Great post.
Which to learn first? Hitting or swinging?
I think the standard answer is both. You won’t fully understand one without the other.
The #3 pressure point directly opposed to the primary lever assembly vs. #3 pressure point directly opposed to the secondary lever assembly. Standard wrist action takeaway vs. Single wrist action takeaway? Differing elbow locations? How could you know one without knowing the other.
Horizontal vs. Angled Hinging. How can one fully understand sequenced release vs. simultaneous release without understanding both?
Both, hitting and swinging have a pulling feel at startdown.
You start by Switting. Your first swing is a mixture of both. And many more swings after that one. To know each component, you need to know their differences. To know compatibility of components, one must understand why component combinations are incompatible. Cause-effect.
I have been Swinging on Acquired and Full motion, and Hitting on short strokes and putting. A great combination.

You've learned your lessons well, Daryl. Thank you for sharing with others the fruits of your labor.
yoda knows that the genius of the hitting technique allows for the fundamental impulse of steering and hitting at the ball to be harnessed into an uncompensated golf stroke. "steering" the clubhead STRAIGHT on the angle of approach and by the right forearm and "hitting" by the right tricep pushing through impact make this possible.
since most right-handed golfers are right-handed and the function of the right forearm is the second secret of golf (it regulates clubshaft control directly and cluhead control indirectly) the steering and hitting impulse allows for these geometrical controls along with powering the stroke all by the right arm.
what a genius you are homer kelley !!!! how could only one person write that book and not an entire team of geniuses ?
wait, before i go on gushing over homer , he could be crticized ((he seems to be under fire a lot these days by the "objective truth"seekers( i don't think they would find this phrase redundant since they are so committed to the truth )) for not having found a way to control the clubface from the right side.
but i ask you; should homer kelley be criticized for the golfer having two arms and two wrists ?
happy new year everyone,
your comrade in arms
p.s. yoda, if you do not kick me off the site after three posts i would like to thank you , as this happened to me recently on a teaching pro fansite. is that a record?
