Yoda - Preach it
In some churches you might hear "Preach it brother Lynn" after a sermon like that video!

Thanks for this thread.

jim,

From my experiences with that damn tac-tic you need to bend a good 10 degrees before it will click. Not to say I don't believe you can keep a flat left wrist whilst swiveling dramatically. I just don't know that the tac-tic is the ultimate test.

When you "double loop" the loop it becomes EXTREMELY SENSITIVE and will click ever so slightest amount of bend.

I'm not advocating to swing with a flat left wrist throughout the entire swing as i feel it did create some shoulder issues for me a little. However i can still do it w/o much issue.

How does one stop swivelling during impact?

There is a video on Peter Croker's site in which someone swings a golfer's flail, 2k-4 and 2k-5. The person swinging the flail states that if the club is not swung properly, the swing will get "lumpy". Although the instructor doesn't use the term swivel,I believe that "lumpy" referred to a lack of swivel. Lately, I find that executing the golfer's flail, taking out the lump, results in better rotation. Nevertheless, I am probably initiating the swivel during impact.

Yes you are. It's surprising how much golfers know that isn't true.

KEEP THE LEFT WRIST VERTICAL TO THE HORIZONTAL PLANE WHILE YOU TRACE THE PLANE LINE WITH THE RIGHT FOREARM PAST LOW POINT. Do not roll the left arm independent of the upper torso until after follow-through.

Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.00 (my weird sense of humor)

jim,

I must have managed to get a manufacturer defect or something. Double loop is still yielding crappy results.

Some work better than others. I have noticed that the quality has gone down as of late. When brian m gave me one the first time i went to see him it was very well made.

I have had a few friends buy them since then and they are more flimsy. Try a credit card under your watch.

Most bad players don't Swivel enough and most good players

Swivel too much, even coming in too steep they can Swivel

their way out without any trace of a chicken wing or LW

breakdown.

Most teachers spend so much time on the range demonstrating

Hinge Action, especially the Horizontal variety and Swivelling

that they themselves become the victims of too much of a good

thing.

The subject here under discussion is one of the reasons

TGM sank into obscurity in the eighties while others became

very, very wealthy selling a less extreme Swivel, after a less

Horizontal Hinge.

Please dont head down that road again!.
