Since this is a hands controlled system and we use the power accumulators does the pivot really provide anything other support?

Absolutely . . . .

Let supposed that you have PERFECT WEDGE/Power Package alignments and you finish like the golfers below . . . vs. Hogan . . who's gonna hit it farther?













The pivot has HUGE implications on wedge alignments, plane shifts, release type, delivering maximum radius, release points, clubface closure rates, variances in angle of attack and angle of approach . . . you're gonna see significant changes in the driver as well as people try to achieve a certain spin rate and launch angle . . . some pivots work better than others in maximizing those numbers . . . so when you compare Hogan to the "compromised" pivots above there are OBVIOUS differences . . . but there are significant differences in the alignments in Eldrick vs. Hogan's pivot as well . . .

Sure Mr. Kelley advocated a "hands controlled" pivot but let's not reduce his system to that . . . he said, "Everything is important . . . monitor everything." Go watch a good pros pivot vs. a really good am . . . you'll see differences . . . . big time.
