And let me give a cigar right back at you.

Come on guys. This isnt the way we treat our guests. Even if he did lay a deuce on the rug of this free room in cyber space.
Lets hear him out, give him a fair trial and then hang him.
So Change My Swing:
What is your real science?

Homer Kelley told me 27 years ago that Centrifugal Force had been defined by scientists as a 'ficticious force'. Nevertheless, he chose to use the term as he himself defined it ("The resistance of the inertia in an orbiting object to change in direction." / The Glossary) in his three-piece solution to the three-dimensional puzzle of G.O.L.F.:
1. Centrifugal Force (Clubhead Control);
2. The Inclined Plane (Clubshaft Control); and
3. Hinge Action (Clubface Control). As long as Newton's First Law ( God's Law) of Motion stands, so does Homer's definition.
For those who persist in the academic conception, get over it.
Or forever remain a hacker.

Price of admission
"Look at any ball player's throwing motion: At no time will you see the arm start forward before they step. In fact, I would argue that it is still going back. "
The above quote from Yoda is about the only redemption of this entire carnage!

One man's gold is another man's dross. And vice versa. Our threads provide the melting pots.

That's anatomically impossible. The right forearm muscles cannot straighten the bent/folded right elbow. That function is performed by the UPPER arm triceps muscle.
Forerarm muscles can only perform the following anatomical actions-:
1) Flex, extend, abduct or adduct the fingers and thumb.
2) Palmarflex or dorsiflex the wrist.
3) Radially deviate or ulnarly deviate the wrist.
4) Pronate or supinate the hand.
Forearm muscles cannot flex or extend the elbow joint because they are distal (peripheral) to the elbow joint.
If anybody contests my opinion, please be so kind to name the right forearm muscle which is "supposedly" capable of straightening the right elbow joint.
Jeff.

Bingo Jeff: A lot of the "Magic of the Right Forearm" is what is done to move and direct the RFA, not anything done BY the forearm itself.

After trying to watch the TT SC session I can only say his teaching is the most foul, profane and ungentlemanly ever, and totally an unprofessional presentation.
If this were the only path to good golf many of us would still be hackers.

TT infact doesn't say that's the only path. YOU say that.Watch and listen to all his videos.If you understand just HALF of what he says you wouldn't still be a hacker like you are.
