Ben controls the length of those Strokes by varying the amount of Pivot ("1/3 swivel, 2/3 swivel, full swivel"). Here things can get a bit confusing for students of The Golfing Machine. His term "swivel" refers to the amount of Body Turn one would experience if sitting on a "swivel" chair. It does not relate to the term as defined in the book, i.e., the independent "Roll" of the Wrists from Release to Impact and also, from the end of the Follow-Through into the Finish (2-G).
Yes sir...Before I met you I visited Ben for a lesson. I had a difficult time going through his swivel exercises because I interpreted them (correctly) as being hand motions.
I was getting a wee bit uncomfortable when Ben kept grabbing my belt loop and jerking my left hip around on those 2/3 swivels while I was trying my best to execute an angled hinge.
