Yoda's Ground School Yellow Paper (Hit the DIRT!!!!)

[12 piece bucket]

Thanks to Martee for the tech. assist. Golf Clap.

Thanks to Yoda for showing me this over flap jacks . . . shirt's still got the surup stain (amongst others).

Let the education commence . . . .

Amazing the amount of information that is contained in theses drawings, particularly the first one. (I have my own personal cracker barrel art work, a treasure to behold if I must say so....)

The explanation that accompanies the diagrams bring TGM alive and in both common terms and TGM terms.

I know that the Plane of the Shoulder Turn, at the top was key, turn the shoulders on the back stroke, down the plane on the Down stroke.

The cool part was how he starts out by drawing nothing but a circle. Then, with concise and easy-to-understand language, at a pace that fits the individual student, he adds 1 piece at a time. The finished product is as posted. A TGM Masterpiece created with a few Sharpies. Those of us that own one refer to it often to reinforce the basics. Seriously considering framing mine. Thanks Yoda. (And nice of you, Colonel, to post for others to see. And, by the way, enjoy your slightly insane portion of the site.) Dr Dave

in reality, about how far apart are the impact plane line and the low point plane line usually?...also is the sweetspot plane line between them?

Starting with the ball located at Low Point, all three of these lines will appear as one. The further back the ball is located from Low Point, the wider the separation becomes between the lines. So the distance of separation is variable for a single club by ball location to low point. The distance is also different between clubs.

Yes the Sweet Spot Plane Line is inbetween them.

Diagram 2-C-1#1 gives a good view of this from down the line.

The true Three Dimensional Impact: Down, Out (flip the first picture over), and Forward to Low Point .

Picture number two, 10-13-A .

Seeing is believing.

What are the words at the top right of the first diagram: above radius, tangent and chord?

Thanks for posting
