Mary had a horizontal hinge action
I think clearkeys is great for someone that does not know how to direct his mind. I am not sure how Baa-baa black sheep is going to help me execute a specific hinge action. Yes...I have read the Double Connexion. I am not suggesting it cannot work, but rather that a nursery rhyme is indeed better than stinking thinking, but that (In my case) thinking the mechanic and feeling its associative feel is better. Example: my putting has shown a marked improvement since I purposely think about executing a pre-selected hinge action. In fact in practice I often just look at my hands to see that my hands are doing what my brain told them to do. I have even started using all three hinge actions! I have found horizontal hinging helpful on long @$$ putts, and vertical hinging on downhill ticklers. I live with angled but visit the other two from time to time. Plus I have more fun. You cannot deem reliable any feedback if you do not know what you purposed to do. I get that everything is pre-programmed and that the clearkey is there to allow the mechanically precise feel to execute the motion. Still, perhaps because of limited mental capacity I find verbal cues (based in the real world) comforting!

Of course I am happy to know that people benefit from the application of Dr. M's great work.

And of course my indifference to it may explain my unrealized golfing potential that lingers like a spectre!
