I think Yoda would also agree with the above -- that the Angle of Approach procedure is usually excluded for the Swinger.

The nature of the Hitter's Right Arm Thrust drives the clubhead in more of a linear fashion out towards right field. Swinger's do not have this tendency, hence they don't use Angle of Approach.

To basically open up a can of worms, wouldn't the Tomasello stroke (notice neither hit nor swing ) be able to use the Angle of Approach, because he adds right forearm thrust?

IF it is a Right Arm Swing, the Right Arm is truly swinging, so it does not produce a linear motion out to right field, which is caused by the right triceps thrust (hitting).

My post above cries out for video. A question answered with a precision unknown to the world of conventional golf instruction and supported with video.

Will you guys support a premium site? If so, what is reasonable? No kidding. This site needs you. For the best golf instruction pieces in the world...what is reasonable?

Yoda,
Imo, you've demonstrated that you have a geat product on this website. It takes a lot of time and energy to produce it and I certainly would pay for access. It seems like $50 a year or so makes it affordable and valuable to me... this would be as it exists now. New or more features might be worth a bit more.....

I have a question.

I am as big a TGM fan as anyone. I remember 4 years ago when it was just me, Todd, Randy, PB (whom btw knows the book as well as anyone this side of Yoda), Chuck and a select few others. So...trust me, this question is not meant to be negative.

But seriously.

How many on here can actually Feel a rotating lag pressure point? Please - everyone respond.


Thanks.

Mark me down in the "no feel" camp... truthfully, as a new hitter (1 yr.)when I swing I feel #1... that's it. Even on the range when trying to feel #3 ... I was unable.

Hitters using the Cross-Line procedure -- the Angle of Approach Visual Equivalent (of the Geometric Plane Line) -- should direct the Lag Pressure Thrust through the inside-aft quadrant. As in both of the above On Line procedures, the Clubhead will pass through the inside-aft quadrant of the Ball.

Makes me think of a tape I heard of Mr Kelley...

Anyone know how he came up with Angle of Apprach and 'off to right field'?

Hint.......16???

Hit chips, pitches and full swings with your normal grip, but with right forefinger and thumb fully extended. This will sensitise your PP#3 ten-fold.

Pat, you are talking about feeling pp3 on the startdown, right. I can't imagine you not feeling it on impact. But...

16? Is this the clubhead on the plane line but clubface "out" to right field at impact?

Lets let it ride for a day....answer to be revealed.....

How Homer came up with 'Angle of Approach' and 'out to right field'....

Ahhh.... that rings a bell..."Yoda's Secret"... I remember it from last year when I first started getting involved with TGM... thank you for reminding me, Tong, I will try some of that today...75 and crystal clear in coastal NC, with just a hint of a breeze.

Nope, what I've told you ain't Yoda's Secret. You can't really use Yoda's Secret with full length shots. But you can with the method I showed you. Yoda's Secret is good for chipping.
