Pulling With the Pivot

There is no question that the Pivot plays a vital role in the Lag Loading during the Start Down. Indeed, the Pivot accomplishes that Loading with no independent motion of the Arms and Hands (6-K-0). It is this sequencing that induces the Pull sensation of Drag Loading. Per 10-19-C (capitalization by Homer Kelley):

"Drag Loading is...an out-and-out PULL, striving to accelerate the Clubshaft lengthwise..."
