[Yoda]

I was lucky enough to receive one of the MMOC cd's and it is refreshing to know that Lynn has not changed his TGM approach to teaching the golf swing.
VJ demonstates the basic motion but only with a push hitting action - Can basic motion be done as both a hit and a swing? The motion is so short I am not sure if it comes into play.

Thanks for your comments, mb. As always, I appreciate them!

That said, I disagree that V.J.'s Basic Motion action is a Push Basic Stroke. Personally, I think he demonstrates both the Hitting and Swinging strokes with a Fanning Right Elbow -- which suggests, at a minimum, a Punch Basic Stroke -- and this negates the Push Basic Stroke. It cannot be both.

I think that if you saw a Stroke with the Right Elbow kept 'up and out' -- versus 'at the side' or 'down in front' -- and with the Hands kept between the Elbow and the Ball, you would see a tremendous difference.
