That's my problem understanding lag pressure and its affect on ball flight distance. Each club needs a different level of forward shaft lean at impact (more for short irons). Therefore, for a given amount of forward clubshaft lean and a given clubhead speed at impact, wouldn't the amount of lag pressure experienced at impact be the same for different swinger-golfers who do not drive load the shaft? How could there be variations in the degree of loss of clubhead forward speed due to impact? How could different golfers have different levels of a "heavy hit" (whatever that means)?

Jeff.

Homer liked a "stock" amount of lag pressure . .. for consistency reasons I think. Hitters typically feel the load more due to the nature of the loading.

I'm not sure that there's a correlation of shaft lean to lag pressure . . . plus you may feel more pressure with longer clubs simply because they are longer. Bottom line you want to have a lag pressure that you can SUSTAIN and the PROPER amount of shaft lean for the shot you have selected and hopefully programmed at fix.
