If it is the clubhead- AM would be 9-3 since the arms go to parallel. IN the Golfing Machine the Right forearm level to the ground is the measurement for acquired motion.
And going to any of these clockface numbers can be done without traveling on an Incline Plane- and what does that get you?
Mike,
I assumed via his question that he was looking for a non-golfing machine answer- since he liked the left arm and clock analogy for adjusting swing length. I just gave him my own quickie answer- making my own "Golfing Machine Translation". Regarding "what does that get you"- you'd have to ask him. I assumed he was just taking a three dimensional movement (inclined plane motion)- and converting it into a 2 dimensional measuring system (the face of the clock) for determining length of swing in a mirror. In a similar sense you do the same thing with angle of approach measurements etc.- taking a three dimenisonal movement and looking at it in a 2 dimensional format.
I did like your previous post- in that you said you should monitor the hands and not the clubhead. Probably would have been a good idea for Homer to measure the basic motion length via hand motion and not clubhead motion so that the focus is in the right place.

I thought so at first, too. But I don't think a measurement is what Homer wanted for Plane Line tracing Hands. Basic Motion Curriculum could have been clearer but that is what AIs are for. And it was- "Non-Technical -- Simplified"
Hi Guy's
Thanks for your replies,
I got anwsers I was looking for. I beleive that it is almost impossible to use a clock system to train the hands to determine positions on movements with the golf machine.
I know Pelz uses it for distance relating to length of the swing for the short game and I was thinking is it possible to help others to understand the shift from Basis to the Acquired positions.
What I have in my studio for teaching is a swing plane board and a Large mirror opposite the board. when I swing and just feel positions it feels good. but when I look in the mirror which has lines it does not feel right.
What feels right to me is 2 feet back 2 feet through for a basis and once past that point and I start to use the hinge it becomes a acqiured motion.
I am going to stick with feel rather than points of change that pelz uses.
Yoda's videos with collin sum it up 100%.
Thanks for all your feedback guy's
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks Guy's

Good Luck with the teaching and the game. I have to admit now- I have no idea what your question was- how it was answered- what your intent was, etc.- nor do I need or want to know.
On more important issues- I'd like to state here - to Bagger Lance and Bam Bam- IF YOU DON'T GET THAT BUCKET HEAD TO POST ON THIS FORUM - SO THAT I CAN RIP HIS MIND AND HEART OUT- I'M QUITTING!!!! YA!YA! Now, they'll be 22 posts following this hoping for that to happen! Bagger you'd better make some phone calls!!!!
