Didn't he play center on the Stanford basketball team?

    Ok - then take 1 inch from the measurements I posted . Take off ever how many you want . That doesn’t change my point .

Well it does, your clear lack of factual knowledge just means you are making shit up. So again I ask, can I have what you are smoking? Man, the shit you make up is crazy.

For someone claiming to know they are talking about, you’re making some blatantly false statements.

At this point you’re making yourself look less knowledgeable with each post

You said something about hands/body/brain connection. Sure, whatever. Applies to all things we do. 

I honestly don't wan to dismiss what you are saying assuming you are may be simply having difficulty expressing it step by step. 

What is your point in relation to a golf swing? How does the TW illustration prove it, and ultimately what are you trying to 'teach' us? What would you like someone DO to hit a golf ball with proper club-path and square club face? 

Can you layout what happens or what should one do at each position from A1 to A8

Actually , the explanation i used is exactly how the human brain sees itself.

The brain doesn't "see itself," and you aren't even really keeping things straight. Nobody has talked about how the brain "sees itself," and you've talked about (and thus far seemingly made up things) about how the brain can't process what the right elbow does (or whatever).

I taught several lessons today. Two of them were about the right elbow. The people had no problems thinking about elevating the right elbow, or doing what I asked them to do with the right elbow.

People can think about their left pinkie toe during the golf swing if they want.

I know what a cortical homunculus is.

A number of claims you have made today alone that you have yet to back up

  • It is the turning of the torso ( inner circle ) that squares the face, not the hands!

Yeah, that's a good one. A ton of golfers will palmar flex or do some other things to help them square the face, and many other golfers who rotate through the ball will leave the face wide open or over-close it.

  • Knowledge of human genetics is the major key to a successful golf swing

Yeah, that's a funny one. Dustin Johnson, master of human genetics knowledge!

  • Every great player drops their hands down back behind their torso at the very start of their DS before the rotation of their shoulders begins

I'm still trying to figure out what in the hell direction "behind" is.

That being said, why would you expect Erik, or anyone else on this site to debate you when you don't even acknowledge our questions and refuse to back up your claims? Suddenly if the format was a formalized debate setting instead of an online forum you would be ready to back up your claims with facts? I highly doubt that.

Could we agree that his hands at the very top / end of his BS are approx. 6 ft. 6 inches to 7 feet ( close enough for me point ) vertical from the ground?

What does this have to do with anything else about which you've prattled thus far?

Question - was TW ‘s intent to release , hit or throw with his hands ? Since the normal reaction time for a human is 1/10 second - could that be possible for any human ? If not, what squared his clubface????

You don't think he can cup or palmar flex his left wrist from A4-A6?

No sir, I don’t! If you closely observe his HANDS you will notice that the palm of his right hand is facing directly away from his torso and obviously the back of his left hand is facing in the same direction . This indicates that he was PULLING his lever down with the strongest parts of his hands - that part that Karate experts use to break brick - the butts ! His intent could not have been to square the face with his hands . That would be impossible for a human .    If TW ‘s intent was to square the face with his hands it would have been necessary for him to perform that way before this position. Any effort to apply power during the DS with the hands is disastrous. The HANDS control the action , but they must not be allowed to hit , throw or release. That requires timing and everyone knows what that brings.
      His has trained his hands ( particularly his dominant right) to perform in a  manner that is totally opposite to the human genetics design . And he did I better than anybody else .

I welcome debate from anyone who would like to question my info, but I am not interested in any childish personal attacks towards me . I ignore those !

Let's be clear about something, @Lane Holt. This is the question I asked. I did not ask if he DID do either of those things, I asked if he could in those 0.2 seconds.

Because many players do those things in that time.

Dustin Johnson goes from extremely palmar flexed to fairly neutral (flat) around impact.

Matt Wolff goes from extended to flexed from A4 to A6.

Matt_Wolff_A4_A6.jpg

He does so largely so he can "square the face." George Gankas has talked about it, he's talked about it. It's his intent, and he does it.

Add "impossible" to the list of words to which you don't seem to understand the definition.

Oh brother.

You don't welcome debate, man. You can't even quote the person to whom you're replying. People have asked you for evidence, proof, pointed out that you don't use words properly… and you just ignore them and move on. That's not a debate - that's intellectual dishonesty.

The rules for you going forward:

  • If you're going to respond to someone, quote them. If you're only replying to a bit of what they're saying, quote that part only, so long as it's not leaving out the context, or quote the whole thing but bold only the part you're replying to.
  • You'll make an effort to actually engage with and discuss the posts others are making. If they take the time to say something to you, to attempt to engage in an actual debate with you, you will honor their time by responding. Debates are not just you lecturing and ignoring all questions, all feedback. There's got to be a bit of reciprocity.

Fail to do those two simple things and your time here will be short, because this isn't a platform for lectures without engagement, without discussion, without debate. To allow that is to waste everyone's time.

Iacas,

    I thought I answered that adequately in the first words of my previous post ! I base my answer on what I perceive are facts and logic and I don’t care whether others believe it or not . I understand that it would be impossible since it takes 1/10 seconds for messages to travel between the human brain and it’s dominant hands and in that very short period of time it would not be possible to alter or change . No human could possibly know where their hands are in 2/10 seconds of the DS and suddenly decide it is time to square the face with their hands . Human just don’t work that way . 
   If others think a human could then fine with me . No one has to believe me . I am used to that ! Theory and opinion is  much more intriguing.

A belief is not a fact. Facts are not perceived by one person and not perceived by another. Facts are universal. What comes out of ones mouth is not always a fact, and most likely an opinion.

@Lane Holt, once again:

WHAT did you answer? You said something was impossible, then I showed you that it's not, and now we're back to "No, I don't"?

Last chance to follow the two simple rules I laid out above.

We've yet to see many of either facts or logic from you.

I don't "believe" that 2+2=4. Facts aren't something that you can "believe" in. They're truths. They just "are."

I understand that it would be impossible since it takes 1/10 seconds for messages to travel between the human brain and it’s dominant hands and in that very short period of time it would not be possible to alter or change.

I'm not talking about from A6 to A7 (which takes place in FAR less time than 1/10th of a second). I'm talking about the entire downswing. And an action that began before A6 can continue through A6 to A7, and A8 even.

Ah, classic.

You've either goalpost shifted here, or you've made a very, very unclear argument to this point.

Nobody is talking about "squaring the face" from only A6 onward except you. Nobody is saying any golfer "reacts" to what he feels at A6 and makes a change before impact.

I've said many times on this forum nobody can change anything after ~A5, after all.

But that's not what's been discussed, particularly since the topic is "transition". Transition ain't A6 to A7.

    • Wordle 1,013 4/6* ⬛🟦🟦⬛⬛ ⬛🟦⬛🟦🟦 🟧⬛🟧🟧🟧 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧 par is good after a double bogey yesterday.
    • I did read the fine print tonight. It said replace with “similar features & function”.  8 yeas ago my purchase had features that today are available on the lower end models and the current version of my model has more “bells & whistles” than what I got 8 years ago.  So I am thinking they honored the agreement and I can’t argue the offer. since getting a credit for the full purchase price all I am really out over the past 8 years was the cost of the extended warranty, which was less than a low end  treadmill would have cost me. now the question is which model to replace with.  I’ll stay with Nordic Track or I forfeit the $1,463 credit so I will get Nordic Track.  And they honored the warranty and were not hard to work with which is a plus.
    • Generally speaking, extended warranties are a terrible deal and should almost always be avoided. They are a huge profit center for the companies that offer them, which should tell you almost everything you need to know about how much value most consumers get when purchasing them.  This is correct, and the old adage applies - only buy insurance when you can't afford the loss. This usually doesn't apply to most consumer goods.  To your second question, no I don't believe the offer is fair. They are replacing it, but it is not being replaced at "no cost to you". Since the amount being disputed (over $500) is non-trivial, I would probably push the issue. Don't waste your time on the phone with a customer service agent or a supervisor. They have probably given you all they have the authority to do. Rather, I would look at the terms of your agreement and specifically legal disputes. The odds are you probably agreed to binding arbitration in the event of a dispute. The agreement will outline what steps need to be followed, but it will probably look something like this.  1. Mail the Nordic Track legal department outlining your dispute and indicate you are not satisfied with the resolution offered.  2. Open up a case with the AAA (American Arbitration Association), along with the required documentation. 3. Wait about 4-5 weeks for a case to be opened - at which point someone from Nordic Track's legal department will offer to give you the new model at no cost to you.  They certainly don't want to spend the time and energy to fight you over $500. 4. Enjoy your new Nordic Track at no cost to you. I recently entered binding arbitration against a fairly large and well known company that screwed me over and refused to make it right. In my demand letter, I made a pretty sizeable request that included compensation for my time and frustration. Once it hit their legal department, they cut me a check - no questions asked. It was far cheaper to settle with me than to send their legal team to defend them in the arbitration.
    • I never thought of looking at it on multiple purchases like you said.  Yes, the extended may help me on 1 or 2 items but not the other 5 or 6.
    • Day 84 - Forgot to post yesterday, but I did some more chipping/pitching.    Back/neck were feeling better today, so I did a much overdue Stack session.
