Well, I'm lost for words. "Say it ain't so, Joe"

Innercityteacher understands, OMG, we talked on the phone for 60 seconds and he understands, he was very surprised - never knew it could be - but he can now Hinge with the best of them.

There's no secret, it's all in the book. If all of us don't understand this "Basic Alignment", "Right Forearm Motion" and "90 degree Wedge Alignment" then communicating is very difficult. Understanding TGM - Possible, Applying TGM - not possible.

If you get a Bucket with Handle, 2 "Red Sticky Dots" and a Dowel Rod, Call me. I'll walk you through it, painlessly. Or, wait for the "Video".

...then anyone can get it!

Really Daryl, they need the bucket and the red dot. I had to go to the range and do lots of swings with the Base Line of the Plane marked with alignment sticks first with a bucket and Extensor Action and then with a club doing chips and then Acquired Motion where the Wheel Rim really jumped out and the Finish Swivel really was powerful. Another move that helped was leading my Axis Tilt with my left knee as I read about in Nick Faldo's "Winning Golf" many years ago and other books, and have observed in lots of videos of both Hogan and Sneed. That Axis Tilt allows the right forearm to drop in front of the right hip as the shoulder slides down. The inside of the forearms both point up as does the right wrist as the hands slide to Both Arms Straight. Straightening the right arm provides all the Extensor action needed and the slightest "flip of the hips" from the front knee allows me to strike a high draw if Swinging and a power fade if Hitting further than I have ever struck the ball before!

Ball position is varied by the width of stance so other shots can be played. The more I practice with keeping the bucket level through the RFT and Pivot, the more effortless the shots.

Since I do have an artificial hip and a shorter front leg, I do expect my Pivot to be a little less robust but that's why God made senior shafts, hot clubs, TGM and LBG!
