Annikan Skywalker - Downstroke Sequence

[EdZ]

Edz said: [She]... a bit early on the finish swivel perhaps, or an aiming point that is slightly farther back than it should be. These are very minor in her case.

I have a question about this “Hinging” and/or “finish swivel”:
First I assume:
1. These are both pics of the “follow through” position where both arms are straight.
2. Since you’re probably “Swinging” then you’re intending to use Horizontal Hinging.

OK, here's where I'm confused...
Edz has said that she seems to be “a bit early on the finish swivel.” But isn’t hers the way you are supposed to look, at the "both arms straight position", if you are using Horizontal Hinging? How can you [Annikan] be using Horizontal Hinging if your hands look like yours at followthrough. Wouldn’t that be more like Angled Hinging?

Isn't Horizontal Hinging a "full roll" through impact? her's looks like a full roll. Has she gone rolled too far too early?

The key difference, and the 'root' of the issue is her grip.

Note how well David has maintained his right wrist bend in the comparison above, vs. the flat right wrist position of Melanie.

Melanie's right hand grip is too much in her fingers, rather than being at the 'root', or base, of the fingers/palm. This forces her to take a stronger left hand grip in order to 'balance' the tendency of a right hand fingers grip to open the clubface, and doesn't allow her to keep her right hand wedge until follow through.

Both David's grip and Billy Herring's grip are far better, as you can clearly see in the impact and follow through positions in their sequences.

This is an area where TGM and 'traditional' teaching are rather different, and it is a VERY important difference.

Your pattern always comes back to your grip. I can certainly relate, as I had for many years used a right hand grip that was too far in the fingers - which just destroys the right forearm wedge.

Hitting chip shots right hand only can show you the proper location, at the 'root' of the fingers.

Heck of a motion from Billy Herring David!
