Not Your First Move

Not Your First Move

The current rave of ‘Shallowing Out’, which might invite getting ‘Laid Off’ is happily not ‘The First Move’!

The ‘Pull Down’ (a forced move) is not ideal as it demands ‘Tension’ when that is seldom an asset. This forcing the ‘Lever Assemblies Down’ is really unnecessary. When you get in a big hurry, a great golf swing demands more ‘Manipulation and Force’. ‘Swing Plane’ is natural!

We should work on our 'First Moves' being a ‘Gravitational or Vertical Drop’ followed by a ‘Leg Drive Down The Line’. (DTL) So, what we are really looking to accomplish is a ‘Drop Thrust’. There is quite a lot of ‘Lateral Move’ in a properly generated ‘Full Swing’. (see ‘Stage Three Procedures’ with Wrist Cock & Pivot)

Here is a small bit of advice. While you are developing more Drop in your early Front Swing (Down & Out), why not season your prowess with a slightly ‘Flatter, more ‘Under Swing Plane Take-Away’. This is primarily accomplished by our ‘Set-Up Components’.

Do you have adequate ‘Aft Tilt’ in your ‘Spinal Crankshaft’?

Are you ‘Lever Assemblies’ (Hands, Wrists Arms and the actual ‘Golf Club’) Taken-Away with enough ‘Deep, Flat & Wide’.

The ‘PUITA’ (pick up inside take-away) will leave a nasty taste in your mouth, poor Ball Flight and too many big numbers on your score card!

‘Work Smart’!
