How Do I Learn To Hit Down?

[12 piece bucket]

In fact, learning to Deliver inert Lag Pressure into Impact is one of the most unnatural act imaginable. It is why there are so few really good players. It is also why, in the first edition of TGM, Homer Kelley used ten descriptive terms and one analogy to spell out unmistakeably its sensation:

"The correct Clubhead Lag Pressure Feel is a deadweight -- a status quo -- a deliberate, unvarying 'steady as she goes'. An unrevoked, unreversed, stable, permanent inertia. Exactly like dragging a wet mop through Impact."

DEADWEIGHT - The unrelieved weight of a heavy, motionless mass
STATUS QUO - The existing condition or state of affairs.
DELIBERATE - by conscious design or purpose
UNVARYING - persistent in occurrence and unvarying in nature
STABLE - Resistant to change of position or condition; not easily moved or disturbed - Not subject to sudden or extreme change or fluctuation
PERMANENT - Lasting or remaining without essential change
INERTIA - The tendency of a body to resist acceleration; the tendency of a body at rest to remain at rest or of a body in straight line motion to stay in motion in a straight line unless acted on by an outside force.

dictionary.com didn't have the other terms???

As Mr. K tells us in 7-19 Lag Pressure Point "feel" is not only "Constant Loading" but also "Constant DIRECTION."

So Omnipotent Asparagus Colored Professor of Lag Pressure with sparkling clean freshly mopped floors . . .I pose a question on the MOP DRAGGING. . .

When dragging the ole MOP, the feeling of LAG PRESSURE in the Hands is an UNMISTAKEABLY STRONG SENSATION of PRESSURE. Also, the muscles in the BACK, RIGHT FOREARM, and THIGHS are very much ALIVE. As we drag the Mop back and then CHANGE DIRECTIONS the wet Mop Head resists the change and the PRESSURE POINTS are LOADED. Then this LOAD is "constantly" felt and its direction is also "constant."

Do you feel the SAME degree of LAG PRESSURE in your Hands when Swinging an actual club as with the mop exercise? Or is this an exaggerated feeling to Program the Computer to recognize and be sensitive to the all important LAG PRESSURE? So it is this CONSTANT LOAD and CONSTANT DIRECTION that result in a bent right wrist and flat left wrist, no?

Thank you . . . thank you . . . thank you.
