I believe that your utley lesson in TGM terms is this:
1. use an extreme sweep load where the wrists set immediately without much arm motion.
2. Turn your pivot (chest, belly button, Accumulator #4) through the ball.
3. Ball postion at or near low point depending on height needed.
4. For manipulation of the clubface to alter trajectory during the takeaway the left hand can swivel as the swinger would on the start up or it can not swivel as the hitter would on the start up.
5. utlize a two barrel stroke with #2 and #4.
I would love to know if this is close. It is one helluva way to play your pitches around the green.
I realize this thread is a few months old, but I was reading it and wondering if VJ, you could explain a bit more the "hitting pitch" and how the motion differs from the hitting chip. I feel like I have the hitting chip down pretty well but the pitch is still a bit of a mystery. Thanks for all the helpful info.
That is the difference between the hitting chip and the hitting pitch. During the chip and pitch you will use #1 as the engine of the stroke. For the pitch add some #2 and swing the forearms parallel to the ground (stage two) and you will have the hitting pitch. The hitting motion already has an angled hinge built into it so you should be in business.
In summary the difference in the two is the # of accumulators being used and the distance you swing your arms.
