The "Power Release", or Ben's image of shooting a pebble out of the end of the shaft at the plane line.

When does Longitudinal Acceleration begin? Does it begin at Release point? Mr. K mentions drawing an arrow from the quiver is that Longitudinal acceleration?

Thanks!

Swingers begin the Longitudinal (lenthwise) Acceleration of the Golf Club immediately in the Start Down. In other words, they Pull -- Drag -- the Clubshaft Down Plane (toward the Plane Line) in the direction it is pointing. Hitters, on the other hand, Push -- Drive -- the Clubshaft Radially (directly from behind).

Thanks Yoda! Quick follow up . . .

The thread on Bobby Clampett got me thinking or confused on this. A Swinger is typically completing the Backstroke at End vs. Top. In order for the club to be Pulled Down Plane from End, would the club not be pulled in a horizontal fashion from End to Top and then Down Plane?

Just curious . .

Thanks!

The re-tracing from End to Top is a circular motion, not straight-line. Per 1-L #9: No matter how the Lever Assembly is driven, it always moves in a circle.

This is a foggy area to me. How does 1-L #9 fit into the Straight Line Delivery Path? Or is it just a straight line effort? Please explain!

Both the Hands and the Clubhead require Down Plane Guidance.

The selected Line Delivery Path (7-23) guides the Hands Down Plane ('straight line' Thrust toward the Aiming Point). See also the Endless Belt Effect (2-K #6) and its implied Top (of the Line Delivery Path) and Release (bottom of the Path). See Photo 9-3-6, at Top and Release, and the shadowed arrow illustrating the straight line direction of Thrust.

In contrast, 'Tracing' (with the #3 Pressure Point and Right Forearm) the selected Straight Line Delivery Line (the Plane Line per 7-5) guides the Clubhead Down Plane (and results in the curved Clubhead Blur -- Arc of Approach and Attack).

Through Impact, these two Components -- Delivery Path and Delivery Line -- produce identical Clubhead orbits (the Clubhead Line-of-Flight per 2-N-0). Thus, though the Hands' Thrust -- Muscular (Hitting) or Centrifugal (Swinging) -- is Straight Line, the Lever Assembly itself moves in a circle.

Practice each Component diligently -- but separately.

Dr. Green Wallop,

Oh Thee of green skin and Yellow knowledge, do you prescribe Tracing vs. Line Delivery Path as different strokes for different folks? Or I guess my question is what type of faults does tracing help and what type of faults does Straight Line Delivery Path help?

Thanks!

Both Components are necessary. Tracing the Plane Line keeps the Sweet Spot On Plane. Driving your Hands (and their derivative Thrust) down the Delivery Path directs your Thrust at a specific point on that Plane Line. Of the two, the Delivery Path has priority.
