Yoda Explains The Secret of Golf

[whip]

i think it was a very good point to make about the fact that although yes the shaft may be bending forward at the point of impact the idea is always to sustain the lag, this can be a tough concept to understand when watching the shaft on video, I have discussed this with my AI several times about the pre-stressed Club shaft and the phenomena of the shaf bending forward seemed to contradict, it is not so much phenomena I suppose and can be explained by physics and geometry as much as anything else

Handle draggers? I saw something in golf digest Jim McLean stuff about throwers and draggers thought it was funny how it categorized which players were throwers and which were draggers they had all completely different swings and I saw nothing that correlated them.

When I got into the golfing machine I knew it was something that was not accepted by mainstream golf and in fact the person who introduced me to it deemed it as too complex, this is what attracted me to it. It should come as no surprise to me the reaction to tgm from other golf forums, still it is somewhat frustrating for others to blatantly bash your teaching system and pigeon hole it

I have come along way from my posts on golfwrx about my own theories and seemsasifs about the golf swing w kevcarter and oldskooltexan before I came across tgm it was during that time that I discovered the book and haven't looked back since, while they keep searching I'll stick with the yellow book

Whip,

Who were you on golfWRX?

I thought I was whip, I had a long post about my progress with a morad teacher, probably don't remember

Sorry Whip. My memory is worse than I thought.

Fun to see a couple of posts by our old friend @GolfLagTips. Really good man whose website was instrumental in getting me involved with TGM and LBG. I will never forget how much fun I had at his site, it made me so excited to learn! Thanks @GolfLagTips, hope you are doing great!

Those who think they are teaching YODA something about how the shaft really works need to read this post. One of the originals from years ago:

YODA has understood this phenomena for years. The secret is not the direction the shaft bends, but the relationship of the pivot leading the hands, and the hands leading the club head and the pressure applied through impact. That's right, I said it, Sustain The Line of Compression!
