I applaud that approach as a means of converting correct Golf Stroke Mechanics into describable sensations. And the 'Wheel Rim' Swinging Hands Image is fine for Swinging. However... When you Hit, you Drive! You don't Swing your Right Hand around a 'Hub.' you Thrust it in a straight line! And for Straightaway Flight with your Middle and Short Irons, the Ball is best positioned well up the Plane from Low Point. That means 'Good-bye' thin divots and 'Hello' serious turf! Driving the Lag into the Ground -- Hitting or Swinging -- and watching the Turf fly and the Ball streak for the Flag is fun. A greenskeeper's worst nightmare, of course, but fun! Best of all -- especially with the Middle and Short Irons and with the Ball positioned for Straightaway Flight, i.e., no Aiming Point Manipulation -- it is geometrically correct. __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage!
