The problem is that to boil it down to things you must monitor, that just about every alignment is just as important as the other in a true precision golf stroke - hence uncompensated otherwise your relying on acceptable ignorance. The golf stroke is very complex and people aren't treating it as such. Even here I think we are getting to a plateau where people are churning out the same answers rather than actually thinking about them. I just wish that people would think and imagine it. What if you sat down in silent meditation and closed your eyes and thought hard about what you where doing for 10 minutes a day and imagined in your head the motion. It will be very foggy to begin with - but the more you do it, the more that things will become clear. Its the difference between knowing a few quotes and knowing what your talking about. Its like a house of cards - solid from an angle yet once you peer beyond the surface the thinness reveals itself. It is amazing when talking to Lynn how indepth his knowledge is and that he has reached a state where he has transcended to understand the golf stroke far beyond what is directly written in the book... He has the complete picture and he didn't get there by just memorising it. Get out there and Learn, think and imagine.... However a good list is the mechanical checklist in 12-3. Homer was superb at organizing information for usefulness- one of the elements of his genious and it would be folly to try differently or to pick one alignment over another. The no.1 alignment is the flat left wrist but to understand that, then you'll have to understand the flying wedges..etc etc etc Last edited by Mathew : 08-29-2006 at 05:55 AM.
