POWER ACCUMULATOR #1 AND HITTING

[phillygolf]

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?

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.

Thanks Yoda,

I think its great to be able have a place to share ideas and opinions and have other like minded people tell you what they think. If the discussions are all about the right info, how can we really go wrong. some may interpret it differently but through positive discussion, maybe both people change (improve) their ideas and its a win-win.

Its a totally different story to take these conversations into a lesson with a player. I love tgm for all its worth and the true teaching key is to analyze the swing with these tgm 'thoughts' and educate the golfer in front of you with lingo and moves that they can understand and learn from.

With tgm, I'm the student.
