Zero out the Pivot, Shoulder Turn and Accumulator # 3. Yoda demonstrates the Basic motion in the first video in the Colin Neeman lessons. In doing so he shows angled, vertical and horizontal hinging. How can you horizontal hinge without using Accumulator 3? Yoda talks about rolling the wrist through in the second video to horizonbtal hinge. I am a little confused. OZ, It's always confusing traveling the yellow brick road! But it's worth it to reach the Emerald city- I think that's where the little green guy lives. Zeroing out the Pivot means that you don't move it. Zeroing out the Shoulder Turn means that you don't move it. Zeroing out the #3 Accumulator has nothing to do with movement-per se. Zeroing out the #3 Accumulator means that you have the left arm and the clubshaft in-line as viewed from down target i.e. grip it in the palm with the shaft angle at the same angle as the left arm. Once the grip is taken- you still move the left arm to make the stroke, you still move the clubshaft, you still have some kind of clubface motion through impact- HH, AH, VH. Having a zero #3 accumulator - has no influence on how your left wrist and therefore the clubface moves through the impact interval. P.S. watch out for the Tin-Man AKA Bucket- a lot of rust on that boy! (Bring it Tin-Man!) Mike O View Public Profile Send a private message to Mike O Find all posts by Mike O
