[O.B.Left]

Ah crap I was trying to stick to geometry and hit some shots with the geometry of the circle model, but since we're here ......lets talk mechanics , alignments ....maybe even centres if you want to.

K, so see how the shoulders in the drawing above move in a circular manner? If you drew a little circle with " a point between the shoulders " as the centre ... the centre of the shoulders / pivot ..... wouldnt it look like a little fly wheel? If you grabbed ahold of the right shoulder and spun it down plane wouldnt that be akin to Yoda's " spin , spin spin the flywheel"?

Lemme try drawing this.... First with the geometry of the circle model , 2D then with a more human 3D stick man from the down the line. When we go 3D we'll employ Homers Turned Shoulder Plane and a Standard Shoulder Turn ..... flat back and down plane with the Right Shoulder. The Right Shoulder takes the Hands , the #3pp the club downplane in Startdown.



Here's a Yoda post that touches upon this co-ordinated pivot leads the arms downplane in startdown deal. There are others.

THE FLAIL

2-K GENERATION OF ANGULAR MOTION Angular Motion is the result of at least two divergent forces. Such as, -A. Centripetal Force (the Lever Assemblies 6-A) diverting Linear Force (Right Arm Thrust 6-B-1) into a rotating motion (Hitting 10-19-A). Or – B. Turning its axis (the Body 2-M-4) to spin a flywheel – the Lever Assemblies (Swinging 10-19-C).

FROM THE TOP

8-7 SECTION 7 – START DOWN Strictly speaking, the next six Sections are all just divisions of the Downstroke for pinpointing interim locations. This Section starts with the initial move toward Impact – the period of Shoulder Acceleration (or its equivalent – 2-H) and continues until the motion settles into its Delivery Line Path (7-23).

ANGULAR MOTION

2-H SHOULDER MOTIONS

.............

“On Plane” Right Shoulder Motion is possible only by titling its axis – the spine. See 7-14. In this area the Left Shoulder is helpless. The geometry of Shoulder Control deals only with Right Shoulder, for there are no guide lines for Left Shoulder control of the Right Shoulder. Therefore, variations in Right Shoulder location will vary the Left Shoulder location at Impact and, consequently, the Low Point location as well as the Angle of Approach (2-N).
