Homer Kelley felt his book could be used as a reference for all questions regarding Golf Stroke Mechanics. The answers, he said, were there, either stated explicitly or implied.

In the book, he advised Golfers to "Take all Strokes to the Both Arms Straight Position." (6-H-0-C).

O.K. Both arms straight agreed or there equivalent right? Ed Furgol, Calvin Peete, Ben Doyle, Lynn Blake.

The "...end of a short Chip Shot" (2-G) is then, by definition, to the end of the Follow-Through (Both Arms Straight per your own reference, 8-11).

You left some out. 2-G Stop at the end of a short chip shot-the club at about 45 degrees. H Hinging yada yada yada toe along P line. Angled 45 degs. Vert 90 degs. Yada yada yada about over and under roll. Practice these alignments...

8-11 Follow Through Section 11-this section covers the interval between separation and the both arms straight position AS DETERMINED BY THE SHOULDER POSITION AT IMPACT. (my bold)

That 2-G reference sounds like a way for the student to see the different hinge actions.
8-11 makes it clear that 45 degrees is NOT a mandatory.

Also, if a player never straightens his or her left arm, then when the right straitens for those folk would then be considered the end of the follow through?





Again, you argue Position Golf and semantics.

I argue Alignment Golf with its Hinge Action Rhythm and On Plane Finish Swivel (2-G and 7-10).

Look at the Clubface for goodness sake.

My point again is you are calling this 'later than follow through' position, follow through. And that his hinge action was faulty. If you watch the video, one frame earlier is his follow through and he has horizontal hinged with the toe of the club pointing along the plane line.

And again, really not starting any kind of war just saw something that was incorrect. Everyone knows you know the book. You just didn't get the opportunity to see the video of the swing I guess.
