You're not a hitter.

You cock both wrists. You don't try to roll through impact? But does your Clubface Roll?
Do you hinge a lever through impact? I don't know. Maybe sometimes?

You're a normal golfer.

I don't mean to be short.

The difference between a Hitter and Swinger is that a Hitter uses Muscular effort of Right Arm Thrust to push the Levers Through impact. The Swinger allows CF to do so.

Sorry, but I don't know too much of the TGM lexicon, only some.

I don't roll the clubface through impact.

I'm pretty sure I had a grip that could be described by 10-2-B.

I really feel like I was hitting, and using a lot of right arm. But, I guess I wanted to know why, if I was trying to hit, was I struggling with my iron game, and to a lesser extent, my chipping, but not my wood game or my pitching? Were some components askew?

I know I used a fairly flat shoulder and hip turn, I felt my weight was transferring to my right side on the backswing and back to the left side on the downswing, and that my head wasn't moving around too much.

Video is worth a thousand words
I would recommend spending some time in the "Gallery" watching the videos. They will provide some great visual information that will help make more of an impact on your learning. You can start at any one of them. The more you watch the more all this will begin to sink in and things will make more sence. Take your time and let your incubator soak it all in....you will be in for an amazing, fog lifting experience, trust me.

Swing = pulling the club

Hitting = pushing the club

that's it.

I'm fairly new to TGM but this post confuses me- I thought TGM was suppose to be difficult to understand? Are you sure you are not missing something here- or could it be that you are a Jedi Knight?

Did you push or pull the chair you tossed on the court?

I suppose it doesn't matter as long as you maintained a flat left wrist, lag pressure point and had a straight plane line.

Bucket, what if I'm pulling with my body and pushing (somewhat unconsiously) with my right arm about halfway down?

According to some you are just trying to get the handle in the right location . . . Do what works.
