hi,
i am at this point halfway thru the yellow book, reading much on the forums and trying to synthesize and apply it to a swing...the following thoughts and images are in my head and i'd appreciate some feedback if i am on the right track, veering off, or just plain lost...anyway, in playing around with wrist cock and bend with a club in my hands in front of me i noticed that the club shaft seems to rotate around the point where my two hands meet...if i grip the club correctly this is essentially PP#1 and it also seems to me to be the point at which the left and right flying wedges intersect...i have taken this point to be "central control" and been practicing placing it at impact fix such that it blocks my view of my lead big toe (as i look down at my hands)...i am using that point (my lead big toe) as my aiming point (i haven't been sure what that meant, figured i would get to it in the book at some point, but am using this for now) and working on bringing this point up the plane to the TOS and then back down with wedges and lag intact and "obliterating" my aiming point with my "central control" point...in slow mo/mirror work this also seems to have PP#3 "tracing the plane line"...it also seems to do well in the "garage range" unless i succumb to my old nemesis dropping the trail shoulder then bad things happen...thanks in advance for any imput!
HCW,
You're headin down the right track....The Left Arm Flying Wedge and the Right Arm Flying Wedge are "super-glued" together at the #1 Pressure Point... But the true command comes from the #3 Pressure Point(Lag Pressure Point - Intersection of the Visible Clubshaft Plane and the Invisible Sweetspot Plane - the pull of Centrifugal Force)....Hitting #1 and #3 driving the lever assemblies through impact...Swinging... Monitoring the lag and the drag pressure through the #3 Pressure Point. The uncocking of the left wristcock AT THE PLANE LINE through the #2 Pressure Point. Finally monitoring the Pivot and it's Pressure Point #4.. Others who are more authorized could probably do a better job of explainig than I!!!!
You can your pick friends ... You can pick your nose... But.... Don't pick your friends nose!!!!
HCW,
At the Plane Line means the "baseline of the Inclined Plane....Yes ...on the ground(Down & Out & Forward).... Do not release just Forward down the target line or you will be steering. Clue...It feels like for swinging a side ways 'KARATE CHOP' for Hitting it feels like you are directing the thrust at an aiming point either in front or aft of the ball depending on your intentions....Someone else might be able to describe it better!!!! Good Luck!!!!

ok, i think i got the at plane line release thing...but i've still been pondering the aiming point...what do you aim at it, where is it and why does it move "depending on your intentions"?...Sure, soup for you!

Do I get a free bowl of soup for that ?

OK annikan, this makes two people waiting on your answer.
The uncocking of the left wristcock AT THE PLANE LINE through the #2 Pressure Point. Annikan
I've been doing the left armed karate chop at the ball, which is on the target line, which is an inch outside the plane line. Could be a reason why I can't get that to work.
However, if one is uncocking the left wrist at the plane line, doesn't that mean the left arm is onplane, which I thought it never is supposed to be?
DDl,
Forgive me for not being very clear on my previous post. When one begins releasing #2 Accumulator with a Wrist Throw 10-20-E ...it uncocks to level then #3 Accumulator then swivels into Intended Impact Location. I am referring to the motion from cocked to level being a left hand karate chop of 10-20 -E Wrist throw...Please read it...This is what I mean by releasing Toward the Plane Line NOT down the Target Line...Big Difference!!! I wish I could demonstrate for you so that you could SEE what I'm trying to say, rather than trying to READ what I'm trying to say! For the left arm to be on-plane you would have to have the left wrist totally "uncocked" with #3 accumulator "zeroed out" with the clubshaft moving up into the cup of the right hand. I'm NOT recommending this during the Release Interval...This is the time and the place I'm referring to for the motion for cocked to level...Release Interval...From Impact to Follow-Through the wrist will move from level to uncocked to keep the clubhead moving down to low point after the impact point has been achieved...I am not an authorized expert on this subject matter...Master Yoda can probably give a much more clear and concise description than I.

Nothing to add or edit here, Annikan. You're right on!

been doing some more reading, thinking, imaging, and stroking....where i am now is that the aiming point is on the Plane Line and one directs the thrust at it (via PP#2 for swinging and PP#1 for hitting, i think,maybe? until release...however, i'm still not clear on the "either in front or aft of the ball depending on your intentions" part...t-i-a!
...anyway, in playing around with wrist cock and bend with a club in my hands in front of me i noticed that the club shaft seems to rotate around the point where my two hands meet...if i grip the club correctly this is essentially PP#1 and it also seems to me to be the point at which the left and right flying wedges intersect...i have taken this point to be "central control" and been practicing placing it at impact fix such that it blocks my view of my lead big toe (as i look down at my hands)...i am using that point (my lead big toe) as my aiming point (i haven't been sure what that meant, figured i would get to it in the book at some point, but am using this for now) and working on bringing this point up the plane to the TOS and then back down with wedges and lag intact and "obliterating" my aiming point with my "central control" point...in slow mo/mirror work this also seems to have PP#3 "tracing the plane line"...it also seems to do well in the "garage range" unless i succumb to my old nemesis dropping the trail shoulder then bad things happen...thanks in advance for any imput!
