Wow, Thanks for the kind words guys, very much appreciated!

Someday soon I hope Yoda looks at having his students become a big part of his program, there is nothing I would be more proud of than being an Authorized Instructor of LBG. Someday, maybe…

OK, time to man up and say what I think in front of Yoda and all the GURU’s, if I mess up, please let me know, I can take it, that’s a HUGE part of the learning process, teachers have to keep learning too!

Quote From Dodger
Sasquatch, right forearm goes up. Look at Macdonald Exercises here at LBG. Try right forearm pickup while keeping the shoulders quiet. You need more armswing. I had the same issue, once I learned the right forearm takeaway and hand controlled pivot, it was amazing how different the backswing becomes.

WOW, Dodger nailed it in my opinion Sasquatch!



That doesn’t surprise me, I had the pleasure of working with Dodger a few weeks ago. He has studied The Golfing Machinefor a long time, and has seen many fine teachers. He has a beautifully educated set of hands, and they control his pivot very nicely. He was getting to the top perfectly, but then got a little bogged down by positions. When we started going from the top, past follow through, and using Lynn’s finish swivel to finish, the Three Stations, life was great! With proper preparation and planning, downstroke and impact positions are automatic. ALIGNMENT G.O.L.F.!

I like to look for the first wobble, and I like to first make sure you are complying with the Imperatives and Essentials, then as a one dimensional instructor of hitting, so far, I like to make sure you have Educated Hands and a Hands Controlled Pivot.

Swingers please forgive me, it may be my next lifetime before I fully understand hitting and attempt to learn more about swinging.

I would like to see more control of the hands as far as the takeaway. You take the club back with your pivot, pivot controlled hands, which gets you underplane and you need to compensate by looping it back on plane by the time you reach the top.

Please look towards the end of my Magic Right Forearm document and study the articles about Right Forearm Takeaway by guys like Yoda, Daryl, Loren, and Richie3Jack. I have posted with this response a picture that I believe was done by Daryl. I feel you want to strive for the “feel” of the picture on the right, “Extensor Action Takeaway.” The Extensor Action Takeaway will get you onto what I consider the preferred Turned Shoulder Plane faster. From there it’s just a Straight Line Delivery to your Aiming Point. How much easier can it get? Also please pay attention to the articles on Right Forearm Fanning. These are made for exactly what you need to work on in my and Dodgers opinion.

I have also enclosed a picture put up by Yoda of Brian Gay on the Explanar Plane circle which is also in my document. This picture tells a great story if you know what you are looking for.

I am a bit demented and perhaps a little brainwashed by Homer Kelley and Yoda, but I see a classic, “Look, Look, Look” situation. Brian is clearly monitoring his hands as they control the backstroke. His pivot complies with his hands and the pivot also complies with the plane rather than the pivot dictating the takeaway and where the hands go. With his Right Forearm on Plane set up, which I believe is a wonderful way to play, he has the feel of staying on a single plane throughout his motion. Beautiful and Simple. THE MAGIC OF THE RIGHT FOREARM baby!

Sorry, I got a little carried away with the length of this response, but felt it important to let you understand what I believe in before you decide to go with it.

Looking forward to meeting you and starting our LBG North studies!

Sasquatch, I forgot, other than being a little underplane on the backstroke, you have a VERY NICE motion!
