Hitting vs Swinging?

Theory in some circles say Swinging is longer.

When Yoda redone me... Since I was caught inbetween, Hitting we started at. Obviously the Student wasn't grasping a few concepts here so we switched to Swinging. Half way through the second session, the light bulb goes off and now Swinging is working, BUT a few adjustiments and Hitting was working.

In fact I actually was Hitting further than Swinging.....

From the best I can tell from observation and study is that Hitting or Swinging success (distance, etc.) really comes down in the end to the Student. If a student can't optimize the downstroke components to maintain rhythm, then more than likely Swinging will take a bigger hit as the club will out race the golfer. For a hitter it will be a weak shot result from what I have experienced. This assumes that there is a reasonable understanding of alignment and component mixture.

I have found the the TT tapes to be instructive, but I think the idea of this is something that everyone can adopt and apply in full is a bit over the top. That is of course if I understand the drive to achieve a 4 barrel swing which seems to be an underlying theme here. I don't think everyone can achieve this with any degree of success vs selecting a less complex arrangement of components and application to match the student.

But I approach the students golf game as what is practical and can measure success based on the student and goals along with effort to be applied.

Thanks for sharing these.
