The Beauty of 12-5

[annikan skywalker]

Alright you two...enough "southern cuisine"...back to Stage 2...I'd like to hear the Swinging Stage 2 ...followed by the Hitting version of Stage 2....then of course Stage 3 for the umpteenth time for both......


BTW ..Bucket is a O handicapper hidden in the body of a ten handicapper........He's "Got it"...just needs to use it!!!Hard to play good golf when you rarely play...

Oh what the Hey.....You've gone through Stage One as in depth as never before...you've enticed us with Stage 2.....Let's finish the deal here...I dare ya....

Stage Two of the Basic Motion Curriculum -- Acquired Motion -- expands the very Basic Motion from 'two feet back and through' to Waist-high (Right Forearm parallel to the ground on both ends of the Stroke).

In addition to the longer Stroke -- increased Acceleration Time (2-M-4-3) -- you acquire additional Power through minimal Pivot Motion (including Shoulder Turn and Weight Shift). Also, in addition to the Body Motion that serves to Load the Left Wrist (Swinging) or Right Elbow (Hitting), the Acquired Motion introduces the Hand Power Accumulators (Left Wrist Cock and Uncock and Left Hand Turn and Roll). With the introduction of Power Accumulator #3, the Club is now Gripped normally under the heel of the Left Hand (instead of in the cup as in Stage One). Accordingly, the Rhythm of the three Hinge Actions now varies and must be accomodated in the Stroke.

Questions?

Sir . . . Finish Swivel? Or No Finish Swivel?

>For Swingers, with or without Wristcock, the #2 Pressure Point Drag Loads the Secondary Lever (the Club / 6-A-3).<


that helps, I looked that up in my new book..it didn't hurt too much..

Now I can stop endless experimention at the range on that. drag load with pp2 then accumulator 4. Yes thats what I do with driver. Pretty much a one plane swing

The Finish Swivel does not appear until Stage Three, the Total Motion. Hence, the Clubhead remains below the Hands in Stage Two. But as we end the Acquired Motion, we're already ripping around the Endless Belt (Item #14). Stay tuned!

....Stage One!

Today was doing some chipping/short pitching with a 56 degree sandwedge. I hit a small bucket to a hole and then realized I was using the Basic Stroke. No pivot. Ne weight shift. Just a very short right forearm pickup and right arm thrust with light lag pressure to both arms straight about 2 feet in ront of me.

Stage One is very short but I also realized you can still vary the lag pressure without lengthening the stroke. The technique of varying the lag pressure is an important one and is applied for all length strokes as the shot demands. I think it helps feel to play around with lag pressure.

Yeah..now were getting into it...Now let's explain the difference of a Hitter's Aquired Motion and a Swinger's Aquired Motion......



Let's introduce the "Endless Belt" today....here in Aquried Motion.......What size belt do ya wear?

Bucket.....where did you go to Law School..."The Creek"?

Abbot's Creek . . . where eatin' catfish is like lickin' a 9-volt batt'ry.

My posting time will be very limited this week, but here's a jumpstart for the discussion. I'll chime in when I can. Meanwhile, everybody have fun!

The Item # is the reference in 12-5-2. My comment is Swinger versus Hitter.

1. #5 -- How the Wrist is Cocked (Centrifugal Force vs. Right Elbow Action).

2. #6 -- Wrist Action (Standard vs. Single).

3. #7 -- Hinge Action and its Rhythm (Horizontal vs. Angled).

4. #8 -- Clubface alignment per 2-J-1 (Open vs. Closed but both Square for Short Shots).

5. #10 -- Lag Loading (Drag vs. Drive).

6. #11 -- Pressure Point #3 (Aiming vs. Thrust).
