The Tomasello Argument

[Delaware Golf]

Hi DG,

TT mentioned in the video that he is using a push basic stroke pattern. This really clears up some frustration for me as I was trying to use a pitch basic stroke and ran into some problems.

However, isn't a push basic stroke pattern a hitting procedure? Or would you classify the right arm swing as a modified hitting procedure?

cheers,

daniel

I believe Tommy referenced the Push basic stroke due to the comment in 10-3-C ..."It is fairly independent of Hip motion and location." a la the quiet body concept...really, is Tommy using a "From an "up-and-out" Elbow Position"??? Nada...

Sorry, Tommy is using a pitch basic stroke for the swinging procedure and a punch basic for hitting. From your comment, you might be executing the pitch basic stroke incorrectly....especially if you're generating big slices...with the Driver! For the correct move in the downstroke, checkout the extensor action drill Tommy executes in the Australia chapter series videos...I highly recommend you watch all of the Tomasello videos and write down all of the drills...then, practice them daily or as much as possible.

DW,

Have you experimented with using a 10-2-d style grip with TT's pattern?

Hi DG,

Thank you very much.

The part I was refering to is between 14.45 to 15.00 on the letter video part 2.

Minutes earlier....Tommy said "throw it down and out, push it down and out, however you want to call it"...


It's a pitch basic stroke....a right forearm underhand pitch...in the end, Tommy's swinging the club (per 7-3).

Are you guys using impact fix with this pattern?

I perform the extensor action drill over the ball before every shot, and doing this naturally places me at impact fix.

I feel that Tomasello's video and letter series is still incomplete without Evershed's explanations, especially in the hands and pivot action.

daniell, could you give us a summary of how Evershed explains it, sometimes 2 stones are aiming the same target, one stone is easier to throw for one person than the other. I mean, it might be two feels or descriptions for the same purpose.
thanks, i still love this thread guyz.
