Response to Body is First

What a photo suggest in the mind of the viewer and what is happening in the mind are two different things. If any golfer tells his or her body to swing the club by moving the leggs, hips, lower budy first, it won't work. The body (all of it) supports to the swing of the arms. The object is to swing the club. The arms have to swing, the hands hold the club, the shoulders connect the arms and trunk. They all work together. Now, from the mind stand point what starts the swing?

Take a survey of golfers who are good, average, and bad and you will find that they will say that their mind tells there arms to swing. It is subconscious to those who are accomplished, and to those who are not it is conscious off and on.

What ever the body does is to support the moving of the arms and hands to the ball and target.

If you think or anyone things that the swinging of the body will make the arms swing - well try it and see what happens. The arms will not swing unless you tell them too. They might move but not swing until you command it from command central - the mind.
