Tommy Tomasello -- The Downstroke Motion

[Richw]

I love to watch these videos over and over, thanks to all that made it happen.

It makes me smile to think that his TGM swing lasted all that time. In the video you could hear the compression... such a sweet sound.

Great videos. If I'm not mistaken, even if you don't decide to use the conscious right fore-arm swing motion on the downswing, this sequence of motions still shows the correct movement of the human body in time and space for the pure CF swing.

Of course, I'm quite often mistaken.

Tarkus,

No, you're not mistaken...the swinger using the right forearm swing motion can learn from the lower body swinger just as the lower body swinger can learn from the right arm accelerated swinger...

In fact, in learning to use the right arm motion at it's optimal...first, Tommy had the golfer trigger the startdown with the right forearm but would have the golfer pivot thrust to complete the swing (focusing on the left hip)...all golfers need to learn/feel a correct pivot motion...to add power to the stroke, Tommy used the uncocking of the right elbow from the top triggered by the right forearm...now, with the trained pivot, the body just responds to the action of the right forearm....THE MAGIC OF THE RIGHT FOREARM.
