Would this be a viable swing from driver to wedge?
Is the right arm swinging rather than hitting?
What are deleware's thought presently?
Where are the Tomesello tapes about right arm swinging?
I'm in favor of Tom Tomasello TGM instruction today as I was 5 years ago (actually even more so, thanks for asking). I believe Tom's description of the motion of the Right Arm in his Golf Illustrated interview (GI July 1991) is spot on (reference the last paragraph per 7-3 in TGM, The Magic of the Right Forearm). I believe I'm currently executing the right arm as Tom describes the motion in the interview with awesome results. At this point, I'm not playing much due to career issues...studying for Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) exams...on par with studying the golfing machine. However, I played a couple weekends ago...best ballstriking round. The guys that I was paired with asked me how do you play when you practice and play on a regular basis!!!

I currently use the both forearms startdown as demonstrated in the Chapter Series videos (which is Tom Tomasello demonstrating the golfing machine in front of Australia PGA pros along with Peter Croker)with all clubs Driver through 60 degree wedge. Using Ping i15 woods (X-Shafts) and Ping Z59 irons (S-Z65 shafts). The right arm motion is the same with the two forearmed startdown as it is with just using the right arm trigger.

For the weekend round two weeks ago. On the first tee, I did two practice swings and nailed the first drive...slight draw 270 yards up hill. Sweet.

I use both Swinging and Hitting patterns on the course. 85 to 90 percent swinging and 10 to 15 hitting.

If you need a copy of the Tomasello Interview please contact me (if you send me a private message include your regular email address). Between the Golf Illustrated interview and the Tomasello videos in the gallery, you can develop an excellent game.

The advantages of using the Right Arm actively with Swinging motion...I can generate both the small wheel with the line delivery path and the large wheel (softer shots) with the circle delivery path and from a physical perspective I can go from Swinging to Hitting with ease.
