OB Left

I know that I argue with extraordinarily stubborn vigor and that I don't easily give up arguing on behalf of my position. However, I am not really an ideologue. I don't adhere to any single swing philosophy, and I am constantly changing my opinions (albeit slowly and reluctantly at times). My personal golf website is unique in the sense that my website review papers contain many addendums - where I openly state that I have changed my opinions because of "revised" thinking regarding golf swing mechanics or biomechanics. I don't know of any other golf instructional website where the website owner openly/frequently states that he has changed his thinking about a golf swing issue.

However, at the same time, I don't believe in "authority-based" golf swing fundamentals. I will challenge any belief that doesn't make sense to me - like the idea of a pivot center and a pivot axis. I still remain unconvinced by any argument that supports the idea of a pivot center and/or a pivot axis, but I will consciously remain open to any "new" thoughts regarding the issue.

Doesnt it all just relate to the physics of rotation? What kind of spinning top would have no COG, no axis of rotation? Are you suggesting that golf is really more of a lateral move than a rotational one?
