How is RFP restrictive??? I'm getting a bigger turn than ever...I can really crank it and feel that my right shoulder and all down the right side of my back can "turn no more." I've had great results using it.
I use right forearm takeaway per 12-3-0-17 in addition to extensor action takeaway per 10-19-0 with snap loading....I tell ya....when ever I read the phrase "Right Forearm Pickup" I get the heebie geebies....
There is plenty to gain from learning to swing andhit.
There is also plenty to gain by learning Right Forearm Pickup.
Like Don Villavaso always says: "You need to play AND practice."
In this case--BOTH ways---hitting and swinging.
Some golfers find Right Forearm Pickup too restrictive. Making a good SPINE CENTERED pivot can work wonders for some players. Try IT on the range and on the course.
Bottom line: Use whatever produces the BEST results on the course!
An alternative to right forearm takeaway is.....standard hip action.....which gives you an "Angled Delivery Path" instead of a straight line path....
I'll compromise.....it works for me with full sweep loading but not with an extensor action takeway....it's so easy to forget about the "back" dimension of the three dimenisonal takeaway per the last paragraph of page 26.
