impact alignments are MARVELOUS, and even though his procedure does not follow the above dictum to the full extent ...aren't predictable impact alignments the end that we all should be seeking? Eddie, For the Hitter using the Angle of Approach procedure, the 'old' Plane Angle with its Straight Line Baseline is gone. It served its purpose by locating the Stroke's Impact Point and Low Point. Through these two points passes its derivative -- the Straight Line Angle of Approach Delivery Line. This Visual Equivalent thus determined, the original Plane ceases to exist (2-J-3). The Hitter with his Clubhead now Covers -- not Traces or 'points at' -- this new Delivery Line. And whatever Inclined Plane the Sweetspot must utilize to make this journey is now the Inclined Plane of the Stroke. |

Trials and Errors
Quote:
Started this morning at 6:45am on a beautiful day deciding on a pattern of straightening my right leg on the backswing and pushing off the inside of the back foot. Produced a consistent fade except when i was coming over the top! :sad2: Also had no chipping or putting rhythm and slopped it around badly. :confused: &D: 2nd "18" used a knee/knee Swing (forgot about the Angle Hinge and hit some frozen ropes for the first time ever!!! :read: one-two, 1/2, knee/knee and the club whipped up and down! :laughing1 Suddenly I was shorter than the club pro by only 10 yards and ahead of the other part of our foursome. Stationary head produced a very satisfying controlled baby draw unless I opened the face. Went away from forcing the putting of my chips from all around the green in exchange for "dragging the mop" with a slight knee -knee pop. Also made level wrists on the putter my goal and got my putts much closer burning lots of edges. Much better1:whistle: No birds but lots of pars! I even splashed out nicely from three bunkers! Follow through is important in a bunker! :thumright Does a Hitter do a knee-knee Pivot also just using a Paddle Wheel to come down and Angle of Approach? ICT |
I don't know how to do a parallel hip bump! :oops:

Confused in a good way

Level left wrists, knee leads lagging backstroke and I pull the handle directly away from the target parallel to the target line producing a lively draw. :) As I pull like crazy, my left heel plants, my left hip opens and the ball goes bang off the driver, and zzzzzz off the irons and hybrids and it goes far! What's really odd is doing it from Impact Fix and producing towering five yard fades! The ground was so hard that I had to abandoned my 52 degree wedge and chipped exclusively with my 60 degree wedge. :salut: ICT |
Clarity in part....

When Davis Love lll was in college there was an article in Golf Digest about how he hit it so far. Davis Love Jr. and Tommy discussed his "Magic Move". I remember Tommy saying it was a tricky move, like drawing an arrow out of a quiver. Does anyone remember that article? Any comments about the "Magic Move"? I thought it was interesting that Tommy influenced Davis Love Jr.'s teaching. #55 03-27-2005, 09:30 PM JohnThomas1 Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2005 Posts: 238 Tommy does actually go into the "drawing an arrow out of a quiver" in one of these clips. Dave would be able to tell you where it was exactly for sure. It's just as you said it was in the book. #56 03-28-2005, 01:20 AM lagster LBG Pro Contributor Join Date: Jan 2005 Posts: 848 Re: Tomasello in Golf Digest Originally Posted by mpw I met Tommy in the early 80's.

Tom lived in Atlanta for some time. He probably met Davis then. I think Tom got the "drawing an arrow out of a quiver" right from 10-19-C-- Drag Loading. #57 03-28-2005, 10:40 AM drewitgolf Lynn Blake Certified Senior Instructor Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Massachusetts Posts: 1,320 If my memory is correct, that sub-section of the Golf Digest article was a debate (panel discussion) by a few golf professional (mostly those on the Golf Digest Advisory Staff) on what they thought allow Davis Love III to hit the ball so far. Lagster is correct on the 10-19-C. __________________ Drew Let Your Motion Make the Shot. #58 03-31-2005, 01:41 PM mpw Junior Member Join Date: Feb 2005 Posts: 3 Thanks for the replies, and thanks for this forum.

I remember Tommy saying it was a tricky move, like drawing an arrow out of a quiver. Does anyone remember that article? Any comments about the "Magic Move"? I thought it was interesting that Tommy influenced Davis Love Jr.'s teaching. After listening to my Tomasello 3 day school audio tapes....the Magic Move mentioned above....it's the "Magic of the Right Forearm". Tommy had a very specific why of teaching it. It's indirectly mentioned in Davis Love Jr's book "How to Feel a Real Golf Swing" in the discussion about how Davis Love III learned to drive a ball 350 yards. I highly recommend the book... Another point about the "Magic Move" being tricky....it takes some getting use to the right forearm starting the downswing. It's interesting that the "Magic of the Right Forearm" didn't appear in the book until the 6th edition. I know Tomasello was working with Homer at the time the 5th edition came out. Just don't know the exact date that Tommy made his first phone call to Homer. Books to checkout with the right arm involved with swinging: Mark Evershed's "The Golf Solution" Davis Love Jr's/Bob Toski "How to Feel a Real Golf Swing" John Jacob's "Practical Golf" Ernie Els "How to Build a Classic Golf Swing" All of the texts mention above are in line the Magic of the Right Forearm approach that Tommy taught...active arms and quite body (responding pivot). |
Bobby Jones at 4:14 of this video shows definite longitudinal acceleration to start the downstroke watch the dotted line.
http://youtu.be/Fm8x0105cEY My left side instinctively planted and braced as I told my hands to "pull the arrow from the quiver." It was much like throwing a football in the planting and pulling the hand or a very large "wheel rim" procedure right from the top. As long as my head was steady and watching the ball, the shot stayed on line. Again, what was strange was getting my normal distances with an Angle Hinge, carry back and longitudinal acceleration = very high fades with 8 iron plus needing to adjust the face closed to some degree. I have to experiment with my right leg straightening ala Jones and Mike Austin to see if more power and accuracy are available to this duffer! ICT |
Longitudinal Acceleration
Mike Austin = "Pause N Throw" =Longitudinal Acceleration sort of.... :)
I am a natural scientist. Could you tell? I want the "why and how?" I have the "Pause N Throw" which works pretty well and now I know that Mike Austin and his guys do a good job accelerating away from the target line. http://youtu.be/4yDwImZnpIU http://youtu.be/UibG8qcMDqM http://youtu.be/QjfnHQbw-tU http://youtu.be/962X9A1oQsI Of course, TGM and Lynn Blake explained this very well! :laughing1 Longitudinal Acceleration helps small people drive the ball as far as tall people! It is the technique that multiplies Pivot Power, imho, controlled by the hands. One last thing for now, Lynn teaches that the club has to be traveling "Down, Out and Forward." In the following video, one of my favorites, the Longitudinal Acceleration from a "down the line" point of view appears to be moving down as it comes toward the viewer! To quibble, one might say that the club head moves "away from the target, down, out and forward" but it looks down from down the line. http://youtu.be/vVws0CQqTDc "Most people are not getting near enough distance," and the "hips respond to the right arm." http://youtu.be/J0_sBjPRrY4 ICT |
