Im Bewildered? You just noticed this now? Who isnt when reading TGM?

I never said "elbow saw". Gave that up with One Plane.

Magic of the Right Forearm, that cryptic but enticing bit of business. I welcome any insight into this topic and invite others to jump in. Please.

Daryl but if "the Right Elbow is never in control of anything , especially the left arm" as you say, then why did Homer say as much in regard to the Magic of the Right Forearm?

Per 7-3...." Bending and Straightening the Right Elbow will RAISE AND LOWER the left arm". Caps by Homer by the way. One of you guys is totally crazy or maybe both and soon maybe me too.

Dear Daryl,

Great information there...thanks! I tried and gave me a better on plane look in video. One more question...

Does the "tee/towel under armpits drill" violates the "right deltoid raises the left arm"?

Don’t worry about me either. I’ve always been high strung. I just had one of those light bulb flash moments. Ya know, everything makes more sense and everything in the book is seen in a new light.

Ya, I know what you mean about the right elbow. I always had the idea that I was supposed to tell the elbow where to go, keep the elbow on plane, the forearm isn’t on plane until the elbows on plane. But now, I think I've got a handle on it and writing it out in the posts helped ingrain it.

Maybe everybody uses extensor action that way, I don’t know, maybe I understand things better when I go at it at a different angle or something. I feel really confident in my understanding of the golfing machine. Better than ever. But, I've said that before.

You know whats weird? Here we are two middle aged guys who've spent most of our lives thinking about golf and neither of us really knows how the club gets over our right shoulder......

What kind of insanity is this? There's probably somebody logging on for the first time whose reading this and thinking he'd better get the heck out of here and quick. "Those TGM guys are whacked, dude .........just take your right wrist to shoulder height man, WTHeck."

Hey guys, isn't that what is so wonderful about TGM? If you have a flat left wrist, lag pressure, and the club on plane, the options are limitless. No right or wrong!

Great discussion, I am learning a lot from you both...

If I had a flat left wrist, lag pressure, and the club on plane at impact I would play golf on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.
