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.
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?
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
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 hitting procedure...actuating power accumulator #1 and pressure point number 1...zero pivot, minimal shoulder motion
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
