Close Encounters Tape - A Lesson With Lynn

Yoda, in the video, you talk about directing the lag pressure down with the #3 pressure point. This may be beating a dead horse, but how does the swinger do this with that the right hand only like you were demonstrating? Or should the swinger practice that with only their right hand?

Normally, the Pivot Loads the Swinger's Lag Pressure on the Rotated #3 Lag Pressure Point -- the first knuckle of the Right Hand. Centrifugal Force then supplies the Thrust of the Stroke, the Direct Drive of the #2 Accumulator (the Left Wristcock) through the #2 Pressure Point (the last three fingers of the Left Hand). However, that Centrifugal Thrust is sensed as Clubhead Lag Pressure and aimed by the #3 Pressure Point -- via its straight line thrust -- down the Delivery Path and toward the Plane Line.

I absolutely endorse practicing that move with the Right Arm only, first without a Club and then with one. At the Top, mentally draw a straight line from the #3 Pressure Point to the inside-aft quadrant of the Ball. Then, as your Downstroke Pivot Loads the Lag in Start Down, feel as though your Right Hand remains at the Top of the Stroke. Finally, with your Right Hip Cleared and the Lag Loaded, direct your Thrust directly down that Line and through your Aiming Point (usually the Ball). Once you've got the move down pat, practice with both Hands.

Yes Yoda, I remember this well. You and Luke performed this movement together with your right arm. It is right up there with the "Hitters" handshake............
