As Lynn noted in 1970 (that's what the time stamp says above the caption): The bottom line is that, as usual, Homer said exactly what he meant in termsthat were unmistakably clear. Through Impact, your Left Wrist must be Flat,Level and Vertical, and your Right Wrist must be Bent, Level andVertical. The best way to achieve this Ideal Impact Alignment is topermit during the Stroke only Left Wrist Vertical and RotationalMotions and Right Wrist Rotational Motions. And the way youdo that is to Lock your Left Wrist in its Flat Condition and Freezeyour Right Wrist into its Bent and Level condition early in theStroke and then maintain those conditions until the end of the Follow-Through. Interestingly, I have thus far not mentioned Grip Pressure. That isbecause, within limits, Gripping ‘light’ or ‘tight’ is the player’s option. Whatmatters is that the essential Wrist Conditions be maintained throughout theStroke. And that requires a highly developed kinesthetic sense of WristAlignments, not necessarily a tight Grip. That said, the Hands are best viewed as strong, Educated Clamps attaching theClub to the Arms. Per 1-L #3, there should be “no wobble in the Clubshaftattachment.” The player with Uneducated Hands might do well with a lighter GripPressure because he may then be less likely to ‘horse’ the Club out of thecorrect alignments that Centrifugal Force is trying its best to produce. The skilled player, on the other hand, can use the tighter Grip Pressureto give his Educated Hands a more complete control of the Clubthroughout the Stroke. The Tight Grip is especially effective as resistanceagainst the terrific forces of Impact Deceleration. Remember, per IsaacNewton’s Third Law (2-C-0), the Ball hits the Club just as hard as the Clubhits the Ball. Said another way, and summing up this entire discussion… Impact is a place for Science, not “Seems as ifs.” It is great to hang with thoughtful, perceptive people! For those interested in this # 1 priority before Basic Motion, imo, search "frozen!" Holla at your boyyyyyyy! __________________ HP, grant me the serenity to accept what I cannot change, the courage to change what I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
