David Orr - The Right Forearm Takeaway

[nuke99]

Why is it more superior ? I know that some tgm "guru" made an assumption that it should be shoulder turn takeaway because it is more "powerful". Did he proof it?

I thought of this very wrong and let me try to proove it.
----------------part 1
Is it more "precise" to guide your hands to the desired plane so that your shoulder reacts to it. Or the other way round?

If u use a RFT, Your shoulder still does turn as fully but impossible to overuturn as it should only its more under control right?

How would you do a snap release with a Shoulder controlled pivot? Same question , how would you setup maximum trigger 1 2 3 using pivot controlled hand? or easier another way round? It is already proven to me, Hand controlled pivot is much more efficient, and repeatable.

-------------------- part 2
Unless the arguement is pure Force or momentum of the shoulder is greater than the hands. Now What is force? Force = 1/2 Mass x Velocity.

Mass = Affecting these are ; impact alignments(leakage and compression), Lag, stability, flat left wrist blah blah and your weight . I mean HOW exactly you put the weight of your shoulder behind the ball? You cannot because your shoulder cannot increase in weight .

Speed= from trigger delay 1 2 3. and 4. Try this .. Holding a whip use your body turn as fast as you can with the arm as far out as you can.

Then with ONLY your right arm , hand and wrist and whip it as fast as you can ... Question Which is maybe 3 x faster? can your body even create enough speed for the whip to crack alone? ... of course there are exception to different weight of the whip etc, You must have enough strength to fully control the whip. You get more speed with the arms and hands , alignments, Not the brute moving of the shoulder. You can turn them fast but fast acceleration of your shoulder and body = lost of rhythm, tempo = lost control. Thus why 5-0 to control the force and Monitor the pressure point as it provide instant feedback.


-----------------------------------

That is why the Intro and chapter 2 is very important, the role of left and right arms. endless belt, alignments. If u do not understand that 2 chapter more or less. I think More or less you cannot understand the whole TGM.

"Do not let the pivot gets in the way of delivery path/line," TGM <~~ thats why its here.

Another thing, Why is the Endless belt there? Physics. Constant belt speed and accelerating at the end! In order to control the swing , you must have Rhythm, Tempo. mean constantly accelerating.

Will it be difficult to control the swing if your pivot is swinging as fast as possible ? or let your educated hands create the speed and your body reacts to the hand?

Your conclusion? Who is teaching junk?

I don't believe in everything my dad told me.
