How does one monitor #3 pressure point as a means of distance control? I never notice any difference in the way PP#3 feels, regardless of the length of the shot I am making, so I assume that I am doing something wrong, or simply don't know what it is that I'm supposed to monitor. I hope that this question makes sense. Thanks for your help.

If you have Clubhead Feel, you have Clubhead Lag. That's because Clubhead Feel is Clubhead Lag.
Think of the Lag Pressure you feel during Start Down as a stone you are going to throw. How much pressure would you feel in your hand if you were going to throw a stone two feet? How about ten feet? How about 100 feet? In each case, there would be a definite difference in pressure, right? That is the same differentiating pressure you sense in a good Golf Stroke.
And remember, until well into the Downstroke in most Strokes, the Swinger's #3 Pressure Point is against the top of the Shaft and the first knuckle of the right hand forefinger, not against the back of the Shaft and against the 'meaty part' of the forefinger.
So, sense the pressure -- normal, light or heavy -- against the true #3 Pressure Point, and use it to control your distances.
