I had the good fortune to meet De La Torre a few years back and speak to him for quite a while and his swing theory is completely pivot based as well as I think Jones. Manuel takes the same "swing the clubhead" idea that jones does in that your pivot will create a completely free swinging motion of the arms without any manipulation of the hands.
Try swinging a weight on a string the way Ernest describes it.

Totally and completely disagree about the term "Swinging Pattern."
The latest research says that if you just hold on and pull, you will only generate about 60% of your possible power.

Agree also wondering who teaches hold on and pull you need both arms and hands!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My hands and forearms are very active i tumble at the right place and right time

I know John very well; our facility sponsored him for a few years and I played with a lot. He has a heart bigger than the empire state building and HANDS to match. The freakiest, biggest hands on a body of that size you've ever seen. Cares little about technical, all feel. Biggest ball striking problem was FAT at times. An AMAZING driver of the ball. Played Mystic Rock with him one night and from the BACK of the back tees (one step off the back tee) he made the course look EASY! He really believed on decelerating on short shots. And he like to uncork a few but we won't tell the night stuff.

you should watch the Anti-Summit. Brian has taught me a pattern that has a combination of "swinging" and "hitting", if we are using those terms, since there is active release in every swing. a matter of fact, Brian taught me "dig to china" and "back extension" which I believe incorporates both a very active release with the hands and an aggressive pivot.

They list Daly as 5'11"....but that is a LIE, he is 5'8" max.

He wasn't that good.

because of wasted talent...the point is that he probably "could have been."

wow - tough crowd.
guy wins the same number of majors as norman, lyle, olazabal, langer. I wouldn't want to argue that his personal life hasn't looked like a train wreck at times - but in golfing terms you could make the case that he over-achieved.

He had some fun too. Easy to say what you would do with his talent when you don't have it. If I had won the PGA at the age he did, I would have lived at Hooters too.
So here is an interesting question. I can most certainly turn that far with my pivot... and my wrists dang near go to the same angles. Should I try using John Daly as a swing model? Totally different than my normal flat swing of just lift and turn through...
Need this weather to break so I can get some range time!
