Right Arm Swinging at the LPGA Championship
Hello all,

I'll be at the LPGA Championship managing the driving range from 6am till noon tomorrow and Sunday all day. If you're going to attend the championship stop on by the range and look me up.

Bagger,

Some food for thought to continue the evaluation of the right arm swing.

My experience with the right arm and swinging....

The 4 Barrel Swing with the lower body leading....good and bad results. Distance excellent....control questionable. I used what I believe was an non-automatic release by driving out at the ball at the release point.....the classic switters motion.

The 3 barrel swing with the right arm starting the downswing with the same kind of release motion on the downswing. More consistency, no hooks, slices with the driver.

The 3 barrel swing with the right arm starting the downswing.....just pushing the right arm and allowing it to release automatically....initial results good...in time lost the sweet feeling of lag. This lead me to believe you got to release....you just can't push it down ya got to throw it down per one of the release motions!!!

3 Barrel swing with right arm throwing it for the top a la Tom Tomasello and the Magic of the Right Forearm....consistent shots (powerful shots), consistent shots with the driver...straight as an arrow....amazingly straight.

Now, I'm in the process of incorporating the both forearms approach. By the end of the summer I should be able to comment on that.

My guess is Tom Tomasello didn't call the right forearm procedure that he taught the right arm swing because I believe he didn't agree with that last paragraph in the book and the twinge in the right elbow.....I believe Tommy thought it was BS. I agree.
