There is some great information here in this thread - Don't miss that Wedgy. Those of us that believe in lag have a reason. We have seen it, we feel it and we know it works. Whether or not the shaft deflects in that fashion is probably not a helpful fact to hitting a golf ball. Now I would like the forums opinion as to whether swingin a club head on a rope would produce a similar deflection or swinging a "Whippy" club. I would have a hard time believing my "whippy" club shaft deflects in that manner......and I don't care. Now looking at the ball "line of sight" does the club head or hands get to the ball first? Wedgy are you saying the clubhead get ahead of the hands and arrives simultanously or head of the ball. Does the clubhead move ahead and then bet behind in the milliseconds before impact. Wedgy consider how many successful strikers of the ball believe in lag. it is a priniciple right or wrong that works - just like TGM literalism works for me. Just as science can interfere with treating patients I feel it can interfere with understanding and performing good golf swings
