"I'm Swing in My Brain"

I'm just curious to see if my interpretation of "pulling" vs "swinging" the left arm maybe faulty, or my swing/procedure is faulty.
After the Pivot has Loaded PP#4 (6-B-4-0, 7-12), the Thrust of the On Plane (2-H) Downstroke Right Shoulder Turn will Blast the Inert Left Arm (sounds better than dead IMO) into Release (2-M-4) once it has reached its maximum speed (10-20-C, 6-M-1). But the Blast off is not a vicious action, it just requires the Pivot to lead the Arms with a gentle turn to avoid Over Loading and Over Acceleration (6-D-2) and Running out of Right Arm. The Fourth Accumulator is RAdius Power, not Velocity Power (6-B-20) The Left Arm should not Drive itself unless using Pull Minor Basic Stroke (10-3-D). So if the Pivot doesn't Load #4 and the left Arm Swings independent of the Pivot, you have missed the Train.

However, the difference between Feel and Real are like the difference between ice hockey and tennis. Using a Hand Control Pivot (5-0) can provide the missing link, where the Pivot respondes to the Hands. You may have a PP#4 and just not realize it, because your Hands are so well Educated or you are trying to Educate them.

Still alot of meat on this bone.

I'm saving this post to my TGM file. A world class post from a world class teacher. Thanks Drew.

So much to think about here, concise though it is.

" A gentle turn" can save the novice experimenting with "the on plane right shoulder" much time and grief.

The single word "train" is a distillation of an immense and perhaps somewhat controversial concept.

"Feel and real" can explain why some of the greats, Sam Snead for instance felt like they did pull their left arms down in a "ring the bell" manner.

Great, great stuff
