At what point does basic become acquired and then full

[bray]

Your question- your answers
Basic- 7 to 5
Acquired- 8 to 4
Full- individually determined depending on flexibility, etc.-

Mike,

Shouldn't Basic and Acquired end in the same spot because both swings are going to follow through (both arms straight)???? So they both would end at 5 o'clock let's say.

First, I'd like to adjust my previous post where I said "In the Golfing Machine the Right forearm level to the ground is the measurement for acquired motion". and say that Acquired motion is any motion that has a backswing end, after the Basic motion (About two feet with the clubhead) and does not "exceed the level-to-the-ground position of the Right Forearm". (There - got that one out of the way!) (Realizing that Basic, Acquired and Full Motion- really are slower motions- look, look, look "drills"- learning situations)

B-Ray Quote:

Where both arms become straight at the same time (the end of the follow-through) is primarily determined when the hands are in a mid-body location (ruling out clavicle adduction and abduction). In Basic Motion with no shoulder turn- you'll reach follow-through sooner than in Acquired Motion where you have some shoulder turn/movement that creates a more turned body through impact and the end of the follow-through interval- all other things being equal.

Assuming there is upper body rotation from impact to the end of the follow-through- then his definition in 8-11 isn't really a good one- as he uses impact shoulder location as the determining factor of when the end of the follow-through interval would be acheived.

Hope that helps.

Mike O,

Thanks for the reply......so you're saying that the pivot carries the follow through a little further up the clock in Acquired Motion.

I get it. Thanks for clarifying.

Same with me- I just have a "few" years on you! However, I'd love to turn back the clock to when I was 25!

Welcome back Ned. You were missed in a very odd way.
What did you and MikeO do to the site?
I come home from watching the new Bourne movie and its locked up. MikeO was the last guy doing something before it crashed. Did you tell him he was a hack?
