Why does this work??
i know that the drill is supposed to simplify swing thoughts etc.... and for some the thought of explaining it in TGM terms would appear crazy.... but what is actually going on with the drill ? I have not got one of those grass whips but i have been in the long grass with a 3 iron and can remember some old drill suggesting that was a good idea....

The encouragement to cut on both sides of the blade seems to suggest a lagging clubhead takeaway ( but within sufficient extensor action to provide structure to the arms ) and a rhythm of weight transference not dissimilar to the arm swing promoted by MacDonald??

Alsothe resistance encountered by the grass encourages the foot loading action, extending your swing to the feet in order to cut the grass and swing through in preparation for your backswing?

These are just thoughts - welcome yours if you have tried it. Thanks.
