When I stopped trying to keep the clubhead behind everything and started trying to keep the grip in front of everything, my game changed forever.

Ted, could you further expand on this quote, I have been concentrating on dragging the clubhead through impact. Should my focus be more on the grip end??[/quote]

I was under the impression for a long time that I had to 'keep' the clubhead from passing my hands. It made me 'keep' my right arm bent (accumulator lag) too long. I always felt the need to hold everything back. The epiphany came when I realized that the clubhead didn't want to go forward (law of inertia). Everyone had always told me about "clubhead" lag, but I heard new terminology: lag "pressure". I realized that PRESSURE against the handle being greater than that of the momentum of the clubhead would keep the handle winning the race to the ball.
Pulling with centripetal force or pushing with muscular drive can create lag pressure. Because hitters load the pressure on the back of the shaft at top, we have the luxury of carrying that lag pressure (felt in the #3 pressure point) from top through impact. The swinger, on the other hand, loads the pressure on top of the shaft. When using a snap release, the #3 pressure point rotates very late to a position that's behind the shaft.
Other terminology that I hate to hear is "clubhead speed." I'd rather be able to measure someone's "hand speed."
