I dont want to get into any mud slinging so Ill tread carefully . Frankly It's not necessary. Alex , Gregg M , Ben D are all great proponents of Homers work, instructors and gentlemen but there are differences in their personal patterns, and what/how they teach. But its frustrating for a newby to see or read one thing and discover another guy is saying just the opposite! This used to frustrate me a lot. Not so much anymore.

Lynn teaches Homers Alignments combined with "motion" as per McDonald , Melhourne and a side order of Runyans short game methodology. Gregg McHatton has a fine fine game and swing . Its free, flowing , swinging and to my eye anyways he manipulates an Angled Hinge ... great pattern . He may hang onto Right Wrist bend forever! Or try to , I dont know . My point is that whilst Lynn considers free wheeling with Angled a fine pattern (I have a post of his on file where he says just this) , he taught me to free wheel with Horizontal , with a bent left/ flat right post Finish Swivel. I know this doesnt jibe with what a lot of other GSED's have said before ...... but I like it personally, having gone the arched , hold off route previously. Its what I see on TV for the most part. You've got options though. Heck you should be able to Angle and Horizontal at will for full shots ... Hogan did . If you watch closely , when Lynn is working with Jeff Hull in their premium video , Lynn can be heard to remark on how Jeff can hold on to his right wrist bend as long as anybody he's ever seen . Its meant as a compliment and it is one . That aside with me he changed that to bent left /flat right at Finish Swivel.

And it feels right .
