Radial Acceleration versus Longitudinal Acceleration
Here we go:
"Go to Lowes and buy an Axe handle and see/feel it for yourself...Radial acceleration...view as in radians....moves like a spoke on a wheel...but driven by a Linear motion..This in TGM terms is called "Hitting"...Go Back to Home Depot and Purchase a 4ft Piece of Rope.....Very Hard to push or drive a rope in a circle or a straight line unless being pulled at each end ...Try to substitute this rope for the clubshaft try to make it go in a circle...need to accelerate it lenghtwise(longitudinally) first so it can "stretchout" before it orbits into an angular motion....This is called "Swinging" in TGM...
It is very difficult for something to move radially and longitudinally at the same time!!!
