Matthew, thank you for your detailed post! It does clear up plenty of fog for me.
Now we know that straightening the legs increase slant of the hips in that particular direction.
Say, if we use Standard hip action, the hip would have more slant throughout the swing. and after impact, the slant brings the plane/CF more UP ( from up and left)
In the case of Left Anchor .. The hip have slant on the back swing but more FLAT on the post impact bringing the plane more down and left.
A Left Anchor will give the Plane a more Up effort in upswing and " DOWN" effort in the downswing. thus more beneficial since the center of the plane is below the left shoulder . Thus the club, body should allow CF to bring the Thrust/bottom of the plane more "down " longer.
I feel the left anchor does help me so strike the ball better ie. better compression.
Though Standard feels more solid balance wise
So.. do you think I am doing it for the "right" reason?
Whilst they can be done with difficulty (perhaps better used in 'speciality' procedures), the standard and right anchor variations have certain advantages over the double anchor and left anchor variations... mainly because the resulting hip action has an inability to tilt the spine enough on the downstroke. The resulting turn will do nothing to help keep the club onplane during the downstroke.
You may of seen Byron Nelson with his double anchor... It is actually falsely done because he still creates axis tilt, starts to straighten the left leg and because he did not have his head in a position at address where he could sucessfully maintain it, he lowers it and his whole machine bobs downwards through impact to create that knee variation.... whilst he was a great player - this is still a faulty procedure....
Now it made more sense to me... the application of right anchor and std anchor.
I always thought the BOB have something to do with momentum transfer... now i see it more clearly. Its amazing to knowthat the Anchor affects head movements as well, thats pretty huge i must say.
Matthew... your a real smartie and thank you for the explanation.
