How soon should the club face be looking at the ball during the down swing???.................
But for a swinger, clubface moves down plane until release, like a karete chop motion with left hand. When the face will square will depend on the release type you're using.
Zilla,
Could you expand on this a bit? RELEASE MONTIONS PER 4-D-0 refers to the Release of Accumulators #2 and #3. Two separate motions Wrist Motion and Hand Motion.
Let us assume since we are in the Swinging forum we are talking Sequenced Release. Per 2-P THE WRISTCOCK is a CLUBHEAD motion - not a CLUBFACE motion. It has nothing to do with Clubface alignment at impact - that is a function of the Hands, executing the Clubface motion - Accumulator #3 per 4-D-0. AND the Hitter concentrates on HAND motion and the Swinger concentrates on WRIST motion.
So the Swinger is concentrating on UNCOCKING and FULL LEVER EXTENSION, which brings us back to 2-P: So for maximum Power at any Clubhead Speed, the Ball must be struck before Full Extension. AND per 2-P Centrifugal Force ALONE Ucocks the Swinger's Wrists . . .
So now, back to the Karate Chop. Where are you aiming your Chop? And are you executing your chop with a soft flexible left wrist or are you holding the chop (Cocked Condition of the Wrist)?
I have been working on feeling as if my Left Wrist (#2) is Uncocking strongly downward whle the Hand is still turned to the face of the Plane. I trust the Downward motion to "run into" the rotation of the body. Then allow CF and the turning to actuate #3 and square the Clubface to the ball via the selected Hinge Motion.
