jack,the concept of tht has repeatedly come under attack and it's your own fault for not clearly articulating what it is and what it is not...

GRC,

I don't understand why you are attacking me.

Yes I do understand THT, you are the one asking Jack to defend or clarify what it means. Jack has explained it many times. It's up to you to determine if it's true or not true. I can see the principles of THT just fine and what Jack is explaing happens in a good swing. I will not say I agree with him 100%, but I see his logic in explaining it the way he does.
