Daryl, I have found your posts not only to be more and more condescending but GROSSLY INACCURATE AND MISREPRESENTATIVE OF THE BOOK AND OF HOMERS HARD WORK. Your commentary seems to get more personal with me, I'm not sure if it's because I try to clarify all of your miscommunications and misconceptions. Ever since Lynn has taken a less active role on the forum, it appears that a lot of members are under the FALSE IMPRESSION that you are the final authority on the golfing machine. I believe it is important to not leave members with the notion that all of these miscommunications and misconceptions on your part are accurate representations of the work of homer kelley. In the future it would help all of us if you would reference in quotes relevant passages of the book to support your interpretations or ideas. If you happen to disagree with the book flatly, that's fine. Just present your evidence against the passages you disagree with in a logical, scientific manner. You are PARADING around this site mimicking homer's writing style and using reference numbers when half the time you are just making stuff up. STOP DOING THAT.

Bro I don’t care about your poo or doo… or the tv guys…
NO DARYL, IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND, let me clear things up for you…

First off I will say this one is a typo, give you the benefit of the doubt that you would actually think the word proportion makes any sense there. The correct quote is ” no PORTION of the lever assembly…”
NOT proportion….
Also this quote is completely unrelated to the topic…
You claim that the still picture from my video is not showing a snap release here:

You can swing however you want. But this isn't a Snap Release.

You were referring to these pictures:

( the first one is Sergio Garcia, the second ones are me with slightly more trigger delay than Sergio while both still arriving at a flat left wrist at impact with the clubshaft pointed at the left shoulder)
Next you say this:

Ocean – Water.
Desert - Sand
Elbow Plane - Random Sweep Release

SORRY BUT THIS IS ALL COMPLETELY WRONG and once again you mimic homer’s writing style but unfortunately not his intellect. Where in the book does it say you can’t have a snap release on the elbow plane?
LET ME CLEAR THINGS UP FOR YOU DARYL
THERE IS IN FACT NO PASSAGE IN THE BOOK THAT PAIRS THE ELBOW PLANE WITH A RANDOM SWEEP RELEASE. You must be reading ‘the daryl machine’ that’s a different book…
Delivery path and release type are in fact NOT PAIRED
RELEASE TYPE AND RELEASE POINT IN FACT ARE paired here(from summary of ch.10):

POWER PACKAGE RELEASE
Release Type Release Point
Des.
A Non-automatic- Full Sweep
B Non-automatic Random-Sweep
C Automatic Random- Sweep
D Non-automatic- Snap
E Automatic - Snap
F Automatic - Flip
|
This above lists the different release types and release points. NOWHERE IN THE BOOK DOES HOMER PAIR RELEASE POINTS WITH PLANE ANGLE, OR DELIVERY PATHS WITH RELEASE TYPES, PERIOD. End of story. Why would he it makes zero sense… why would the delivery path determine the release type?
Could I use a straight line delivery path with a full sweep release? ABSOLUTELY, why not? The line of the hands are not changing, I can uncock the wrist, release the accumulators straight from the top on any plane angle. Use any release type that pairs with its release point aka automatic snap, non-automatic snap, non-automatic full sweep, automatic random sweep, non-automatic random sweep. You can use straight line delivery path with any of these. You could also use an angled line delivery path with any of these.
Looks like there are choices, huh weird, I never would have thought that tgm had options!?!?!?!?!crazy!!!
You claim that an elbow plane snap release is not possible here:

You can get close. But Close isn't the same thing

sorry you are wrong.
MAYBE YOU WERE CONFUSED BY THE PORTION I BOLDED OF THIS PASSAGE:

Quote:

10-6-A. ELBOW Where the Right Elbow touches the waist is the reference
point used for this Plane Angle. It is the flattest normal Plane
that will still allow the Right Forearm to be On Plane during Impact.
This produces a very flat Angle of Attack (2-E) with reduced Backspin
and should be avoided for Short Shots unless it is also part of your Full
Stroke Pattern. The Elbow Plane allows maximum #3 Accumulator requiring
earlier Release per 6-N-0. This procedure is executed by the
Right Forearm per 7-3 and 1O-6-B and Elbow Location per 6-B-3-0-1.

I take it you assumed because it says it requires an earlier release you assumed it meant earlier than snap, and also assumed earlier release was referring to random sweep and only random sweep? In fact it does not say that at all and you are doing A LOT of assuming and once again you are completely incorrect and people think you know what you’re talking about. YOU DON’T
Because of the greater angle of the #3 accumulator, The clubhead covers more area in space as you turn and roll the left hand this is why you must release sooner than a more upright plane angle. To see this in action, Set your hands flat level and vertical and hold the club in the fingers of the left hand as normal, notice the angle between the left arm and clubshaft, this is the #3 accumulator. Keeping your hand in the same place and turn and roll it. Notice how the clubhead moves in space yet the wrist stays in one place, how far it moves in space is determined by this angle. Now grip the club in the palm so the club sits at a plane that is in-line with the left arm, again turn and roll the left wrist in place notice how the clubhead doesnt move in space, it doesn’t cover as much space because the angle is less, in this case it is zero, and therefore can be released later because it has less space to cover as its released.
HOWEVER this does not mean that because the release on the elbow plane is earlier than the turned shoulder plane, that the lag pressure point cannot be “driven through a snap release as if there were to be no release at all” AKA automatic snap release. YOU ABSOLUTELY can have a snap release on the elbow plane or a sweep or whatever you want. It in fact IS A CHOICE and is NOT DETERMINED by other components
Did you think Hogan was on the turned shoulder with his automatic snap release? How about Sergio? They aren’t THEY ARE IN FACT ON THE ELBOW PLANE WITH A SNAP RELEASE
Do you think you can’t sweep release on a turning shoulder plane? The angle at which the club is moving has no relation to the release point. You can use any angle, any release point. Why couldn’t you? Show me in the book where it says that an elbow plane cannot have a snap release show me where they are paired, here’s a clue. THEY AREN’T

10-24-E. AUTOMATIC SNAP RELEASE This procedure drives the
Lag Pressure Point through a Snap Release (6-N-O) as if there were to be
no Release at all…

Where is the part about plane angle? Oh that’s right, it’s not there!
this passage is for you

Don’t even start me on the rest of your posts. They are minefields of inaccuracies and misrepresentations.
OH I LOVE THIS! YOU’RE MAKING VIDEOS! THE DARYL MACHINE!

Then, "Low Point" video, then "Chapter Two", then "Hinging", then "Motion Curriculum", then "Geometry of the Circle".
Its a great video. I actually show you how to "Trace the Plane Line" and what it can do for you. Its fascinating. It will be the first ever video of its kind.

Yikes…..
