Is it fair to say that the pivot has an "active" role at the transition phase to "spin the fly wheel" and establish lag pressure ... but that once the fly wheel is spinning, the power pockage is now in orbit, the left arm swinging and sequential release of accumulators 4, 2 then 3 begins ( triple barrel)... and the pivot is then "passive". By "passive" i mean its motion is just enough to SUSTAIN lag pressure sensation in hands but not overly active to increase those pressures. By "active" i mean one can consciously place your mind in part of your pivot to encourage a correct motion but then as soon as lag sensation is established in PP3 then my mind jumps to my hands and the pivot is then purely responsive and sustaining that sensation. These are the thoughts that i have had recently -with lagging clubhead take-away i find my mind is in my pivot until "end" / transition phase when i get a massive awakening of pp3 sensation and the downswing occurs with mind in my hands... aware of the delivery line prep, delivery line uncocking prep, delivery line roll prep etc... ( love that video of Lynn doing this !!) I know these are feels and hence may be personal to me but just wondered if anybody else found that their backswing is essentially pivot controlled hands until lag pressure comes with a wallop and then hands control the pivot once the power package is spun in orbit by flywheel...? Comments?? Swing Thoughts don’t determine HCP or PCH. Think whatever you want. Or don’t. “It is fair to say…..” Describes Pivot Controlled Hands. If the Pivot contributes only motion, then the #3-accumulator roll is a hand manipulation. The passive pivot dictated that your hands must roll by themselves. Hip Action indicates Hands Controlled Pivot. The hands required that the pivot add the force needed to roll the #3 accumulator. HCP are the Hands saying to the Pivot “I’m only going to hold onto the club, like a clamp; I’ll guide it for you, but you (pivot)do all the work”.
