Our friend Jerry worked basic motion for a full winter while studying and watching Alignment Golf. It was HUGE.
Brian Gay did nothing but basic motion during his injury recuperation while working with YODA. It was HUGE.
This winter you will be able to work basic motion while watching Alignment Golf I and Alignment Golf II. I expect it will do wonders for you as well!

Sounds promising.
By the way: A lot of great stuff in your archives.

Thanks Air... the bulk of it comes from the guys that post right here!

Air,
Basic motion is like beginning to learn to walk or to swim or to ride a bike. It is probably the single most important drill you can do to arrive at striking a ball in sweet spot and getting to the point that you can count on it. Yoda says 2 feet back and 2 feet forward. 4 feet. No more than that. Anything more will just put off your improvement for a longer time.
Last winter in the basement I would do 5 sets of 20 and be lucky to come up with 10 that felt the way I wanted them to.
BE PATIENT.
Basic motion is the foundation of all things good in golf.

I realize that the basic motion is the stepping stone to the G.O.L.F swing, but I'm unsure how it in itself stops someone from coming OTT. There must be some missing links. I'm afraid that a whole winter only with basic motion in itself doesn't get rid of OTT. But who knows...? (Actually I know who knows..)

Basic Motion alone, in my opinion, will teach you how to deliver the power package through the ball on the intended line. It is a godsend.
After you have become very comfortable with basic motion you can move onto Acquired Motion. I firmly believe you will begin to understand the proper alignments to deliver the power package in such away as to not do that OTT maneuver.

I hope you are right. It would certainly have been easier if I started with golf now, but I have 21 years of OTT demons to overcome...
