10-C-3 Push

There is a big difference between a 10-3-A and a 10-3-C motion....I really don't see a need for the 10-3-C motion other than putting or chipping with a putting stroke.


DG

Homer Kelley agreed with DG that the Push Basic Stroke should be limited to the very short shots, the Chips and Putts. And because the Hands are kept between the Right Elbow and the Ball as the Elbow moves on that line, he was adamant that beginning golfers avoid it. He felt it encouraged Steering (3-F-7-A) and made learning the proper Fanning Motion of the Right Forearm in the longer shots much more difficult to learn (psychologically if for no other reason).

One important point: Though the Right Elbow may appear to Fly in the Push Basic Stroke -- especially if the Basic Motion is extended to Acquired and Total Motion (12-5-1/2/3) -- there is no actual Flying Elbow as long as the Flying Wedges Assembly (6-B-3-0-1) maintains its Impact Fix alignments. Only if the Right Wrist Bend were increased from its Impact Fix degree of Bend could the Right Elbow actually be said to Fly.
