This looks good to me man. Just one thing. Relax the right arm a bit. I would bet that your Right Forearm is not in the same plane as the shaft. Relax the arm and bend the elbow a little.

Now here's your home work with your camera. This will be illustrative for a lot of people. Get your hammer. Put YOUR NORMAL LEFT HAND GRIP ON THE HAMMER as we see here WITH THE HEAD OF THE HAMMER FACING LEFT. HAMMER A WALL TO YOUR LEFT. With the grip you have YOU CANNOT WILL NOT NO WAY IN HELL HIT THE WALL SQUARE IF YOU ROLL YOUR LEFT HAND. Right?

Now start the process over . . . BUT THIS TIME WITH A LEFT HAND THAT IS "WEAKER" or VERTICAL. Hammer the wall to your left. Guess what? If you DON'T ROLL (Swivel), YOU CANNOT WILL NOT NO WAY IN HELL HIT THE WALL SQUARE.

Seeing and feeling is believing dude. This is what you HAVE TO DO WITH THE GOLF CLUB. Your release motion MUST COMPLY WITH YOUR GRIP TYPE. See the pics of Lee Buck? Note how his left hand REMAINS TURNED TO THE PLANE? Why? If he ROLLED like every pop instructor says, he'd be in the left woods where the elephants go to die.

What is amazing about this all is Mr. K GOT IT RIGHT!!! The man was a GENIUS!!!!

Fog is clearing
 

Actually my right elbow is tucked closer to my body with the right forearm on plane - a bit hard to see from that pic, will post another one down the line (this is the first thing along with my grip my coach changed).

Homework sounds interesting !!

This is all starting to make sense... on my good shots i don't feel the release at all (or feel that i've had to conciously do anything to square the face)

Hammer in hand. I'm all ears and very curious.
is this only for hitters btw?

OK Teach, Here's my homework
 

OK here's the results of my homework, hope i got this right

Pic 1 is my normal grip, no wrist turn = hammer square
Pic 2 is my normal grip, left wrist turned = hammer points way left
Pic 3 is "weak" grip, wrist turned = hammer square





What this is telling me is that if I have my current grip + left wrist rotation then everythings going left into the bushes?

More or less. :)

What's that saying? Left of Ralph Nader.

Woo!!!!! This is fantastic!!!! As you can see pictures don't tell no lies!!!! If your LEFT HAND IS TURNED ON THE GRIP you DO NOT WANT TO ROLL!!!

With your Turned grip to hit the wall square you COCK AND UNCOCK ONLY. But with the vertical grip YOU HAVE TO ROLL TO HIT THE WALL SQUARE.

Thanks for taking these pics man! The Golfing Machine should come with a video. Very nice!

YES!!! YES!!!! YES!!!!

This is the FEEL of ANGLED HINGING!!! Which is a MUST with your grip my friend from down-under. Check this quote out . . .

,“Basic Hinging” has the following characteristics of appearance and feel. Between the “Full Roll” of Horizontal Hinging and the “No Roll” of Vertical Hinging, Angled Hinging takes on a “Half Roll” motion. While Horizontal Hinging retains the “Feel” of a “Roll”, Angled Hinging takes on a “No Roll” Feel and Vertical Hinging is executed as a “Reverse Roll”.

BTW in your description of pic 3.....nothing is Turned there (going by TGM definitions).

Correct. That is Bergsey gripping the hammer with a 10-2-B grip with Vertical left hand requiring swivel to strike the wall square.

Only if you are executing hinge action as a swivel.

Hinge action is in effect from impact to separation. With the stronger lead hand grip, your 'finish swivel' happens AFTER the ball is gone. That said, you can still execute a horizontal hinge (closing only), with the stronger grip, you just wouldn't want to execute a 'release swivel' - then you'd be headed left.

Horizontal hinge, to me, feels like a very 'level' left hand frisbee toss. Important not to confuse that feel with the 'roll' feel of the release and finish swivels, which is easy to do if you are using a weaker grip, it tends to feel like one long, SMOOTH roll.

This is a confusing point in TGM definitions of hinge and swivel, which Yoda has helped clarify for me.
