yea i noticed his waggle too reminds me of what homer says about tour players that are off-plane, its like they need to throw the club off plane to get the sensation they are resisting it, sort of the same idea with his exaggerated waggle. Dufs got the sweetest beergut going on

I like the waggle.
Got me back in touch with my right forearm flying wedge.
I start out with straight line condition with the shaft and right arm and as I bend my right wrist I automatically bend my right elbow.
The bend in the right wrist and bend in the right elbow neutralizes each other and allows me to keep the shaft in a perpendicular to the target.
The waggle helps me find "feel" that angle
It took me a year but I finally figure out the "magic" of the right forearm.

I believe its important to waggle in a way thats in preparation for what you are about to undertake. To light up the pressure points you are about to employ.

That said, what do you guys say to the thought that Hogan, a Drag Loader who Loaded the knuckle at the base of his right hand index finger, conversely waggled a Loading of the "First Joint in the right hand Index Finger"? Was it perhaps in preparation for Radial Acceleration through the ball? That'd make sense. But then it wasnt the " direction of loading" he used during Takeaway or in Transition. Or did he actually load the Knuckle somewhat the Rotated Pressure Point?

I dunno, but I do know that Homer didnt like his waggle on the grounds that it was a rehearsed Quiting at the ball. Homer preferred a waggle overtop of the ball that made its way to Both Arms Straight. Sorta like Davis Love's waggle.

Does anybody have video of Johnny Revolta's waggle? Supposedly it was the inspiration for the Hogan waggle.

Have you seen Fowler's "waggle". Not exactly a waggle, perhaps. Very often he does a series of short swings continous back and forth before he assumes his stance. It looks like he is programming the shot and reinforcing the rhythm required to pull it off. Makes a lot of sense to me.

Me too and I think Vardon, Melhourne and Bob McDonald would also agree.

Gotta check that out, thanks man.
