Re: The Feel Of The Clubhead Lag -- Word Games

'throwing' the club gives you clubhead lag, but not lag pressure

think of the flail, of cracking a whip - the proper sequence must be there

You CAN get the proper sequence by doing the 'club throwing' drill, it is a very useful drill, but you still need to add lag pressure to that equation. No doubt that a drag feel, the towel drill, is a wonderul way to feel this.

Heck, you can do this by simply taking a t-shirt or towel and swinging it - swing back WAIT for it to hit you (near the center of your shoulders/back), and DRAG through - let it hit you, again near 'center' - back and through, back and through - a great tempo trainer, as well as lag pressure

Learning the feel of lag pressure was the single best thing I have learned from TGM, with the possible exception of DOWN, down, down

feel those pressure points in your hands
