Done bro…stop trying to milk secrets. Or read Hogan’s books and figure it out in the dirt. Go study all the FREE stuff that’s on this site, which describes everything I said above. Even goes into TGM stuff, so your P’s don’t get all mixed up. The search function is amazing.
Hell, just watch Hogan long enough and you’re bound to see it. It’s freaking obvious…
The hands aren’t together forming a couple at a great distance from the CoM of the club. The stick is touching and being compressed down and into the ice. The trail hand is exerting linear force down and forward to drive the hockey stick into and along the ice, and I’d assume the other hand is pulling back some. This is absolutely nothing like what happens in a golf swing.
Yes you are. Don’t even understand how the club would react differently if force was applied at the CoM vs the grip. Or if it was drug along the ground and force was across the shaft.
Nothing quite says golf science like disregarding actual golf research, data, 3D, shaft strain gauges, and equipment engineers and manufacturers in favor of looking at video of hockey slap shots
That’s not shaft flex . That’s just having shaft lead and keeping the hands ahead. That is not in any way, shape, or form what this conversation is about. As a matter of fact, John Erickson DOES NOT want you dragging the clubhead through or artificially having the hands ahead or excess shaft lean. That has nothing to do with shaft deflection.
