Lag Loading And the #2 Pressure Point

Remember, the Swinger's action is all about Drag Loading the Left Wrist -- the #2 Power Accumulator -- in the Start Down. That Lag Pressure Loading is sensed through the associated #2 Pressure Point -- the last three fingers of the Left Hand. It is no coincidence that the #2 Pressure Point is the first listed (Item #14) in Stage One of the Basic Motion Curriculum of 12-5-1.

Despite his huge Pivot Motion, Sam Snead was never one to stress the Body in his Stroke. In fact, he was once quoted as saying "I haven't thought about my legs for five minutes in my whole life." He was, however, acutely aware of his Hands, and he always said, "I start my downswing by pulling down with the last two fingers of my left hand."

But what did he know?
