I'm sure you remember that we discussed Two ways to bend (Cock) the Right Elbow and Raise the Right Arm during the Backstroke (after the Take-away and Start-up). One way is so that the Hitter can Load the Primary Lever and One way is so that the Swinger can Load the Secondary Lever. It's pretty simple. "Magic of the Right Forearm."

Here's the Big Deal: End of Backstroke for a Swinger practicing Acquired Motion occurs when the Right Forearm becomes Parallel to the Ground. THE CLUBSHAFT is also Parallel to the ground. About Chest High.

Where is the Right Elbow? It's Away from the Body. The distance depends on the Swing Plane Angle. Shorter Clubs will have the Elbow closer than Longer Clubs.

During the Hand Acceleration Phase, the Right Elbow and #3 PP travel the same distance, 1:1 ratio. During the Clubhead Acceleration Phase, the Ratio between the #3 PP and Clubhead is 1:5 (zero #3 Acc) and can be as high as 1:50 (Snap Release with a Driver Length Club).

It's easy to get the Pulley working correctly. Acquired Motion is to make sure that you get the Straight Line of Hand Acceleration Correct. Anyone who holds the Right Elbow Close to their Torso "Skips" the Hand Acceleration Phase of the Downstroke Acceleration Sequence and will not bring a Lagging Clubhead into Impact.

Right dots, alignment sticks, bucket, wide stance, Basic Motion oh, a small pulley! Extensor Action, RFT to stretch the left arm parallel to the ground the right hand and left arm feels to STAY PERFECTLY STILL AND A SLIGHT BUMP WORKS THE PULLEY WITH SPEED! The lefty facing me asked me if I ever missed as my shots were at or near the center targets for the whole large bucket.

The problem is that I saw a guy at the range a week ago hitting like that and crushing the ball! It seemed like his hand never moved but he crushed the ball!

So my question is : Is my puny 150 yard 7 iron or 220 yard drive, down the middle with range balls on a 60 degree day a result of not holding my grip loosely enough or not applying PP# 3 correctly or not hitting more with my Pivot and right shoulder or my 54 year old slow turning? Or is it a result of only going to Acquired Motion with non-custom clubs?

I have realized Daryl why you say that it will no longer take 5 holes and 30 shots to warm up! The RFT to left arm straight is like laying the club right on the plane and firing! Obviously ball position and the right shafts make a difference! Catching my 8 degree SMT regular shaft on the upswing made the ball really change the flight and distance if I kept My frame still and stance was wide. I did hit the ball further with a softer shaft with high kick point.

Anyway, I am quite pleased Daryl with knowing the "Endless Pulley" and how to set up so regularly on plane.

It is amazing to me how important the RIGHT FOREARM ANGLE OF APPROACH is to basic setup and the entire stroke! It seems to me that the waggle is sort of a preview of Impact Fix, a preview of Acquired Motion, and a preview of the Pivot!

And, this feels just like the correct strikes I made with Lynn!
