I can understand a pivot-driven swing starting with a 8-7 start down move and that the right arm throw is only used to trigger the release of the power package. However, TT specifically states that one must start the downswing with a "right arm throw action" that throws the clubshaft down-and-out onto the plane before the body moves. TT also specifically states that one should get the "feeling" of getting the clubhead past the left thigh before the body moves. Of course, that's not possible, but I cannot understand TT's intent - which is to make the body reactive to the throw, and that it should respond secondarily to the throw action - rather than preceding the throw action (ala Ben Hogan). First, there is no TGM defense of DG's position. Second, since you provided no quote or reference regarding my "inference", I can only presume that you are referring to my Post #120 above. That being the case, I clearly stated that the Release Trigger is employed at -- gasp! -- the Release (8-9) and not at Start Down (8-7). Third, as far as Tom Tomasello and what he taught is concerned, I could care less, except that I am growing weary of correcting misconceptions either taught by him or promoted as being taught by him. __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage!
