[12 piece bucket]

I read on this board that swingers are left arm dominant (#2 and #4pp for power), and hitters use their right tricep and #3PP for power. Is this correct? If so, what do I need to use to trace the plane line? I have been using #3pp (right forefinger), but this is for hitting, no??

If true about swingers using left arm, then what do I do (if anything) with my right arm, besides the BRW?

As a Swinger you must get your mellon soaked up in this here . . .

6-C-2-A THE ESSENCE of Clubhead Lag technique is that it is always both Aiming AND Thrust. Passive – it is primarily Aiming the Lag Pressure. Active – it is the primarily Thrusting the Lag Pressure Point. The Orbiting Clubhead does not seek out the Ball – it seeks out the Delivery Line. But never directly – only via the Right Forearm and the #3 Pressure Point per 2-F, 5-0 and 7-3. It is guided along that Line to the Both Arms Straight configuration by the straight line thrust of the #3 Pressure Point toward the Angle of Approach quadrant of the Ball – or Aiming Point – per 1-F, 1-L-9/10, 2-J-3 and 6-E-2.

I would add the #2 is also extremely important in the "aiming" of lag for the swinger. The initial move is to drag the butt of the club DOWN the PLANE toward the Plane Line. This is how the orbit of the club is initially established. Your body is MASSIVE relative to the arms and the club and it is also responsible for the ORBIT. This orbit is of HUGE importance. The hands direct the orbit but OFFPLANE SHOULDER MOTION CAN DISRUPT IT and thereby disrupt all the motion.

The plane is BOSS. The ORBIT is TWO DIMENSIONAL on the flat surface of that plane. CF wants to align your arms with the motion of the shoulders which are massive in comparison. Your right shoulder must go downplane as directed by dragging the butt of the club DOWN THE PLANE . . . the tilting of the shoulder axis is MISSION CRITICAL to getting the orbit right at Start Down. If you roundhouse, you have just made the orbit 3-dimensional.

See the Glossary on Axis Tilt. The example is a helicopter tilt the axis of rotation of its blades to move up down or turn. Your arms and the club are the "blades" of your chopper . . . shoulders are the rotor or axel or axis or whatever the hell it is . . . you gotta tilt the axis to get the blades to start down plane. Then you continue that motion by directing the lag felt on #3 all the way DOWN OUT AND THROUGH YOUR AIMING POINT.
