Hitting with a horizontal hinge?
Is this compatable from a standard address? Am just getting back into golf and seemed to have most success today (experimenting) uncocking the left wrist (turned)with the feel of right elbow. Little doubt my standard swinging procedure is flawed somewhere.

Sounds like maybe a SIMULTANEOUS RELEASE. A Swinger can do this, but it usually goes with Hitting. Swinger is usually SEQUENCED. Of course... there is the FEEL and REAL factor.

Ideally, your Cue, is very close to what you actually do, but with some players it IS NOT. As long as you understand what works for you...

Yes, third edtion...the 3 accumulator stroke pattern used 10-3-A right arm motion, standard wrist action and horizontal hinging.

That was exactly what i was asking.

Thanks Lagster, you are correct i think.

Hi again DG, i don't think i am that far away (trying) from Tommy's procedure at the moment, and a great one it was. I am going to review Tommy's brilliant DVD before the weekend again.

I say for the most part NO. Drive-Out AUTOMATICALLY produces Angled Hinging. Throw-Out and CF AUTOMATICALLY produces Horizontal Hinging. You of course can mix the stuff but if you do your are fighting the inherent nature of the selected procedure. You can do ANYTHING, but you must be willing to accept the consequences.

Hi John,
Back again!

My take: let's define 'compatible'.

Websters Dictionary of the English Language (2,129 pages), copywrite 1968 (best dictionary I ever saw).

Compatible: Capable of living harmoniously or getting along well together

I would say hitting in itself tends to result in angled hinging due to drive out action, etc. In this regard, horizontal hinging, it would seem, would require manipulation to some degree.

Hi Dave,

Sorry, no book with me (again), however, I do believe that was changed in later editions (though I could be wrong).

Yes, Homer removed the 4 patterns from the book in later editions. Instead in getting a copy of the third edition, I received those 4 patterns from Ben Doyle in individual sheets in 1994. Obviously, Ben treated the 4 stroke patterns as applicable. I’m sure he still sends the 4 patterns out today. I believe the question I had for Ben back then was the use of accumulator 1 in swinging. Pattern number 4 in that series was a 4 barrel swinging pattern a la Maximum Participation Stroke. However, you will find key elements of that 3 accumulator stroke pattern in the 12-5-3 total motion components in 6th and 7th editions. For instance, 10-23-A and 10-3-A. Out of the four stroke patterns from the 3rd edition the one pattern I retained for my own playing is pattern number 1, the one accumulator stroke pattern which utilizes right arm power...great for short game shots.
