Yes. Most players wait far too long to get the Bending Right Elbow into action. They have been led astray by the instruction to "Take the Club away with your Shoulder Turn" and, by all means, "Preserve the Triangle." This procedure is nothing more than a Paw Minor Basic Stroke Start Up (10-3-H) with both arms frozen (Bent or Straight) and a Shoulder Turn Takeaway. Though the Power Package is usually later assembled, the damage has been done: The true Orbit of the Clubhead has been disrupted and, with it, the required On Plane Loading of the Clubhead Lag. Without substantial re-alignment at the Top, a true Three-Dimensional Impact with its maximum compression has become impossible. Instead, integrate the Magic of the Right Forearm into your Stroke by practicing the Bending and Straightening of the Right Elbow. To do this, use the Continuous Motion procedure of 12-5-1 (with Zero Pivot) and 12-5-2 (with Minimal Pivot). Also, per 7-3, practice the Right Forearm Takeaway from Fix (with Zero or Minimal Pivot) making sure to preserve the all-important alignments of the Flying Wedges Assembly (6-B-3-0-1). __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage!
