I don't see any way that throwing the club at the target could lead anyone to directing a PP or the butt end of the club toward the ball or any nearby point on the plane line. Homer Kelley taught that, from The Top, the Downstroke Motion was a Straight Line Thrust of the #3 Pressure Point directly toward the Ball. In personal demonstration, he would move his Right Hand Forefinger in an absolutely straight line toward the Ball until his Right Arm was straight. Further, he contrasted that move with its Throwaway-inducing counterfeit, i.e., swinging 'toward the Target'. His demonstration complete and unmistakeable, he would then instruct his students to visualize the Face of the Club as a downward-angled 'block,' and use it to hammer the Ball into the Ground. __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage!
