I’ve neglected this one. Sounds pretty important if it’s called the master accumulator. My arms are probably outracing my body and even if I am tracing a straight plane line, my ballstriking is inconsistent and at times very frustrating.

So should the feeling in a good golf swing be that it’s the body that is doing the swinging and not purely the arms? I know there is a transfer of energy from the body to the arms, but for me, it feels like it is the other way around. I never paid attention to PP4 probably because I never felt it.

Based on the information in previous threads, one should feel PP4 until after impact? Or just before? IIRC, in TGM, the pressure points are supposed to be behind the shaft. So should the feeling be that PP4 is pulling everything, including the hands? Not sure what is considered overdoing it or not doing enough.

Would using PP4 to lead the power package be useful in chipping and pitching?

I’m looking for something else to work on indoors in my spare time during another month or so of down time.

The longer the angle is held the better off you are. Throw it away early and all hell lets loose with the flying wedges now being rerouted off plane.

It is a small power source in itself hence #4. Master because its the glue that holds it all together.

Burners idea of swiping the crumbs off your chest is one to contemplate on for a bit. Is it a pull or a push action?

I’ll have a guess. Pushed off by the chest?

Hitter or swinger?

Err, for me a swinger, I feel it’s been pushed off the chest by the pivot. But is there a difference for Hitter and Swinger?

What cranks the gyroscope for the swinger? Remember the hands lag the pivot which pulls the pulling hands for Drag loading.

Grab an old shaft or your dowel and hold it in your left hand only and work on the #4s in left side isolation. Then then add the right hand to the shaft and see what you feel using the swingers action.

Then try Drive loading it.

Push or pull? Tough question. Feels like both. When the lag is loaded and the rotation of the torso pins the left arm against the chest, it feel like a pull. When the pressure point is released later in the downswing, it feels like the torso and right shoulder is throwing off the left arm, hence a push? Swinger here.

I am sure Lag’ will enjoy this thread. If you revisit the beginnings of Lets Talk TGM there is a lot about #4 in there.

Guru

I can definetely feel the “cranking of the gyroscope” and the pressure on the #4 as I am a swinger. But it’s total fog when it comes to hitting. I can feel my right shoulder but not the #4.

Numbers that is a very good observation for hitting. It is there but smaller than for a swinger. Top of the class.
