Don't believe it matters if your swinging or hitting... For Swingers, the recommended application is 4,2,3 in sequential order. Accumulator #1, the Muscle Power of the driving right forearm, is typicaly passive in the Swingers stroke. Hitters might typicaly use 1,2,3 simultaneously but do not generaly use the gyroscopic Body power of the #4. I guess this might be a good opportunity to begin our discussion of whether it is possible or advisable to have a True 4 Barrel sroke The Four Barrel Stroke is for Hitters only. Three Barrel is the maximum for Swingers. The sequence always begins with #4 -- nothing can happen until the Left Arm moves. Then #1, #2, #3 for Hitters. Swingers omit #1 because Centrifugal Force drives the Club, not Muscular Thrust. So, their remaining sequence is #2, #3. Though both Hitters and Swingers use the Right Shoulder -- the Driver of the #4 Accumulator -- they use it differently. Swingers use it to 'crank the Gyroscope' and blast the essentially inert Left Arm off the chest. After taking up the initial Clubhead inertia -- the 'slack' -- Hitters use the Right Shoulder as a Launching Pad from which to Drive the Bent Right Arm toward Impact. __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage!
