I've been doing what you suggested but think I'm more confused than ever <g>. What does "paddlewheel action" actually mean?
[Fortunately, over the winter, I converted the Book to HTML, for my personal use -- and makes quoting so easy]
E.g. 2-G
These motions also duplicate the motions of the paddles of a paddlewheel rotating around an axis vertical to one of the three Basic Planes. And an equivalent term could be "Clubface Paddlewheel Action" executed as a Left Wrist Paddlewheel Motion.
E.g. 6-B-1-0
This results in a smooth, even Thrust for acceleration of the Lever Assemblies (6-A-2) from an otherwise unruly force. Active or Passive, the straightening Right Elbow with its Paddlewheel Action, powers, guides and regulates the #3 Accumulator Motion (7-1 but not the actual Clubface aligning (1-F). Study (2-M), (7-11) and Component 19.
E.g. 7-18
The Paddlewheel Action of the straightening Right Elbow (10-10-C) initiates and sustains the #3 Accumulator Hand Motion (4-D-0) until the Both-Arms-Straight and Zero Accumulator #3 position of Full Extension - but, of course, under the guidance of the Flat, Vertical Left Wrist Hinge Action (2-G).
E.g. 10-2-D
The palm of the Right Hand moves toward Impact exactly like a paddle-wheel rotating On Plane - no separate Rolling Motion until after Impact. See (10-10-C).
E.g. 10-10-C
This is identical to the paddle-Wheel motion of the straightening Right Arm but is a superior procedure (1-F).
E.g. 10-19-0
Hitters using Horizontal Hinging must consciously resist the tendency of Right Arm Paddlewheel Action toward Angled Hinging.
E.g. 10-24-E
The Paddlewheel Action of Angled Hinging (10-10-C) or the Throw Out Action of Accumulator #3 (6-B-3-0), if unhampered, will whip the Hands and the Clubface into impact alignment per (7-23).
E.g. Glossary
FLAT AND VERTICAL FLAT LEFT WRIST Example - Left hand Karate chop.
Mechanical - The Paddlewheel blade relationships as vertical to its axis of rotation and vertical to its plane of rotation.
Golf - Positioning the Left Wrist to be vertical to its Left Shoulder Axis and to its Associated Plane during Impact.
E.g. Index
Paddlewheel (10-10-C)
Even with all my years in the Navy, I've never seen a paddle wheel -- and can think of nothing that it might do that would illustrate an action in the golf swing. Please explain.
When in a state of confusion regarding a word like Paddlewheel...one should seek a dictionary or do a google search...
Then go back to the sections on left wrist motion, angled hinge action and right arm motion...then try to execute a hitters motion in regards to those sections with the picture of the paddle wheel. I believe a light bulb might go off...
but not the actual Clubface aligning (1-F). Study (2-M), (7-11) and Component 19.
