On the next to last picture (104) it looks like a horizontal hinge on your follow-through?? Or is that an illusion from this angle?? Or am I missing something (most likely the case!)..
When I had my lesson with you in late Sept I had a similar looking follow through( after 90 minutes of work!) and your comment on my video was that you liked to see that position. I forgot to ask you that at the time.
Thanks, Dave

Hinge action is only from impact to follow-through (both arms straight/two feet past the ball). The "blasting to Beijing" created a truckload of soil around the clubhead, so the clubface is a little obscured. But at two feet past, I'll assure you that it's 45 degrees across the baseline. Even a hitter has to have an exit to finish. And that bridge is the finish swivel. Many have been taught to execute a hinge action as a swivel. That's bad business.
Is that as far as you ever take your backswing Ted?
What happens if you go further?
Yep...
I hit the PW 140 yards. And, Homer said take it as short as possible until you start losing distance.
When I take the driver back, the clubhead travels farther because the club's longer. But, my hands are similarly positioned.
If I take it farther, the shaft starts loading for swinging. No thanks!!!
