This is the most interesting discussion I've read for quite some time.
Popcorn and the yellow book is out.
The geometry Ive discussed is not mine. I read a couple of particularly interesting posts on this forum and sought out the man who wrote them. I got on a plane and flew for 2 hours to see him. He spent two years researching the visual equivalents , the Angle primarily and graciously shared some of his findings with me. Not all of them by any means. He poured over everything Homer wrote and said about the Angle and had a "eureka I've found it" or epiphany kind of moment. He can display the various procedures and has used the Angle as discussed above in pro golf tourneys. He can use the angle or the arc while Hitting. He can see a curved blur or a straight one while hitting. He knows how to produce both and what the benefits and disadvantages to each of them are. He knows what component changes are necessary and why for each procedure. He can teach the Swingers Arc too.
I have given a lot of thought to his findings and tried to build upon my understanding of it and for that reason may have most likely offered some things which are not congruent with his line of thinking. I dunno. I do make mistakes. For the most part the things Ive discussed can be found in a few very brief posts by the man himself , on this board. Its more alluded to than outlined but its there or here, I should say. I hope I haven't touched on anything that would be considered proprietary . If so I apologize, that was not my intention.
There is more, much more ... things I know of and things I have no idea about most likely.
Anyone interested should get a lesson from the man himself , Mr Ted Fort , Fortified Golf. I owe him much. Yoda too of course. Guys I admire and guys Im proud to call friends.
I figured out the snap release I'll tell u the little trick I use. The turned and cocked left wrist pull the turned fanned on plane right forearm at the ball as if the right forearm extended all the way down as if it were the club meanwhile the cocked left wrist is turned on plane 90 degrees to the right forearm until the instant swivel There ya go that's the secret almost as f the left knuckles aim the right forearm club turned on plane. of course you dont need to snap release so...

Nice sounds like Drag Loading , Longitudinal Acceleration . Do you feel the tug of this at the #2 pp. The last three fingers of the left hand say... I do. And also in the right hand too. As if both hands were getting pulled .
The pulling by the pivot of the arms and turned to plane hands you discuss can be found in the description of the Wrist Throw Release Trigger. Some feel the pull primarily at the last three fingers in the left hand , some at both hands. The uncocking of the #2 angle happens while the left and right hands stay flat to the plane , once they leave this flat to the plane condition #3 has been initiated ... sequenced release. 2 then 3. Learn to Sequence with a Random Sweep first then Delay it via the aiming point procedure to attempt snap. The longer the in line longitudinal acceleration , arrow from quiver, rope pulling, the later the release of #2 radially. A little Float loading and stopping at top really helps with this. Or per Homers analogy the longer the straight line hand path the smaller the pulley wheel.
But you have to get the right elbow in front to really get there . If the right elbow can't get past a stuck right hip the right arm will straighten to allow the hands free passage to the ball... that and your shoulders will roundhouse on higher plane angle.... another compensation for the stuck right hip.
Please compare this release to the horizontal hinge drill motion with the left arm, hand (2-G, par. 4). Is it the same or are compromises required? How about the same question for the right hand-wedge?
HB
Paragraph four says this ..."the point to be learned here is that the club because of the flat left wrist must always travel at the same rpm as the arms and reproduce the selected hinge action and lag loading procedure regardless of clubhead extension velocity
What about the right arm wedge is the left wrist perpendicular to the bend of the right wrist yes

I Ref. to paragraph #4;
"For a practice drill, educate the Left Hand.............
...know their differences."
There is where my question is rooted.
As far as the passage u speak of IMO I don't think u can really compare the drills apparently the book im using currently differs slightly from the book you are using which is definitely possible, different editions were edited... well differently lol.
Linear Mode
