And to say that Momentum Transfer, a hip bump and any pulling action is the wrong way to impact a golf ball is not the way to teach TGM.
There is a "hip bump" or clearing of the hip in both hitting and swinging. There must be, or there will be round housing. As of now, I believe Tomasello is saying the action of the right forearm sets off this motion of the hips (perfectly in line with chapter 5). For me, the point of emphasis in my question was "the body IMMEDIATELY....responds (to the action of the right forearm)."

As for the right forearm power in a swinging procedure, that is toughie, as unfortunately, niether, Mr. Kelley or Mr. Tomasello are with us. That said, I've seen the results of Lynn Blake and Ted Fort, and I do believe the results of DG.
