Drawings and Video
So, through repeated viewings, can we notice anything else? There’s always the chance that the repetition will ensure that we notice less.
In forward action, however, the right heel pivots before the left heel does. Some people might say that this is a change of gears.
The shoulders bump out toward target a lot more than the hips simultaneously bump back toward rear fence, with hips spiraling up at same time to lend starch to the plot.
Now, finally, the Ed Vebell drawings (but give me a while to get them up):
[IMG]Budge Photos_0002.jpg[/IMG] Yikes, I've got to see the little paper clip. Before I see that, I can do nothing, and it's not coming up right now. (Just go to the next post, reader, and notice at first how wonderful these drawings are. Arriving at this verdict will put you in an unusually good mood to learn something new. These likenesses of Donald Budge compel. The use of thatchwork to portray shadow in drawings # 2 and 3 of the 8 gives a good sense of hips turn. The authors of THE GAME OF SINGLES IN TENNIS, William F. Talbert and Bruce S. Old, knew that drawings can present emphasis even better than the photographic frames from which they are taken.)
That’s why the professional field of scientific/medical illustration exists.
Also, Talbert and Old, tennis players themselves, may have been exerting their belief in competition—or was it an editor who was responsible for there being different illustrators in the same book: Old Vebell then author’s wife Katharine D. Old with a second “a” in her first name like Hepburn, third Stephen P. Baldwin, who made countless diagrams of points.
It’s all good stuff, but, we’re spoiled by the one great video we have:
And we wonder if Donald Budge ever did use his hips to screw down his front foot into its original flatness. Or was that mere “educational emphasis,” i.e., projection of the verbal instruction that left foot “pivots only slightly throughout.”
Certainly, if we like this serve enough to imitate it, we can try both methods: screwing the front foot down or leaving the heel up as in the video.
