Basic Motion is two feet in each direction- no pivot no shoulder turn and no acc#3. Simple back and forth on an incline plane. This is the first step to build on. Boring as 4ell, but you need to feel the hands move on the plane because this is where impact is. Acquired Motion is still no pivot but does have a shoulder turn and the the right forearm is level in both directions with some acc#3. A great pitch and chip motion btw.
Learn to Educate the Hands without any independent pivot motion. The Hands will teach the body how to turn later.
Monitoring PP3 is always a good thing. Building the Flying Wedges is even better with these two motions. Soon it will all come together. Basic and Acquired Motions are GEOMETRY and PPs are power- physics. I believe you need to learn the geometry first with these two Motions- add physics next. But don't stop feeling pp3 ever.
Basic Motion- 2 feet in both directions- feel how the right arm folds and unfolds inside TWO FEET. No pivot.
Acquired Motion- Shoulder turn with level to level right forearm- NO GREATER and No PIVOT.
Yes . . . and the MAIN THING WITH REGARDS TO BASIC MOTION is . . . BACK AND FORTH . . . .it is a MOVEMENT THROUGH THE BALL. You are learning to feel and understand that IMPACT DOES NOT ACHIEVE THE RANK OF A STATION. Swing through the ball . . . No hackin'. No steerin'. No quittin'. Make a motion . . . don't make a shot. Back up and in . . . down and out on plane until low point. Swinging back and forth back and forth.
In educating my hands in addition to the PP#3, I will warm up with hitting, or swinging with angle hinge and focus on getting the crease of my right hand on the ball.
