The Pivot will comply/adjust to the Path of my Hands regardless of where my hands are headed.

Turning my shoulders is way too hard of a procedure for me. My pivot gets all whacked as soon as it thinks it has freedom and can move independently. Unless I'm on the Range where after awhile, even the worst pivot will hit everything straight (Pivot adjustments subconsciously made to hit the ball straight - i.e. hacking at the ball) . Hell, when I'm on the range I can hit the Ball retriever tractor every time. Most people can. That's really funny because it's a moving target. These same people, when on the Golf Course can't hit the green more than 50% of the time from 150 yards, and that's a stationary target 20 times the size of the tractor.

I know exactly the Path of the Hands. The Hands Path controls the shoulder turn direction and amount on any given length of shot. The Shoulders control the amount of Hip turn needed. So, the Shoulder and Hip turns are never too much or not enough and my Pivot Lag Amount is always the same.

I need a precise amount of Right Elbow Bend at the Top of the Swing. The Steeper the Plane Angle (Shorter Clubs), the less Bend in the Right Elbow. My Elbow bend stops automatically when my hands reach the Plane on the Backstroke and my arms begin to raise to the Top of the Swing moving my right shoulder exactly where it needs to go. Then, I drive the Power Package into Release. I don't straighten the Right Arm during the Downstroke, so the Right forearm has to be perfect at Release.

My way of using the Hands to go to the Top of the Swing, gives me the precise amount of Right Elbow Bend I need for any given Plane Angle.

I have the pleasure of knowing that 99.99% of my poor shots result from poor execution and not incompatible component selection due to poor decision making.
