POWER ACCUMULATOR #1 AND HITTING
6-B-1-0 THE FIRST POWER ACCUMULATOR is the Bent Right Arm - the Hitter's (7-19) Muscle Power Accumulator.
According to 6-B-1-C Maximum Trigger Delay is gained by causing the Right Elbow to "Pass the Ball" - which is the Line-of-Sight-to-the-Ball - before Release. So this is of extreme importance to the Hitter. BUT does the Hitter ever employ MAX TRIGGER DELAY of this accumulator? |
Purportedly, Lee Trevino did.

trevino
Loren,as a matter of interest ,did Lee slice,the only way I can do that is float load and it just doesnt feel right
|
Dunno. There are extensive discussions here on Trevino. Can learn a lot. Also search on "Lee Buck".

I would think Lynn could add a ton to this, considering (from memory) I believe he followed Trevino at the Masters (not to mention being an historian) - and, I am sure, studied his swing...
Lynn? Yoda? Hello? |
my thoughts

I use all 4 barrels for max power. I use the Swinger's Start Down but Load the Right Elbow in preparation for Drive Loading. As I Load the Right Elbow so late, it certainly looks to be a Float. It's important to Delay the Trigger as long as possible, but it becomes more difficult to control the Clubface as you approach Pitch Elbow/Snap Release. Release too soon, and you'll find those 300 yard drives few and far between. :) |

Usually, Hitters wouldnt employ max trigger delay - why? -cause they are using right arm thrust from end point - meaning - their release is a result of thrust and, again my opinion, wouldnt be concerned with, nor attempt to max trigger delay - - - -hopefully, their concern are alignments. So..from end, they employ right arm thrust, which in turn, begins the release sequence - GENERALLY. Not saying they cant, they can, just doesnt make sense. Patrick |

If I may add, here-in lies the inherent problem with Hitting Procedure. The amount of Right Arm Thrust can present a Timing issue even if done correctly:) . If all of you will come over to the Swingers Procedure, timing won't be such an issue and we'll reduce hernia operations by 50%. Think what that may do to Health Insurance Costs. :eyes: |

Dear Yodasluke, You are almost Omnipotent and Omniscient. We all use the same Startdown. I like to call it simply "Startdown". One doesn't actually Load the right elbow. If you try, you'll get a hernia. You do not try to control the clubface, Alignments are established at Impact Fix. Hitters should use 10-18-C so their Elbow isn't carried or driven into a Pitch position. The 300 yard drive is not so much a problem with Release Point as it is the Direction of Thrust. I rewrote your reply: I align my machine Components at Impact Fix. I employ 4 barrels to achieve greatest Clubhead Velocity and Mass. I Startdown normally and use 10-18-C to control my Right Elbow Location. I Delay Triggering Release until my Right elbow is positioned to Thrust and Sustain the Line of Compression through the Ball. I float like a butterfly and sting like a bee. :) |
Act of Contrition
Yodasluke.
I must apologize to you for my comments in the previous post. You know that I think of you with respect, reverence and competence and anyone taught by you is fortunate. Furthermore, in light of your recent surgery and recovery process I took unfortunate advantage by those comments. I sincerely regret my remarks and hope you understand that I was beside myself and give me the benefit of doubt that I will not succumb to injurious rhetoric again. It’s Buckets fault that I said those things. :eyes: He has me completely out of character. He’s a bad influence on the good people of this forum and reflects the Dark Side. He starts trouble. He is a trouble maker. He deliberately and consciously picks fights with everyone and is the cause of most of the conflict on this website. He should be banished. I know that if he wasn't related to you, you would delete every one of his comments. :) PS. You know that I consider Hitting a Superior-Pattern to Swinging. |
