That is great! Would this give validity to the concept that range of motion in a persons joints / muscles, heavily influences the "look" and performance of a persons swing? And if so, how do you go about figuring out what would be best for a student?

PS - I think "the head of the golfer" where the "outward flee" occurs is probably an indicator of the center of the swing. The outward flee has to be the club seeking the proper plane / path around the golfer. Right?

Michael - on any downswing the center of mass will "line up" with the head at some point, yes? Can you clarify please

Steve,

Indeed any and all movements are 'SUBJECT' dependent, meaning that the abilities of the individual will vary from player to player.

When the Center of Mass of the overall club {which is in space somewhere in the same vertical line as the balance point} gains speed and momentum there is a tremendous outward flee of the club.

As I have stated in the Offset Office Tip, the club head does orbit around somewhere around the neck / back of the teeth

Jc B,

Can you elaborate a little more on the question ?? I think I know what you mean but I am not sure


Here is a little office discussion that may help:
