Had a great first lesson to kick off the the off-season up here in Michigan.

I was pleasantly surprised with the input I was given. My alignments and geometry are in good shape, the are if focus was on P3.

I need to make sure my grip is in a position to fully load P3 at the top.
I need to complete my backswing to load P3; for me this feels like adding a significant amount of right wrist bend at the top.
And as predicted the area in need of most improvement is to increase my drag period and thus maintain pressure in P3 through impact.

I was left with the drill of hitting right hand only shoots.... It's not the easiest thing but when I keep P3 loaded I can feel a distinct difference in path and pace.

Can it really all be about P3?
What feels or thought have you used to gain control over the power accumulator 3?

You don't need feel or thoughts.

You need to understand how varying the Elbow Location during the Right Forearms Angle of Approach controls the Alignment of the Hinge Pin.

Why and How to vary, and When to Adjust, the #3 Accumulator.

How to DRAG the #3 PP through the Acceleration Sequence.

Not sure I'm there yet.

But I'm interested in hearing more on this right forearm angle of approach.

Here's a Primer: it's only a primer.

Pick up your range bucket with your right hand. Palm up with the Handle of the Bucket hanging from your fingers. Make sure that the Top of the Bucket is level to the ground. Start with your right arm only, with the bucket hanging from your fingers and the bucket in-line with your right foot, the handle of the bucket should be parallel(close enough) to the plane line and the top of the bucket is level to the ground. Swing the bucket to the left and try to get it close to in-line with your left foot. The top of the bucket should still be level to the ground and the handle of the bucket should now be perpendicular to the plane line.

After you've learned to do the above, then also place your left hand on the bucket handle. Now watch as you move your right forearm so the bucket is near your left foot, that the left hand "Rolls" (the back of the flat left wrist is facing the target). The Flat Left Wrist was facing the plane line and is now facing the Target.


Swiveling is when you start with the top of the bucket level to the ground, but when you swung the bucket to your left until it's in-line with your left foot, the Top of the Bucket becomes perpendicular to the ground.

When the right wrist bends and the bucket swings!

I was at the range today rusty and having too many thoughts in my head. "Correct grip, Impact Fix, Bent Right Wrist (BRW), Extensor action..." so I just picked up the bucket half full with balls in my and Pivoted back and through and there was the Horizontal Hinge ! Very simple!

Ball in front of left foot, Lag BRW back and through produces a very high and penetrating flight with the driver and likewise with other clubs as the ball shades back in the stance.

A few of my favorite things!

My favorite part is the feeling of Compression! It has to be better than crack.
