Your instruction about the bent right wrist has been a golf lifesaver, and I can't begin to thank you enough.Sorry to bother you with another one of my questions. When performing the right arm only version of 12-5-1 and 12-5-2, what type of hinging is used? Since clubhead is controlled by the right wrist and clubface is controlled by the left hand, should the hinging for a right arm only swing be dual vertical or vertical?
Also, since I am trying to learn to be a swinger, I am assuming that thrusting or punching my right forearm at the ball is incorrect, which would be a hitter's motion? I am not exactly sure how to hit down on the ball without the right arm thrust.
Cheers
1. Use Angled Hinging for the Right Arm Only Stroke. Feel the OnPlane Paddlewheel nature of the Right Forearm action from Release(8-9) to Both Arms Straight (8-11). The is the 'Underhand Pitch, Motion andFeel' (2-N-0) that keeps the Clubshaft On Plane.
2. There is no 'dual' Angled Hinge Action because the one Angled Hingegoverns both Clubshaft and Clubface. For all practicalpurposes, Horizontal and Vertical Hinging will always be 'dual.' That'sbecause you need two hinges: one to control the Clubshaft andanother to control the Clubface.
3. In the shorter Non-Pivot Strokes, Swingers should use the Magical RightForearm Takeaway (7-3) on the Backstroke; then, on the Downstroke, use theMinor Basic Left Arm Pull Stroke (10-3-D) to Pull the Clubthrough Impact. In the longer Strokes -- from the Top -- they should emphasizethe Right Shoulder Turn thrust of the #4 Accumulator (6-B-4-0/A/B/C) to 'crankup the gyroscope' of Centrifugal Force.
Hitters -- with or without Shoulder Turn Thrust -- should use the RightArm Throw (10-20-B) to Trigger the Release, and then use Right Elbow Drive (6-B-1-0/A/B/C) to Push the Club through Impact. If you are morecomfortable with this latter action, then use it and learn The Joy ofHitting. A technique that emphasizes Right Arm Power is more'natural' to most of us, and because of the active sensing of MuscularThrust -- as opposed to the passive sensing of Centrifugal Force --it is the best way to learn to use the Right Forefinger #3 Pressure Point.The key to the effective use of the Right Arm is learning to straighten itwithout Flattening the Bent Right Wrist. Experiment and see which way worksbest for you.
