Hogan, A Swinger.....Wished He had 3 Right Hands......
This is a question about the role of the right hand for swingers, manipulated swingers to be exact. Hogan was a swinger, BUT, wished he had 3 right hands (thats what HE felt).
What is the role, if any, of the right hand for swingers, particularly as it relates to hinging and swivel? I know the "pure" response would say the left arm controls hinging actions, however, for manipulated swingers (90% of swingers), how do they use there right hand/arm in "squaring the club", or executing the desired hinge action?
This is an interesting quote from Hogan, because it isn't really the 'hand' that he used, but his right side, and his right FOREARM
- a power move (clubhead control - loading action) rather than a hinge action (clubface control) IMO.
The more power, the more CF could take over from impact to separation - the more 'support' there was for impact from the right side of the triangle
I hear you Edz, but, I think Hogan represented his feeling BEST as it relates to what he was feeling and doing with HIS swing. He felt he could benefit from utilizing his right hand, and even felt he could benefit from three of them (probably overexaggerated, but, he made his point). Clearly he was a swinger, and clearly he used his right hand for something........, and that something was an action through the ball.
Maybe it was just a power move (thrust), maybe it was squaring the head via rotation, but, by his words, it didnt seem to be a passive, supporting role.
True, I didn't mean to imply that it was passive, just that it was 'power' related and not 'accuracy' related. Personally I can relate to the 'feels' of a right arm thrust AND a left hand roll, even when using CF.
Hit that ball as hard as you can with BOTH hands.....

Yup
When I rely just on my left arm, its almost always a fade. When I "feel" both arms working, I can execute any hinge action better, and with more distance.
