Does the Spine Angle stay the same throughout the entire motion of a Full Stroke ?

Remember this a Full Stroke question!!!!

I picked the last one....gut feeling. (and it esp. makes sense with a cross-line hip slide)

Remember this a Full Stroke question!!!!

If your Head remains steady, and your Feet planted, and your Hips move left or right, then your spine angle changes.

Itsa hunch!

But...trajectory changes require adjustments in lateral bending between sternum and stable head,and slopes require adjustments in the lower part of the spine for stability,
ball flight changes utilize waist bend adjustments,
power, lag pressure require rotational differences.

On the right track??

I choose 2 . Because i feel that the trailing leg/knees is a thrust board, at the end of the backswing the thrustboard "readied" the momentum for your pivot to thrust(slide forward) in the start up. The spine angle should not shift much or at all in the backswing. even though your hip turn excessively, your spine angle should not differ much.

However in the downswing. an axis tilt is required to move the shoulder down plane. Thus its the only time that the spine shift occur.

However It is possible for the spine to be moved in the backswing or through swing. Like for example if the trailing knee straightens during the backswing. if that the case you will have a hint of reverse pivot.

Does the spine angle remain the same throughout the entire motion of a full stroke? I think not. The spine angle alters with axis tilt induced by hip motion which Tomasello contends is caused by lowering the right shoulder. Therefore #2.

I feel that down the line the spine angle should remain the same but not face on.

[birdie_man]

He must be talking about down the line tho, no?

Cause we all know about Axis Tilt....

...

I don't think Homer (for example) ever talked about "maintaining your spine angle" tho....

I feel that down the line the spine angle should remain the same but not face on.

Really... At first glance...perhaps....maybe looking at it from a different perspective might help to reevaluate....

Which Plane?


All 3 Planes...Lateral(frontal),Anteroposterior(sagittal ), and Transverse(horizontal)
