8-6 Section 6-The Top (Preparations)

[Yoda]

ANY OTHER ACTION BY THE GOLFER OTHER THAN DOWN AND OUT AT RELEASE WILL BE STEERING....PLEASE DON'T MAKE IT ANY HARDER THEN IT IS...LIFE IS TOO SHORT, JUST THINK DOWN AND OUT AND MOVE ON TO THE NEXT SUBJECT OR COMPONENT....PLEASE REFER TO 1-L #s 13 and 14. TRUE SUCCESS IS MADE BY COMING TO CORRECT CONCLUSIONS QUICKLY AND MOVING ON....HOMER GAVE US THE ANSWERS TO PERCISION GOLF, JUST REFER TO SECTION 1-L....

DG,

I agree with so much of what you have to say. Especially your advice to reference one's procedure to Sketch 1-L and the Axioms of the 21 Points of The Machine .

However, the 'Down and Out' you suggest as the 'cure all' gets the Golfer only to Low Point. Still the 'Up and In' to the Finish remains. Without an adequate Finish Swivel, the correct On Plane Orbit of the Sweetspot is disrupted. And, unfortunately, there must be a Preparatory Move for this disruption. This 'preparing not to Finish Swivel' usually occurs somewhere during the Release interval -- often at Impact itself -- and results in Steering, Quitting, and the failure to execute the all-important Hinge Action and its Rhythm.

So, the Golfer who would rely on Science and Educated Hands, as opposed to 'Seems as if' and Instinct, must train his Hands in the way they must go.

Or else learn to live with inconsistency, frustration, and results far beneath his own potential.

Yes,
If the motion, "Down and Out" is correctly executed from release to impact, the probability that the golfer will correctly "finish swivel" is very high...it's almost humorous to be talking about the finish swivel in this thread...should we discuss the proper right elbow bend for drinking beer at the 19th hole........
