[6-M-1 DOWNSTROKE SEQUENCE The Downstroke sequence of the Stroke Components is dictated essentially by Centrifugal Force; acceleration of a lagging Component will cease at the instant it achieves an “In-Line” position with its immediately preceding Component.
Centers and Accumulators can be sequenced, overlapped, omitted, emphasized, triggered and timed as the players understanding and skill permit. But the Club’s Swing Radius (6-B-0) ends at the “non-lagging” Component nearest to the Clubhead. The “Centers” of the Stroke start with the Feet or the employed Component nearest to the feet in the following order: Knees, Hips, Shoulders, arms, Right Elbow, Left Wristcock and/or Left Hand Rotation. For maximum Power, the position of must be taken with that will allow Delay of the Release until all Components, except the Right Foot and Right Shoulder, have reached, or passed, the Line-of Site-to-the-Ball per 6-B-1-C. Then the Accumulators must move very rapidly toward their “In-Line” Position. But none should actually arrive (lose all their Lag and Drag) until well after Impact. Also see 6-H-0.
Power Accumulator Release sequence is #4, #1, #2, #3 – regardless of which ones are being employed. Any Accumulator number may overlap or replace its preceding number but cannot precede it. Increase Overlap to increase Thrust – decrease Overlap to increase Velocity.
Power Package Thrust/Velocity Variations
3 Barrel Swinger Release Sequence: #4, #2, #3
#4 and #2 Controls Overlap: Amount of #4 Release Travel before Left Wrist Uncock
Maximum Thrust: Sweep Release
Maximum Velocity: Snap Release
Variations: Random Sweep Release
#2 and #3 Controls Overlap: Amount of Wrist-Uncock before the #3 Roll begins
Maximum Thrust: Standard Wrist Action
Maximum Velocity: Double Wrist Action
Variations: Vary Amount of Left Wrist Bend
