In golf, this move is exemplified by the "delayed" hit. It is when the stroke is left to the automatic delayed hit of the ball. The club is just pulled towards the ball and just "guided" through by the big muscles. The applies even to putting.
The Essence of SOG
What is really behind the Stroke of Genius (SOG)? What really makes it work? Is it muscle memory alone?
Yes it is muscle memory but there is something more than that to make it work. It is the fact that it is a PULLING FORCE, ALWAYS. SOG is the key to use the power of the ground, the power to project the gravity to anything, even the small golf ball! AND THE PULL POWER COMES FROM THE GROUND. Without the ground as a leverage, a pull cannot be executed at all.
So What is the Bottom Line
Now we know that SOG is essentially the pulling force or motion, then what is important in a golf swing is achieving a connection between the ground and the swing. And that means in the golf swing that it is essential to load up the swing, not the cocking or the shoulders, per se, but the point when the swing is connected to the ground. Of course, the left arm, the cocking and the shoulder motions facilitated the connection but those are not the purpose of the swing. They are just facilitators. As long as that connection is made, that is what it takes and required. Nothing more, nothing less.
2020-06-15: STROKE OF GENIUS (SOG) APPLICATION IN THE GOLF SWING - The full cocking is the most important part of the upswing. It doesn't matter if the shoulders does not fully go up as long as the cocking is fully done. And it (COCKED wrist) is NOT subjectively released to take the divot. Yes, the delayed centrifugal release is caused by the SOG. The club/head is automatically released by centrifugal force which gives the extra power to the swing.
From my practice today I found that using Hogan's tied up feeling, with only the wrist cocking the club upwards to the fullest and intentionally letting the claspped hands bring down the butt of the club towards the ball... is the optimum move, even the right hand can be used as Hogan described in his book.
2020-06-16: YES!!!
2020-06-25: YES, FULL COCKING IS REQUIRED BUT SMOOTH TAKEAWAY UPWARDS TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER WORKS FOR ALL SHOTS INCLUDING THE 8 IRON!
2020-06-26: FORGET THE ABOVE. IT DOES NOT WORK IN THE COURSE. TRY THE ONE FOLLOWING NEXT TIME.
Use natural motions using all left arm and hand for swinging the club. Waggle with the left wrist. This motion should find the plane naturally. With the wrist, flip the club up along the plane with full cocking in mind. With plane fully apparent mentally, pull the club, butt first, along the plane towards the ball and let centrifugal force bring you to a picture perfect finish (DUKOT).
