Purehitter is right. We've had a nice little 'time-out' -- -- but now let's all return to our seats and the original programming.
Pure- Lighten up. We like to joke around if the thread path is set on ANY topic. We come back to it in time. As for Austin- I see nothing in the clip that hasn't been covered better by Doyle, Tomasello, Lynn Blake or any of our Pro contributors. Im sure Austin followers drool over it but my own personal opinion of it is less than enthusiastic for the above reason.

What about it rocks your world?
The experience I had working with Mike over 14 years is priceless. I am sure it is the same with Lynn and his time with Homer. Mike setting the long drive record of 515 yards is unbelievable with the balls and equipment they had back in the 70’s. Mike talked about applying torque to the handle. This was his secret as Mike put it. His right hand was driving hard and fast through impact. I wish he was still around to debunk the kinetic chain theory nonsense I hear on another forum. I say it is the fall of Rome over there so to speak. I even hear Caésar is now saying you don’t have to point at the plane lines anymore on the back swing. Tour pros don’t he says. He even put up an audio file about it. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I know Homer would not want to hear that.

Pure would not Austin still have snapped the kinetic chain...whatever that is
His right hand may have been driving/accelerating baton twirling but would not the left arm slow down at release?
How does the Caesar of Rome snap his kinetic chain?

The Caésar of Burning Rome would have us believe the rock gets thrown because the hands slow down.
I believe the rock gets thrown because we let it go.
What causes the hands to slow is an inability of the human motor to generate the required force. The required force (to the keep the hands moving fast) as the club releases, begins to increase. The club is pushing back on the hands.
Some golfers foolishly follow their instructors' advice and intentionally try to slow their hands. I'm saying the dynamics are such that hand slowing can/does occur and that is does not mean momentum is being transferred in the convention (impact) sense. It simply means there's not enough horsepower available to keep them moving at the same speed. The cg of the club has moved away the center of rotation and therefore inertia has increases... more torque is needed... more horsepower.
