A Rare And Unintentional Error

Wow, This is interesting....in the fall we had an interesting discussion about the use of pressure point 4 thrust per 2-M-3 with swinging, which should read pressure point 1 (Yoda your comments on that one would be interesting, page 37 pressure point 4 thrust with swinging or should it read pressure point #1 per 10-19-C). Yoda, you'd the man! Thanks, your comments are much appreciated!!! Delaware Golf

Thanks, D.G.,

The text on page 37 is incorrect and should read "In which case--to PivotThrust add a strong Pressure Point #1 thrust per 10-19-C." Here's why:

Any application of Accumulator #1 (the Muscle Power of the Bent RightArm) utilizes the straight-line Right Arm Thrust against its assigned PressurePoint #1 (the heel of the Right Hand). Similarly, any application ofAccumulator #4 (the Centrifugal Power of the angle formed between LeftArm and the Left Shoulder) utilizes the Right Shoulder Turn Thrust against itsassigned Pressure Point #4 (where the Left Arm contacts the side).

When both Power Accumulators #1 and #4 are employed -- as in the highlyinadvisable Four Barrel Stroke (10-4-D) -- then both of their assignedPressure Points must also be employed. As presently written, the #1 PressurePoint has been excluded, and the reader is forced to conclude that both MusclePower and Centrifugal Power are being driven through the same single (#4)Pressure Point, and that simply is not possible.

It is not possible because Muscle Power (Hitting) requires, by definition, aPush (of the Right Arm against the heel of the Hand). And CentrifugalPower (Swinging) requires, by definition, a Pull (of the Left Armthrough its contact point with the Left Side). Since those Actions are mutuallyexclusive, two Pressure Points, not one, are required. Hence, theerror. No doubt an error of carelessness rather than intent, but an errornonetheless.

I might add that it is possible to Swing with the Right Arm (the RightArm Swing per 7-19). However, in this application, the normal drive-outAcceleration (Pushing) of the #1 Power Accumulator is zeroed out and the Clubis driven instead by longitudinal acceleration (Pulling) using the Right Arminstead of the Left. [Kind of a 'boys' night out." ] This is accomplished by transferring the normal Centerof the Clubhead orbit from the Left Shoulder to the Right Elbow (per 10-3-K).

It is easy to identify Players who habitually use the Right Arm Swing. Theyhave large elastic supports encasing their right elbows and can normally befound in the 19th Hole waiting for their buddies to return from the links.
