And like what Tom said, if you keep turning, you can hit as hard as you want with your right hand without the right wrist breaking down. It is the same as in the baseball swing.

A lot of things is just an illusion.

BTW, I'm just a beginner still trying to find out what works.

Evershed uses the baseball drill to teach students how to swing on plane, and to prevent the pitfalls of being off plane. Delaware told me in a PM several months ago to use Evershed's Knowledge video as my textbook for 'magic of the right forearm' swinging, and I would suggest that everyone else that is learning this pattern do the same.

I scored 79 on Friday with windy conditions using Eversheds pattern, and I just creamed the ball with a tour player-like trajectory. It was cool being able to play a draw that could sail under the wind, and drop softly on to the greens.


Evershed seems to focus on a different set of components than Tomaselo. He is all about keeping the right hand in it bent back condition, and swinging left. Mark's version of TT's extensor action drill is interesting, and it kind of shows you the relationship between his pattern and TT's. I've started using TT's extensor action drill while holding a golf club in my left hand, making the drill more task oriented. Mark's pattern seems like a switters stroke.

Good Golfling to you all.
