I think if you understand the design of the club, and how the body best conforms to that design, then the mechanics of how to properly move the club should work itself out. I have been thinking about how the two best fit together lately. My idea is leverage. If you can show how the golf club is a class 3 lever, and how your left arm becomes another class 3 lever while holding the club then you understand the simple machines involved in the swing. If you can give this concept, along with how to change the length of the lever then I think the new student has an advantage __________________ "Golf is not a subject but a motor skill which can only be learned and not taught." - Michael Hebron "The Body, Arms and Hands have specific assignments during the Golf Stroke, and they must be coordinated into one efficient motion." - Lynn Blake KnighT View Public Profile Send a private message to KnighT Find all posts by KnighT
