By driving the "uppercut" into the #3 PP and to Both Arms Straight, the Titleist Z muscle backs feel like "buttah!" at impact.
Driver = 210 yards of carry with slight fade. (Range balls and 53 degrees in Philly). 9 iron is 130 yards of carry and 7 iron is 150 yards of carry. (Thanks Kevin, for da blades!)
JerryG, the two hybrids you talked me into carry 190 yards (16 degrees) and 180 ish for the 3 hybrid, 19 degrees). Thanks.

I didn't mean to say that CG. Sorry If I misled you.
PP # 3 is holding the LAG or weight of the club. RFT/EA to start, Angle Hinge face slightly open.
If you were Bruce Lee defending yourself against the drug-crazed minions of an evil Asian warlord, you might want to assault the throat region of some poor, very tall schlub with your stiff, power loaded # 3 PP. You would step into that evil person and drive your Power Package up and into that guy's throat feeling the back elbow smashed against your side and stiff so that your body thrust would mess up the fool and you could move on to other evil minions. (They travel in groups of hundreds, after all.)
Because you are pretending to be Bruce Lee, you should yell and contort your face to really scare the other driving range people.
Your # 3 PP is targeted to be driven to China and up into some evil minion. Step into the downward thrust driving the # 3 PP to the inside aft quadrant of the ball. ( Please do this on grass or you might be sore the next day.) As you step into the shot with vigor, allow the force to carry you to Both Arms Straight and up. There is no Finish Swivel because you are Hitting and I am not sophisticated enough yet, to describe exactly what happens past Both ARms Straight.
It is a lot like a baseball player striding forcefully into a pitch and you bring your elbow to your side so hard that the whole Power Package goes up then rotates.
My first feelings were to drive my elbow under and up into a guy's chin. Later, I incorporated the PP # 3 into that feeling. DO BASIC MOTION FIRST, THEN ACQUIRED....CHIP AND LOOK OUT!
I think I understand why tour players hate 50 yard shots, sometimes. I felt I was chipping with my elbow and the ball was leaving like a bullet. I could even feel the shaft flex which was very new to me. The elbow drive through my side fired my hands but my long right index finger extended down in a PP # 3 form was really feeling some shaft torque.
I hope this helps. Ask away. Others will help.

KEEP THE HITTING STROKE SHORT-BELOW THE WAIST, THEN BELOW THE SHOULDER!! IT IS CRAZY HOW EASILY YOU CAN DO THE SLIGHTEST RFT/EA AND MURDERLIZE (I AM AN EDUCATOR AND I CAN MAKE STUFF UP LIKE THAT WORD) THAT LITTLE BALL!
