'lawn mower crankers' ..."start the lawnmower" etc is the worst vision to have of the takewaway.
This is how I envision it. You're a card dealer in the middle of a round table. You deal cards to everyone from your left to your right. After you deal the last card to the schmuck on your right, you deal a card to the player behind and above your right shoulder. About 5 o'clock high. (If your head is the center of the clock dial) The elbow doesn't move much but the hand and forearm does.

And there you have it.
The Right Forearm Fans (12-5-1-#17).
Great stuff, tradekid.
From Start Up to Top, this is EXACTLY how Homer Kelley -- seated on his chair -- demonstrated the Right Forearm Takeaway to our assembled GSEM Class on January 12, 1982.

Good stuff. I never got the lawnmower analogy because I surely don't start my lawnmower with a RFP motion and never saw my dad start it this way when I was a kid. The lawnmower analogy seems to apply directly to the One Plane Swing suggested takeaway move which is a sawing motion with the right elbow...just like I do when starting a lawnmower, doing one arm bent over dumbbell rows in the gym, or elbowing someone standing directly behind me.
On the other hand, the RFP, feels like I am raising my right arm like I would when getting ready to throw a ball or if I had a spear in my hand getting ready to "stick" something on the ground with the sharp point.
The big question I have always had is if there is a difference between RFP for hitters and swingers. How is the turn and roll of the left wrist reconciled between swingers and hitters or is there a difference? Thanks.
the future of golf instruction is the golfing machine !!!!!!!

E.
a few quotes might help, dukenasty:
1. 7-1," the grips of hitters and swingers must differ in tightness."
2. 7-9, " whether using address or impact position(7-9) , the swinger must set up a "swinging" motion; the hitter a "carrying" motion(10-19) to comply with the lag loading procedures 7-19-1/2/3. "
and 3. 7-3, " for hitting (10-19-a), the right forearm should be precisely in-line with and directly oposed to - the motion of the on plane loading action(7-22) of the entire prmary lever assembly(6-A) not just the clubshaft, and this alignment maintained thru impact (2-j-3, 4-d). for swinging(10-19-c) the right forearm should be precisely in-line with - and directly opposed to - the motion of he on plane loading action of the secondary lever assembly ( the clubshaft ) and this alignment maintained through impact. "
and to think that on a very inferior website i've been called a book regurgitator. i really can't understand why ?
2008 is the future of golf instruction and the future of golf instruction is the golfing machine revolution !!!!!!

What a great thread. Yoda, thanks for reiterating the role of the right arm in the golf swing. That is what I have been working on for the last several months, and it really is producing good results.
i looked up book regurgitator in the devil's dictionary. it is code for a technical term.
it means that you have asked for reasons for assertions made by an egomaniac with an inferiority complex and he has stopped the game by taking his ball and going home.
we will hang the ortodox golf instructors with the rope that they sold us !!!
your golfing machine comrade
How can you tell the difference between an inferiority and superiority complex in someone that is arrogant?

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)
Who cares? It is the arrogant part that is a turnoff........
I'm a psychology major, these things are important!
