6-B-2-0 Velocity Power

[Daryl]

Three Right Hands. I felt that once in my life about 10 years ago. I admit that I haven't felt it since. I do feel the Left Hand dragging a bit. That's good because if it outpaces my Right Elbow, I'm screwed.

No, I never try to push with my Right Arm at Release. It's just not part of the equation. I don't think I could even if I tried.


Where is Bucket?

How do you adjust to hit a low shot into the wind, Daryl?

It's a lot easier for me to take a longer club or two and choke down. My swing doesn't give me a lot of options to do things other than draw, fade or straight. I can get the Driver Down pretty good by rotating the grip and having my hands farther ahead at Impact. But that doesn't work as well off the turf.

I once played 18 holes with only a 5 iron. That was a blast. I'd love to do it again.

I used to hit the driver off the turf before whenever I needed a low fade or slice with distance. Well it wasn't actually off the turf. Usually it was from the woods and only if the lie was good enough or almost good enough. Anyway, it was a good way of avoiding the risk of balooning the ball up into the branches.

Can't do it with the driver I'm using now though.

Had a buddy who would do the 5 iron putter round thing. Always broke 80. Never was in real trouble. Bang, Bang, bump and run, putt.
Takes a temperment- made the others and me mad.

There's something to that. Something very old in fact and at game's roots perhaps.

When I was playing in Scotland recently , the caddies (I never had one but saw them in action) were like hunting guides. Assessing their man, frugal with strokes they'd take clubs out of the bag, so to speak, progressively as the round went on. First the driver, then the woods, then the long irons etc. A mid handicapper would be advised to hit a mid iron off the tee on a par five often.....things like that. Frugal with strokes as oppose to our tendency to pull the least possible club that'll get you there at all times.

Its a different sort of course they play over there on the linkslands but its something to consider. A 90 shooter with a caddy in Scotland will come home with a lot his golf balls still in his bag and a pretty good score.

we all say it's just a game of skill, but, I'll stand with those who know it's war.

Homer provided a listing of power sources for #2 accumulator application/actuation in 6-B-2-0.

I realize the potential for disrupting rhythm is a consideration.

Actually, the proper Release of the Left Wrist Uncocking (Perpendicular Wrist Motion 4-B-0/1/2/3) discourages any Left Wrist Bending (Horizontal Motion 4-A-2). When the Left Wrist Uncocks, the Clubshaft remains In Line with the Left Arm. This is the essence of the Left Arm Flying Wedge (6-B-3-0-1) and the very definition of Rhythm.

It is the Bending of the Wrist that puts the Clubshaft 'out of line' with the Left Arm and thus destroys Rhythm.

The Good News?

The two Motions -- Perpendicular and Horizontal -- are incompatible. In other words, Perpendicular Motion precludes Horizontal Motion. You don't uncock a hammer downwards and sidewards at the same time.

Unfortunately, the reverse is also true. When you Bend the Left Wrist, the Club stops going down and starts going up. Hence the millions of thinned and topped shots that occur daily on the practice tees, fairways and greens around the world.

Since Horizontal Motion is the 'bad guy', developing the proper Perpendicular Motion would seem to be a very good idea.

...might I add....

Use Instructions: Ball, Hands ahead of Ball, Release, Level Left Wrist at Impact, Repeat.

Thanks all but I'm not .quite there.
Starting at my basic thought process re: the machine.
Either #4 and/or #1 PP/accumulators move the primary lever assembly "on plane". NEITHER moves the secondary lever assembly independently. 6-A-2.
Understanding that is critical-
Now accumulators #2 and #3 - concerned with the secondary lever assembly. Accumulator #3 IS WHAT IT IS- what I mean is it moves in accordance with alignments and physics but it has no "actuation force applicator" . Accumulator #2 may or may not become an "actuation force applicator" .
I think I have learned one thing. Learn how to hit the ball with ONLY application of either #1 or #4 accumulator BEFORE trying 6-B-2-0 "forces" or all hope is lost! (before all jump-I include the need for functional pivot, alignments enabling imperatives)
6-B-2-0's offering is enormous. But, applied incorectly is distructive.
That is the thinking behind my original post in this thread.

PS- looks as if this basic thought has awakened some advanced discussion-
