Learning and Applying TGM w/disabilities by a 21 hcp.

[KevCarter]

I was so mystified by the correct grip and Mid-Body hands, that I forgot to form my wedges with my left arm elevated above my right. Umm, I was off Plane all day and over the top or under the Plane. I saw places on my golf course I have never seen before.

Note to self: Correctly formed Flying Wedges mean your club is on the Elbow Plane, your Right Forearm is on the Elbow Plane, and the ball can be struck effectively ON THE ELBOW PLANE!!!!

It is not rocket science!

This is an older picture of YODA's set up that really helps me remember what I want to accomplish. He called it "Standard Address with an ATTITUDE."

Thanks Kevin.

I went to the range last night which I never do (and pros do a lot) and took out my dowels!

I waited for a sweet little Korean woman to vacate the stall with the picture glass. She was hitting her driver almost 180 yards with an effortless swing dead down the middle.

"I can do that! I can do better! I have been to Cuscowilla. I have seen Yoda. I have eaten the Fried Chicken basket (and fries) and drank the pitcher of Pink lemonade at Green Haven. I have been to Kevin's training room! I have enjoyed the hospitality of JerryG's family, putted with a blade putter and friended JerryG and KevCarter on Facebook.""


Dowels and Plane lines, check! Standard Address with a baby attitude WITH OPEN FRONT HIP, check. The Plane, The Swing- the Shoulder Plane Shift with Centrifugal Force- relax- March- Front Shoulder is dragged by Back Hip straight forward to Plane line.

BACKWARD LAG FELT IN PP#3=ON PLANE!!!!

LAG LAG LAG=THE PLANE -FEEL THE LAG
-FEEL THE LAG -THE MOP -THE BROOM -
DRAG THE BACK SHOULDER STRAIGHT FORWARD(OB) - WITH PIVOT KEEPING THE LEFT WRIST UP (DARYL)-

The Pressure Points are the key!!! LYNN SAYS HOLD THE BALL LIKE A QUESTION MARK IN BOTH HANDS STEADY HEAD

Your inputs as well as the others have been in the incubator for a while.
I have been reading the book regarding the pivots involvement in Basic Motion. My conclusion, wrong or right, is that there IS/WAS a reason for Homer to propose the Zero Pivot in Basic Motion.

Here comes some quotes from the book:

"without the Key of Educated Hands per Chapters 4 and 5, more information only means more confusion."
"The Hands are the “Command Post” for all Feel processing."
" Educate your Hands (9-0) to execute the Delivery Path "
"key to control of the Golf Club is Educated Hands."

Well you get it.

With a zero pivot, you must educate your hands.

Don´t you think that Homer would have recommended a little pivot in the basic motion, if he thought that IT(the pivot) would be to an advantage for the process of educating the hands?

It is a whole other story if there are ANY tourplayer that chips/pitchs with zero pivot.

But trust me on this one - they have EDUCATED HANDS

Correct heal palm grip, mid-body hands, stadard address, quiet feet, knees and head ,
LAG THE CLUB AROUND UNTIL THE TENSION CREATED BY THE LAG IS FELT BY THE HEAVINESS OF THE BACK ELBOW POINTING DOWN, AND THEN DRAG THE HEAVY ELBOW SLIGHTLY DOWN AND ALLOW YOUR FRONT HIP TO SHIFT FORWARD SLIGHTLY IN RESPONSE. WHEN THE LAG. VERTICALLY UNCOCKS THE LEFT WRIST (IT CAN HAPPPEN QUICKLY) SIMPLY WATCH THE CLUBHEAD BLUR IN BALANCE.

THIS is Elbow Plane (mostly) double-shift, non-super hero stuff but I can do it at will and the Sweet Spot. LAG PULVERIZES THE BALL! A slow wet heavy elbow mop shifted just An inch or two will send a driver 240 yards splitting the fairway if you maintain your balance with a Stationary Head.

I'm thinking that the Shoulder Plane, after I throw my hands over my back shoulder like Freddy Couples, gets me 260k.




Happy Father's Day to my friends and older brothers in the game! Thanks!

LIke many of you, I am benefitting from Lynn's presentation of TGM and harder fairways. On a par 71, my last 4 rounds:

48,46
41,39
53,42
42,43

My driver started to roll out more than 270 yards and my start down waggles have been huge. When this clicked for my swing, I suddenly found myself under mature trees and out of fairways. I started being more selective with my driver use and my 53 shrunk to a 42.

A flat left wrist with a correct grip, standard address, mid -body hands, and the left-right-left of the MacDonald drills are components. Balance and start-down waggles followed by balance are other essentials.

I practice putts and putting chips with alignment rods.

Putting this stuff to good use is such a dream come true, eh City? Who ever woulda thunk guys like us would be hitting through the fairway and over the green. Never in my life have I ever hit it too far. Geesh! I even use the 4-wood (ditched the 3 wd.) and hybrids off the tee on tight holes.

On another note, Tuesday I watched a little of Kev Carter giving a lesson to the 20 yr. old son of a friend of mine. In a few minutes the kid was hitting laser like wedges and 8 irons.
I saw the dad at the golf course Thursday and he said the kid still hasn't wiped the smile off his face. He ran home, grabbed his dad and took him to the range to show him.
Nice stuff K.C.

[innercityteacher]

2 check-up too early. chips. (Forgot the 1-2 rhythm) for two bogies, 4 chips to under 4inches for 4 pars, a too cute drive and a tree limb for a 7, and. I forgot to open my driver face twice for a bogie and a double for a 43/35.

6 pars in a row including a sandy and pars on our two toughest holes, a greedy put for a birdie turned a bogie, another tree branch for a bogie, and a careless chip deflected downhill for a double 40/36.

Well, it has been a brutal summer personally, but a good summer professionally with a new high school next to University City. Given my own analytical nature, wanted to break down the Power package and learn how my Machine works at the most basic level. For example, I now have a better understanding of the Pulley System and how it is allowed to operate smoothly by the Hula-Hula of the hips leaving the head stationary.

Does anyone else notice as Martin Chuck describes in a video on YouTube and as Lynn showed me in my lessons, that a strong grip has benefits for a slower swing. Mr. Chuck goes so far as to suggest closing the club-face and re-gripping with it closed so there is less deflection and a more penetrating shot! This technique was shown to me as a chip by Lynn, and now it is a help in the full swing.

Good to hear all is well Patrick!!!

Jerry and I have started a Cuscowilla fund of our own. Maybe you can join us very early next spring? That would be FANTASTIC. OBLEFT???

Martin Chuck is a member here, wonderful teacher and a great guy. The majority of his teaching fits right in with YODA. There are MANY great players with strong grips Patrick, Homer gave us tons of options, use what works for you, just so it fits with your other selected components. Just always keep that great foundation you put together with YODA. If you start to feel lost, refer to those great videos he put together with you!

Power Accumulator # 4 and a Flat Left LOCKED Wrist get thrown by the Hula-Hula motion and a nice little fade allows the ball to be found and hit again with power.
