Mind in the Hands
If the mind is supposed to be in your hands, what is it supposed to think about when it is there?  |

Sense the three Pressure Points in your hands (one on the left, and two on the right hand).
Monitor the Hand's relationship with the Plane Line and Body.
Always know where you Hands are, and it's relationship to everything else.
If you video yourself, and you look completely different to what you think you look, then you don't know where everything is in your stroke.

From the Gallery, there is a Ben Doyle video where he says that his eyes are on the ball guiding the clubhead blur to the inside part of the ball. While his mind's eye is always focused on the hands and returning them to the aiming point.
I think 'flat left wrist, bent right wrist' is a good thought for the hands. It would be cool to hear from some more of the senior members who actually have 5-0...I mean Educated Hands.

It's not just a good thought- it is the core of TGM. It's the Flying Wedges. |

"Lag"

The "lag", "resistance", "effective club weight" or "lag pressure" it encounters. Or should we say "mind in the lag"?

YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the " LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact.
"Sustain ( Yang/陽) the lag ( Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" ( 陰陽合一).
The " LAW" creates the " effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the " cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
" Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn.
Bend the shaft.
