I figure if Homer was looking down in 1993, I'm pretty they're both looking down now in between golf shots and getting a kick out of all this non-sense surounding the little yellow book.

Pretty creepy bringing up TT and HK that way. Dude- tell a pill.
Here are a few things Homer wrote about the
Pivot, Lag and stroke sequence. It differs from some beliefs posted above by others- I guess I just misinterpret again.
8. Hip Slide starts the down swing.
(from a stroke sequence list)
Keep your body ahead of your hands and your hands ahead of the club.
(that is one leading the other the right order.)
Educated Hands are those that can feel the resistance of motion --
CLUBHEAD lag.
(that happens when fully loaded- Pivot and Accumulator Lag)
5. Improve one step at a time, start with the pivot.
(that important, it is , yes)
Hula Hula - This flexibility allows the right forearm to remain on
plane and keeps the shoulder motion and hip motion independent. Keep these (2) separate.
(not what DG reports and see SEC- it allows the right forearm magic to remain on plane- that is what the Man said- no me)
A sharp Backstroke Turn, a Downstroke Hip Slide only, (before the Arm Motion begins) encourages "On Plane" Pivot alignments.
So its - Turn, Slide, Swing.
(lets see- a RFT, then a DS Hip Slide BEFORE Arm Motion begins to encourage ON PLANE Pivot alignments- Geez that Homer was a rebel. DG says no way. )
Careful:
Aiming Point - At the Top of the Backstroke - even at the End -
mentally construct a line from the Hands to the Aiming Point. Let a
careful Downstroke Pivot move the Hands precisely along this line
they will "feel" as though they remain at the top of the Stroke. Don't question that Feel - just sustain (monitor) it, all ready for Release at the preselected Release Point. Drive the Hands (Clubhead Feel) "down the line" until both arms are straight, NO QUITTING! This procedure merely utilizes a long used method for drawing freehand straight lines between two points. Using the Clubshaft as the pencil is an effective equivalent.
(Holy Fudge- Downstroke Pivot moves the Hands- WTF is Homer doing here. Okay it is a well trained and fairly careful Downstroke Pivot but move the Hands?? And they will ‘feel’ like they remained at the top- question not- just sustain and monitor the “it” and get ready for release and then drive the Hands in a down the line until both are straight? Homer, what are you saying? That the Hands are clamps before release?)
But Homer is all wrong, right?
