7-19 Lag Loading for Drag Loading

7-19 LAG LOADING

This category recognizes the over-all control by the Clubhead Lag Pressure Point (6C-2) and that manipulation of its Loading Procedure determines the Physics of both Hitting and Swinging (Preface). (Study 6-H-O, 7-3 and 7-20.)

The correct Clubhead Lag Pressure "Feel" is a deadweight inertia--exactly like dragging a wet mop through Impact--constant loading, constanct direction. A careful nursing of Clubhead Feel. Clubhead Lag can be established in three different ways:

1. ..........
2. ..........
3. by "throwing" the Club against the Lag Pressure Point at The Top for Drag Loading.

Having some problems drag loading. Having even more problems discerning #3 above. At first glance, it would appear to suggest that once Top is reached I "throw" at chosen Pressure Point and the "throw" takes me to End.

Prerequisites?

Grip?
Loose wrists?
What is doing the throwing?
.....?

Rats, I gotta go, the search begins.

Short thumb ala Ben Hogan with snuff box to the right of the centerline of the grip, will make LAG, POWER, PROPER BITE, PROPER FLIGHT AND DISTANCE all possible. It's not all there is but you can lose everything with the wrong grip, Hitting or Swinging.

When Lynn changed my swing, putting, and chipping grips, he made par possible for me, no lie. I practice it daily!

Thanks, PB. I concur wholeheartedly. I have only heard Yoda and one other teacher give much attention to the "anatomical snuffbox." Probably the least fully understood concept in the grip, to me. Overlap, Vardon, baseball (10 finger) grips make no difference whatsoever if that snuffbox is not placed correctly. After that, things have the opportunity to fall in place. If not, all is for naught, in my humble opinion.
