Swinging and LAG howto?

[yodeli]

I would never do the "usual" swing again. I love the changes you've made. Keep up the good work; it's very impressive.

As far as the lack of straightening in the right arm, the biceps must be resisting the straightening of the arm. I would have you work from the smaller strokes to the bigger strokes, while looking at your right arm in the finish. Obviously, the right arm should bend when finishing Total Motion. See if you can look at your arm after every stroke. If it's bent in the finish, straighten it, while you keep looking at it. If Extensor Action is properly employed throughout the stroke, centrifugal force should straighten the right arm.

It looks like a Swing to me, and I'd leave it that way. But, I'd add Extensor Action to Follow-Through.

Aaah, back again after a lot more testing. Here are the results and more questions:

After more practice with the "Lag Swing" I'm now struck in a dead-end: I explained that to achieve this result I was doing what felt like a 1/3 backswing interrupted on its way by immediately starting the downstroke.
Even if the result looks good on the pictures, it is still a short swing (acquired motion?) and the ball doesn't go as farther as the previous "ugly swing".

You bet what I did?

I tried to go from 1/3 swing to Full Swing.

No way!
Each time I try to go to a full swing in an attempt to reclaim more yardage or to hit it farther, everything messes up and I look like I do my old swing (even if I FEEL I am still interrupting the backstroke ).

I tried to include extensor action into this "Lag Swing" but it doesn't seem to help on this point.

Do you have any clue how I could fill the gap between this 1/3 stroke feeling (and result) with a full stroke feeling without messing everything up?

One more thought about the "Lag Swing":
It feels a bit "wristy" which seems far away to the TGM basics!
Is it a normal feeling or should I have frozen wrists?

Ah, one more question for you Luke: What clues make you say I'm Swinging on the Lag sequence, because by interrupting the backstroke the way I explained I thought it was like using Axe Handle procedure?

Thanks for your help I'm getting a bit struck and confused !
