power & contol for hinge actions
 

Hi

1st post, have been learning so so much here.

I am using Angled Hinging for nearly all chips and small pitches with solid repeating results and couldn't be happier.

What or where are the forces coming from to manipulate the hinge action for Vertical and Horizontal in partial and full shots?

It feels natural to me for the right side (right handed) to be active, but I don't want to practice the wrong technique.

Thanks Terry

If you're Swinging, the Right Shoulder is active. If you're Hitting, the Right Triceps.

Welcome J!
 

May I recommend Air's thread or mine in the Clubhouse Lounge? "Airtime," or "Learning and Applying TGM w/disabilities and a 21 hcp.?" I am now a 14 hcp. Watch every video Lynn has ever made, everyday! LOL!

But seriously J!

Go to this page and start with the "Basic " videos!

The flying wedges, dragging the mop, correct grip and stationary head are all essentials to be practiced and worked upon. Practice and ask questions! There are lots of talented people around here who will check in despite the fact that this is their busiest season.

Terry, what region of the country are you in? Taking a lesson from any of these teachers may seem pricey but compared to the hours you will spend and the price of a thousands of mis-hit balls, and disappointing rounds of golf, Lynn is a bargain and a half!

A pushing motion would CREATE angled hinging while a pulling motion would CREATE horizontal hinging - To create vertical you'd need to manually manipulte that.

In regard to "where the forces come from", though G.O.L.F. is very much a right sided game , hitting or swinging, Homer after experimenting with right side Hinge Action , club face control came to the conclusion it was best left to the Left Hand. Left Hand club Face. Right hand club Head and club Shaft. Control all three (face, head and shaft) and you you control the entire golf club. Control the entire golf club and you control the ball. Control the ball and you control the game. Control the game and you control....... uh I got nothing, can't remember why I'm trying to control the game.

Excellent, thanks to everyone. I'm a pusher with partial strokes, so its activate the right tricep for power with my mind on the left hand for VH control.

I'll be getting my carpet tile and wedge out to try some onto the sofa.
