Im not Bucket (thank gosh) but ... Wow great stuff, effort.

Re point 4. 4,3,1,2 is impossible isn't it? The left arm can not separate from the chest without the right arm extending. Unless you redefine what is meant by #1... Some ,from other quarters , have done this . Ok by me, why not? My only problem is when some of those same guys turn around and say Homer therefor had it wrong. You can't judge him using a definition of things that varies from his own .



Also 3 before 2 would mean he was rolling a fully cocked left hand which is kind of un golf like and would make for an extremely early release given how much #2 angle he would be rolling.... the angle making for way more drag upon the rolling action. (This is something Homer discussed in the audio tapes .... minimizing #3 angle to encourage a later Release Point, Snap Release). Hogan had minimal #3 angle at Address , "high hands" or what we see as a nice set of Wedges .. he rolled a level left hand after a goodly amount of #2 uncocking. 2 before 3 with some overlapping ... (theres always a bit of overlap even when Release is Sequenced).

Great topic. Looking forward to others jumping in.

Regards
ob.
