What's the extra credit???
Can I play?...huh...huh...please...???
I'll be good, promise.

Extra Credit- Just means extra Kudos from me!

Yes, you can play- anyone can play. In fact, the sooner the better - I'd like to see this thread be a short one. It's not that tough.

For additional extra credit- you can also include what it is not. That information may help clarify the particular concept.

I still have a homerwork assignment that Annikan gave me a few weeks ago and a couple of new videos to work on, but I smell what you are asking for.

Wheweee - what a stinker!

So guys - MikeO is looking for tried and true TGM definitions. Not someone elses interpretation. Dig in and be a MikeO hero - If I make him like me, he'll have to search for another fan subject.

P.S. - MikeO is another old dude that hung out with Homer back in the day. Don't let his swing video fool you - that was a stand in.

Pure Hitting-

Right Arm Swing=right elbow is center of the stroke NOT the left shoulder.

Pure Hitting . . . no such thing . . . hitting is pushing period.

I put toe jam in your coffee this morning by the way.

Right Arm Swing-


Pure Hitting-

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Right arm swing
As B-man, Right wrist is center instead of Left shoulder.

In the book you find it under 7-19
The “Right Arm Swing” is simply 10-3-K with the loosened Wrists (7-1) and longitudinal acceleration using 7-19-3 above. Only with this “Rope Handle” procedure can the Right Arm be said to “Swing” – and still per 1-L-9 and -10. But with the Axe Handle procedures there must be a straight line piston to avoid injury of the right elbow ligaments. So, if there is a twinge in the elbow, you are Swinging the Right Arm.

Right Elbow Center of stroke- with longitudinal acceleration-nice job! One down and One to go.

Now, we just need to properly define Pure Hitting.

Sooo, You did not like my suggestion - Ted Fort !!!

Ok, lets try with this then

Pure Hitting is when you keep centrifugal force out of your motion.

For me- using TGM terms - Pure=True

That's 7-2 - True Swinging or True Hitting.

Pure Hitting would be when the acceleration method- pushing - automatically aligns the clubface. As opposed to "Hand Manipulaton", i.e. consciously or subconsciously- making sure you arrive at impact with a flat, level and vertical left wrist - assuming that you took your grip that way.

In a left arm swing, the right arm push.
In a right arm swing, the right arm Swings around the right elbow and the left swing along with it, and flat left wrist is no longer an imperative...

----------------------------
So....

Anything which allow CF throwout is swinging or works like a sling. Allow the assembly to work like a Flail. True swinger.

And another side of the extreme , true hitter. Muscular drive out. True hitter.


Then there is somewhere in between. This is where its a little Grey...

IMPO. As long as the right, forearm supports the secondary assembly , CF throwout in the picture, left arm have 2 hinges and pulled like a rope. if the forearm supports Primary assembly, there is no way to get CF throwout and the left arm becomes a brick wall as there is only one hinge.

and if this"passive" extensor action pulls the PP 1+3 , I believe the extensor action is more "active" than the extensor action just pulling via pp 3 ..

7-3 explains of such combination of extensor action. Merely on PP3 will have extreme " throwaway" . Thus with PP 1 + PP3 could be preferred on full swing ,

PP1 an PP3 pulling of extensor action, will have effect on how to setup the Flail. thus create different type of Slinging action. but both are swinging...
one look more softer and wristy with more "throw'. one look more powerful with more "drive". 7-3 right forearm have to be thrown or driven .
