Hypothetical Thread...Do any of you think it is possible to have a RIGHT ARM THROW(10-20)... that does NOT involve HITTING or RIGHT ARM SWINGING? That is... can the Left Arm be SWUNG by the RIGHT ARM?
The usual THROWS for Swinging, I realize, are Right Shoulder followed by Left Wrist.

Why not? It's up to your intent.
__________________ Yani Tseng, Go! Go! Go! Yani Tseng Did It Again! YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the "LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact.
"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn. Bend the shaft.

I would say no. The key word in that section is PUSH. Plus he says Usually restricted to Hitting. So the only way I think that could happen in a swinging procedure would be the "maximum participation pattern." I would say that the term Throw implies an ACTION and not a MOTION. And thus being an ACTION it would HAVE to be either the Bat or a Hit. Remember in a Swing the Right Arm is PASSIVELY driven and it is a Centifugally Driven Slap according to Mr. K.

GI: Are you saying that the golfer has to do less with his body? Aren't there any physical requirements?
Tomasello: The only agility needed by the player is to be able to turn the hips--to pivot around a fixed point--and to lever and unlever the right forearm. The faster you can make these two movements, the greater the centifugal force you'll build up and the farther you'll hit the ball.
Earlier in the interview...
GI: This "throwing of the club down" with the right forearm--doesn't that go against everything we've been taught about the downswing?
Tomasello: Yes. The delayed hit is merely keeping the right wrist bent through impact. All that stuff about leading the downswing with a lateral move of the lower body, driving the hips and legs toward the target to retain power--it's all terribly wrong! It seems to be what's happening , but it's not really what happens in the most efficient, centrifugal-force golf swing. The reality that most people can't comprehend is that in the centrifugal-force swing there is no forward motion by any part of the body. There are just the two "force vectors" I've described.
PM me if you would like a complete copy of the Tomasello interview...GI July 1991.
