the knees - another accumulator

[12 piece bucket]

The Knees are a component of the Pivot . . . I understand how people could think that the knees spine etc. would be an "accumulator" . . . some have described this as the 5th accumulator. However . . . if we are going to talk Machine we must restrict our discussion to the components as defined by Mr. Kelley. See Chapter 6 . . .

The Power Package isolates and DEFINES the function of the HANDS AND ARMS in propelling the clubhead into inpmact. So the knees and spine AIN'T a part of the Power Package . . . but they do have a function in regard of delivering/powering via the #4 pressure point.

Force is applied to the ball through Lever Assemblies. Power is applied to Lever Assemblies through Pressure Points. Power is applied to the Pressure Points by Power Accumulators.

Soooo . . . Mr. Kelley defined the Lever Assemblies/Power Package in such away that DID NOT include the Knees and spine. So they don't get to be called an "accumulator" . . . HOWEVER.. . . that DON'T reduce their IMPORTANCE . . .and BEYOND that . . . it certainly DON'T mean that Mr. Kelley didn't understand their importance and/or how they WORK. See swinging from the feet . . . . this could be "incomplete" from a biomechanics/kenetics point of view . . . BUT . . . let's give Mr. Kelley a huge amount of credit for being waaaaaaaaay ahead of his time. He may not have given us all the details with regards to joint function etc. . . . but he nailed a TON of it from a conceptual stand point. Ground breaking stuff . . .
