You crawl, before walk...walk befoe run, etc, etc. Homer Kelly truly believed that one could more closely monitor the correct feelings when doing short shots (Basic Motion) first. As you can do this consistently, you then progress to Pitches (Acquired Motion). Often times, we want to try and make our 'new motion' by doing full swings at full speed. As I have come to know, the more I engrain the feeling and motions in these short shots, it begins to become more automatic in the longer swings. As soon as you start to lose the proper feelings in the longer swings, go back to the shorter motions...much easier to monitor!
