When swinging think right side, not right arm. When I'm hitting I actually focus on straightening the right arm into impact. When I'm swining I just think of firing the right shoulder into impact while rotating the left arm. 6B Mike's explanation is right on. I never think of pulling, I'm pushing the right side, which in essence forces the left side to pull.

the right arm is the true secret to playing great golf.once you understand and can see how it works the whole swing is simple.hitting or swinging you have to understand the right arm.mr.kelly said once you understand ,then this would be the magic of the right arm.bending and straighting the right arm cocks and uncocks the wrist.so if you do not feel the right arm staighten you are not uncocking the hands.
a very good drill to monitor this is to make slomotion swings so you can see delivery line prep,the roll and the uncocking as the right arm straightens.this is all i think of in my swing and when you feel the hands uncocking you will get some serious comression.monitor the hands watch what happens when the right arm begins to straighten.you have to do this drill as slow as you can.hope this helps everyone,i know it has helped me

Nice drill- I might be prejudiced about this one but Delivery Line Prep and Roll changed everything about the left arm for me. Not many golfers outside of LBG or TGM understand how the clubface 'rolls' into impact. If it didn't we would be striking the ball with the clubhead sole.

Pull, roll and catch rain- swinger's hand action on the downswing.

you can still be swinging and have right arm participation the right arm always strives to straighten.if it doesnt straight in the downstroke you would hit it dead right.if you do the drill i stated above and do it properly then you will see what i am talking about.watch th hogan home movie of mr hogan swinging in slow motion.this is what i am refering too.watching mr.hogan doing this helped me more trhan anything i have ever done.i feel like it is the best way to monitor your hands while still making a full swing.obviously it worked for the best ball striker of all time,so maybe a few of us could benefit also

John,

Can't thank you enough for contributing here. This is golden.

I've heard from a lot of players outside of the LBG community that you are one of the best ballstrikers on tour.

Lynn commented to me recently that he was very impressed with your ballstriking abilities. The drill you've put up is a MUST do.

Thank You - Can't wait to get those videos up.

Bagger

Watching Hogan do the slo mo in real time is OUTSTANDING. You really get to see his Educated Hands perform magic. I watch it a lot and always discover something new.

The right forearm, the Flying Wedges, Delivery Line Prep and Roll to low point, loud impact - "these are a few of my favorte things."

I hear Coltrane in the back ground.

back to the egg for sleep. 6b

I would like to call that 'hit with the second loop'.

Well.... I don't see the loop. It rolls on a straight Plane Line.

But if it works....
