put on your water wings, we're going in the deep end...

The left arms doesn't move and not move at the same time? And if it moves - how can one roll the left forearm in different ways - it turns to the left doesn't it? How does this work with a angled hinging - how does the left forearm turn in this case? Who is bright enough to explain this in an understandable way?
Bright enough? Who knows? But, I'll do my best.

I'd like to preface the explanation by asking some leading questions:

1. Can I come into Impact in Pitch Elbow, with the Flat Left Wrist Turned and Cocked, then endow the Clubhead with speed through Uncocking and Rolling during the Release Interval, and (FROM IMPACT TO FOLLOW THROUGH) execute Vertical Hinging? If so, would it take some effort?

2. Can I come into Impact in Push Elbow, with the Flat Left Wrist Vertical and Level, endow the Clubhead with any additional speed, and (FROM IMPACT TO FOLLOW THROUGH) execute Horizontal Hinging? If so, should I?

I've purposefully gone to some extremes. There are things that are compatible and some things that are not. Holding the Left Wrist Vertical to any of the three Planes (Horizontal, Vertical, or Angled) from Impact to Follow Through can always be done at the slowest speeds. But, as the speed of the Club increases, through Uncocking and Rolling (Sequenced or Simultaneous), the momentum of the Clubhead and the rate of closing of the Clubface increase. A Clubface that's closing slowly or quickly tends to continue to do the same. Can it be interrupted? Yes.

Although that's a little deeper than the intent of my video, made for "Joe Public", I hope this clears some fog.

Now, back to our regularly scheduled programming...

Thank you for explaining this to me in another way , which may work (I don't know yet - I'll have to chew on it, but it is appreciated.)

nIce . . . . sir Ballgamemagnumus . . . I was doing some left hand only experimenting with the release types . . . I would say that you apply DISTINCTLY different forces to the handle/shaft via the two motions . . . what says you mang?

I concur...not about the "Ballgamemagnumus", but about the "DISTINCTLY different forces".

When I had trouble seeing or feeling anything, I'd change its location. In other words, I'd do it on different planes of motion. Seeing these things on a horizontal plane really helped me. Also, separating the motions and learning each of the distinct identities helped my understanding.

I also like the one handed experimentation that you mentioned. Breaking it down into the simplest parts always allowed me to reassemble the puzzle and gain more appreciation for Homer's genius. When you see the components for what they are, you also see the compatibility of some and the incompatibility of others. Then, the floodgates open.

Not too good at golf . . . . but I'm 7th degree black belt at "one handed experimentation" . . . . Glad the consult helped . . . the 5th accumulator . . . maximum participation pattern . . . .

Well done Ted. Short, to the Point, easy to understand.

Good Luck.

Nice backdrop for the video. Didn't mention that last year! There you go...I see something different every time I look at it.

backdrop
In my future videos, I wish I had that backdrop as a file that I could use and shoot on a green screen. It really worked out well. I've been so busy that I've been absent in here. But, as the weather gets colder, I'll have a little time to surf.

Good luck with the upcoming LBG Cert. School.
