Stationary Head - To be or not to be

[12 piece bucket]

Wait I was just thinking.......if I was chopping wood a pure vertical deal, Id squat in transition. Is the squat an indicator of an application of force Downward. Down being the often missing dimension? Wood chopping vertical vs t ball horizontal motion. Hmm

Precisely . . . so the plane of motion is different in golf right . . . so there is that vertical component in the ground force and also a forward component too . . . so if you look at eldrick at address . . . consider him "squated" right (waist bend) . . . he loses that waist bend to some extent on the backstroke . . . and then adds it back but FARTHER DOWN HIS STANCE LINE at "sit down" . . . you'll note that Hogan does this same move WITHOUT his head going down. (could be that vision deal . . . why else would he do it?) . . . Hogan is squatty with his hips farther forward than eldrick. The tale tale sign is the the left knee and how long it stays bent (hogan's longer) . . so his hips go more forward . . . soon as the left knee straightens up the hips are going to start to rotate and/or the head tilts back. With that whole axe deal . . . in golf from the top you are delivering the axe to the ground via the squat but you are pulling it up outta the ground via swinging from the feet . . . getting your pivot segments from out of line to in line ankles knees waist bend spine etc. and WHEN and WHERE you do it has implications on the LOC. You'll observe that dudes that really knock the frost off the punkin do this BIG TIME . . . see below
