Explain The Ko Brothers

What does he do with his elbow before tip-ball contact? What does he do with his elbow after the ball is gone?

What do you do with your elbow and when relative to tip-ball contact?

The point isn't "when" he drops his elbow.. It's that he drops his elbow.

There are those that advocate (and teach) a pendulum stroke because it supposedly can do anything an elbow drop can, but does not have all the downsides of potential pre-contact elbow drop, but I don't see many world champions using it.

There was one top US player who seemed not to drop his elbow at all, but he gave that up the last time I checked.

Does anyone have an example of a top player who does not drop his elbow on power shots? (Lots of players keep a still elbow for soft shots.)

The talent code

Read the book "The Talent Code" and you will understand. Great read and insight into world champions and how they get there.

This is to Zen...Dont want your elbow to drop tie a string from your neck to right above the elbow.
