[O.B.Left]

So when Mr. Williams says to just turn your body through his "non-arm, non-vertical, body only swing," does he really mean that or is he doing something else that his engineering training simply does not allow him to articulate without reference to a calculator or slide rule? Every gift has its limits and genius is notoriously short-winded. (Yes, that is why I ask so many dumb questions!)

Hey there ict, welcome.

The only video of his Ive ever seen is the one right here in post 1, where he alludes to but doenst show a pure body power only shot, I think. If I understand your question correctly.

I've been waiting for a guy like you around here, Ict! You see, I mostly do stupid answers. We could really go places together, you and I!. Keep em coming.

PS I dont think Ive ever seen a body only powered full swing. My daughter when she was about 4 years old came the closest maybe. But even she raised that plastic club up some with her arms. Kind of. You could do it with a short shot. When putting its pretty common to move the shoulders only for instance. Chipping is maybe Arms only most times. Arnie used to use a Hands only putting style. If you have the book, read up on the Minor Basic Strokes and the Major Basic Strokes and there differences. His Taly is great but Id say he's attributing what we'd refer to as Minor Basic Strokes, (for short shots only) to full powered shots where Zone 1, (the Body) , Zone 2 ( Arms) and Zone 3 ( Hands) all get involved. Ah crap I was trying to keep this "short winded" and screwed up.
