Another link in the chain!

Well, all rightee then!

First, I would look up each of the terms in the dictionary. Dwell on the intellectual concept of the totally inert Lag Pressure. Then, in drill, repeat (and sense) each word (or group of words) as you s-l-o-w-l-y drag a real wet mop -- not a dry mop and not a broom! -- through the Impact. That would be eleven 'drag-throughs'. Make sure you keep your Left Wrist Flat and your Right Wrist Bent throughout the exercise. Then one or two more 'drag-throughs' repeating (and sensing) the entire description. Do that every day for three weeks and, I promise you, your Motion through Impact will improve -- probably dramatically.
How many of you have actually done this? I had read about it...cited it...then one day I did it! I didn't actually drag a wet mop, but I did take several strands (5 X 3 ft.) of chain and attach them together then placed them over the end of the grip down to the head of an old club. You talk about heavy this or heavy that but only when you feel it does it make much sense...for me that is. Hitting a golf ball right after dragging the dry chains was almost surreal! You don't get it until you feel it.
