Question on Right Forearm Alignment at Top

[12 piece bucket]

Please discuss right forearm alignment at top for hitting procedure and swing procedure. . . . take into account release type (sequenced vs simultaneous)....and loading...and support of the lever assembly being loaded...

First one looks like a full blood hitter. This guy seem to be doing everything he can to keep pp#1 & #3 aimed straight through the club face for as long as possible.

Tiger looks a bit like a switter I think. The forearm is aligned for swinging perhaps, but I'm not sure if his wrists and pp's are. Could be a 4 barrel with dual horizontal-ish hinge though.

I see clearly two different level assemblies being supported....

Sweet spot working out and over supported by Right Forearm...It's no wonder this cat stomped a mud hole in people...beautiful stuff..wonder what would have happened if he had more Hogan pivot through the ball?....Simultaneous Release....





Swingy....sweet spot releasing underneath...sequenced

I have in front of me, the 2-33 1/3 rpm record album and included booklet titled "personal GOLF INSTRUCTION from driver thru putter--- By ARNOLD PALMER
narrated with Chris Schenkel"
put out thru Ford in the mid 60's.

I do not have a turn-table set up at the moment but from the booklet;
WOODS
Page 9 - frame 7
QUOTE- "At the same time the club is PULLED DOWN
with the LEFT hand. It is NOT PUSHED down or FLIPPED DOWN
with the RIGHT hand." (Emphasis was as shown)

I can certainly see how he would feel that...if he would have just pushed forward more like Hogan maybe he wouldn't have the the patented whirleee-bird.....of course you may have never heard of him....but man that is a pretty release motion....sweetspot releasing out to the ball...vs....stewart cink releasing the sweetspot under to the ball....squenced vs. simultaneous.....AP's sweetspot staring down the ball at delivery...can see how he would have been a great driver of the ball....Homer of course genius ...hitting aficionado

If you kick the sweetspot out is that created with force against the shaft and more akin to a hitting procedure?

I know MOG has the sweetspot kick out in his model and he advocates a hitting motion though he really never calls it that from what has been relayed to me.

Could be completely off target here but to me this seems to be the difference between Sequenced vs. Simultaneous Release.......

In my opinion Arnie loaded his Lag Pressure Point at the Non Rotated location ( the index finger). See 6-H-0 but remember it is distinguishing between true Swinging and Drive Loading as opposed to Hitting general ( condider the hitter who employs a Swingers Drag Loading in Start Down for instance who might load the Rotated lag Pressure Point)

I think Arnie did drag load and Delay his release. Release of his Active Right Elbow, Hitting, although he has a lot of #2 angle as well. A Non Auto Right Arm Throw, non Sequenced simultaneous Release. He Drives Out with a strong sense of Lag Pressure at #3 pp on the Index Finger, on the Aft of the Shaft. Giving him a desire to load same on the way back.

His Arched Left Wrist is nuance and off plane perhaps but is often seen in golfers who load the finger hard in strart up with a tendency to wag it under plane like Raymond Floyd or Nancy Lopez.

He's loaded the #3 pp at the location consistent with his Release Throw. At the first joint in the right index finger. His drag loading will tend to move it to the Rotated Position and load the #2 perhaps ..... A complication Homer wasn't fond of.

Armies 4B Hitting in short. I think, maybe.

Bucket his arch could change his right forearm position a tad but I concur with youre observation. He's supporting the direction of loading , against the #3 at the first joint in anticipation of his drive out action against the aft of the shaft.
