Rope Handle Technique

[Sierra Magica]

I've been working and studying very hard this nearly finish year. My game going to a place where every single day is a joy. Thank to knowledge of the game and knowledge of my self with regard of the most appropriate technique.

The last piece I am working on is the Rope Handle Technique. I want to share with you my impression  of this technique.

Once I reach the top. I feel that I am pulling out a arrow (which is the shaft) from a quiver and rotating on plane and finish extending my arm along the plane line. Timing here is basic. Too slow rotation of the upper body means fat shot and too fast rotation you hit thin. Proper timing you hit beauty. 

Any thought?

I had never heard of "The Rope Handle Technique" so I googled it . .and then watched this video:

 

 

Funny - because even though I did not know what it was - this is one of the things I'm working on.  It's a weird feel and I don't really have exact words for how it feels to me . .it feels like I'm letting the shaft "flop down" on my arms at the top of the backswing . .and also that my wrists are way more flexible than they really are . .almost like I could lay the shaft right down on my right arm . .of course, I can't.  

This video is pretty close to what it seems like to me - particularly where he talks about letting the shaft "ride on your shoulder".

I saw Martin Hall on the golf channel use almost the same technique. It was Chapter 25: Long Drive Special 10/19/16.He used a beach towel with a knot.

I use to observe other golfer and specially Junior play. I realize, Kids don't have the same strength  as adults. So they need to harness the power created on the backswing. That is one of the reason why they look so gracious on the downswing and follow-through  without even Knowing or thinking about it. Fanny, Nature gives gifts. What make good golfer is keep them for the rest of your life.
