6-B-4-0 defines the #4 Accumulator and associated angles. I get it pretty well. What I want to understand is "left arm blast-off from the chest" in the follow through.

I have seen this term in several threads but I can't find in book. It conjures up a picture of the hands and club moving from the inclined plane to a more vertical plane closer to the target line or flight line.

In searching through my own pics and pics on this site, the only pic I could find representing this condition was a picture of Lee Trevino here:

Is it a feel thingy more than an observable?

Millrat,

See 2-M-4

Thanks for finding that.

The paragraph mentions "blasting a Swinger's essentially inert Left Arm into orbit toward impact",,, but nothing about away from the chest at follow through.

Is this out of the book?

My question is why don't we see it? The seperation from the chest?

CW

the left arm doesn't leave the chest. PP4 remains intact as the pivot moves the chest. The left arm needs to maintain the Pace and Rhythm of the Golf Stroke. The "blast off" is started by the right shoulder. No independent arm action.

Great BBQ
 

I am with 6B, there is no independent movement of the arm.

As an aside, Master Blaster's in downtown Chattanooga has some of the best BBQ in the south, your post title made me think about it, I may go get some.

OK, I wasn't really thinking about independant arm movement so much as driven away from the chest by momentum,,, but the 'PP4 remains intact' idea agrees with how I'm swinging.

Should PP#4 have pressure all the way to finish?

MMM, BBQ! I remember getting BBQ ribs from Paradise Pig in St Pete's, man I miss those suckers.
