Homer created a language and a system that enables us to differentiate and analyse various hinge actions and a myriad of other important details. If he had tied his analysis to to various methods for learning different hinge actions it might even have been patentable method. Agreed. To clarify, I said it that way because I imagine Hinge Action has been employed for as long as golf has been played. If unknowingly. Homer's contribution was to decode it geometrically. Define it precisely. Bring it out of the darkness. Bernt do you think a feathery with its different c.o.r (whatever that is) would make for a more profound ball response to Hinge Action? Im going to look through my old golf books to try find something similar to hinging. We need Drew or somebody familiar with the with the books from the days of wooden shafts to help maybe. Anybody got any leads to hinge action being mentioned in other golf instruction books. Id swear there's something in one of Arnie or Jack's books. Last edited by O.B.Left : 10-16-2010 at 05:47 PM.
