zeroing out accumulator no.3
hi fellas,

i'm playing the best golf of my life right now, and oddly enough, im playing with the grip in the palm of my left hand zeroing out the acc no3 angle, or at least diminishing it alot. I've always been a overswinger so it might be helping as i feel the resistance in my hands.

I'm using this from driver too wedge play, pitch and chip. Surprisingly, i'm not getting any power loss from what i'm used to, one would think that zero acc3 would result in some loss,no? Maybe just a better sweetspot contact?

Maybe i just have not been using acc3 correctly in my swing or in sequence to other accumulators and now zeroing it out takes a bump out of my golf road. Would appreciate any thoughts on the matter,


thanks!

Perhaps less is more
Is it possible that you have taken some of #3 away but not all? Any #3 at all would not truly be zeroed out. Are you using a hitting or swinging procedure?

How do you define the third power accumulator ? Zeroing down a set angle at address doesn’t zero out all of the transfer power & rhythm motion of the clubhead- it DOES effect the distance the clubhead travels in its hinge motion. You shortened the mechanical advantage of the “endless belt.’ After spending time with Lynn and the gang in Paramus- I’m convinced that transfer of power of accum #3 is the key to impact quality.

Are you using acc#2? If you can Uncock #2- there is no reason you can't ROLL a bit more acc#3 angle and develop a decent hinge motion, Horizontal or Angled.

It could mean that you weren't using that much #3 accum. as a power source, or weren't using it well, so reducing the accumulator angle wouldn't take away from your power as much.

Or, maybe taking the #3 angle out is allowing you to better capitalize on a power source that works particularly well for you, ofsetting any loss you might experience?

swinging procedure. As described, it might not be 100% zeroed out.

yes i am using no.2, with this grip i feel its heaviness in the left hand at the change of direction, probably from a bit of float loading. I do not consciously try and uncock though, i let CF takeover.

Well, on both sides of your answer, i would think so as well. I have always found this year that when i get off on contact, i go back to this grip and lets me stay in the game at the very least.

Is this a rythm thing?

Not sure. Could be it's easier to maintain rhythm with less #3 acc. ? But if you've gained consistency throughout the bag, with no loss of distance, I say keep the grip.

BigWill, oh, but of course, im just trying to learn the ifs and buts so when the wheels come off, i understand what needs to be done. I want to learn and look look look to make me a better player. If i can understand why this is helping, i can then understand how to make it better. I think something was off before the change, i need to know what it was and how i can make it better so i can use the acc3 at its full potential if need be. Something in the overlaying of the accumulators made acc3 iffy...so what to do, how do i interpret this.

i'm keeping the grip change for now, but i want to know why so i get rid of the blind struggle. thanks to all!!! keep it up, i want to learn bigtime.

Just a thought
Is it possible that you simply have a level left wrist i.e. is it no longer cocked? Where is the grip positioned in your left hand?
