Even acceleration

Yes, that is one of the ideas to generate lag pressure.

Accelerating the hands is the goal and this translates into a constant/steady pressure feel in #3PP (which is the one to closely monitor).

I love the sport car analogy: Think of a car accelerating evenly: as long as it accelerates you feel pressure of the seat in your back. When the car reaches its maximum speed, there is no more acceleration and no pressure in your back.

Overacceleration would be like flooring the gaz pedal: you are violently struck in your seat, the car reaches maximum speed quickly: But, even if the car goes 200mph you don't feel pressure in your back anymore...
This is good to win a car race and very bad in a golf stroke!

It means that you must not reach the maximum speed your hands are capable of going early in the downswing or you won't be able to keep them accelerating to both arms straight.

I think one of the greastest ways to learn is to play a entire round of golf with acquired motion obviously the longer clubs from 6 iron on up would demand patience but it would be like Tiger hitting knock down shots yrs ago when he made his 3rd swing change forget the score get caught up into what the hands are doing and the pressure points.

Nice to sit back and listen

I don't know about the rest of the forum, but I am enjoying your conversations :salut: .

I agree that is a good exercise. An additional thought along those lines is to play the game "How many accumulators?" Most people employ too many around the greens, and at times too few from the tee! I have experience great improvement as an example from 85-100 yards by using just two (4 & 2). I believe HK said that a satifactory game can be had with just two barrels. My bunt golf stroke is a 1/3 hit! This stuff is fun! Execution be damned I just like to know what I am trying to do!

Speaking of accumulators. I rank the "discovery" of #3 as one of the most important in my TGM journey...make that golf journey. When I realized that the left hand grip ideally needed to be under the heel pad...snug in the hook of hamate...this changed the rhythm of my stroke...forever. It also permitted a full left wrist cock...with less left wrist arch at end...all good.

While you are working on basic motion start keeping a record of how far the ball flies with various clubs, that way it will have a real course application immediately e.g. my basic motion SW flies 9 paces. I do not think 9 paces anymore...I just hit it 9 paces.

Hey, you're asking some great questions. Next you'll probably be wondering how to get the bent right arm from Top to its Release Point? Well your just going to have to figure that one out for yourself, Buster cause there's no way I'm telling you about the "On Plane Right Shoulder". OOPs.

Would that be the start down waggle (left hip slide)? Mine kinda happens naturally when I try to create pressure in my #4pp. That is usually my downswing thought when I'm using my swinging stroke.

Right on the money!
Hip slide moves the right shoulder down plane and gives you enough right arm to do the good stuff.
