[O.B.Left]

Sticking with mechanics , physics for a moment (and Im way out my league here and want to get out of here asap) ;

Websters dictionary definition:




A portion of Lynns post above :



A photo of a flywheel :




So that little wheel inside a wheel drawing.... which I theorized to look like a flyweel , needs clarification for relevance to Homers concepts about the role of the pivot in the Startdown (swingers and 4B Hitters startdown IMO, drive loading being a different deal).

Namely:

-the pivot is the flywheel.
-the pivot is heavy. Heavier than the arms . As if the flywheel in the geometry drawing is made of heavy brass.
-the pivots rotation pulls the arms in startdown , leads the hands (not the arms) down plane given that the right shoulder and the hands lie on the inclined plane together if only momentarily. Neither arm is on plane at top however.
- mechanically a heavy flywheel steadies the rate of acceleration , smooths out any oscillations about the "shaft " or rotor. The pivot aka "golfs basic rotary motion". The heavy flywheel steadies the pivots rate of acceleration .
- once set in motion , the hands and club become gyroscopic in nature . Spinning about the axis of rotation , the pivot centre.
-gyroscopic motion when present resists plane shifts . But plane shifts are possible through manipulations in the arms relationship to the pivot.... "vertical drop" prior to spinning the flywheel.
-the gyroscopic motion continues until the arms are thrown off by the slowing pivot, "momentum transfer" from the pivot to the arms. At which point the Primary Lever, the left arm and club begin to SWING about their own centre , the left shoulder, which in the both human golfer and the 2d model above is moving.
-pulling by the arms from top ruins the whole thing. Aka "hitting from the top".
-over acceleration of the pivot from top is defined as commencing at an RPM which cant be maintained . Over acceleration by definition implies deceleration of the pivot , pre mature deceleration , IMO. EArly throw off .

Bear, anybody please clean this up..... whatcha think.

Why did Homer talk of flywheels? Did it , to his mind , imply a relationship between body and arms in terms of their co-ordinated motion? Rotors and blades the rotor having a flywheel? Does this relate to his concept of Rhythm?

Does this relate to "effortless power" ?

IMO the flywheel conceptually implies that you : "spin , spin, spin the (heavy, smoothly accelerating, well centred) flywheel (pivot). But, I could be wrong.
