The interpretation held by Most, is that #2 is released with the left hand flat to the plane then teh left hand is swivled into horizontal hinging and #3 (formed by the residual #2) is "rolled" through impact. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE AN IMPROPER INTERPRETATION of HK "sequential release". I have mentioned this before and had some PM discussion -part Of which I include below. ------------------------------------------------ Originally Posted by HungryBear A thought on roll; If the roll to the vertical left-horizontal hinge alignment is early the total roll is only about 30-35 degrees. If the left is held on plane until #2 is released the left roll is almost 90 degrees and must be accomplished in a very short time and distance. this alone is problematic for a repeatable swing. HB ----------------------------------------- Not quite- We are not communicating - BUT - we are in pm so please let us get this on the same page because I see it as important. Experiment: First with the left hand only - Flat left, clubface. Take your flat-vertical- (cocked if U like, that will not change the clubface geometry at this point) Go to address- backswing flat left to top- back of hand points across plane line 90 deg and at horizon. TURN left hand to plane. 4-c-2. hand/clubface is on plane. No we will come down 2 ways- Both will use 4-c-3 roll. First -I will call this the BAD way - slow motion swing by sliding your hand flat down the plane, at about waist hight start to uncock the left (that is #2 ) if it was BUT keep your flat hand on plane. now just before impact, look at your hand on plane- You must roll 4-c-3 to vertical for impact. NOTE; the roll 4-c-3 must be almost 90 degrees and it occurs in a very short portion of the swing. Second- I will call this GOOD way - slow motion swing by sliding the left hand down the plane- But - allow/cause the flat left to roll - 4-c-3 so that it is vertical at hip level. 2 points here. the 4-c-3 roll required was only about 30-35 degrees (on the plaqne to vertical) AND YOU are now in the horizontal hinge with a verticalo club face. This can let the shaft stay on plane and you can use all the cf U can find- The clubface remans unfer the control of FLAT LEFT HAND. Any speed, any power, any length, the second experiment repeats. over and over. I can do experiments eith the right that compliment the left and OBEY HK rules. This is important. HK would be proud! HB -------------------------------------------------------------- As I believe the sequenced release is realy a "trigonometric" or proportional rate function and is completely on plane- with NO CORNERS or swivels dividing #2 from #3 release Your thoughts. ? It would be beneficial to first isolate the #2 and #3 Accumulators to better understand them individually because although the Sequence will be #2 then #3, the time distance from when #2 starts and when #3 Starts can very greatly. __________________ Daryl Last edited by Daryl : 11-29-2012 at 12:37 PM.
