Exit Mania
 

O.B.,

The Plane of the 'exiting' of the golf club from the Follow-Through into the Finish is now all the rage. Is Turned Shoulder right? Is Squared Shoulder wrong?

Much of what is being written or said today concerns using the Body (Pivot / Zone #1) to control the Arms (Power / Zone #2) and Hands (Direction / Zone #3). From the hopelessly over-Plane practice stroke 'chop' I first saw years ago with Corey Pavin to the graceful On Plane exit of Sam Snead, it is an environment where Pivot-Controlled-Hands and Hands-Controlled-Pivot collide. Until this conflict is resolved -- consciously or subconsciously -- Bent Plane Lines and Compensated Strokes are inevitable.

Why not start a new thread for the discussion of same? Contact Bambam if you have any trouble moving any of this stuff over.

Memorizing -- and Using Moments To Do It
 

See #11 here. http://www.lynnblakegolf.com/forum/thread3491-2.html

And, for context, #16 and #18. Then #19, #20 and #24.

Ah, heck -- before and aft -- read'em all. It's a great thread!

Have we listed #1 here?

Or, anything here: http://www.lynnblakegolf.com/forum/thread3491-2.html.

Ah, shoot, I've spent an hour hanging around an old thread to which I contributed a substantial number of hours. And still ardently believe every word I wrote!

This 'Best of Yoda' Forum in its present form is potent, but anemic.

There are thousands of worthwhile posts in my archives to be organized and presented to our interested readers.

The task is enormous.

I need an intern who will work under my personal direction and edit.

I will find that person soon.

Meanwhile, from our own . . .

Any takers?

A PM works.

Hitting Aficiendado
 

Another great find. Thanks, ICT!

That was not Homer Kelley's conclusion. Enjoy the exact words of The Master:

"I think Hitting is going to become far, far more popular than Swinging
with the real blood-thirsty golfers, the money-hungry golfers. They're going
to go to Hitting because it is...they have total control; much better finesse;
more positive control of Power; and less total body involvement."

"It is far more difficult to learn, but far easier to execute
when you get it. Oh, it's so simple. Nothing ever happens. Nothing ever gets
out of line. You just take it up and come down. And you can slam it as hard
as you want to if you stayed with this Right Forearm alignment.

"And you'll find all of a sudden you don't have to 'throw' the
club. Just come down any speed you want and it just comes right through.

And not having to 'Rotate the Plane Lines' [Ed: to curve the Ball.] -- gee,
that's a tremendous advantage. But, it is harder to learn, but lots
easier to execute once you've learned it. Much more individual. You feel like
you're controlling every little ingredient."

"I think it's great."

And there you have it.

:golfcart2:

Can you explain why the hitter does not have to rotate the plane lines to curve the ball?

Horizontal Reasoning
 

My belief is that the Hitter is using a naturally laid back piston-like thrust with the right elbow. To prevent that loss of compression and maintain the integrity of the "Sweet spot Plane" as it contacts the inside Aft of the ball, the Hitter employs the Horizontal Hinge which maintains a constant closing of the club face automatically.
