At the risk of hijacking my own thread. The “experiment “ I was working with on the days I “tweeked” my elbow was INCREASING EFFECTIVE MASS, 2-E, 2-M-1, 2-M-2, 2-M-3. ( adding #1 to an elbow that is in front and pitching) [ 4 barrel swing] . I want that wet mop feel and at the same time I do not want ANY deceleration, OF ANYTHING through impact I want acceleration of EVERYTHING THROUGH to follow through. Did you ever see Ted Williams or Mickey Mantle break the handle off their bat just by swing force not by hitting the ball? (for you hockey guys that would be BH or GH breaking their stick before they get to the puck on a slap shot) Well,I have, And, I want to break the shaft without contacting anything. I will argue, that as CF increases the radius the club try to “back up” the hands. If I just let it happen everything slows down in spite of the “heavy” (But not what it should be) feelings in the hands. I want it to have mass and maintain velocity. I like Drew’s exercise of learn to throw a club down range BUT I think there are 2 things to look for; 1. Throw in the correct direction and 2. Throw it club head first (Does the club do a helicopter down range or is it an arrow?) I think if this can be done you become “King of the world” So, why let #2 flop around and contribute nothing but motion?
I need to mention. I need to find MAX so I can adjust back to OK.
