Jeff.
Jeff,

In your posted video, the excellent instructor Brady Riggs is advising (and executing) a pure, gyroscopic Pivot Motion. He is teaching golfers to rotate in a centered fashion -- "create space" -- and that instruction is correct. To even imply that what he is doing in any way represents the BM "Guardsman Head Sway" drill you posted above -- and are now defending in arrears as a "pelvis rotation" drill -- is an abomination to the sensibilities of intelligent golfers everywhere.

We encourage debate on the fine points, Jeff, and we welcome your contributions. We also can handle being patronized (as long as we feel we are being educated). But, don't continue to insult us with obvious contradicitons.

That tactic does nothing to further the objectives of this fraternity and destroys your own credibility within it.
