2-0 Basic Imperative Number 2 A Clubhead Lag Pressure Point

Thanks
Thank you, DDL!
The Clubhead Lag is always assigned its own Pressure Point -- usually
Pressure Point #3 -- and this becomes the Indirect Drive of the Club
through Impact. The remaining employed Pressure Points normally
constitute the Direct Drive (7-11). Since
the Swinger uses Pressure Point #3 as the Clubhead
Lag Indirect Drive, the remaining
two employed Pressure Points -- Pressure Points #2 and #4 -- become the Direct Drive.
good answers to good questions. I still love when Yoda says the PP#3 is the
CLUBHEAD. PP#3 is a wrecking ball with a shaft and clubhead attached to it.
Gee, you mean your HANDS ARE THE ROCK
The 'point of force' you are pulling or pushing
think I've heard that one before.... those great minds again
Different perspective Lynn. No disagreement that the 'mass at the end of the stick'
is what is thrown, although I like 'sling' rather than 'throw'. Felt in the
hands (and I would add, feet).
To the extent that you monitor the hands, and not the clubhead/face, I
consider the hands the rock. To the extent that the hands follow a more
'true' path than the club (a more 'on plane' string from the hands to the
swing center), I would consider the hands the rock.
It could be said that the pressure points represent the rock as well, yes.
The difference between throwing the rock, and a rock on a string.
I didn't say that "the mass at the end of the stick" (the Clubhead)
was the Rock. I said that the Clubhead Lag (Pressure) was the Rock.
And the Clubhead Lag is all about Monitoring the Hands and not the Club. As
you've implied, that Clubhead Lag Rock is assigned to a specific Pressure
Point in the Hands, typically the Right Forefinger.
I understand your concept, Ed, and that is why I responded to your comment
(to 6bee1dee's post loosely quoting me) "Gee, you mean that the Hands
are the rock." Simply said, that was not what was meant.
or the 'rock is the
