I love the Waffle House! I love Brian Piccolo! I love the smell of Napalm in the morning...

I love greens in regulation within 3 inches of the hole!

God bless America, the world, and LBG golf!

I find that drawing to be very misleading as far as swing center and the left shoulder participation is conserned. The swing center should be somewhere in the back of the spine where the inclined plane intersects. The left shoulder has a rotary motion around this center axis. If the left shoulder becomes the swing center prior to impact you have a major throwaway situation. (sorry Yoda)

A rotating left shoulder that doesn't quit rotating before impact is important for proper impact lag pressure and all good things in golf.

The Left Shoulder is the Center of the Arm Swing (Left Arm-Club Radius). The Head -- or alternatively, the 'point between the shoulders' -- is the Pivot Center and thereby stabilizes the rotation of the Shoulder Turn about the spine as its axis.

It is not necessary that either Center intersect with the Inclined Plane of motion of the Sweetspot.

Alas, it was sketched hastily over breakfast at the local Cracker Barrel restaurant, and 'it is what it is'. The good news is that it helped communicate to my new student the essential Geometry of a Golf Stroke and so set the stage for a lifetime of better golf.

Hastily sketched or not, I think its a treasure!
