[O.B.Left]

Great question Buck

When we're done figuring out Flick can we also address Flip ...10-24-F ? Then we'll be in like Flint!


In regards to Float Loading ......I dont believe its just any old form of adding left wrist cock on the way down as I initially interpreted it to be. Its "gentle , lazy " and can be left wrist or right elbow loading and usually has simultaneous "assembly, loading and release". So, and I may be wrong here, but Im thinkin it aint anything like Hogan's "quick initial turn of the hips" hard loading of the knuckle and a delayed release via longitudinal acceleration and drag loading. No, its a very late , lazy load and flick . Basically to get the release point down close to the ball you gotta load way later if its a simultaneous load and release.

Yoda knows, he talked to me about this when we were watching the action at the Open last summer. Im going from memory so may have it all miscombobulated again. I think we were watching Ricky Fowler, I said "float" , he said "naw thats a slash" or something like that. Then he laid the difference between float and downcocking drag loading on me.

Yoda .....life line!
