See 2-P where Mr. Kelley writes:
Spot on . If only Homer added the word 'Angular' in front of Speed, it would've saved me a few brain cells!

Here's a bit of trivia for you guys. In the Endless Belt Effect model shown in 2-K#6, is Clubhead Speed increasing (i.e. accelerating) during the curved portion of the belt as it goes round the pulley (labelled as Radial Travel on diagram)?
