Man , thats beautiful footage. Flywheel and one moving in sync with the arm swing. But what the heck does that mean mechanically? We can see it , feel it like MJ says but what is it about those swings that we are so attracted to. Balance, grace , power etc etc . Yes but consider what Homer meant by Rhythm and how the pivot and the arms must move in sync to ensure Rhythm.


Homers concept of Rhythm requires the clubhead , clubshaft , hands , arms to moving as a unit , in line , with a constant RPM about its centre albeit with different surface speeds depending upon how far away they are from the centre. Break the left wrist and break the Rhythm .

I have this sneaking suspicion that when good golfers hit a bad shot its a Rhythm problem , but born out of a mis matched Pivot and Primary Lever rate of rotation. Tension can do it . Over acceleration , quitting.

I do not understand why HK didn't include Rhythm as the 4th Imperative. There are many good ball strikers who bob and/or sway, but none without Rhythm.
