ok. i'm starting to get it to a degree. without all the tgm wording, etc, i should let the body do its thing as pretty much described, but give a place or location for it to go with using the hands. am i getting the jist of it?

landshark,

You pretty much got it.

Put your focus on the hands and whatever the body does, let it do.

In the golf swing, all we want to do is to take the hands up the plane to the Top and then back down the plane through to the Finish.

Impact is not a station or location to aim for as it is incidental to the swing.

A caveat however. For some of us, the body will disrupt this up and down path the hands must take, but that is another topic altogether...
