Hmm? What about a non-Pivot Stroke?

If I may ask one more question:

If the Hands go up and down, and the Pivot goes back and forth, then are the Hands monitoring both paths simultaneously?


If I may ask one more question:

Isn't Down-plane a Path?

If I may ask one more question. I don't want to be annoying.

If my hands go up and down and my Pivot goes back and forth, then if they precisely move 1" at a time then their path will be down and out at a 45 degree angle to the ground. That's not the question. The question is, If my Pivot is moving back and Forth, then whats moving my shoulder up and down to support the Hands?

Ok I got more time now. Say you are cooking pancakes for da kids after a Bears game. Your daughter asks for more maple syrup which is in the cupboard , top shelf. You reach for it grab it. Your mind was on it, the bottle of syrup on the shelf. You didnt notice the pivot you made , around, back or the movement of your arms , hands UP . You just saw the Hands going directly towards the bottle. This relates to the discussion at hand and to the Stations, Address, Top, Finish. And to " Let the motion make the shot". Impact is not a Station.

The vectors are divergent as they are in most co ordinated movements we do ......with the possible exception of the golfer who employs a Shoulder Turn Takeaway. Which by definition would see da shoulders take da hands along in their direction, always under plane. Which would see Ditka miss da bottle of syrup on da top shelf. A first in NFL history.
