I'd just like to look at the pictures of Tiger and Jamie and try to understand the dynamic that allows them to propel the ball like the giants Hogan talked about in 5 lessons. But these guys don't look like giants....just strong and fast.

It looks to me like Jamie will only get longer as his technique improves.

Anyone see any serious karate chopping down the plane?

Anyone see some hula hula pivot?

Anyone see any maximizing the radius?

Agreed . . . .but before we proceed down that line of thought . . . I think we should state the basic premise of this dude's arguement.

1. He doesn't think "rotary" stuff is "the way it works" at least to hit the ball far.

2. He is advising maximizing vertical forces into the ground vs. just turning or just sliding . . . so slide then push up and turn dynamically.

3. He wants you to swing the arms FAST.

So the question is . . . . is this contradictory to Mr. K . . . I say NO . . . I think it's right in line. There certainly are some things to flesh out.

1. 4-1-2-3 . . .what does that mean in relation to "fast arms" . . . considering Homer said the arms are the power lane?

2. How do you swing your arms fast? Do you just plane turn your pivot into them massive rotor style? Is there arm participation?

3. I think releasing 4-1-2-3 at the proper rate with the pivot has huge on plane functions . ..
