See this Jeffy-forum thread - jeffygolf.com/showthread.php?788-4dswing-data-of-Alex-Noren-and-the-quot-scientists-quot
Jeffy and Tapio claim that AN's pelvis is accelerating into impact. Then Tapio claims that "At least 90% of players I have measured got hip deceleration before impact. I think there is not too many who can have their peak at impact, but Alex is one of them. I haven't seen any other good player able to do that, but Alex is using his legs very strongly and pushes left hip away from the target strongly when coming to impact. His legs are working to opposite directions as majority of tour players turns around the steady left leg. I think that's the main difference."
Where is the "evidence" that AN is i) accelerating his pelvis into impact or ii) performing his pelvic motion differently to many other PGA tour golfers - what Tapio calls "pushes the left hip way from the target strongly when coming impact"?
Jeffy then wrote-: "Tapio's explanation of Noren's pattern is more or less identical to Kel's concept of the "second fire" and "push-pull coupling" of the hips in elite golf swings Tapio also indicated that it was rare. In other words, if you hadn't studied a lot of elite swings, you might never see a pattern like Alex's. We know from Prof. Duffey that Kwon and the rest of the biomechanists are not expert in elite swings.".
Where is the "evidence" that what AN is doing is rare? What biomechanical phenomenon is AN supposedly performing that is rare?
Jeffy also wrote-: "In any case, the qualitative evidence is pretty strong that the "push-pull" leg movement used by Alex Noren is a significant source of power for elite long-hitters, like Jamie Sadlowski, Geoff Olohan, Bubba Watson, younger Tiger, young Jack Nicklaus, the list goes on and on".
I would like to see Jeffy explain how one can get more swing power from a "second fire" pelvic motion and a "push-pull" leg movement.
