Classic Exchange with oodles of info on the them belts
I can reference 2-k # 6, but I would prefer to tell you what the endless belt did for me!
Endless belt effect of # 3 Acc. ---- straight line delivery path --- more upright plane (turned shoulder plane) --- 3 dimensional impact ---- more up and down than I thought sane --- Compression!
Understanding the Endless Belt Effect opened my eyes to the sequence of learning represented above! It represented the dynamic concept/image that I needed. I actually hit balls thinking "slow hands...slow hands" I think a key in competive golf is to be deliberate without a hint of steering. Firing accumulators in sequence helps...but know that you do not have to have flash hand speed (unless you want take em' around the mulberry bush) it sucks the anticipatory stress out of the process. It allows us to think process...procedure...and consequently stay in the present. Funny thing is that my lack of play in recent years led me up to this point. For this reason and that reason I have not played much, but I did work on my game in my armchair. I am chomping at the bit...practically foaming at the mouth!
I have "reduced" my TGM bag o' tricks to the proper understanding of Homer's "Big Ideas." It has taken over a year! I know that there is a deeper level of understanding for teaching purposes, but I am now able to execute physically what I understand conceptually...what a rush!
One day I may be able to reference the book in an expert manner. I can however find the "Biggies" as fast as a seminary student can find John 3:16!
Obviously the Endless Belt Effect is a "Biggie" I think I ranked it second to the Flying Wedges in light switch ideas for me...Geometry of the Circle was helpful...the elusive Extensor action very instructive...hinge action is cheating....law of the flail brought me closer to my agrarian roots...bent and vertical right wrist made me respect all of the spear throwers of antiquity...on and on!
I don't think this has been much of a thread starter, but I am aiming for a 100 posts before January is done!

Good stuff Okie. I think you're taking a good approach by making the "biggies" that Homer put out there "your own". Your comment regarding "flashing hands" (Yoda mentions somewhere that Grout would work with Nicklaus on eliminating that very thing) is spot on. I played some great golf last year with only the idea of "aiming my hands" and not over-accelerating them.
Unfortunately I'm A-D-D when it comes to my swing. I tinker more than I should looking for the perfection that just isn't attainable and somehow get away from the things that work well when I have an off-day on the course.
The EB is a biggie, that's why I think it's good to resurrect some fresh discussion on it.
