A rough preselection of power that gives a certain range of possible distances for the shot you’re about to make. One accumulator = short distance, two accumulators = medium distance, three accumulators = long distance, four accumulators (in case you want to use that) = exceptional distance. I also understand why Lag Pressure would be second. Sensing the Lag Pressure to meter acceleration. One of Homer’s key concepts. I am not so sure about Release Interval. Are we talking about the difference between Full Sweep, Random Sweep and Snap Release here? Of course that will effect shot distance. You might want to go for Automatic Snap Release on Full Shots, but you'll almost certainly employ Full Sweep Release on Putts and Chip Shots. But other than that, I find it rather difficult to precisely regulate shot distance by adjusting the Release Interval. Pivot and Arm Motion are ranked fourth and fifth. Surprisingly low. Is the idea here that, preferably, you should use the same amount of Pivot and the same amount of Arm Motion for various distances (and only vary Power Accumulators, Lag Pressure and Release Interval), rather than shorten the Pivot or shorten the Arm Motion? So, for example, for Pitch Shots of various lengths you would always use the same amount of Pivot and the same Arm Motion, say a Standard Pivot and a Punch Stroke to Right Forearm level to the ground (and not a shorter arm motion for the shorter pitch shots and a longer arm motion for the longer pitch shots)? What does Release Motions (# 6) refer to? Is this about the difference between Line and Circle Delivery Paths? Last edited by Par71 : 01-03-2012 at 05:09 AM.
