You might be writing about rotation about the Z axis. I am not - I am writing about how the left hand rotates in space during the golf swing and drags the Z axis with it so that both the left hand and the Z axis rotate as an unit around the instantaneous axis of rotation of the flat left wrist/hand. I do not believe that the left hand is applying a torque force around the Z axis when the flat left wrist/hand moves in space. I think that a torque force around the Z axis only develops if the body stops rotating post-impact and the arms keep moving uncontrollably around the stalled body. The key to a good golf swing is keeping the arms rotating in synchrony with the pivoting/rotating torso so that the flat left wrist/hand rotates slowly in space. If a golfer follows AJ Bonar's recommendation in the next photo, then he may be applying a torque force around the Z axis.
YodasLuke got a little impatient with all the theoretical mumbo jumbo and decided to get out the 'big club' and ball we keep around for demonstration purposes. They come in handy for communicating the finer points of TGM (such as Hinge Action). Hard to miss that Clubface!
So, does the Clubshaft rotate onto the Sweetspot's Plane or vice versa? Ted decided to put this argument to bed once and for all. Click here and see for yourself . . .
I have not read the entire article,nor will I,no disrespect to anyone,just lazy lol.
But please tell me the big club in vid is swingers action,not hitter.thanks

By design, it is definitely a Swing (with its Horizontal Hinging). When Ted emailed the clip over, he even added this P.S.:
Thanks Yoda for that,(wiping sweat from brow),to see Ted doing this with Hitters pattern would in my eyes be a gem (big club) I would pin that up beside hitting stickman,that would clear the fog for many a hitters learning process.
Thanks again

Thanks for the music links Yoda, at last I know what's happening in those John Wayne Westerns!
