Let's all look closer at the photo posted with Neal Lancaster Notice the seperate LCG and clubshaft planes The LCG is holding or tracing the plane line on the ground .... notice the shaft change it's relationship to the LCG which is holding itself to the plane line... all of a sudden you no longer see the LCG in the last frame because the "the Clubshaft can travel on, or to- and from, either Plane because Clubshaft rotation must be around the Sweetspot - not vice versa.In this case, shaft has traveled "on, and to ,the plane of the LCG" The LCG is now hidden by the shaft! Identify Neal Lancaster's 10-18... 10-18-A or 10-18-C-1??? Now I suggest that this relationship is different based upon the ineraction of three seperate but intertwined areas. 1) Hinge Action 2) Wrist Action 3) Lag Loading I would agree that Both Hitters and Swingers would use the LCG in a similar but very different way(it is what is on -plane the sameness, but dragged or driven is the difference)However, Wrist Action and Loading is what changes the shaft location to the LCG...I also believe hinge action has a relationship as well....Shaft rotation around the LCG is opposite for Vertical Hinging than Horizontal Hinging... I am NOT a self-proclaimed expert on this subject...BUT I DO NOT believe hitters and swingers use this relationship the same way.... As a matter of fact ...I think it is a huge difference...A primary difference... BUT I could be wrong...so correct me if I am!!! 6b...stay on the scent ...remember you are "hound" ....keep that nose to the ground...!!!! Stay with us..A return phone call Patrick...is being requested...Thanks Last edited by annikan skywalker : 11-07-2005 at 12:45 PM. annikan skywalker View Public Profile Send a private message to annikan skywalker Find all posts by annikan skywalker
