MAx trigger delay and short game

[psheehan]

Trevino
Hogan
Annika

Inside 100yds Billy Maxwell was absolutely one of the best.... If I had to vote all time.. I'd pick 1)Maxwell, 2)Trevino with a bunch of tied for 3rd's....including Gay Brewer who wasn't mentioned.

From about a 100 yds or so... HIT

Short gamers may prefer a Hit Stroke with at least hands at Impact Postion. With a short take back, there may be least time to set the Flying Wedges. From Impact Position they are set to go. With a driving right arm and pivot, I get a "no release' release feel.

It is important to know what the hands are doing. Will they roll back to square or will the pivot square the face? If you hit the hostel too often, you are failing to pivot.

Now pls 6b tell me if you mispelt "hit the hostel too often" but actually u mean hosel ,meaning one is shanking? I would be interested in the subject
as it happens to me when hitting (especially short irons).
Thank you

ouch- yes I meant to write HOSEL, as in HOSEL ROCKET. But if you do hit the HOSTEL too often, it might be a shank. Or a hook. I just hate writing the S word or the Y word.

If your small chips are hitting off the HOSEL, you are leading the Hosel into impact. You turned the clubface away from the ball and did NOT roll or Swivel it back into Impact. Or you have No Pivot to roll the face sqaure. Lag the sweet spot not the HOSEL. Watson learned from Nelson his short game and have a very active pivot with his chips and pitches.

Even a Hitter with a clubface that does not turn- still employs a small pivot. The shoulders are the link between the turn and the thrust.

Thanks a lot 6b,
that helps ,even though I didn't mean little chip shots but HITTING full motion shots with short irons (SW-PW,9-8 irons),more rarely with longer clubs.

If the stroke for the shot has the time to use a Max trigger snap release- go for it. Float Load, pivot and release.


If you are hitting the hosel on full shots with short irons (but not on long)- you might be doing one of the snares, steering or stopping the shot causing the hosel to replace the clubface. Fear of hitting it too long???

The uncocking and roll with a Max Trigger requires a very small pulley. I solved a bad right side leak last year by re-establishing my rhythm with a sweep release.

I know this is not the right section of the forum,but as you mentioned hosel shots here,I posted here.
I'm referring to HITTING procedure . As I said,I'm HITTING . Do I have to think of unkocking and roll with max trigger? (do u swing o hit? I guess the first).
Could be that I'm steering unconsciously. As for fear of hitting it too long,are u joking?On the contrary.
I was blaming an exaggerated cross-line delivery path too much to the outside
for my shanking. What do you think?

Thanks

I do not think of a Max trigger with a Hit Stroke and Drive Loading since all accumulators are released at the same instant but it can be done- I never have come across it. This is why I assumed you were Swinging. Cross Line delivery is from the inside to the right. Hopefully a Hitter will be able to help more. Good Luck.

Are you joking? The thought of hitting (small h) the shot too long was in reference to the target – where you want to land it on the green- not your big strong muscles to crush the ball. Many golfers fear over shooting their target and will subconsciously brake by slowing down the hands and clubhead and destroying their rhythm.

Ok 6b.
That clears the matter.
Thank you anyway for your help.
