YAHOOOOOOOOOOO

it just hit me like a tonne of bricks !!! in the last few minutes,

after spending time today (at work ), swinging a yard & a half long piece of aluminium shaft ( basically a Dowel equivelant )... it hit me..what i should be trying to achieve in a golf swing.

view the left arm, club shaft, club head, right arm...as a structure, much like a you might view some scaffolding as a structure.... and use the pivot to propel the 'structure' backwards in the backswing.and then forwards in the downswing ...alll on plane of course...BUT..the important piece being..that the "structure" never changes! ( apart from the bend aquired in the right wrist in the take-away/ backswing ...and the cocking/ uncocking of the left wrist/right elbow )...but the overall structure does NOTHING, it is propelled by the pivot and remains in its shape.

hope this helps....cos this image/concept has sure helped me.

".....the "structure" never changes!"
"the overall structure does NOTHING, it is propelled by the pivot and remains in its shape."

The structure does change "going back" and during "Release".
But, you, as a machine during execution, do not want (or intend) to change it once formed by "sustaining the lag" with constant (pivot or whatever)acceleration. The "Law", instead of you, is gonna do the rest.

Of course, it's the simpliest and easiest with only pivot rotation .
