Video: Hosel rotating around Sweet Spot
 

We're resurrecting the dead horse. If we can't agree that the hosel leaves the Plane and returns to it, then we are seeing different things.

Do all Hitters need clubs that big?:laughing9

Nope, Ben Hogan had more forward bend in the ankles at P4.
:laughing9 :laughing9 :laughing9

Seriously, I don't know how we can argue with that. Very nice demo pro!

Kevin

Nice demonstration Luke. That should be in the Gallery I think.

Would I be right in thinking that you chose swinging just because it demonstrates this point to a more visible extreme? Hitting or swinging we swing the sweetspot but hitting having less swivel makes it harder to visually see the shaft rotate to or off the plane?

Nice view of the Swamp there too. I love that little green. Doesnt look too cold down there. Makes me wonder how much the airfare would be next week.......

Not So Daffy Duck
 

Great demo, Ted. If it . . .

Looks like a duck;

Walks like a duck; and

Quacks like a duck . . .

Then maybe, just maybe . . .

It's a duck!

when Swinging, do as the Swingers do
 

When I'm Swinging, I need the biggest Sweet Spot I can find. But, the tip that you gave me at Cuscowilla about putting on my big girl panties when Swinging was really helpful. It puts me in the proper mood. It's like wearing cowboy boots when riding a horse. It makes you feel like a cowboy. :angel1:

If- and it's a BIG "if",you were swinging, then you need some more pivot and horizontal hinging -and you were way off plane in the followthrough .
I seem to remember at Cuscowilla that I said big girl swinger panties were better than the young Girl's hitters panties. You can still wear the cowboy boots -I know you like them:eyes:

Delta's ready when you are
 

We'd be glad to have you. I'll pick you up at the airport. :) Don't come on Monday or Tuesday. It might snow. Then, Thursday through Saturday we have a shot at the 60's.

I'd say yes to both of your questions. And, using the big club helps to show it.

Ill check with the wife and the airlines. The first one is the hardest to arrange, aint no travelocity to handle those arrangements, if you know what I mean. it just might work, I did the dishes tonight.

You know, Im wondering where the heck the sweetspot is on that club? Did you check it out? You might be even more on plane than you illustrated.

Great stuff, thanks

I originally made this clip for the discussion of on plane backstroke...with sweet spot plane line there....any idea in relation to this thread?

Video
 

YodasLuke, Your video has got to be one of the best
all time instructional videos that I have ever seen.
Thanks for doing it.

Donn

Great video my friend. Just having the visual works for me and has answered a few questions that I was mulling over before.
Thanks!
Alex

wow
 

great work, ted. when are you going to bring your swing invention to the forefront?

the patent
 

I've been talking to a patent attorney, and I've checked on a trademark name. I've met with a mechanical engineer to talk about the drawings. So, we're working on it. It's a very tedious process.

Helping Hands
 

The Force is in good hands.

:salut:

What swing invention ? The club with enormous head ?

Cheers

swing Plane device
 

I have a device that I'm in the process of getting patented. It's a unique Plane device.

I'm very excited about this, and I'm holding off on other plane training devices until yours is available.

Kevin

sounds...
 

interesting......any lasers on it?

could be...
 

They would serve no other purpose than alignment for the device. But, other cheaper methods of alignment have a greater possibility of being used.

I want to keep it as cost effective as I can.

Getting the Skinny
 

Nice Ted,

Wonderful explanation. BTW, you look like you lost some weight. Staying away from the "Sweet Spots" are we?

it appears, i have a finders fee coming.

6'0", 126 lbs
 

I'm not sure if I'll be able to get back to my high school fighting weight, but I might be svelte the next time we meet. And, I think the mustache is history.

How did you keep "THE THING" in those shorts?:laughing1

Shorts
 

By Horizontal Hinging Neil!!!:laughing1

Ted,

With a comb-down, Are you sure you didn't win seven golds as Mark Spitz?

:laughing9

no Olympic golds
 

My only golds were in age group and regional races, never on the world level. There's only one record that I still hold:

I wish I hadn't stopped for a bathroom break, in that race. :crybaby:

6:17 per mile??!! Even at 15, you were a god. I'm not sure if it's horizontal or vertical hinge in those shorts that keeps things in line, and I don't think I want to know. Good video.
