Homer listed delayed hip action for the swingers basic pattern in the 4th 5th 6th and 7th editions, is the hitters basic pattern not a component list for the angle of approach procedure? Homer layer out the basic patterns as a starting point, a recommended example, there must be a reason why delayed hip action was chosen over standard
I don't have 6 and 7 here....but plane line is square square for both in minez.....AOA requires CLOSED...if my recollection is correct...would make sense to me anyhow...So have a look AOA in the 6th I believe REQUIRES the 10-5-E plane line stance line combo....
Not sure what edition and this was discussed out here in the day...there was a pattern that Homer had in one of the earlier editions I think 3 or 5 maybe that had the grip type as 10-2-D rather than 10-2-B....that pattern MAY HAVE BEEN the 10-5-E pattern...not sure though.
Yes, correct angle of approach uses closed stance line, ...that is why I deleted that sentence. Maybe it is not the overall length that is the important factor but rather the live tension that is more easily noticed with a restriction to a motion (which would be conducive to shorter overall swing radius), such is the case with flat left foot action, right anchor and delayed hip action. I think the key is that in 10-15-b he says "tighten the left side tension and set the stage perfectly for the hips to initiate the downstroke shoulder acceleration." Which is a very crucial moment and concept when swinging. 10-19-c drag loading wants you to launch the right shoulder down plane via the hips, and as homer states delayed hip action can set the stage perfectly for this.
Of course the application must still be there, but discussing this stuff I feel my swing has improved without even picking up a club, as homer said you can do a lot of learning in your armchair. This is the beauty of the yellow book. By simply reading and studying a subject that information is absorbed into the computer, upgrading your album instantly.

Yes sir....BUT....(you are doing a nice job in your analysis by the way)...in the "ideal" of the "uncompensated stroke" (not fully defined by Homer)...the pattern(S)ideally would be constructed so the ALL components match the procedure and the selected delivery line and release type and plane angle....from there you start building your "battleship" as opposed to your canoe. So crap matches some crap don't...but to me it would all depend on the "biggies" and follow from there...for the uncompensated...but if you wanna "do anything" obviously you can tour pros can...but since we is trying to systematize...some things is better'n other thangs....at least as far as easy of producing ball flight with an economy of motion....could be why Homer was a self described HITTING afficionado...procedure dependent on superior alignments...
