"At first it looks and feels like a reverse pivot," Baddeley says, "but now I absolutely love the feeling of being right on top of the ball."

The Top of the Standard Pivot is illustrated in TGM's Photo 10-12-A #1. Its Follow-Through alignments are illustrated in Photo 10-12-A #2.
In these Photos, the Pivot alignments stand as illustrated above and defined in 7-12 and 10-12-A.
Morever...
For those who would incorrectly use a Body (Pivot) illustration to analyze Arm and Hand relationships, i.e., use the Follow-Through Photo to differentiate alignments in the Hands Lane (Zone 3 -- 1st six editions), the Hinge Action is Angled.
Which, of course, is totally irrelevant to the illustrated Standard Pivot.

I personally know Bennett and Plummer probably better than anyone on any of these forums(We worked together and were trained together in the secret society...Bah ha ha) might as well add Dave Quinn in there as well.....What they are telling these guys is just basic stuff and the reason they are successful IS because they know what they are doing(TGM and MORAD) and they know how to handle these guys...It is cool what they are doing and Plummer as much as anyone loves Homer's work ...He's like a 9 year old trading baseball cards anytime it(TGM) is discussed...

Hi Annikan,
Can you tell me why, on the backswing, they use steeper shoulder turn rather than a standard shoulder turn?
Thanks

I can get my left arm out more and can manage were and when my arm is to my chest line from there.Thats why at p6<sorry morad term> shaft gets lvl the hip line with cog's forward.Making a clean pivot. However my CF swing is done with a Standerd Turn.
Then my arm drops more.It all fits both ways we just do it with the Cog transfer.

err
Was morad ever published?
Can someone give an Overview of What Morad content, highlights is?
I am under the impressions that Morad had achieved some kind of secret society status symbol. But Look at Aaron B. ... what a sweet looking swing.

there is so much to morad as there is to tgm so although you can learn alot about tgm from this site you would learn it so much better by going to one of lynns schools the same for morad you really need to spend a few days of personal instruction at a school to get the concepts down
