Nothing is actually thrown. The secondary lever assembly begins to accel. to impact. (i did'nt explain that very well).

#3, this is a point of confusion.
I may be confusing something here. If we let the pivot transport the power package into the release area (which we do), keeping the hands and club lagging, the I don't think that the #4 accumulator is being fully used. If we increase the spacing in a more sequenced release, then accumulators will be felt more like 4,2,3. With greater emphasis on #4. The #4 accumulator is more fully employed. It (#4) steals momentum from the pivot and begins moving the primary lever assembly. (the pivot actually feels like it transfered momentum to the left arm). The confusion for me is that now we seemingly have 2throws in one stoke pattern. Shoulder and wrist. It feels very powerfull and sounds dead perfect on the ball. I think that this procedure uses (is) a right arm swing but I'm not pulling with the right arm. I'm not sure though. The ball does travel about 5 yards more, and there seems to be a greater left hand/clubface contol feeling. The acuracy is better too. I think this is a result of the pivot slowing down thus giving the hands more time to conrol the pivot. I can also determine/contol when the left starts to come off the body. I can hold it untill just before release or from just after the initial hip accelleration. This is different from what you and I have as a standard pattern. Concerning your answer #4, mine do too.

However, and this is the big one...it works just as well with chipping and short pitches. Hmm... i've been working with right arm only chipping which is why I think it is more of a right arm swing. I'll keep reading and studying.
Any new feelings / patterns to report back on?
