Tongzilla,

Are you sure about that??? I can feel the loading of accumulator number 2 at the end assembly point...it's a subtle feel...but it's there. I use extensor action takeaway (10-19-0 and 6-B-1-0) and Snap Loading...on the takeaway, I allow the right elbow to fold naturally a la Ernie Els (no forced extensor action, totally natural extensor action)...for short shots, I start folding the right elbow immediately at startup(sweep loading). I believe the confusion on snap loading comes from interpretation of pictures (that you need a really wide arc to perform snap loading) and not fully understanding what snap loading is...read 10-22-C carefully. Checkout Ben Doyles video "How to Build A G.O.L.F Swing" when he demonstrates snap loading....no wide arc there!!!

If you study this concept in-depth...you will find that with Right Forearm Takeaway there are two natural procedures for swingers and two for hitters.

Swingers - Full Sweep and Snap
Hitters - Full Sweep and Random

Just look to stroke patterns 12-1-0 and 12-2-0...both are using extensor action takeaways which creates snap loading for swinging and random loading for hitting. For short shots just start folding the right elbow at takeaway and you have the perfect loading procedure for short shots (sweep loading). Hmmmm yes, TGM is that easy.

From the two natural procedures that I just described (creating machine like precision), I don't know why any golfer using the swinging procedure would want to use random sweep loading? Snap Loading is a fairly easy condition to achieve (I believe that's why Homer put it into 12-2-0, if you use an extensor action backstroke per 10-19-0 one will achieve a snap load condition). Just let the right elbow fold naturally on the backswing and left wrist will cock and the clubshaft will snap load into place at the end assembly point. Some golfers might not like the feel of snap loading....then sweep load, start folding the right elbow at the beginning of the backswing.
