An Ode to lag pressure

[12 piece bucket]

Thanks Bucket

I know what you mean about the degree of force he describes... i think that you should only load as much lag as your pivot ( for swingers) is able to sustain.

But like most golfers who have never experienced much lag pressure... you sometimes need to turn the volume up for them to hear the message ( i bet Percy's amp "goes up to 11... " have you have seen "This is Spinal Tap" .... classic line from classic film)... and then when they can hear it... just turn the volume down to a useable/sustainable amount.

The problem with the basic motion curriculum is that your lag pressure in 2 feet back ... 2 feet forward is just too quiet for new TGM people to hear ( at least it was for me!!)... the float loading of a chip -pitch ( like Ben Doyle and others use) allows a little more volume so us deaf-folk can hear it! Lag pressure comes on with greater force and quicker ! Ie form no lag pressure to loads of pressure... then you can hear it!! You can't sustain something you can not hear... but equally most weak pivots can't sustain too much lag...maybe

Did Homer ever discuss the chip=pitch with Ben? Is it on any of Lynn's recordings? I'm sure it would have been discussed between them at some stage... just did not seem to make it into the book as part of basic motion curriculum. I guess because it is actually a form of acquired (ie you have acquired accumulator 2 a bit...)

I can see your point . . . and maybe the next step from there would be to turn down the volume a bit with some Basic Motions. Lag is there too more than just a Careless Whisper but not no Megadeath ever.

Try them Basic Motions with your eyes shut . . . Hell I hit full shots in my net with my eyes shut. Your hands speak a beautiful language if you tune in and learn it.
