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 an 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?
