So take it back one handed with your right hand. Now, when you get towards the top- you want that right palm facing against the (loading) motion of the clubshaft - so the right hand and forearm fully support - the stopping of the backward movement of the club. That's how you want to be if you are "swinging" the clubshaft. 2) For hitting you're loading BOTH the left arm and the clubshaft (the primary lever assembly)- against the right hand/forearm. Make sure that the right palm is facing against the (loading) motion of the "entire primary lever assembly i.e. the left arm and clubshaft. You'll notice different elbow locations based on what you're trying to stop(primary or secondary lever assembly)- which is based on what you're trying to accelerate (primary or secondary lever assembly). It's best to read or quote the whole section. In addition, I would really feel that Homer is confusing the issue here because it's really Hitting OR Swinging - that's the key. Strictly speaking a swinger could use angle of approach or arc of approach procedures- so that's not really the defining imperative that creates these conditions. An angle of approach procedure and swinging are not mutually exclusive- although you'd probably be in a psych ward - which wouldn't be bad just that when you came back from your round of golf- there would be the 12 piece bucket waiting for you. Bucket man- you out there? Last edited by Mike O : 05-10-2006 at 03:55 AM. Mike O View Public Profile Send a private message to Mike O Find all posts by Mike O
