[whip]

thank you for your input and your praise daryl but i think you are misrepresenting homers work with some statements. as i said, the second 'hit' is not my preferred method, my arm bends slightly at top and my elbow is probably still nearly in pitch but that is as hit as i get for now, don't wanna confuse the machine too much. I think you're really splitting hairs with the amount of right wrist bend both pictures are essentially dead flat left wrist. also you pointed out that my 'lowpoint' is at left foot not at left shoulder(outside low point) well actually that is just because thats the only point u can pause the video, if you could frame by frame it and go back one you will see a dead straight line down from the left shoulder, perfect geometry. if anything, i see a slight blend of twist and bump instead of bump then twist with the hips. But truly this is my motion, if i make that swing exactly as it is consistently scores will be low. Compare that swing to any pga tour player and i guarantee your gonna find stuff more wrong with most of their swings, except for hogan or nicklaus of course. better yet compare this swing to diane in ch. 8, you won't find anything different. draw a line from the clubhead to the left shoulder in the hit and its a dead straight line, if the wrist was literally flat like against a book, it would actually be slightly arched.

what i like most about these swings is the foot work, both impacts my feet are flat on the ground but also working, rolling not just dead. this took me two years of hitting balls under gregs supervision with bag stands on my feet, feet together or just focusing on their proper action. this is the first thing we worked on and for a reason it's the foundation for the whole swingmachine literally. my swing before TGM, NOTHING REMOTELY CLOSE feet jumping around, head dropping, swaying, bent left arm, bent left wrist, closed clubface wild hips, etc it was a nightmare i duck hooked every shot aimed 40 yards right

I have to setup at impact fix, it just doesnt feel comfortable gripping and then stepping in.

"Homer Kelly said that as the ball is played aft in your stance, that you use less Right Wrist Bend. And, the farther forward the ball is played, your Right Wrist Bend is Greater." --- WHAT PAGE IS THAT ON????? thats not in the book nor does it make sense. please don't state that homer said something in the book if it's not in there. wherever the ball is played that shaft lean will be different but the right wrist bend will not change as it cannot unless it is altering the left wrist which u should not if u want proper geometry. It's just like a pendulum or clock the left arm inline with the clubshaft swings down from its center point as one long lever once the left wrist is uncocked, as you can see in the first picture which was stopped just after low point the left arm and clubshaft are dead in line and on their way up slightly as they should be. scores are low and creeping lower but now its raining allllll the time

playing the ball at low point with forward lean is incorrect geometry, also ball location should not affect your plane angle unless you are off plane or changing angle during release and impact
