Discussion of the Most Misunderstood Yellow Topics

[O.B.Left]

Bucket, are you up for a few more rounds on the "Most Misunderstoods"?

If so, Im foggy on 10-3-K the Bat Minor Basic Stroke, Arm Motion. How can the right elbow replace the Left Shoulder as the center of the Clubhead orbit? How can the Flat Left Wrist not be essential? etc. I dont get it.

My reason for asking is two fold: Im goofing with Hitting and loving it but dont want to risk injury to my old squash elbow (which forced me to quit the game) so far so good however no twinges. Secondly, in trying to figure out the 2-J-3 Angle Of Approach Procedure's Straight Line, "Steeper than you think" clubhead arc (which I am nowhere close to figuring out, has anyone?) Mr Kelley mentions an "uncentered linear motion out to right field", which perhaps relates to the above. How do you uncenter a stroke with a taught Left Arm, Primary Lever?

I get that the Right Arm is Powering the Clubhead directly not powering the Primary Lever assembly. I get that Thrust is straight line and I can imagine a straight line Clubhead path requiring the Left Arm and Club , Primary Lever to be uncentered at the left shoulder BUT the only way I can imagine it is via a slackening in the Left Arm or Radius. Is there another way? I hope so cause Im so sold on Swing Radius, Taking up the Slack, the Flat Left Wrist , Extensor Action etc What gives?

Regards
