You've heard all this before Im sure, but..... 12-3 omitted Zone 1 as it assumed the Hands to control the Pivot but that didnt imply anything contrary to 6-M-1 DOWNSTROKE SEQUENCE which quite clearly states:

"Feet, or the employed component nearest to the feet, in the following order: Knees, Hips, Shoulders, Arms, Right Elbow, Left Wrist Cock and/or Left Hand Rotation."

If that isnt enough see: 7-17. FOOT ACTION. " Halting the Backstroke motion with the Feet and letting this same tension pull the Downstroke Through Impact is "Swinging from the Feet" and gives the stroke maximum Swing Radius."

DG, Ive heard some people talk about starting with the arms or an arm. Tiger for instance a few years back talked about correcting his getting stuck thing by feeling like he started down with the arms, but that was just a feel. Fixing a Zone 1 problem with a Zone 2 component is maybe one reason why he changed coaches, maybe. I dunno. My point is while there are people who have said such things, but I dont think they actually meant to literally do that. They assumed you'd start with something further down. That is the way we humans tend to move at speed anyways.

But like I said above if you are saying that; thinking about the arm or hands forward motion will cause the lower body to move first sequentially in an anticipatory manner say........then that is a different kettle of fish.

I can execute a 10-20-C Trigger to trigger the downstroke and execute exactly what you quoted from 7-17, I can still feel the tension that Homer is talking about. Doesn't mean the feet are starting the downstroke.
