Surely, in Golfing machine, we got to train our hand and educate them. But in order to carry out a golf swing, I would say that 80% of the work is down by the fingers and wrist and not the pivot. (Where pivot motion is very much passive)
I do understand the concept of Swinger and Hitter, but when I am carrying out my stroke, I find that I am not belonging to neither of the category NOT S nor H.
My believe of my swing pattern are as follow
The first half (First 90degree of the club head travel)
When I am performing my swing, I look at it as a relay, where I am using Left forearm takeaway, and I set my right wrist position at impact fix (Forward press) and a conscious right wrist bend motion to the top (is very much Making use of the CF lag as well as it is a conscious motion too. )I feel the pivot is more on my wrist rather then the body (but obviously I can feel the pressure during the swing), for example if you are wiring a rock to a piece of string, and swing it with your wrist, the centre of the pivot is the wrist. In golf I presume in order to generate more speed, we would have to make use of the leverage on the wrist and not the pivot of the body
concious action- bend right wrist
concious action- drag load
Passive action - right elbow bend
The second half (the 2xx degree downswing to finish)
On the down swing, left wrist cock, I feel like using #2PP to drag the club down and out, as well as I am using my right elbow to thrust it out on impact. I make sure I can feel my right foot and fingers+club+pressure through out the swing. On impact apart from the right elbow thrust, I am feeling both #1pp and #3pp too. And for the left forearm roll after impact, I think it is pretty much a passive action. I think it is more like depending on the shot that I am playing and the club that I am using.
Conscious motion - flat right foot
Conscious motion - right shoulder staying intact if I am hitting a draw and straight shot. Shoulder is going with the momentum generate by the weight and the swinging of the wrist.
Conscious motion - hitting down and out, particularly I feel that if I am hitting my wedge as you can see the result on the divot.
Through out the first half and the second half, I just dont think about my pivot at all. Finger and wrist controlled the whole body motion, for example the bend right elbow on the downswing before delivery the package, a lot magazine was saying that, it is conscious motion, and I think the bend right elbow is pretty much a result of having bending the right wrist, and the motion should be passive.
Could we call that Education hands, I just do not understand As supposingly, if I am a Swinger, I am using totally the CF and the only part about my educated hand would be when I am aiming the hand at impact. If I am a hitter, I should only think of the right arm thrusting (Drive Load) as well as having my club face staying square at the top.
Can I say that I am a Swinger Synchronized Hitter? Where I have an open club face at the top, I drag load, I have quite a big swing arc. BUT, I thrust my right elbow at impact, rather then using the CF to do it.
Thanks
