Endless Belt Effect (2-K)

Apr 11 2009

Endless_Belt_Effect.jpg

Endless Belt Effect- The change of the clubhead from Linear Motion to Angular Motion. The clubhead and belt (hands) travel at exactly the same speed; however there are two (2) different surface speeds between the pulley and the clubhead.

The belt (hands) speed never changes but the clubhead speed increases as it goes around the pulley. The hands act as the belt they must not speed up, slow down, or become jerky. The hands do not change speed during the release.

The smaller the pulley the slower you can swing. The later the delay the slower the hand speed. The faster you swing the harder it is to keep the club from flying out.

Subjects are located according to their chapter, sub-chapter, section and sub-sectioni nstead of by page numbers because this will most often cover and or pipoint the item better.

For example; Body Power 2-M-3, 6-B-4. Float Loading 10-19-B, 11-19-B. Knee Action 7-16, 9-1, 10-16, 11-16.

Putting - Right Arm Stroke Only

Apr 02 2009
Putting
Putting_Arms_Address0jpg.jpg

If there are 18 holes on a golf course and each green is worth two putts that means that par for putting is 36. The majority of 18-hole golf courses are par 72. That means that half of par is putting. That is an interesting way to look at it.

Remember the old saying “Drive for show and Putt for Dough. Now that saying actually changed and it is now Drive for Dough and Putt for Dough.

So for example on an 18 hole Par 72 we may use our driver from the tee 14 times, two putts on each hole , totaling 36 putts, that means the total Drives and Putts are fifty stroke. This leaves a total of twenty-two strokes for all other clubs, again this is a very interesting statement.

Homer Kelley states in Chapter 12 (Page 221) in the 7 Th Edition of The Golfing Machine - Keep ALL Full and Short Stroke alignments and paths identical. Chips and Putts are merely Miniaturized - not altered.

Homer Kelley stressed two main things with Putting: To find out what they were read on.

Bump and Run - 3 wood, Hybrid, Rescue

Well, one of the most useful short game shots is the #3 wood or Hybrid Chip/Putt shot.

What club do you use when the ball is only a couple of steps off the green and there is about 60 feet to the hole?

I would have always taken my putter or chip with say a 7 iron (Depending on how far i was off the green and how much green I had to the hole) until I saw players using a 3-wood and having a lot of success. Such a player is Tiger Woods who we have seen taking out his 3 wood and playing a chipping motion from off the edge of the green.

When a ball is lying just off the edge of the green, a player can use a 3 or 5 wood or a Hybrid, Rescue club to perform a bump-and-run style Chip/Putt.

By assuming the players typical putting stance and grip, a ball can be bumped onto the green with a low trajectory where it will then run out like a Putting stroke.

But first, you need to know when and where you hit the 3 wood chip shot.

Clubhead Line of Flight (2-N-0)

The following article is taken from an audio conversation with Homer Kelley at an Authorized Instructors Course in The Golfing Machine in 1982. It was conducted by Homer Kelley at his private residence.

As you read through this article please remember that as questions were being asked to Homer he was both reponding and demonstrating to the class at the same time. You may therefore find at times a little difficult to following just what may have been happening at the time while Homer was demonstrating his point of view.

Alas we are very fortunate indeed to have this written account taken from an audio tape as we can and will learn so much about the True Plane Line, Angle of Attack, Angle of Approach, Arc of Approach, and so much more.

The Angle of Attack is the arbitrary straight line drawn Down Plane between Impact Point and Low Point. The Arc of Attack is the actual curved path the Clubhead Covers as it orbits Down Plane through the same two points, for example, the curved Clubhead blur through Impact. The Angle of Approach and the Arc of Approach are those same two lines as seen by the player on the ground from his Above Plane view. These are illusions because they are actually inscribed on the face of the Plane

Clubhead Line of Flight (2-N-0)

Clubhead_Line_of_Flight.jpg

The Line of Flight of the Clubhead and the Line of Flight of the Ball are not the same but touch momentarily during Impact. One has a Vertical Plane of action and the other has a Inclined Plane.

The relationships in the golf stroke can be explained only by Geometry, because Geometry is the science of relationships. Every thing in a circle is a straight line (Diameter, Radius, Tangent, Chord) except its circumference

The relationships in the golf stroke can be explained only by Geometry, because Geometry is the science of relationships. So learn Feel from Mechanics rather than Mechanics from Feel, "Alignment Golf" - Feel from Mechanics - dispenses with all dependence on "mandatory Positions". Alignment Golf simply smothers Position Golf, so translate your "position Procedures" into "Alignment Procedures" as soon as possible
