Agreed, dodger, with certain reservations (and observations) which I will offer in a later post.

For now, I like your diirection. Let's take the thread there and move away from any 'instructor specific' comment. Otherwise, per our Posting Rules, we will have to close this thread.

Fair enough Boss but how can these motions be considered junk when they help alignments and give compression
I can understand the point of D plane and some flip going on ( as long as player controls them ) working but surely the pressure they exert on the ball is ordinary
Even if it takes a year to be able to take the motion into a full swing the player will be better off cause they won't need a different band-aid every time

Pistol,

I'm at dinner now, but just know that Sketch 1-L (and its 21 points) is the answer. Short Shots or Long, for any given Line of Compression (2-C-0), there must be a common Geometry (1-L #20). The only variant is Power (2-M-2).

Homer Kelley invited all comers who would challenge his work. He asked only one thing, the same thing he asked of himself:
"Prove it."

Ok guys so here is an outsiders take on the situation.

We dont care what some governed body says when it relates to the yellow book. Sorry to be so blunt it just sounds like a stupid situation. Let me ask this, did they ask any of you "guys doing the work" about it?

To me it sounds really like I have to do basic motion standing up on a pogo stick. Is that next?

Elvis is dead, too, if no one knew.

FYI - I saw Elvis this morning at a 7-11 in Cedar Park, Texas. Alive and well!

was he practicing basic motion or was he flipping?

Sorry, Elvis
He looked a bit blue from all the suede-ing and bobbing he was doing...he was practically coming out of his shoes!
