[Delaware Golf]

After watching the Australian video thousands of times back in Feb and hearing TT constantly yell "hit out at the ball" I began to see many things that are similar to what I perceive to be a maximum participation stroke. With that in mind, I emailed Ben Doyle and he concured that one could achieve a MPS using the teachings of TT. I cannot find the short yet to the point reply that Mr. Doyle sent me, but he mentioned that once you get into pitch position that you are able to "hit." (I believe he used the term forearm slap.)

Hit out at the ball.

OT: I have found that it is much easier and productive for me to focus on the right hand instead of whipping and zipping my right forearm. Putting my mind in my right hand has made this technique come full circle. Another thing that has really helped is cocking the elbow with my bicep and attempting to align my right hand as close to my right shoulder as possible. My swing has become very compact, whippy and powerful. I blast my long irons as far as the avg. LPGA pro hits their driver (245.9).

Oddly enough my swing looks like a power golf pre-accident era Ben Hogan, but on the frame of a big black man.

Tomasello's term whip it and zip it. The Magic of the Right forearm uncocking the right elbow whips it and the left hip responding to the right forearm zips it. The whip it concept comes from Whipcracking with a bull whip or the action a fly fisherman uses to cast a fishing rod.

As Tommy said...."Ya got to learn to whip it before you can zip it".....10/1993.
