Thanks Boss . . . credit due to you and to Mr. K.
I think the Endless Belt Concept is PURE genius . . . the other thing I left out was CONSTANT HAND SPEED and thus STRONG DELIBERATE AND HEAVY FEEL OF DRAGGING THE WET MOP DOWN DOWN DOWN PLANE.
HOWEVER . . . I think one thing we MUST keep in mind is the images or misconceptions that can be associated with the language that we use to describe things.
I think that if people have the impression that can Load the Pressure Points as much as they like (strong) then they may OVERLOAD them and not be able to take the Lag all the way DOWN because they can't SUSTAIN it. It is of course SUSTAIN the Lag not INCREASE it.
OVER ACCELERATION IS THE MENACE THAT STALKS ALL LAG AND DRAG!!!
Case in point. . . I'm playing and just kind of scraping it around on Thursday. On the last three holes I think . . . I'm just gonna Load #4 and let my left arm be a piece of rope . . . just relax Bucket. Bada Bing Bada BOOOOOM!!! Three drives over 290. Two right at 3 bills. AND I DON'T EVER HIT THE BALL THAT FAR!!! So I finish PAR BIRDIE BIRDIE.
I think that you really have to get intouch with your SENSITIVE side at least if you are a Swinger. Your hands will send you more a SUBTLE message . . . My main man Eddie Cox says it should be "Sensitivity Points" and not Pressure Points. You gotta get really in tune with your Hands and Monitor the very subtle message they send you if you are going to effectively manipulate CF. You don't have to DO ANYTHING much. CF will work for you . . . I promise!!! If it can keep the Earth in its orbit . . . surely it can bust the cover off a golf ball for you.

Allowing CF to do it's thing is the most unnerving feeling if you aren't used to it; it feels like you're not in control of the swing. You're just along for the ride. This is probably why Homer said you can sleep and swing. Assuming you have all of your pre-swing alignments in order, you just kind of get the ball rolling. CF does the rest. Control freaks, beware.

I can assure you that CF does NOT keep Earth in its orbit around the Sun! sky72
4-D-1 Says it all . . . the best way to wreck the 1st Imperative . . .
Driving the Clubhead toward the Green (Steering), instead of toward the Ball (2-P), is the great disrupter of the Flat Left Wrist.
I think that any focus on the clubhead and movement, is probably one of the major reasons for poor golf shots.
Homer was't the first to recognize this, his concept of 'educated hands' coupled with several other TGM principles are all pointed at 'stop trying to position the clubhead', 'stop swinging the clubhead', etc.
Thrust is always down and out, the forward direction is a function of pivot(including shoulder turn).
The Axe Handle and Rope Handle IMO really sums it up. Put that on the Inclined Plane and what do have? A golf stroke?
Although the focus may be on the ball or a point in front or behind the ball, Thrust must always be through, past the point of focus, this includes if one is attempting to drive to the hands location.

Absolutely - I often find it quite helpful to focus on a spot on the ground well ahead of the ball and try to send my hands 'through' their impact location - DOWN to that spot. Especially helpful for the short irons.
