Yoda does not recommend the closed-closed variation for hitting. I have talked to him, and he will comment further in this thread.
Regarding my personal square-open combination, the TGM player can change any stroke component to create a different result. Because of my open stance (10-5-B), I automatically create a Delayed Pivot (10-12-C). In other words, I have created a restricted backstroke (relative to the Free Turn of 10-12-A) and a free follow-through.
It gives me a very robotic feel, as if my legs are stuck in concrete. I almost have a zero pivot feel.
Your preference for Square-Open has my attention, Ted. Personally, I've been migrating in the opposite direction toward Square-Closed. I'm looking forward to more comments from you and Yoda on this topic.
The Stance Line will affect only the degree of Pivot Motion during the Backstroke Turn or Follow-Through (10-12). It should never affect the Plane Line.
Isn't that the beauty of Mr Kelleys work, the variations and how they work for each individual. What may provide better adherence to the three imperatives for one may not for another. Get with you AI and find your stroke pattern!
How far downplane does your right shoulder move to start the downswing (first stage rocket) before the right arm drives (second stage rocket) the #1pp all the way down until low point is obliterated?
JG33,
While we await Dr. YodasLuke, let me apply this tourniquet:
You obliterate the Impact Point Plane Line. You only touch the Low Point Plane Line.
Unless, of course, the Impact Point is the Low Point. In which case, you obliterate neither.
Dear Yodasluke,
I was curiouos about your thoughts on how far downplane does the right shoulder move on the downswing before the right arm straightens?
Delaware,
I am a 4 barrel hitter. The startdown takes up the slack. With regard to inertia, the club is trying to stay at rest. #4 is loaded momentarily to do the job of changing directions. Then I destroy the ground by trying to drive the ball to Bejing. I feel like my four barrel aplication is like .44 magnums, not .22's.
Who says you can't shake the axis of the earth with a golf club??
Dear Yodasluke,
Driving the ball to Bejing is a great analogy to hitting Down. Do you feel the #2 accumulator really uncock from impact to low point?

I do feel uncocking, as a result of #1.
Ted,
Straightline delivery and snap release?
Thanks
R
10-23-A Straight line
and
10-24-B Non-Automatic Random Sweep huge majority of the time, although I've experimented with 10-24-D Non-Automatic Snap Release on the range
YodasLuke, there seems to be a popular conception that almost all hitters will be predisposed to fading the ball. I tried a bit of hitting a few days ago and seemed to move plenty to the left. Was i simply offplane etc or can hitters be natural drawers of the ball?
