there is a great subject on this.. on Dana's website.
but basically, pitch elbow.. Once the elbow sticks onto the body during the downswing, the straightening of the elbow will influence the release of the hips . That way, there is no such thing as Over-acceleration of the hip or elbow.
Still its very important to start the swing from ground up. the knees , hip , torso, shoulder then the arm , and pulls the club. this is especially important for swingers.
Right arm swinging... to me its a bad excuse for using the pivot correctly. And there are also a few keys to executing this correctly .
Just some of the great stuffs i learn.. hope it helps you some Kevin.

Thanks for the help Nuke!
I will find it on Dana's forum. Did you see the pics of little Angie, one of his students that he posted this morning? Absolutely amazing little golf swing!!!

Some great stuff in this thread which I found under the search "pulling left!" Based on my new insights given to me during four days spent with Lynn, as I am beginning to try to apprehend the thousands of subtle insights Lynn produces in an hour , I would like to discuss the more or most effective ways to keep the Wedges and Power Package Intact through Impact (videos will be added later).
As I have recently realized, feeling the Pressure Points LAG or become heavy with the weight of the club head is an indicator that a golfer is On Plane and can move the Sweet Spot On Plane through Impact to Finish. That is our goal except for some Specialty Shots.
So, for these maximum results, the LAG of the pet dog or the mop must be felt and maintained through the Swing or Hit. Simple right?
I was blown away by Lynn in numerous ways but maintaining the Plane through out the Swing or Hit was front and center as was the resulting Power and Precision.
The MacDonald March and Exercises set us and our Power Package On Plane and can effectively help us transport the Sweet Spot to Finish. But are there other thoughts or Components of a Swing that might be as effective in maintaining the LAG in the Down Swing?
There might be a few thousand!
Let us agree for the sake of friendly discussion that Sustaining the LAG is aided greatly by keeping the Back Elbow or Trail Elbow Stuck to our side in The Down Swing. ( We are not speaking of Hitting here. I'm not qualified to do so and all my comments are really just speculation and personal experience. My comments are descriptive not proscriptive.)
Daryl has suggested that keeping the Left Wrist/Hand facing the sky during the Down Swing is effective. I have tried it and it seems to keep the Back Elbow glued to the side and helps Sustain the Lag. I think Lynn shows this "Bullet Proof Vest" in his "Driving" video, though he is Hitting there. Cool!
I have a problem though in doing that. When I Elevate my Lead hand, my right elbow functions like a baseball swing. Sometimes I snobberknock the ball and it is way cool. Sometimes I slice or hook the ball into the neighboring cow pasture, lake Michigan, Lake Ontario, or Lake Minnetonka (nod to the Minnesota and other Fellowship of the TGM memebers). Not Cool!
I was showing a friend Basic and Acquired Motion the other day and thinking about Lynn and Balance and "quiet knees and quiet feet," and I decided to turn my chest sharply left once I felt the LAG. I felt Pressure Point # 4 and a good Back Elbow at my rib cage like never before! I hit several pro-trajectory 5 woods almost 220 with range balls. I brought the rain! Wow! However, sometimes I hit sceamers, left or right.
Ideas?

I recognize some of it, but I hadn't any TGM references to what I was doing because of my inability to understand the book, but I'm reading your version with great interest and I'm trying to understand more and more.

Air, I have watched Lynn's tapes so often that I visualize the book as I read it.
First it's video, then search the Forums, looking for images I can follow, then a part in the book or pm's to friends who explain it in their own ways.
If your Back Elbow is at your side you will feel the Lag and you are On Plane and then you must transport the club On Plane to move the ball effectively via a Swing or Hit. But correct mechanics introduce new feelings and thoughts so we need to talk and research this.
Ask questions!

So when I Pivot back from Adjusted Address, And I'm careful to Trace, and feel myback elbow pointing down and well away from my side, and square the face, I Slide the Front. Hip, the Back Elbow drops smoothly Down. It almost feels like I have greese on my elbow, and then I push the swing, or Paddlewheel.
If I trust the slide and feel the Elbow ride the Plane Down, I can thrust PP #1 hard and man, that Angle Hinge really elevates the ball!
