To the extent that you monitor the hands, and not the clubhead/face, I
consider the hands the rock. To the extent that the hands follow a more
'true' path than the club (a more 'on plane' string from the hands to the
swing center), I would consider the hands the rock.


It could be said that the pressure points represent the rock as well, yes.
The difference between throwing the rock, and a rock on a string.



I didn't say that "the mass at the end of the stick" (the Clubhead)
was the Rock. I said that the Clubhead Lag (Pressure) was the Rock.
And the Clubhead Lag is all about Monitoring the Hands and not the Club. As
you've implied, that Clubhead Lag Rock is assigned to a specific Pressure
Point in the Hands, typically the Right Forefinger.


I understand your concept, Ed, and that is why I responded to your comment
(to 6bee1dee's post loosely quoting me) "Gee, you mean that the Hands
are the rock." Simply said, that was not what was meant.
