Basic Motion and CF
 

I am working on Basic Motion. When I try to roll my hands through impact actively, I am more successful at getting a FLW at impact with the shaft leaning forward than when I try to allow the hands to roll as a result of centrifugal force. My problem is that I am trying to be a swinger rather than a hitter, and I feel that the active movement of the hands is more a hitter's motion than a swingers. If I am trying to swing, what should the feel of roll be like in Basic Motion? Do I have consciously to make my hands roll into impact position, or should CF be sufficient? Thanks for your help.

Basic Motion is a hitting procedure...actuating power accumulator #1 and pressure point number 1...zero pivot, minimal shoulder motion

You can also swing during the Basic Motion if you are using a Pull minor stroke per 10-3-D.

A couple of questions...

Can there be turning of the left wrist in the basic motion?

If I use the left thumb to push the clubhead down during basic motion am I using a hitting technique?

Basic Motion is BASIC MOTION, neither a Swing or a Hit procedure. Two feet back two feet through- zero pivot.
No time to pull the shaft in a straight line so it may feel more like a hit, BUT Hit or Swing the right arm straightens past low point.

Acquired and Full motion adds the Hit or Swing components.

Basic Motion 1-L-7 Stage 1 the lever assembly is driven by exerting pressure against it...2 feet back and 2 feet through is active driving of pa #1..some would call this hitting

Good thread!

Welcome to the LBG forum TB!

From what I was taught through basic motion is my left arm pushing my right arm through the stroke (LEFT HANDED) I use an angled hinge for this procedure which would give my right arm , left arm for you, a half roll

learning curriculum
 

Basic Motion is a Motion not an Action. It is a curriculum to teach the motion through the ball that includes both arm motions, the Flying Wedges, PPs 2 and 3, Rhythm, Extensor Action and clubface alignment through all the Hinge Motions. Along with Plane and Stance lines, foot action, etc under a Stationary head. A lot goes on at the bottom of the Circle. It teaches.

Now, if you use Basic Motion as a chip shot than it would be an Action. You can then decide if you want to pull a zeroed out acc#3 with PP3 or push the Right Arm acc#1 through pp1 and 3. It will look the same. The Flying Wedges are the same. The power action is different.

Basic Motion is a learning curriculum.

Yep yep . . . key words being PUSH or PULL.
