I hear ya, though I wouldn't classify it as a Zing! To me, that would imply that I was firing an arrow- attacking with some passionate emotion. Actually the intent was quite the opposite in that regard . My emotional response to the original question was something like "OH OH - Here we go!" as the question seems to tee up the ball for a Zing! I thought the Pivot Controlled Hands was one of the most non-emotional of all the possible answers. A) It's in the book, B) It is an option, a choice and C) based on the article which was focused on body positions and motion with little to any discussion regarding - clubshaft, clubhead, clubface -it appeared to me to be just a factual statement.

That said, the second level of analysis regarding how much a Zing! it was, would depend on how you defined Pivot Controlled Hands and how much negativity you attached to the concept.

If you were Homer Kelley and you wanted the answer to have NO ZING at all, then you might say that the purpose and intent of the Golfing Machine book was to categorize any and all golf movements. Therefore the answer to the question would be "Not only is there "any" basis in TGM for that swing - but actually there is "every" basis for that Swing in TGM."
