I could be totally wrong, but didn't bio mechanics lead to "position golf"?
I think if it has been mis-applied it leads to 'position golf.' But from my understanding bio-mechanics is basically the study of how the body can move and its range of motions. For instance, I'm right handed...play golf right handed, but I'm left eye dominant. Because of this, in order for me to 'see the ball' I keep my head down a bit longer through the swing. I'm not thinking 'keep your head down', I'm just trying to see the ball which is a pretty natural instinct. Probably not the best example, but that's sort of what I get from understanding bio-mechanics.
Hello everyone. First time posting here in Lynn's site, altho I have been a member over a year.
Having had learned 3+years of bio-mechanically derived golfswing, which incidently was the same instructor taught Brian Gay as well. And no its not Leadbetter.
Bio-Mechancal golfswing seems to be new "buzz word" that every Tom, Dick and Harry attatch their golfswings or teachings these days.
My former instructor who taught a golfswing was based on human kinetics which seeked efficiency of movement based on our anatomy.
Bio-mechanics of human anatomy can be like that of religion which has several denominations. In the world of golf and golfswings, there going to be different views of how and what if efficient, hence, different swing theories even in bio-mechanics. Although there should be only one way of true, superior, efficient human movement making the golfswing, based on our anatomy, different theories are being taught using the scientific data. And, yes, I agree that we are made different, but we should be able to use same kinetic link and muscle firing patterns.
Who is right or who is better? It is something that the time will tell us. Perhaps someone with more of indepth knowledge can post more detailed point of view.
My goal is to be that of a student of learning from this site, I have very lil knowledge of TGM, hence maybe asking some same redundent questions which been asked 1001 times prior.
Thanks Lynn aka Yoda for this forum of learning and exchanging ideas.
