Ah, for those who wish the book was more simple, that kind of sums it up.
Basic motion is a training pattern. It teaches "Primary Lever" Flat Left Wrist and Hinging, Stationary Head, etc. (although Hinging is always Angled)
These things must be learned someway and somehow and Basic Motion is the Tool best suited for the job. Graduate asap. Practice it often.
Impressive!!!
Yodasluke,over what period was this session-1hour? and did you advocate swing or hit?
the difference is immense and very impressive
Very nice transformation!!!

It was 45 minutes. Most are Swingers, but I have a good percentage of students that can Hit.

Darryl,
Hinging does not always have to be angled for Basic Motion.
It is up to the player to decide what hinging they would like to employ two feet back and through....which creates the desired effect on the golf balls travel.

In Alignment Golf, VJ is going through the array of hinge actions and accumulators within basic motion. Look, Look, Look...
We will forever be attending the school of basic motion.

Notice that Ted said " a shorter stroke after some work on Basic Motion". The swing on the right is really "Acquired Motion" isnt it? And a very fine example.
Not trying to be a bigger doofus than I already am but thought Id mention that for the folks just starting to work on Basic. Its a painfully small motion with the full depth of the practice field in front of you. Which is why Yoda and Luke prefer to teach it around a putting green.

But, strictly by the book, #3 is zeroed out.

Meaning the #3 Angle is zeroed by gripping it along the life line in the left hand, like we commonly do when putting. Its a little teeny tiny, stroke, like a putting stroke , 2' back and 2' through. A little chip that bumps the ball a few feet from the very edge of a green say. You can employ any hinge action in putting or in basic though the roll power associated with #3 angle is zeroed to deaden the send for such precise little shots. Its a power regulation adjustment to aid in our distance control.
Hey, is putting Basic? Never thought about that before. Oh oh, where's my book?
