POWER ACCUMULATOR #1 AND HITTING

[12 piece bucket]

6-B-1-0 THE FIRST POWER ACCUMULATOR is the Bent Right Arm - the Hitter's (7-19) Muscle Power Accumulator.

According to 6-B-1-C Maximum Trigger Delay is gained by causing the Right Elbow to "Pass the Ball" - which is the Line-of-Sight-to-the-Ball - before Release.

So this is of extreme importance to the Hitter. BUT does the Hitter ever employ MAX TRIGGER DELAY of this accumulator?

Purportedly, Lee Trevino did.

Loren,as a matter of interest ,did Lee slice,the only way I can do that is float load and it just doesnt feel right

[Loren]

Dunno. There are extensive discussions here on Trevino. Can learn a lot. Also search on "Lee Buck".

I would think Lynn could add a ton to this, considering (from memory) I believe he followed Trevino at the Masters (not to mention being an historian) - and, I am sure, studied his swing...

Lynn?

I'm not the omnipotent and omniscient green guy, but I'll give you my 2 cents.

I use all 4 barrels for max power. I use the Swinger's Start Down but Load the Right Elbow in preparation for Drive Loading. As I Load the Right Elbow so late, it certainly looks to be a Float. It's important to Delay the Trigger as long as possible, but it becomes more difficult to control the Clubface as you approach Pitch Elbow/Snap Release. Release too soon, and you'll find those 300 yard drives few and far between.

My take...

Usually, Hitters wouldnt employ max trigger delay - why? -cause they are using right arm thrust from end point - meaning - their release is a result of thrust and, again my opinion, wouldnt be concerned with, nor attempt to max trigger delay - - - -hopefully, their concern are alignments.

So..from end, they employ right arm thrust, which in turn, begins the release sequence - GENERALLY.

Not saying they cant, they can, just doesnt make sense.

Philly, I couldn't agree with you more! Which means that something may be wrong with your thinking.

If I may add, here-in lies the inherent problem with Hitting Procedure. The amount of Right Arm Thrust can present a Timing issue even if done correctly .

If all of you will come over to the Swingers Procedure, timing won't be such an issue and we'll reduce hernia operations by 50%. Think what that may do to Health Insurance Costs.

Coming from a swinging procedure for 10 years, and won a few college tourneys with it, I am all over the change to the hitting methods. I love the feeling of driving the bent right and through impact which helps me drive my bent right wrist through the ball. When I played my best, I noticed that it always came after some significant stretching and yoga. If I sat on the range... aka my office... for a week and then jumped onto the golf course, the long clubs just didn't have that smooth pull and dump into the ball. I would sometimes notice my pivot slowed soon after impact.

With working on more right arm extension and a delayed intended hip movement from the top, I'm finding it easier to get through the ball and finish my move.

The down the line video shots are looking much better too. My hands are lower at impact and my hips are turned more towards the target. 2 things I had trouble with with the swinging methods.
